It’s kind of interesting that this franchise grew entirely out of the failure of SimCity in the same space. Now they are the ones fumbling their captive market and I wonder if another city builder franchise is going to spring up soon.

Sure. But does the 3D modeller then integrate their changes into DLC format and bundle it to work with the main game and paywall mechanics? It goes both ways. There isn’t just a 3D artist making a bug free DLC package on their own.

Sure they make the artwork, but who integrates it? What if bugs occur from that? If content packs could be made by artists alone, everyone would be pumping out content packs constantly.

I understand the energy in these replies, but do you guys seriously think artists are packaging their work as a DLC and integrating it into the main game? There is still a lot of work that goes into any DLC or major integration that has to be done by the same people that fix bugs.

That is usually the case. The smart people do the coding, but the morons do the planning and fail upward as people managers generally do.

Either that or narcissists who get to the very top by shouting over everyone else, so the smart opinions don’t get taken onboard.

They were forced to leave because of all the boobies.

You know what there’s too much of on the Internet these days? Squares that don’t understand sarcasm and tone.

I also blame Twitch. Before there were boobies in the way of my gaming streams, people had to read into the covered up boobies all over the Internet. Now there’s just boobies on display everywhere and you don’t have to think about anything.

I just wonder how Lindsey compares to Craig.

It looks like one of those bundles also includes Ferrystones.

I wouldn’t say 100%. Marketing wasn’t responsible for releasing on platforms that couldn’t actually run the game properly…

All Rockstar Games ever have been pushed back by months or years. They have all had monolithic levels of crunch. People not working in the office is definitely not to blame. Particularly if they were hired as offside, which the article claims.

I seem to remember Cyberpunk 2077 having a release that was quite far from perfection…

I mean, it is pretty amazing. It’s funny if they’re ironic upvotes and it’s wild if they’re upvotes of agreement because it is complete misinformation.

Yeah EA has lots of bad rep and yeah they made a couple of games in the series. But the game the article is about, as well as the original game it is remaking were nothing to do with EA.

Amazing how you can just shit on EA and get upvoted even though they are nothing to do with it.

Well yeah, if Marvel released their next movie and it was literally the fan art.

I think the point is: this publisher in particular is a piece of shit. Pushed out the original creators and stole the IP effectively.

Students believe there is a camera inside this hole on the vending machine

Students and their silly beliefs. Don’t worry about that lens shining in the hole. It’s just a useless hole!

Oh sorry I didn’t realise we were supposed to be living off grid entirely to be allowed to browse this sub.

You should probably stop going to work and school, too much exposure.

Personally my hotmail account is nearing 25 years old. I both get this and godawful amounts of spam. I’m not sure if its entirely due to age, or due to historic leaks including the email address. I would say it’s normal if you have the same email as you did in the 90s.

I Googled them because I was interested. The answer is yes.

Sony failed to sue them, hoping to force them to block copyright breach adjacent DNS resolvers. That feels like a badge of honour.
