Honestly, did anyone take anything at all away from this article?

I'm jacked up about Avowed, and Obsidian remains one of the best studios in existence right now, but it really felt like this article said absolutely nothing of substance. Basically just, "we're trying to make a well paced game with complex narrative choice", and it's like yeah, you're Obsidian, that's what you do and have always done.

Did it say Fallout 76 at the time you read it? It looks like they corrected that to New Vegas by now.

Yes I do, both are designed to get the user to where they want to be in the game faster than loading the game from scratch and navigating through menus to get there.

They took different approaches in design, but both are attempting to tackle the same UX issue.

That's what I mean though, both are trying to accomplish basically the same thing, but Sony's implementation is kind of half baked in that it requires developer support and doesn't actually resume the game, just gets you close to where you were.

Shut the fuck up dumb Russian. Being discriminatory towards a single country is neither anti-slav, nor xenophobic, it's just anti-Russian.

It functions differently, but both are trying to accomplish the same thing from a user perspective, to get them back into the specific part of the game they were just in.

The differences in how they approached that problem is what I mean by Microsoft running around Sony software wise.

Despite other problems, it really feels like Microsoft runs around Sony in circles when it comes to their software prowess. Quick Resume doesn't work flawlessly with every game, but when it does work it's pretty incredible to jump straight back to the exact same state in another game as if you'd never closed it.

Go get blown up by a mine in kursk to build Putin another palace, you dumb fucking Russian.

Hurrr durrr people are discriminating against me just because I started the first land war in Europe for no reason.

Jesus Christ, it's becoming increasingly obvious that Russia's best minds have either left or been been shreded by FPV drones.

Nope. It's a factual statement since Russia invaded Europe, raped and murdered its citizens en masse, and chose to remove itself from the world order, Europe, and being a nation deserving of anything other than disgust and distain.

Russians would "think" that all Slavs are Russian.
