As a popular example, IMHO FFVII wouldn't have been half the game it became without its soundtrack.

Phase 4: Fucking do it again

I saw this with a different picture attached to it some time ago, so I Assume it's either fake or bait.

Rockstar Games, a division of Take-Two Interactive Software Inc., will ask employees to return to the office five days a week beginning in April as the video-game maker enters the final stages of development on its next game, the hotly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI.

In an email to staff on Wednesday reviewed by Bloomberg, Rockstar Head of Publishing Jenn Kolbe said the decision was made for productivity and security reasons. The company has faced several security breaches including a massive dump of early footage from the new Grand Theft Auto and an early trailer that leaked in December.

Kolbe wrote that the company also found “tangible benefits” from in-person work. “Making these changes now puts us in the best position to deliver the next Grand Theft Auto at the level of quality and polish we know it requires, along with a publishing roadmap that matches the scale and ambition of the game,” she wrote.

Return-to-office mandates have been a hot topic across various industries since the pandemic forced myriad employees to work from home. More recently, many employers have asked staff to return to the office for two or three days a week. A study last month found that remote work did not have an impact on productivity.

The issue has been particularly controversial among video-game workers thanks to the volatility of the industry and its lack of a centralized workforce. Many of 2023’s biggest video-game hits, such as Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 from Insomniac Games, were developed remotely.

Someone used a script to delete all their messages and swapped them with that text.

And if there ever was a dark age for PC hardware, we’ve recently crawled out of it, thankfully.

With high-end GPUs costing what they still cost, I don't think we're out of it just yet.

I had a similar experience. Doom was pure shooting fun, while the platforming component they introduced in Eternal altered the essence too much for me. I finished Doom in a very short time but I never finished Eternal.

At least you can use things like NewPipe, or FreeTube (for now).

Still too expensive.

If only

She (and other reviewers too ) should post a follow-up, it's the right thing to do IMHO. She's being called shill among other things in the comments although it's obvious she didn't know.

Hands made for spanking.

Some small indie studios would become AA studios and some new small indie studios would appear, so it's ok. At least for some time the industry would partially heal.

My ex. 10 years down the drain, and the worst part is I knew it was almost impossible to make it work. But I had to try anyway.

Who didn’t this coming?

Mastodon's CEO, apparently.

Does this mean the Deck is struggling in Japan? I read it was doing well, but I couldn't find accurate numbers.

In fact, I may even try out GamePass if it worked on Linux.

It kind of does, at least its xCloud part.

I played it at launch and stopped due to bugs and performance. Tried again a year and a half later but sadly the game didn't catch me.

An old friend used to say "real life is like GTA but with better graphics".

Of all the examples they could have given LMAO

I took that for granted, It's Nintendo and they had several years of advantage.

Really hyped for this one, hope it doesn't disappoint.

So the reply was for the original context I guess.

Or maybe not, Lemmy and Kbin were definitely a thing 5 months ago, when the reply was sent.

Sigurd Felix Wolfgang Atreides could be if you split it among like, two kids instead of one.

Or you can have 4 kids and then glue them together.

Edit: typo.

If PSN account linking was the reason for delisting, since it's not going to happen anymore, I'd say those countries will be able to play it once again.

There would be no logical reason to keep them delisted, unless they plan to force players to link their accounts later in the future when everyone's forgotten about this. I wouldn't discard this possibility completely.

I think Persona 4: Golden is a good entry point into the franchise.

As a huge Gris fan, this is one of the few games I still await with excitement.

I watched a bit last nigh, I'll keep watching it later today, enjoying it a lot so far. I love these DF Retro videos, they keep bringing good memories while giving me new knowledge.

I got Copy of Maniac Mansion for NES for free at a second hand games store . According to the store owner the game didn't work and asked me if I wanted it because the box still looks good in a shelf anyway. I put it in my NES and it worked without issues. This was around 10-12 years ago.

Edit: Typo.

I think it depends on the community.

I started using EndeavourOS in 2022 and used it for around a year, then hopped to OpenSUSE Tumbleweed to give something else a try (why is distro hopping enjoyable? it should be a nightmare). After a few months I came back to Endeavour, it feels snappier and has some software I wasn't able to find so easily on Tubleweed (I think PopcornTime was one of them). I think Endeavour is the best way to experience Arch for the first time if you don't want too many headaches.

If it's anything like the first part, it won't have Denuvo. Besides, I still refuse to pay 70-80€ for a new game, especially in digital format.

I buy indie and some AA almost exclusively nowadays, they're usually the better games anyway.

Was it really 500 at launch? Seems a bit too expensive for Nintendo.
