It definitely will be interesting, considering they are working against their strengths.

It’s not an open world, it’s going to depend heavily on their world building and story writers, it’s going to be an offline linear experience, it’s going to be released as a finished product and not as “oh, this is a work in progress, we’ll continue to work on the flaws”…

Delaying for more money is probably the smarter thing they can do,

I was paying my respects.

Oh shit, son!

Specially when Borderlands releases have historically dropped down to less than a quarter of that after a short while.

As a fan of Borderlands, f- Borderlands 4. I’ve learned my lesson with things like Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands DLC. Even if it wasn’t the same studio, they do not have a commitment to a standard of quality to their name. I’ll let the “real fans” buy it up for over 100 euros so that I can go back and buy the complete with everything edition for 20 bucks several years from now, there are plenty of alternatives and even though I see the Gearbox witchhunts for what they are it still doesn’t make Randy less of an ass (I’m not looking to be a “real fan”, Randy). Also, the low fps is unacceptable for such an ordinary Borderlands looking game.

As an aside, I bought the Silksong game, and I’m not even playing it or am a particular fan of the genre atm.

The CPU on that motherboard is going to be like “What do you want from me!?!?”

Also, the potential powerdrain is asking for stability issues.

I don’t see as much potential malice in Bloomberg as the conspiracy theories are saying, just normal every day malice of their legal department seeing their footage being used and suing to get money out of it. The news industry is particularly cutthroat now, so paying top buck for video exclusives probably makes them think they can demand cuts from channels like Steve’s. If it was pressure due to any one of the conspiracies being brought up, the opposition would be much more organized and not just coming from the legal department, and they wouldn’t be giving him an out by just saying he can pay a licensing fee to resolve the dispute.

They could be copright trolls who are trying to force Steam to do just what they did so they can claim damages for lost revenue on delays on actually legitimate claims. It might be a bet on how well they think they will be able to defend against perjury from the people actually able to sue. Mods aren’t like YouTube channels, a lot of them aren’t getting a decent revenue stream that they claim they lost or to help them in their defense.

Bioshock 1 was an actual shock. 2, never finished it. Infinite, differently themed shooter with some twists that already had it reaching out to alternative universes but wasn’t so much of a “bio shock”.

Alternate universes is the modern version of jumping the shark. Starfield did it on its first go, and look at how that ended. Look at Marvel.

Can’t understand why Bioshock got that much attention and System Shock sort of got ditched for other companies to remaster. Now do SoulShock.

It has a lot to do with how it would have affected Cyberpunk 2077’s release in China and it’s huge gaming market. I mean, just look at the downvote count in my previous comment, there are a lot of butthurt factory trolls downvoting it from the red stained Lemmy “Marxist Leninist” foundries. China cannot accept any political commentary, specially coming from Taiwan, and the devs got punished for it. The devs capitulated, but China did not care, so why bother?

If only GOG was this militant when it involved Taiwanese developers (Red Candle Game devs), I would still be using their platform. They haven’t even allowed Nine Sols on it, so I haven’t bothered going back yet or have even recommended them to the degree I usually did over Steam.

It’s not even that they had to censor themselves, it’s their woeful attempt at an excuse. It’s funny whom they kneel before and whom the are activists against. Were it a China “Many Gamers” matter, do not expect them to have been as willing…

I’m hoping it includes New Game+

I mean, it’s a Trump appointee. Was there ever any doubt?

Have they changed the power connector? Have they changed as a company? Then zero cares.

The competition is catching up, and it is not a fire hazard for the rest of your expensive hardware or an based on insults to your intelligence.
