A dealership (or that's how it works here) is obligated to sell x amount of cars (usually same brand or at least same group). They will just be sent the cars whether they sell them or not. So in a worst case scenario the franchise ends up with shitty cars no one wants and has to dump them on the market for shit prices.
The result is often that cost of maintaining a vehicle at a dealership is through the roof because they don't have a healthy margin on new cars (or even lose money on them).
They also have very idiotic requirements at times to even become a dealer. Although supposedly they have loosened requirements and rules since no one wanted to be a dealership anymore here.
Don't expect a 2025 game in terms of mechanics and level design. For it's time Oblivion was a very good game. This is a polished version of the original with updated graphics and somewhat modernised combat and movement. They ironed out a lot of clunky mechanics and bugs too.
As far as remasters go the GTA ones were absolute dogwater just like warcraft 3 remastered. This one is very good and imo comparable with the command and conquer remasters.
I dont think they could have done much more without making the game completely different.
Seeing how things went the past 10 years i think people will have forgotten about musk by August and then the tesla shares and sale will rise to unforseen heights.
Yeah that's probably it. I remember the scaling being awful if you didn't spend all points perfectly each level. They must have fixed it since i don't seen anyone complaining about it.
I'll check some videos this weekend when there is more known about it. I'm looking forward to playing it again though.
So did they fix the magic system? One of my biggest problems with the original was that magic was near pointless. After like 30 levels magic felt like throwing rocks at a tank.
When a regular person makes something available that shouldnt be behind a paywall to begin with it's stealing. When a billionaire or company uses ai to gather data from paid sources or just straight out plagiarises it's just maximising profits.
The problem with Matrix to me is that it is simply too unstable. I can open it up on any device and half the messages won't load or are corrupted. Media won't show at all. In contrast Lemmy has been super reliable and "just works", so going from reddit to lemmy was no problem at all. And the communities are great too.
I just want working voice chat and group chats.
The entire streaming i don't really care about. There are other apps for that.
But yeah as it is I'm probably better off using discord until the enshittification is so bad no one wants to use it anymore.
I've already settled on making lemmy my new home a long while ago. I like it here and there is more than enough engagement.
What i can't really find an alternative for is discord... it's going through the "enshittification fascism techbro" phase.
I tried matrix but honestly it sucks, Its so incredibly buggy it's barely even usable. I'm still willing to give it a try since it seems very promising but the instability is a big downside.
There were some okay boards like /a/ and /vg/. The rest was pure trash. I used to play warframe and world of tanks and /vg/ had a pretty decent thread (but that was like 10? Years ago) where you could find other players and discuss builds.
/a/ was okay but as soon as reddit (which i stopped using too) had a decent anime community i left from that too since it was mostly shitposting.
Unironically /g/ sometimes had some good threads for recommending used laptops.
The past 5? years I barely visited it since every single board became a breeding ground for hate speech, trolling and shitposting. I checked time to time if things became better but nope. I decided it was better to just check reddit (and now lemmy) communities that highlighted the funny posts.
There isn't really a place where you can post anonymously like 4chan though. Although they didn't allow VPNs since a few years so it's not totally anonymous anyway....
