  • Former Dragon Age writer says Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Baldur's Gate 3 prove 'what's possible when a game is given time to cook'

  • If I am going to be completely honest, part of their outsourcing is why I waited until a few days ago to start the game.

    Not because I knew, but because the initial screenshots and clips showed a very generic unreal engine level of graphics. With chromatic abberation everywhere, the exact same hair you see in every recent UE game, the same facial style that makes it easier to match mouth movements, and so on. Once I heard it actually had a good story I ended up putting in about ten hours in a day after I started. But they did suffer from outsourcing parts of the game.

  • Is there an added adjective if it's done in the same area you were born and grew up, after having lived far away for a while?

  • From what I remember he seem to mostly use it to change parameters and intiate things with voice commands. At least in the movies.

  • It's actually wild how much it can matter; I've personally seen cops get ready to line people up because of drinking in a park, then change demeanour and tell everyone to clean up and move along because they told everyone to get up, and noticed the two white guys in the group.

    And I live in one of the countries ranking in top 10 on all the different "best place to live" lists.

  • Then you have pacific salmon, where they dump the eggs and semen in a pit in a river, and both die shortly after. Giving a whole host of meanings to "dropped off".

    Or the turtles who bury eggs on a beach and never go back.

  • How much longer until we have to provide our ID or biometrics to use the Internet or apps?

    That's already a thing in some places.

    In parts of Europe you have to "prove" that you're over 18 to watch videos that are age restricted on youtube. By doing something like a $0 credit card purchase on your google account.

    And Discord has been talking about facial reckognition age verification in the UK over their new "sensitive content" regulation. So it would block that content if not approved via that or other thing(like digital purchase or national ID).

  • I know it’s popular to go “developer good, publisher bad”, but in Bioware’s case, from what I’ve read, they were mostly just given the rope to hang themselves.

    Ever since ME Andromeda they've been outsourcing a lot of the work, and/or using smaller and inexperienced studios while promoting and launching them as if made by the main studio.

  • It goes far beyond conspiracy theories at this point: Most major media outlets and centralized social media platforms in the world are sanewashing the entire conservative bloc in America.

    They're literally copying Germany in the 1930s, with secret police, sending people to camp based on ethnicity(For all those who seem to not know: Dachau concentration camp was opened in 1933, thousands held there by 1934), etc. Elon Musk did a full blow, Hitler style Nazi salute on stage during the inaugration celebration, twice. And all the media, including pages like Snopes, are acting like "It's impossible to tell what he actually meant".

  • "You can't just have Geralt for every single game" says his voice actor, and if you think The Witcher 4 making Ciri the protagonist is "woke," then "read the damn books"

    Jump

  • I've said for years that one or more of the main characters should be prominent, but you play most of the game as a custom character and you get to choose your witcher school. So I'm sort of hoping that she's the protagonist and main character in a similar way to how she is TW3.

  • Microsoft blocks email-access for ICC prosecutor in accordance with US sanctions over Netanyahu arrest warrant

  • Yeah this is bad but this kind of stuff is the thing that can only be done once. Very much like the Unilateral SWIFT BAN on Russia. This prompted all of countries in the world to create an alternative and so they did, this case is the same thing. It might take some time but countries will find a way.

    I get that is what your gornment told you, but it literally is not true and there are plenty of sources to back that up.

    Russia, on their own, started developing SPFS almost a decade before they were banned, because they were threatened with a ban in 2014 if they didn't stop invading more after Crimea. So when they invaded again they were rightfully banned.

    The SPFS functions with some banks covering about 15 countries, hoping for 20 soon. SWIFT is still happily used by over 200 countries.

  • I always find it funny how people act as if there is literally no reason in existence to keep using windows.

    It literally just shows us your ignorance and insulation from the real world.

  • firefox also isn't immune

    Jump

  • There's AI in firefox? I'm on the beta version and can't find anything except a "try solo ai" option in the settings that I haven't clicked.

    EDIT: Oh, you have to open the side-bar, specifically select the chatbot option, then choose a provider if you even want to use it. and it's not active until you choose. If someone complains about something I actually had to google to find, they're obsessed. Because I still get the "Try our assistant" notifications shoved down my throat regularly on other services.

  • Left rule

    Jump

  • Despite what many people think/have heard, most places do not have a specific law against doing loops in a roundabout. And when they do it is often a local ordinace(mostly small towns trying to prevent a local car community from driving up and down the main street all night). Although other laws or regulations can apply depending on circumstances.

    Things like impeding/obstructing traffic, careless/reckless driving, noise ordinance, etc. But if you're driving around one in an industrial area at night, the worst you'll get is probably some accusing questions and a "warning".

  • They "have" to put them to use, or they can't justify all the money they spent developing them. And they've realized that most people aren't interested, so they're starting to force it on people.
