Besides the already sketchy AI thing, I wonder why they need to know gender & ethnicity.

Decentralization will help a lot, though.

The decentralisation of Bluesky is a joke.

They surely learnt from that. Now there won’t be an auction house and mail so close together, so players have at least one reason to be in the city. Oh wait, nevermind, they are already selling that for the price of 1,5x AAA game.

Every mod id ever played has been free.

If you’ve actively played Gmod in a multiplayer setting and you weren’t the server admin: i doubt that. Gmod has a still thriving paid modding community, mostly for extensions for Pointshops, TTT content or other game modifiers. It maybe was free to you though ;)

Sure, me too. That’s why…

But then I may have to live longer…

Sounds good to me, tbh. Increasing health for everyone involved, reducing costs on medical services. I think New Zealand had something similiar? Instead of an outright ban affecting everyone this is slowly phased out, so young kids probably won’t even miss it.

Ugh, Denuvo.

For VW a lot of it is management failure. Instead of investing more into EVs and creating a car for the masses they held onto non-EVs mostly and then are surprised when cheaper vars (often from China) sell more.

Additionally VW had a dividend payout of 4,5 billion euro earlier this year (something that is not mandatory) … and then noticed a couple of months later that they are missing 5 billion euro in their budget, leading to the news above.

For farmers this effectively eliminates the need for an auctioneer alt. Now instead of sending mail to your auctioneer, you can now farm and when your bags are full instantly list it on the auction house. This is especially important on early markets (lets say new patch or expansion) as the prices go down quickly. This feels very much P2W for a full price game with a subscription.

Lol, that is not realistic for most players. The original 5 million gold was not realistic back then either.

Yeah, i built a tiny proof of concept Metroidvania for my studies… 150 hours. At least 70 were used to build, improve and then fix the animation tree which handled all states. Really cool that I could do that with Godot. The metroidvania was 2d single player and presumably 3d multiplayer is not easier. I hope the devs are more experienced than I was, though.

Time for the EU to rip him a new one :)

• in some countries

Yeah, isnt the secret service about protecting the governing body? They should have shot him themselves. ^/s

Used to? What are you running now?
