I believe it’s an ad delivery service app developers can deploy in their app to earn revenue from ads delivered to users.

In a way he is being very patriotic as he is helping fight for change in his country’s leadership

Hope this trend continues to strengthen over the next few years!

I do wonder how Microsoft buying up basically the entirety of the western game dev world will influence this in the future though

This is pretty incredible! I hope more industries adopt this mindset and begin to find ways to combat climate change. It’s going to take all industries exerting this level of change!

Hello from kbin.social 👋

Currently juggling Enshrouded, Frostpunk, and Remnant 2. Enjoying all of them for very different reasons.

It’s pretty unusual for me since I don’t have as much time to enjoy games as I used to and I tend to remain pretty focused on a single title on my list at a time.

Maybe capitalists instead of economists? 😂

I’ve seen lots of comments about Microsoft engaging in an acquisition war with Sony but isn’t it really against TenCent?

I am enjoying it so far! The combat is enjoyable, building is robust and the world does call to you for exploration.

Progress is server wide which is strange. My completing a quest completes it for all other players so you probably want to play on a private server.

It definitely has space to improve but I think the devs have a solid foundation here to build something quite enjoyable.

Thanks for the rec, I’ll check it out

Exactly. They won’t do it now while their Activision/Blizzard acquisition is under scrutiny but they could easily adopt a new strategy in a few years that restricts purchases through stores Microsoft controls

I do find it interesting how far ahead of its time the GameCube controller is though. It was almost a precursor for mobile button layout with the large A and other buttons around it in a non-traditional form/layout. That’s what immediately came to mind when seeing the controller layouts.

I’m not a huge fan of cloud gaming but Netflix may be on to something here by having games be added value to a sub rather than a discrete service with a separate sub. Plus from my experience, it’s not like the apps are streamed to your device but are available for download with an active sub.

Totally agree! I remember being shuttled to the demo XBox by a GameStop employee who was fawning over the first Halo and I was not impressed having just finished Half Life 2

Oh you’re right, totally missed that

Yup, looks like an interesting experience. Watching the gameplay totally reminded me of FEAR, glad it’s not just me

I do wish that the up arrow and boost functionality would be reworked. Have up arrow actually be an upvote (the same as boost is now) and replace boost with a favorite function that would store the thread/comment in your profile so you can easily find it again

I ended up getting New World since it’s the lowest price I’ve seen. I’m also hoping that the game has improved since launch. Going to keep browsing this thread to see what other deals people share!

Yup, leave it to Fox Business to convey skewed information in a manner that elicits engagement through enragement

What state do you live in?

I know I’m doing good WHEN I get served this kind of content. I don’t browse YT logged in, my browser always deletes cookies upon closure, and I run Ghostery/add block plugins.

Living in Texas, I kinda assume that is why I constantly get this right wing content (ads, vid recommendations). I figure my location is all they know about me and so that is why I get served this content.

It just tells me they don’t know anything about me so my countermeasures are working 🤞🏼
