Ubisoft lost it after AC Brotherhood.

Just ignore the “triple A” industry and games are usually great. Lots of small passionate studios still pumping out quality stuff.

There’s no such thing. It’s just milking people who are crazy enough to fall into the trap of buying them.
$30 is not a microtransaction, thats a macrotransaction, thats an entire other video game.

Free to play doesnt give a game a pass on predatory business tactics, they are free to play for one reason only… to sell you worthless pixels for ridiculous prices. F2P games are designed for that purpose and that purpose only.

But I agree that any paid game should have zero MTX, cosmetic or not. Industry is killing its creative aspect with all this monetisation shit.

Plausible!

I am sorry.

It’s almost like if people understand why someone is doing something, they don’t judge them! Maybe people should just stop judging people if they don’t understand them!

Its not that deep my guy, its a meme post.

BUT, lets engage your theory, why would they quit and not be fired if they were truly slacking off???

This was probably more the cashiers got shouted at for talking to their boyfriends for a couple minutes when they came in.

People keep reading their tweets and clicking on the articles.

What’s new and advanced about this? Hasn’t it all already existed in some form? It’s just been Apple-ified, no? It’s just a VR headset, an actual AR headset is something like HoloLens.

Beyond the tech, who is even the target audience for this? I only see it as a gimmick, one for just Apple geeks to buy. One of the reasons 3DTV’s failed is because nobody wanted to wear the glasses, so why would anyone want to strap this to their face just to do something they already do or could do on their TV/computer/phone?

You can already pretty much do everything this can with an existing VR headset in one way or another, for a lot cheaper.
It’s a bizzare product.

Dragons are much cooler than Wyverns, why do they keep getting dunked on like this :(

Just pause updates

Yup, the design for Firefox’s logo is just a million times better than reddit’s, simplification arguments aside. FF just did a much better job.

Completely ignoring Chrome’s success is off the back of it being advertised on the world’s most popular website since it’s release, then yeah.

They always pick fab artists for their sales honestly!

You should not breathe the air from sewage pipes. You’d have to be at the end of your options to do this, if there’s a fire and you can’t leave the room via the door or window, you would want to cover the door with clothes/towels whatever to slow the ingress of smoke and open/smash the window calling for help. You should be crawling around if the room is filling with smoke, keep low to the floor as that’s where the cleaner air is, the sewage pipe is not cleaner air.

This hurts my eyes to look at

People like Xbox would show off more games, from smaller devs, you can do a lot more in 3 days than you can in 3 hours. It was sad when they pulled out, that was the writing on the wall for E3, but its not even comparable to the game awards lmao, which is literally just a 3 hour ad break.

No, the players choose the player’s choice winner and contribute only 10% towards the actual winners.

The games are nominated by a committee, the committee of ‘game news organisations’ is chosen by the ‘advisory board’ of the game awards, the board consists of Activision Blizzard, Ubisoft, EA, Sony, Microsoft, Valve, Nintendo, Tencent, AMD, Riot Games, Rockstar Games, Epic Games and for some reason Kojima Productions. So they have the choice to pick their favourable ‘news’ outlets, which in turn will pick the nominees and the winners of the awards. There’s a lot of room for bullshittery to happen and with some past winners/nominees, I wouldn’t doubt there has been.
