Thanks for pointing that out, it is Discovery's decision. For their part though, Sony is still at fault as they didn't demand perpetual use rights for content sold on their store, or at least a full refund for the customer.

Some members of the staff also felt their compensation was better than they might otherwise have earned in India, the defense argued.
Is this a real lawyer? They clearly have no legal case. I hope the book gets thrown at them.
It looks like the biggest culprit is poor or non existent lod's on the models. Strikes me as odd though as that's a pretty basic art requirement for a game like this. I don't see how this took them by suprise.
I guess the good news is that's it's easily fixable. It's not like ksp2 which looks like it has some pretty unsolvable core issues.
And shame on business insider to down play it as someone complaining they're not 'cute' enough.
They're massive for a start. Police have something like 60% Union membership. Compare that IT and service industries which are in the area of 3-6%. That gives them serious clout for lobbying legislation and anything else.
Unions are effective. Sadly this one i just happens to be working for a rotten gang.
Link?
The reputation damage has been pretty bad for Reddit in my view. They've handled things really badly and in the process lost a lot of good will and positive sentiment to their brand. They had good will by the bucket load, that Meta and Microsoft would kill for, and have spent a lot of it in return for very little.
All they had to do was a quick 'sorry, we have listened', act like they're addressing some of the concerns and everyone walks away looking good.
Unity is a game engine and a bunch of ancillary services, analytics and tracking and what not. It's been free to use and publish games with as long as your company revenue was under a certain amount. Over that amount and you'd have to buy a license for I think about $1600 a year.
The brouhaha was because they changed their income model to charge people/companies who create their game using the unity engine to make games on a per install basis. Up to 20cents per install of your game ( but only if your revenue was over $200k AND installs was over 200k, raising to $1m AND 1m installs with the unity pro license) .
The changes would take place next January leaving developers with very little time to make any changes to their revenue model. Unity (the company) also changed the terms of use of Unity (the game engine software) so that it was retroactive across all previous versions of unity, ie. If you didn't like the new terms you couldn't just carry on using an older version of it.
If you were being charitable you'd call it a clumsy launch or even ill considered. But it went down like a bucket of cold sick with the game dev' community who viewed it like a greedy shakedown.
This is not gonna be the vote winner they think it is. And fuck them for trying.
You put that into words perfectly. I think it's the only game that proscribes an emotion so successfully through a gameplay mechanic. It's the most real, raw and visceral sense of loss I've ever felt in a game, film or book. Truly unique.
This article covers a bit of the background.
The processor in 3 is a pretty sizeable improvement over 2. A quick and dirty a/b test I did found frames rendered in 13ms on q2 would render in 9-10ms on q3, so that's a good 20 - 30% faster, even though it's rendering a lot more pixels.
I think the important bit for meta though is making sure their range of headsets all have decent passthrough. No one is going to develop MR apps, and it'll never take off, unless the whole user base can use them.
Personally I'd take the better lenses and resolution of the q3 over better passthrough though.
Amen.
It took the world decades to catch up with her views on the harm of Catholicism in Ireland.
She was painted as some kind of crazy lady, and she probably was, but she was bang on and had the balls to say it out loud. Total hero.
I thought it was very moving. Psychosis simulator.
Enter the Gungeon is a steal at that price. And so is West of Dead.
This whole situation makes a lot more sense now. Thanks.
The first one did a really good job of having an interesting range of guns and abilities which were very well balanced. There was no 'best gear'. I'm sure they're able to have things worth buying that don't give you an unfair advantage over people who haven't. It's a morally hazardous area though.
Her cell line has been instrumental in tens of thousands of medical patents. Why shouldn't they be compensated?
Swappable batteries and gyro controls. Good stuff.
Huh, you're right. I must've caught a misleading headline then.
I'm not sure why they they threw that in... that's not really a problem as far as I'm aware. Maybe they consider it a gateway to gambling?
Slap City is a brilliant super smash style brawler. I play it couch coop a lot, it's always a blast. Very well made.
And if you upgrade to an annual 1600 dollar pro license that becomes a million dollars and a million installs before any per install pricing comes in.
Doesn't seem wild to me.
I was really in two minds about deleting my comment history. I decided not to. Some of it is the kind of stuff that might just help me in a few years when I've forgotten my previous solutions and Google them all over again.
In vr please.
Technical artist for real-time. Mainly vr. 9/10. I think it's the most interesting job in the world, where art and tech meet, my two favourite things. Plus I get to work from home on cool stuff, and the turnover of new projects several times a year keeps it fresh. I think the worst part of the job is that it's a bit niche so you can't really talk about your work with anyone out of the industry. There's no frame of reference. My friends and family don't really know what I do.
The feedback loop is positive? I've not read that anywhere, are you sure? There's a number of tipping points, some which we may have passed already but I don't think there are any beyond the ability of mankind to counter by simply reducing emissions. Seeing as we're the greatest contributor to greenhouse gases by a mile.
200m is chicken feed. Why does this get an announcement?
Do you mind? I'm trying to be righteously infuriated over here.
