I think it’s just placebo. It’s probably because it looks so close to a Rare FPS that my brain expects nausea and I thus get nauseous.

Man watching the trailer immediately gave me simulator sickness. GoldenEye and PerfectDark always made me nauseous because of the low frame rate and the single analog stick controls. Guess my brain is still traumatized and watching something that looks like GoldenEye triggers it.

Aren’t they building an LEO constellation backed by the EU and ESA?

This guy made Box2D before, a high performant 2D physics engine that is free and open source and has been used in a shit ton of 2D games. So ofcourse devs are excited with this 3D physics engine. Yes it’s free and open source as well. It’s deterministic across different CPUs, which Unreal’s Chaos physics engine and Unity’s PhysX physics engine are not. This means that simulations with the exact same starting conditions will end up having the same result no matter the device the sim is running on. This a huge benefit for multiplayer games. And benchmarks say it’s performant. Someone already implemented it in Unity and it’s faster than the built in PhysX engine in most cases.

It’s basically a free alternative to Havok. Havok is also a high performant deterministic physics engine, but costs tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars per game to use. Havok is what many triple A studios use in their games. Like Breath of the Wild uses Havok.

Okay it’s like watching a movie at the cinema and finishing it and then demanding a refund because it was only 2 hours.

No theater give refunds to people who have finished watching the entire movie.

Someone should make cases for mini NVMe SSDs to turn them into cartridges. NVMe SSD are technically plug and play and with an NVMe extension cable you could move the slot to the side or top of the case. Expensive as fuck to use NVMe for a single game, but much faster than SD Cards and they don’t wear down as fast and will retain the data longer when unpowered.

Even pressed discs can rot. Like many WB Blu-Rays were made with a faulty process and many will rot in the next few decades.

Bullets are actually polycrystalline

Sony lost a shit ton of money with their live service games projects. Sony execs probably told the PlayStation division to find a way to reduce cost and control the damage or heads will roll.

Piracy is necessary. I remember back in the days in school that you had to turn in essays in Word and do presentations with PowerPoint. Like how the fuck would a kid from a family that could barely afford a used PC be able to get Office without piracy.

Same with Photoshop, Illustrator, Maya etc. Basically the entire workforce for entire industries exist thanks to piracy.

Nooooo that’s illegal.

you can sell a physical disc, can’t sell the game installer from GOG (at least not legally)

they would put his head in jar if they could.

Well at least Nintendo themselves still releases full game cartridges and it’s not like you buy a Switch for third party games anyway. Nintendo only introduced the Gamekey card because third party publishers, especially Acti and Ubi, were releasing their own version on Switch 1 and not using consistent packaging labels to tell a gamekey from a full game cartridge apart so probably confused many consumers. Hence why Nintendo created an official version.

UMD you mean, i don’t think MiniDisk were ever used to distribute games or even general software.

First panel should be “My rights are in danger” and then “I’m poor as fuck” and the last panel “Let’s vote religious fascists into power so my daddy can pay less taxes”. Since the Kate Winslet character is a rich elitist.

Yes but not very often and not very deep until the games are years old. Though they never go on permanent sale like in the past with Nintendo’s Player’s Choice line.

But since Nintendo still releases physical game cards you can buy them used for cheaper.

If you want the Switch 2 for the latest Nintendo games then the money savings with a PC handheld don’t even matter. Unfortunately there are no PC games that can scratch that Nintendo itch. Except for 2D platformers. No Zelda, 3D Mario and Animal Crossing type of game on PC ever comes close to the real thing.

Sure you can wait for emulation, but the Switch 2 needs to get a jailbreak first who knows how long that will take and then emulators will take sometime to achieve playable performance.

Nah they are lobbyists. They know what they are doing. They know that legislators have no clue what it all means and have no time to find out what these lobbyists are saying is true. It’s just typical lawyer talk subterfuge
