Good point. Sorry I wasn’t clear. I only meant that they couldn’t branch out and develop other games like they wanted to. Essentially I was making the same point that you are in terms of what they HAD to develop. MS it was Halo, Sony it’s destiny but in either place they did not have the option to make new IP. At least maybe not till now but that looks more like a forced dev.

I agree with your sentiment, though that Sony is pushing them more in house.

I would generally agree with this statement but I think in this particular case it may be a bad thing. From what I understood of the article they are taking a portion of the Bungie dev team and spinning off to be a part of the Sony game devs. I have a feeling the manage team being taken out had been a big pushback on that.

Bungie wanted to leave Microsoft because they wanted to do new things and not just Halo. Unfortunately it turned out activation screwed them in terms of their development and mad then cut 70% of the D1 story with less than a year to release.

After all that they are eventually bought by Sony that now does almost the same thing MS was doing to them.

Don’t get me wrong, I am glad it’s more managers and corporate office than devs but I have a bad feeling that this is just the start of a bad turn of events for them.

TIL that there was a Deadpool game. May have to go back and play it.

Then I have some prime real estate in Florida to sell ya.

Edit - Okay jokes aside I actually can’t tell if you were joking so I had some fun.

This is true however there are much more documented instances of this in America. Could be a pure numbers game (more people more cases) but no full proof of that.

A last will and testament is a legal document if actually executed properly that would cover this. This is all they are talking about. Either that or if no will exists then a court order that shows “said person” gets the inheritance and your GOG account.

I genuinely believe he just wants to make cool and fun games.

Originally i would agree but i am referencing how things are today as that’s what the meme is referencing.

If you asked Americans today if they are the rebels or the empire the folks I know concede that we are the empire. We are the ones going into other peoples home towns with military occupation.

Very true.

No, not okay. The monkey puppet reaction.

We are not shocked to learn we are the bad guys. I never said it’s okay, I just disagree with the reaction meme to indicate we didn’t know it.

Not sure where you pulled “it’s okay because America” from my statement but no need to jump to conclusions and put words in peoples mouth.

I disagree. Most Americans know we are the fire nation/empire from Star Wars.

Well at least most people I know.

I disagree. The comment says you can Sync up memories. That means those memories and experiences would happen to both people once Synced.

If there was no Syncing then I fully agree.

I actually don’t think you are too far off. About a week ago i read about Masimo unavailing their watch for $999. Not many people will buy a watch for that much even with a blood ox system in it.

I think Apple will wait a year or two for them to “fail” by not succeeding like the investors want and then offer to purchase the company. A super low ball price and then just keep moving on with their plans.

Dang!! Good point.

Then I think similar to another post. Catch up on huge world events.

I would love to try and direct the future in a better direction but doing so would mess with time. So maybe just do the best I can for my family and friends.

Sports almanac, any kind of history of the stock market, and the history of Power Ball and Mega Millions.

No way, that’s awesome to learn. I will have to try and find it and see.

Couldn’t agree more!

I understand your point in the creator but I find fault in that argument.

Historically it doesn’t matter what the creator of anything prefers unless it’s an “unveiling” and they name it on the spot. People in general will take something and run with it regardless of the creators intent. The perfect example is “light saber” versus “laser sword.” (Edit forgot to add the word sword after laser)

To be honest I don’t care all that much. If you say jif or gift without the t, either way I know what you are talking about.

I love it!

You do realize the word Soccer for the actual game originated in England right?

It just so happened that “Rugby football” got shortened to Rugby and this “Associa toon (Socker) football” got shortened to Football.

Since since an American sport came around the same time called “Football” they kept the name “Soccer” for Association Football.

Just letting you know a little back story.

A small article about it can be found here. https://www.britannica.com/story/why-do-some-people-call-football-soccer And there are plenty more info out there about it.
