Yes. Since nobody else seems to want to answer. Also, they waive the Unreal Engine revenue share from sales on the Epic Store.
I appreciate Epics pro developer stance, but the need a better consumer experience and innovation in that space if they want to be serious about the store.
Valve has spen’t much of the last 25 years pushing the industry forwards in distribution. That’s why there’s so much loyalty to them.
I had one for 10 years and the only thing that broke was the keyboard tray because I put a lot of pressure on it with my feet. I still have the filling cabinet that came with it after 21 years.
“It’s so hard to get movies made, and in these big movies that get made — and it’s even starting to happen with the little ones, which is what’s really freaking me out — decisions are being made by committees, and art does not do well when it’s made by committee,” she added. “Films are made by a filmmaker and a...
Starting by saying, I haven’t seen this movie so this is an outsiders opinion.
This appears to be completely different than your standard super hero fatigue. Some movies are just bad.
That said, the Groots things you’re expressing aren’t new. Action movies have always had dumb plots filmed with one liners all over. The feelings you’re expressing is that Super Hero movies are just also action movies. Personally, I find them more engaging and entertaining than non-super hero action movies specifically because they aren’t trying to be realistic but also have a continuity that I enjoy. That’s not a general populace thing. That’s a specific reason I enjoy them.
The minions complaint is just super weird, though. Those movies are tailored to kids. Literally zero adults should be taking them as more than a kids movie.
This is a hot take if I’ve ever seen one. I may disagree with this particular action but supporting companies that make games I want to play and are demonstrably fun is never morally wrong.
The New York Times is one of the newspapers of record for the United States. However, it’s history of running stories with poor sourcing, insufficient evidence, and finding journalists with conflicts of interest undermines it’s credibility when reporting on international issues and matters of foreign policy....
The core of your argument seems to be 2 separate incidents that are 20 years apart. The WMD article series is one of many series that were released by different outlets at the time because the Whitehouse did make such claims.
I don’t know enough about the most recent article to form a serious opinion, but I did read the intercept link you posted and it appears to be entirely sourced by an interview with somebody who was fired for expressing bias outside of work. I also clicked the democracy now link and its just a paragraph stating that the intercept wrote the article in the first link but doesn’t provide anything else.
I’m not sure these two incidents are enough of an indictment against the NYT to sway me at all. News outlets get it wrong sometimes. The question is how they handle it afterwards and 2 incidents in 20 years is hardly a pattern. The NYT is definitely leaning slightly left but is generally considered to be highly factual by most fact checkers that I’ve seen.
I’m genuinely not sure what you’re hoping to accomplish with that argument.
The fact checkers call them on that stuff, yes. The reliability ratings are based partially on how the editors react when they get it wrong and the NYT pretty famously apologizes and publishes updates when it happens.
He’s definitely worth a ton. Estimates at $150m which will be almost entirely from residuals on Aerosmith music. But he’s also a registered Republican.
It’s a class warfare anthem, yes. But it’s sung by somebody who actively and openly supports the party that is most egregiously anti-working class right now.
It’s most likely that 30 years ago he wasn’t as well off as he is now and has had a change of heart in his older age. My point is that he likely doesn’t fully agree with the messaging anymore as he is in fact now quietly rich and voting against the poor.
My whole dev group uses Linux and Teams is a hot mess for us. We have to run the PWA through Chrome to get things to work and even then it’s hit or miss.
Considering when I clicked the link the result is an error about a database lock in SQLite on a blog, I’m not sure this opinion is coming from a wise and experienced developer.
I’ll preface this by saying that in no way do I expect that ES6 will shine more than Starfield and nothing I’m about to say should be construed as such.
I personally think that Starfield isn’t a good representation of what modern Bethesda will do with ES6. Starfield is the first time any of the major players had been involved in a totally new IP.
Skyrim was mechanically good enough, but it was only interesting because it was built in a world that was already rich with lore. It built upon a strong foundation of interesting concepts, conflict, and history to move a timeline forward and on top of that allowed for modders to easily expand it further.
Fallout 3 and 4 followed the same formula as Skyrim. Build a mechanically good enough game built on a rich world and allow modders to expand it.
Fallout 76 was the first departure from building on what was already there and it was a disaster because it wasn’t mechanically good enough.
Starfield is a new departure by making something that’s mechanically good enough but also needing to build a whole universe from scratch which left it feeling dull for many.
ES6 represents an opportunity for Bethesda to go back to the formula that worked for them until now. There is a big risk that they will further streamline the gameplay making it less deep as they have done with every generation, but it’s not a guarantee at this point in time.
