  1. https://www.eurogamer.net/steam-updates-subscriber-agreements-to-remove-arbitration-clause Apparently Steam changed tehir policy where there isn't abartration now? You have to go through their local court system? Is this a good thing?
  2. The only way things will change is if someone creates a new studio and game production and starts from scratch. That or we would have to get our decent games from the EAST or West Europe. The good news if someone had the ability to create a new game studio they would have a massive selection of some of the best of the industry to choose from. IMO if someone tried to cancel a game (provided it is actually decent) than that company should embrace it and enjoy the free publicity (they would need to get good samples out have a good PR program etc. Maybe find blogers/vblogers that are of like mind to view the game etc. The video above basically states that the gaming industry (USA etc.) is just going to continue to shove their shit down our throats untill we like it (or know / forget there was better) That is their path. They have so much money and think they will continue to be bailled out (provided they continue with DEI ) that they don't have to worry about their massive losses. Instead of a license to print money.
  3. They can do the Bond universe in a series. If properly done it can work well. Have a couple of episodes with James and some side episodes with secondary characters either supporting or investigating something that later might make it to James level or like you mentioned where Q is kidnapped and shows them what's what. I mention a series as experimentation with alternate characters can be done and if there are some ground gained and people like something they can persue it further. Like Better Call Saul. He was spun off from Breaking Bad. The second I see him I thought he'd do great in his own series. Using the universe for added content and experiementation is an acceptable thing IMO. For example the movie on Star Wars where there wasn't any Jedi and they were fililing in the space between two movies of the old Star Wars. That was a decent movie IMO. Not block buster but decent. Best of all, IMO it didn't distract from the franchise. People aren't bitching about the new Jedi (forget her name currently). Hell even Solo was better than what they are putting out most recently. That is saying a lot! What is extremly sad is that Lucas left a lot of material for Disney to use when he sold the company. They decided to dump it.
  4. Ah, you are correct. DEI companies are the reason things are going south. From my understanding it is because the cooporations are afraid they will be cancelled. So they ignore common sence and follow DEI commands and fail. The only thing I can think of is they are greedy and are somehow convienced that if they be more "including" they will gain more customers. I can't understand how somone can be so stupid. Hey, want to provide content and / or merchandise for LGBTQ cool, do it. Make movies for them. Use their forumula and create new interesting fresh content. Logic would indicate that that would be the best path. However, these cooroporations decide they want to change a forumula as you said "give them the license to print money". Why? Basic economics, don't deviate from what works. If it ain't broke don't fix it. Somehow along the way of them rising up they loose sight of what is basic common sense. So they have to loose billions and billions of dollars to learn that they should follow what works? Stupid as fuck IMO. This is basically the very first thing they teach in college when teaching economics and buisness practices. At least years ago. Hell, even people that aren't going into buisness can take a basic course as part of their electives that would cover this. As for James Bond... if they deviate and Social Justice the fuck out of it. They will loose all their fans. I am sure of it. They cacn create pretty much any crap they want like sharks with lasers on their heads in a pool while he hangs from a rope and they will be good to go. You name pretty much any stupid thing they want to do and the fans will accept it. So long as it continues with the same macho, framework (with a male James Bond) Now, nothing says they can't have a spin off of I believe Agent 9 or the like (I believe that is the female agent or perhaps I got confused with another movie) A female agent. HOWEVER, It Cannot be marketed as James Bond. Like if CD Project Red makes a spin off of Witcher with the girl (forget the name now) I am confident they will be successful. (by the way she is gay or at least BI nobody batted an eye on that) If done with the same care and consideration as Witcher it will be likely a succeess. If they re-release Witcher as a female it will fail. Same as Space Marines. Good that that bullshit was stopped. He was correct. Not the path. From a fan I know apparently there are other choices in that world that would somewhat fit their female driven narative if they decided to keep with the lore. Wouldn't be space marines (males) but people likely would of liked to see that (movie) TL;DR don't fix what isn't broken Stick with the successful forumla then you have a license to print money.
  5. There is one issue with the thought that they can't back out or correct and the result being they get cancelled. It has been prooven that the LGBTQ can't cancel shit. At least shit that is really good and delivers. Example Hogwarts. They were on a major push to get this game to fail. All their efforts did is push the game into space. On the flip side. If you decide to use a trans person as your spokesperson when your history was macho men... you will be cancelled. Same for motorcycles. Start DEI shit and get quickly and promptly cancelled. It is just fact. These are extreme examples but still goes along the same track when movies and games start this shit. Can you say Concord? Perhaps you can, but you sure the shit can't play it anymore. It was so badly cancelled for its bullshit that Sony did the unthinkable and completely refunded all the purchases. They really needed a AAA exclusive to come out for their new console release. That shit royally screwed them over.
