Why did you say "garbage" four times in a row? rimshot, obnoxious canned laughter

Fools and their money.

 

tl;dr: SAG-AFTRA is voting on whether or not to strike against video game companies, with ten major publishers being named in the article

  • Activision Productions Inc.,
  • Blindlight LLC,
  • Disney Character Voices Inc.,
  • Electronic Arts Productions Inc.,
  • Epic Games, Inc.,
  • Formosa Interactive LLC,
  • Insomniac Games Inc.,
  • Take 2 Productions Inc.,
  • VoiceWorks Productions Inc., and
  • WB Games Inc.

(also, I would've thought that the Disney and WB ones would be kind of "rolled in" to the ongoing strike)

Yeah, not a developer or otherwise someone who works in the gaming industry at all, but a deal like that would definitely remind me about what mom always said about deals that sound too good to be true.

The higher the pedestal you put somebody on, the further they have to fall.

ah shit here we go again.png

Between this bullshit and what seems like every Triple-Eh publisher suddenly developing massive diamond-hard boners for Denuvo (you're welcome), it's almost enough to make me want to go full Console Peasant. almost.

Mostly because it looks good for the suits and investors, and since it doesn't actually seem to hurt their sales that much (hint hint)

Just one more reason why the obsession with the latest greatest OMGWTF HIGH DEFINITION GRAPHICS is the worst thing to happen to gaming since the Atari Jaguar.

The point is punishing the people who pay money for this sh*t, apparently (and they will, because for everybody who refuses to buy something that comes with malware bundled in there will be at least two screaming "SHUT UP AND TAKE OUR MONEY!")

Honestly, that's pretty much the major highlight of the expansion for me as well is having more dye channels.

To be "fair", given that for better or worse it's an Always Online game, it's easier to just say "NO MODS ALLOWED, END OF STORY" than to deal with the hassle of strictly defining what is and isn't kosher and dealing with the inevitable rules lawyering from people trying to argue how THEIR MOD is special and doesn't break the rules.

But yeah, f*ck ActiBliz

Bold of you to assume that that isn't the better therapist

 

The article's title is slightly misleading in that the overheating and crashing is happening in graphics mode
