A lot of their market practices aren't great either. Backing up saves on your own hardware, anyone?

Just because you can't change minds by walking into the centers of people's bubbles and trying to shout logic at the people there, doesn't mean the genuine exchange of ideas at the intersecting outer edges of different groups aren't real or important.

Entrenched opinions are nearly impossibly to alter in discussion, you can't force people to change their minds, to see reality for what it is even if they refuse. They have to be willing to actually listen, first.

And people can and do grow disillusioned, at which point they will move away from their bubbles of their own accord, and go looking for real discourse.

At that point it's important for reasonable discussion that stands up to scrutiny to exist for them to find.

And it does.

AI logos and buttons tend to be "shiny" with a gradient color scheme.

"Fuck Konami, because Konami is the worst"

At least we have Kojima Productions instead, now. Loved a lot of what was in Death Stranding. Truly different from a lot of other games. Kind of like Journey, but without actually seeing any other players.

Same! I'm adoring it.

I've been mentioning !deadlock@sopuli.xyz whenever I can, it's growing steadily and will hopefully come to be annother big and active fediverse community.

Everything points towards them beginning to plan for simultaneous releases, going forward.

And so far, sequels have come to PC, eventually.

Maybe they hoped some would grab consoles during the wait, but I'm willing to bet it wasn't anywhere near an amount they would need for it to be worth it. PC players are VERY patient when it comes to waiting for a version that can turn up the graphics, resolution, and frame rate.

As someone who has adopted it as a replacement for Battleborn, me too.

But even in Battleborn, certain abilities would pull the camera out to a third person perspective, because in first person you just wouldn't be able to see what you were doing otherwise.

I think playing around cover is better in third person, too. Have you noticed that jungle creeps and the characters have a different animation when shooting "around a corner"?

It seems MOBA mechanics benefit a lot from the improved awareness of a third person camera.

It sounds like maybe they're looking to develop AI generated animations.
