I haven't given them a dime since the Cuties thing back right before Covid.
In fact, I'm glad I kept most of my DVDs. I had a feeling it'd be digital right management hell for some of the harder to find stuff that falls out of favor and doesn't get reprints.
Back in the day if you wanted Mario to jump a little higher, you didn't pay 99 cents, you bought a game genie, put it before the game in your NES and used the moon jump code.
These people are sick.
"I have black friends" has morphed into:
"You're racist"
Yeah, and?
(most) White people have the privilege of watching fiction, and understanding it's fiction.
People that can't be the bad guy: women, anyone not white. Because that one bad guy in the film that is the woman or the black guy somehow represents all women or all black people everywhere, and that's sexist and that's racist, etc.
Thinking a bit more, the last time a woman was the bad guy in a film that didn't suck was Dredd in 2012, and it bombed. Which really sucks because Ma-ma was a fantastic villain. A wholly complete, yet broken individual with a horrible, but thought out back story that had reasons for being the way she was.
I think he just wanted her in for the pun value.
Le Pen is mightier than the sword.
... I'll show myself out.
Was the book written pre or post harambe?
This is important info.
People went insane after Harambe and have not recovered.
Normalizing a phrase we use for you is not okay. You're not using the magic words right.
It really does cry out as it strikes you.
I'd get a team to finish Saint's Row 2 PC for IdolNinja.
But a completely new project?
I've been working on a non extraction ... extraction style game. Everyone has their own home zone (yours is different from mine is different from someone else's.) where only you can see it. That's where you bring your gear and loot. Then you hook it into the decontaminator device that is above ground, so that you can collect and use the gear in the underground base. (It's not a virus, it's not a fungus, it's a computer virus from space that is trying to upgrade itself using anything it can (think the movie Screamers or Virus)
You put together teams of people you rescue that become NPCs that can help your base. There's tech people, medical people, science, military, etc. They all have a use. And depending on how you spend your time helping and fixing and who you're looting for and with, you can have NPC groups that shoot and defend competently above ground looking for things like food and water and essential gear. But it's up to you to tell them what to look for, and how much they should try and seek it out. There's also failure states for this. Like, if you don't have your NPC retrieveal team bring someone that can get past security gates in military installations, they'll just tag the spot on your map and say 'we saw [this and this] here at [time]' which is sort of the game's way of telling you where the good shit is for now, unless someone or some other faction gets it first. Factions by the way sometimes don't keep the good shit, they'll sell it to the highest bidder, so it's good to get in with at least one or two factions.
For example, if the NPC collection team you send out trip over a weapon or a backpack or a canteen, that got dropped from a fire fight that happened recently, they'll bring it back, even if you don't ask them to, because it's easy to just grab and keep going, but if you don't tell them to look around, they just get what they're supposed to and haul ass back to your base. You will however miss out on the location of higher end gear that they can try and get or mark on your map and tell you of a contested hot zone, or loot behind a door that needs a specific card key or something.
NPCs not in your faction or group will loot while you're looting, it's up to you to either take them out, or help them out, and earn faction cred until they like you. Then you can trade with them, and be civil with them. And if they like you enough, they can be called in to help you out in a fight. And when you become like you're one of them, (maxed out cred) you get access to their best gear. The opposite happens too, if they catch you killing or looting from them enough, you become shoot on sight. They'll even put a bounty on you and allow other users to try and take you down for high end gear and faction rep with them.
There's also a few factions that just hate everyone and will shoot you regardless. Taking them out earns rep with whatever group of the month the crazy faction currently hates. They wander along looting and shooting like you.
So far I have everything I want in there, but the AI is super finicky. Sometimes I'll max out my cred with a faction, and the opposite effect doesn't happen with the hated faction of the group that now likes you. So if you do anything for the group that should hate you, the other group just gets fucking livid and I haven't found out why that is yet.
A point so succinct it sucked the retort right out of her throat and brought forth a very measured repose of "I can't win, I'm out"
red line go up mentality will be the death of all these companies that don't just rate hike, they rate mountain climb and expect you to follow.
Perhaps go to a safe country, then. There's too many foreigners here who do not care how kind you are. They're snakes waiting to bite you.
I heard they were also kicked out of over 100 galaxies.
The conviction to victim ratio is astoundingly worse than I thought.
I probably shouldn't have read that before bed.
The internet is now old enough that the same thing that happened to NASA will happen to the internet. Enough of the architects and original designers are old enough, and not enough people learned how it works that it'll eventually die off anyway.
It was fun while it lasted.
Remember the day they paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
Right, so fox jews it is.
They literally serve no purpose. As soon as 'next thing' gets more popular, those without anything better to do will shout about it so they'll think they're doing good.
This is the second time I heard about this game.
It must have done so well.
It's going to be really funny if this lady's art direction amounted to what the final movie poster looked like.
An Art director is supposed to be a pre production liaison between the production designer and construction crews. Putting the art into reality. While the construction crews take care of the sets. This is the person that does the window dressing.
Since the movie was fairly low budget, I can't see a lot of work here. She worked about a month, got about 7 grand and moved on ... bitterly.
Do you think she'd have given the money back if the movie sucked instead?
"Won't somebody think of he illegal children brought here for human trafficking? We need them ... for reasons."
They already fucked with the buzz light year movie.
Might as well fuck up the main franchise.
"You got a friend in me" has become "You'll get subverted by me"
They changed society to enable this behavior in some of the easier to manipulate.
Gotta unfuck it and change it back so that the idiots will have to think normally again.
That can't possibly be a thing.
Are people actually that retarded that they can't tell a grift when they see one?
That was written by a doctor. (of history, so we know whoever gave her that doctorate did it entirely out of feels)
That's the kind of thing you get signed and framed. Just for how absolutely balls to the wall retarded that is.
This isn't even steeped in reality. She's conflating a death for a death, a situation for a different situation.
I am ashamed at whichever college or university gave her that doctorate. And I am saddened that we share the earth with this person.
This requires more than reaction. It requires moral honesty about who is deemed dangerous
Here's a mirror. Have a look.
Hollywood is falling apart for some reason we haven't quite figured out.
Do you think you could shovel more fags and blacks onto this production and bloat it with useless and typically talentless people? It's the only way to be even looked at for an Oscar now, by the way.
