right, but it seems like they have some specific “edgy side universe” instead of this being the newest reboot of batman.

great I still have to double check what happened to Damien and Nightwing, and who the current batman is and how/why. Fucking DC reboots man. Just go bankrupt already or keep the canon canon.

Or , trap the characters in a timeframe (eg, 50s-80s) and have everything be a side story. 2026’s batman series takes place in 1969 with silver age batman, 2027’s batman series takes place in the 80s, etc etc.

EDIT : oh fuck it. I have no idea what the fuck happened with Damien, nor bruce. I tried to read wikipedia, and ran up dry. I’ll read it if someone explains it, but I’m not researching it anymore.

who is this batman? Jean Paul? Damien Wayne?

“Step up your VR Experience today” is a call to action to do something today. (edit: which is to put googly eyes on your VR headset)

The model of headset is irrelevant

just like electronic components, they sell the gates by the chip with multiple gates in them because it’s cheaper

I always thought it was a big city in Denmark.

They aren’t even close. If you said Germany or Belgium or the Netherlands, I’d say , fair enough.

I know people who thought Denmark was in Colorado though, so I’m at least doing better than them.

Jesus wept

I thought it was going to be Lenna https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenna

for building most of those games

providing an engine does not build the game.

Valve has recieved 30% for doing fuck all. Why are you so adamantly defending them?

I’m not defending valve, I’m attacking epic

twitter’s ai chatbot

Yeah, sure. Epic recieved 5% of basically 90% of games being released from about 2003 to fuck knows when.

Epic has fortnite and the FUCKING UNREAL ENGINE THAT REPLACED THE QUAKE 2 ENGINE FOR BEING USED IN EVERYTHING.

I think they’re on an even ground.

If you’re stupid, look into Static analysis for additional warnings that let you know when you’re fucking up as you code, instead of at runtime.

EDit : It’s also good if you’re not stupid, but you know, you’re probably already using it.

Giant bomb owns itself, but who pitched in to buy it? I don’t imagine dan or Bakalar having very deep pockets to keep it running forever.

Still classy move by them, they could have just disbanded. Kinda shows that Bakalar is in it for the long haul.

The damage has already been done , and the evolution GB was pushing for has already been accomplished though. The point of GB was Jeff G saying “fuck you, I’ll do it myself” to corporate, and the writers that came along with him. Those guys are all gone to nextlander/Jeff Gerstmann show, and the style of content they wanted to make is being made by everyone.

Best of luck to all the crew. Would be great to see the old horses return, alongside Voidburger (Jess is and always has been one of “us” faceless, alias users).

It’s because he squandered any goodwill or even playing field it might have by being spyware. Valve earned its trust after people fucking hated steam when it first came out

who are the other ones?

It’s still hitting me regularly that this pope is more reasonable than the US president.

how is it still hitting you? the new guy’s been pope less than a day

windows 11 is a shitshow

nah but anon is built different

They dropped the ball with the characters completely, I have no idea why they just didn’t do “Tommy Vercetti, Claude, CJ”. Same thing with 6, why not just put Catalina in there?

I think it just got more generic as the series/time through the game went on. I am not a “heist” or “generic crime” guy, unless it’s presented as a farce, and it just started to be by the numbers and serious by that point.

Like, if we look at GTA SA, the first third is a 90s gangsta thing. OK. The second two thirds are more in line with GTA’s colourful characters and irreverent style.

4 was brown and stuff, but it was different to the series. Niko was genuine, dark and caught in a shitty , weird situation. I tried with the DLC packs, but they didn’t stick, probably because I tried to do them in order, and Lost and Damned was again, too heavy.

My main complaint about GTA V is that

it was formulaic and overstayed its welcome. I got up to “bury the hatchet” and just stopped.
