But also, isn’t the reason these WoW Tokens are low is because people are trading their in-game gold for it instead of actually paying $90 cash??

I’ve only seen the first episode, but so far I’m on board. The character animation is… Not great, and there was one scene I would swear they just dumped in a bunch of premade animation loops. However, the suits look awesome and the fights are interesting. Anytime a Zaku punts a tank I cheer, and the way the Gundam is portrayed was perfect.

I will never understand people who think this movie isn’t funny - endlessly quotable:

“That’s a lot of nuts!” “You should be able to beat him now!” “Beware his song about big butts, he beats you up while he plays it!”

I could go on. In a just world he would have gotten to make more films, and not just thumb parody movies.

Yeah - I don’t want to be too dismissive. I’ve read interviews with him, and despite his success, he hasn’t measurably changed his lifestyle or fallen into the traps a big influx of money can cause. It honestly reminds me of No Man’s Sky (minus the redempetion arc) where enough money was made from the base product that it funds ongoing development for the forseeable future.

I mean this is great, props… But didn’t he already make his nut with this game?? I mean I can play it on my fucking Tesla, I assume he got paid.

For a while streamers were doing this thing where they would renew a show for Season 2 before the Season 1 pilot even released. I guess it was a way to project confidence to the audience?? Or maybe just to get the production pipeline moving so there wouldn’t be 2+ years in between season releases.

Anyway, they did that with Halo…

You sure?? This Embracer Group seems like some smart young men, and they make a compelling offer. Can I at least sell them a beloved fantasy classic?? As a treat?

No, any business major could tell you they release the game, then lay everyone off and sell the IP for parts!

Yeah, though they had mythologized it so much, they probably would have continued searching!

And it was written that no hand but his should wield the Sword held in the Stone, but he did draw it out, like fire in his hand, and his glory did burn the world. Thus did it begin. Thus do we sing his Rebirth. Thus do we sing the beginning.

Back in 2000 I had no idea they were basically just speed running 10 years of OG Gundam stories. I also didn’t know that the things the characters said didn’t make any sense, I just assumed I was too dumb to get it.

The second half especially is a complete mess, but the power of nostalgia makes it a beautiful mess.

I damned those bugs myself with a combo of napalm, flamethrower, and incendiary breaker.

But in all seriousness there are some huge bugs that can ruin a run you spent almost 40 minutes on… So I also bring a 500kg to deal with those.

Whether or not the game needs this anti-cheat feature, players are still finding ways to give other players huge amounts of Samples (a grindable resource with limited amounts included in each mission) and spawn in unreleased equipment and stratagems.

So clearly the GameGuard isn’t as useful as it could be.

Even these middle-aged hack frauds can’t deny that Andor is real good!

As someone who bought a new Tesla in February, this is very much true - I’m certainly never going to pay 18-goddamn-thousand dollars for it. I just did my first road trip in the new car and wasn’t inclined to spend $200 to try it out. Traffic-Aware Cruise Control was more than suitable.

When they wanted $5k for it, I could imagine the value proposition (though I’d never spend that much), but the current price point is outrageous.

Not sure about this guys - not even Overwatch wants to be Overwatch right now…

MS Igloo? Is that you??

What I really need is that red urbie. Three times faster than a normal urbie… So it can move slightly faster than a geriatric driver circling a parking lot.

From what I understand, it does not get kernel access on Linux. That’s why the game wouldn’t run the first couple of days. After they patched it, it just makes a web call and lets you play the game.

BG3 was in development for 6 years, had a huge budget, and a development studio with experience making RPGs.

You can’t expect a small, indie studio to match that when they’ve only had… Jesus 9 YEARS!!!
