If you got a problem with Canadian Gooses, you got a problem with me, and I suggest you let that one marinate

What kind of fights? Just random?
And with that, I’m out
Oh, that Molly
If you aren’t in the B1G Ten at this moment, say no.
Thanks John Locke
The current landowners have the entire supply. They tear down all the affordable housing on campus. A few developers then control all rentals on campus which enables them to inflate the demand artificially. That’s not a free market. That’s a cartel of corruption.
Were you in a two bedroom one bathroom apartment shared between 4 people with each paying $700+utilities with no laundry? Cause that’s how it works on the campus that I went to. Exploitative rent is evil.
“In the back of a truck” is pretty much the definition of a parade float.
At no point did you come anywhere close to anything that can be considered a rational thought
That’s easily one of the faster growing communities on Lemmy. That’s like 0.3% of active monthly users. 1-in-300 people is not bad at all.
It does when the company funding the game development wants a return on investment.
I’m saying releasing it years after the fact when you’re about the roll the next one out is a pretty good move.
I think you aren’t realizing what you implying. Companies that just fund studios for publishing rights are companies like EA, Activision, Take Two, Ubisoft, and Tencent. Every one of these publishers has very aggressive microtransaction platforms. Plus, they all publish predominantly multiplayer games. If the only way for me to get single player games is to buy a console, so be it.
I’m not trying to be confrontational. I want to hear your honest takes. Let me put it to you this way:
To me, the only reason Sony is doing it with their back catalog is to try to generate new users for their upcoming sequels. The game is at the end of its earning lifespan if they don’t port it, so why not use it to market the upcoming titles?
I currently have 8 computers. 3 for work. 2 for media. 2 old gaming rigs, and my current computer.
I had twelve salvaged hard drives in my stuff before I bought my house, and I started doing that in college, so it’s at least 20.
If Sony doesn’t invest in their own studios, the consumer just doesn’t get the game those studios make. Without PlayStation, gaming would look significant worse over the last 30 years. Most of my favorite games are Sony exclusives.
There’s a practical and ethical difference between creating something for a closed ecosystem and taking a product in an open ecosystem and closing it.
I don’t think it’s a fair comparison. I’ve never had a PC that has worked for 7 years without replacing significant parts. I’ve only had 5 PlayStations total since I was 5. I’ve had at least twenty computers during the same time frame.
There’s investment made by Sony for games on their hardware. If the hardware were bad, developers wouldn’t use it.
I work for a start up, and I loved getting the opportunity to build a tech platform while not having to build up the business from the ground up. I can’t do human resources, marketing, sales, yaddah yaddah. I don’t have any way of just getting my product into retail. Two years in, and we’re about to land a $125M contact. It’s green energy, so I feel like I’m saving the world.
