Sad, EK used to be huge in the watercooling scene.

A quote from Vincke at the end of the post only stokes the excitement further. "I don't know if we’re going to pull it off," he wrote
This is so refreshing. A studio with big Ws that still goes balls out and takes risks. You love to see it. Take notes, gaming studios. This is how you make fun games.
Your PC is a bit less dusty on your desk. If it's extremely heavy (eg, custom watercooling), you might want to put it on the floor. My standing desk started sagging ominously under the load.
Oh no, now I will have to pay $50/mo to re-watch marvel movie 832 and an action movie where the main character has to go on a 2hr quest for revenge after someone shot their pet.
...I barely watch movies anymore, there's not been a ton of great new stuff imo. I'm so sick of subscriptions, too.
It turns out, the answer is simple: the team feels like the the story of Ori is complete.
Thank you. Certain games series (Halo, CoD, and Battlefield) all had natural ending points where it was time for new stories, games, and different IPs. Larian has also figured this out by doing a handful of Divinity projects, then BG3, and is now focused on entirely different games unrelated to Divinity or BG. The ability to take risks is exactly what we need.
Though the lack of games from Valve drives me crazy, they are also the kings of not pissing a franchise into modern, wall-running mediocrity.
I get my news from a paper and it is a decent blend of good and bad news. Quality journalism. I gift articles often just to kinda fight back against the whole title-and-picture-only news.
Sad but totally understandable why the Vlakkith parts were cut. I still wish the player could kick her ass, though!
I heard they are working on something other than DOS3 for now. They are trying new IP, which I'm honestly fine with. I like companies with the balls to try something new.
Whatever Larian touches turns to gold, at least for now. Divinity 2 was so insanely good. Div 1 is pretty good, according to friends. Haven't finished it yet.
My rule of thumb is to avoid all F2Ps like the plague. If it's free, you are the product. I learned that lesson the hard way when I was younger, and the F2P market was still in its infancy.
Lethal company, Pacific Drive, Helldivers 2, balatro... so many good indie* games for $10 to $40 while these $70 games are burning in. All of them overwhelmingly positive too. Really makes you think about the games market and the ones who are actually taking risks and innovating.
*Helldivers isn't indie, but I also wouldn't describe them as AAA either.
We will continue to wait for the holy grail of micro LED monitors and phones. So far, all of my OLED phones have burnt in around the 5 year mark. Avoiding OLED like the plague for longer lasting devices like Monitors, TVs and (god forbid) car displays.