  6. WTF, it takes a lot to really piss off Japan. Great job Ubsoft I got a free license for Star Wars Outlaws. With the above, I am so happy I never downloaded it.
  7. Rant away, Bugthesda deserves all the rants!
  8. "push some Amazon culture into them"... LOL WTF that was funny!
  9. I like this youtuber. Direct and to the point and quite knowlegable.
  10. They just need to revamp the discovery system. Add reviews, number of downloads, cost etc. It doesn't seem at least according to my viewing (not use) that they have such a feature. Even adding a thumbs up or thumbs down for those that are members to have one vote for a mod. This can also help sort the materials / mods for the user and if set up properly help them find what they want. If Amazon, Netflix and other such web sites can do this, Bethesda can. Of course they would have to hire an outside company as they can't code themselves out of a digital paper bag.
  11. HE is correct. They moved from their forumla. I played Fallout 3 well after completing it mutiple times just to explore. It took me years to find the friendly Supermutant. Same for other content that was found well after playing many times previously played. Fans want their games. Games like the formula he mentionend in the video
  12. Maybe good news on the horizon?
  13. I guess everybody has to stop getting a thrill from the vibrations from their phones and pagers now. LOL So far I hear only the terriorist have been hit. That is pretty surgical strike IMO. Also nobody (goverments) seem to be condeming the actions. Private people are but not goverments. Likely they are jellious and wanting to figure out how they can do this themselvves
  14. Can you hear me now?
  15. Maybe they also have quotas for hiring? Even worse, promotions? I wasn't impressed with the person in charge of the Secret Service during the investigational questioning. Another agency with hiring quotas.
  16. So... we have to go all the way back to Fallout New Vegas and/or Fallout 3 or Oblivion and Morrowind to get a functional Bethesda RPG game that can be modded. Seriously? Games that are almost 10 years old or older being "patched" and causing more trouble than it fixes.
  17. That is unless they re-use the music that they had in previous games. Tweak a bit maybe but keep the basics. Basically rip off the old games to try to make the new game meaningful.
  18. Good lord. Run the game without mods! Are you crazy? If the unofficial patch fixes it, then, likely I had it fixted the entire time I played that game. You are correct. I likely had mods that made that work properly like a metric shit ton of other stuff work properly. Or at least better.
  19. I'll have to check that out when I play Skyrim.. Which is when hell freezes over I don't remember that. was it like that from the beginning? Or perhaps they slipped that in during one of there updates.
  20. Linux is moving towards immutable OS for general desktop users. It would be like downloading a chrome OS and then selectng your packages. Fedora has a version of this called Silverblue. It has been discussed for some time at least a year or more abut Unbuntu moving to immutable. The issue with "Snap" is it is unbuntu. it can be open but Unbuntu controls the entire ecosystem. Also IMO it sucks. It is slower to start and uses more resources at least feels like it to me. Flatpacks is better IMO. I use old computers and not have a problem with Flatpack or distro downloads but Snaps were more of a problem. As for stories, I seen many of the stories mentioned about this. I didn't hear about the Shaman and the antiwhite for RedHat. I did hear they were in troubles but I didn't read into it. Use Debian is the best advice I can state. Mint is an easy to use for noobs. Debian is much better and less bullshit. Arch is great but you should know more about linux to use Arch. IMO at least. He is 100% accurate about Linus he is awesome. He has helped protect linux.
  21. They are chickens I have easily and readily stated that I played various games. Sometimes they were good enough for me. I played .. actually tried Starfield as some people I know played it. They seemed to like it so I gave it my own check and found it was utter trash. There has to be something going on with that game. It doesn't make sense except for the xbox subscription and they giving it to people. That is liklley the reason for a portion of Starfield #s. People can jump in and fuck around for an afternoon without any real committment. I can't do that now as I don't have the subscription for xbox anymore with some of their bullshit. Haven't turned it on for the past couple of months and even got one of the games I liked once it popped up on sale on Steam. Slightly off topic. How good is the companies offerings (that made witcher I forget the name right now) Is it worth buyijng a game from them instead of Steam/Origin and whatever other bullshit ?
  22. Just when you thought it couldn't get worse.... Also, who the fuck actually plays Elder Scrolls Online? I thought that was a dead project.
  23. I have actually started to look to the games that are an outrage to the left community. If they bitch about it likely it is at least a properly made game. Hogwarts the monkey game that just came out etc. hell even Robocop which was bitched about (not as much as it wasn't a AAA game ) was good for a decent amount of play through. If it has woke, or better to indicated the more wokeness it has, the less good it is. the more crap it is.
