well I think I see the problem sir
you wanna benefit from an ever increasing customer base in an evergreen ecosystem, without being willing to deal with any of the potential difficulties (many of which you are electing to present as bigger than they are) that stem from the mechanisms that have made that ecosystem reach such a huge customer base and that have made the titles on it stay evergreen in the first place.
The cure is to exercise the simple logical reasoning of considering:
That that customer base is choosing a platform with a higher friction of entry for a reason.
That your older titles keep selling on it, even while being significantly outdated in terms of support for newer systems and options by default, for a reason
That if the problem was so severe so as to merit acting on it, a significant issue would have presented itself at some point in the decades that the ecosystem has been functioning in this manner.
I also suggest remembering that you own the source material that you can refer to at any point to prove that any potential issue is not your doing.
For prevention of this ailment in the future, I recommend staying away from meeting rooms in which decisions are made by powerpoint, especially if you hear buzzwords such as "brand-risk". Risk of contagion increases in environments in which all individuals have never executed a PC game and/or in which the average age is over 50.
Oh it's no problem, you are welcome. My fee will be the PC VR mode for Resident Evil 7 that you never bothered to implement and only exists thanks to a modder. Maybe next time I'll open some support tickets to ask about that since you seem to be concerned about those so much.
Thinking about it, maybe I should also ask where your randomizer modes are since you are trying to brick them. And the removal of the piss filter for RE5 that makes that game tolerable to the eyes, surely nobody would release that without an option to remove it right? Oh dangit proper widescreen support for the older titles, that's another couple support tickets, oh and while we are at it also...
I'm gonna need a notepad.
Really nice news, both from the perspective of making new non-SteamDeck portable devices more appealing as well as from the perspective of standardizing Linux-based gaming setups further
If there was a significant amount of resin inside the printer (which I have to assume since you report strong smell), your boss is either a negligent asshole or somebody irresponsibly ignorant.
And if the printer was working and actively printing something inside an enclosed unventilated environment, then your boss can't be trusted with crayons or scissors.
But Obsidian launched a campaign for Pillars of Eternity on Kickstarter a mere 3 years after the creation of the platform. As soon as they could, they did.
There is a 6 year gulf between the point that Sawyer mentions and the creation of Kickstarter during which that option was simply not available.
I love the competitive scene of this game, it has such an uncommon mix of players from all ages, backgrounds and vibes. And even if you are not familiar with the game at the beginning, the historical setting makes it easier to understand it and get into it ... You don't need to know exactly what a castle does in the game to know that having a castle built near you is a bad thing and stuff like that.
Also because of how the gameflow works, comebacks from near death are so common.
To this day the most unable I've ever been to put down a game. I think I beat it in two days that were fully dedicated to it, even while eating. It's a drug and each hit is a Memento-tier reveal or twist.
The most baffling and frustrating thing was that they saw the negative reception to the concept during the initial reveal... And their response was to sink even more time into it for polish. So sad to see.
The people that made the decision to steer Naughty Dog away from Factions will be able to point to this title before negotiating their next salary raise.
oh yeah, psvr1 was my entry headset and it was decent, but I don't know, that's another very closed environment. It's also really unclear how truly on board Sony is with VR at the moment...
it's so frustrating, I don't understand how they are unable to do the kindergarten 1+1 logical reasoning that if there's a somewhat similar question and the person still goes through the effort of posting a new one, it's likely because the old question is insuficient in one way or another.
Gelsinger was clearly waiting until I sold my shares for a measly profit before revealing his memes were not memes --
but seriously now this is really good news we need as many options for stupidly advanced nodes as we can get, we got a taste of what happens when there's only one great choice in the block during covid and I don't wanna see that ever again
oh my god
