Nethack, a very deep and actively obtous game. If you want to figure it out yourself, its complexity is nearly on a level with dwarf fortress.
Outer Wilds does not fit 100 % your description, as it doesnt hate the player. But it is a game all about exploration and figuring stuff out yourself. And if you do things wrong, you die.
All Hail the Abh Empire!
I mean they are even right. If they would really believe in their ideas, they could throw money at us and we would be far more accepting of their LLM bullshit. But they aren’t, so they don’t.
Do birds worry about their hair? Well… They dont have hair, so probably not.
But do birds worry about their plumage?
Yeah, probably they do.
Because there are many examples of birds using their plumage to attract mates, best known is probably the peacock.
In short, my thinking is that you need sexual procreation and a certain minimum intelligence to care for their outward appearance (e.g. I don’t think ants care for outward looks). So probably all mammals and a lot of birds definitely do care “about their hair”. But insects and fish do not.
Memetic osmosis.
Lots of people know 42 is the answer of everything, but don’t know it comes from Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
I havent received any newsletter from GOG addressing their fuck up. So all this x crap is, is PR noise to placate those people, who already know about it and are looking for it, not a sincere apology and change of way.
Sad to learn really, so no more money to them it seems.
And the plot twist would be that all priest tokens have a mark.
Yep, was pretty alright as coop game.
But I seriously wished they finally let Amadeus, Pontius and Zora retire and let new heroes go. It is getting ridiculous to unlock the same stuff for the 6th time.
And now after watching the trailer: FINALLY. Now let’s just hope they manage to do the transition in a good way. In contrast to the 3D transition…
Yes, but they use not a small amount of psychological tricks to make you play it like a job.
“Single lunatic voted in” did a lot of damage exactly through unanimous vote. That’s how Orban stopped a lot of good things.
Unanimous vote can work with a group of maybe 5. With more than that and you always will have too much bickering and blocking.
Thing is: yes, not a beautiful face, but for sure an interesting and memorable one. I will not forget his character when I already forgot who pretty face #256 was.
I mean, we don’t want it in the hand of some entity that hallucinates, is detached from reality and doesnt care for human life, so Meh, can’t really be worse than now.
Thanks for checking the math, that is indeed an ambitious goal to reach.
Subnautica 1 and Below Zero together sold over 18 million copies, so reaching over 14 million with only one installment is doable with the bonus of being well known now, but still very ambitious.
And just to admit: yeah I also think the CEO did an overly stupid thing with that amount of money as bonus. But he also uses ChatGPT as legal advisor, so him being stupid is something we already knew.
Yeah, convenient. Just like the terrorist attacks right before the last German elections, which afterwards mysteriously stopped. But could also just be random chance of course. One data point is no data point and all.
I mean, you could see it as an investment? You know, by motivating their workers to create a very good product that then sells very well later when they are out of early access? Like a theoretical normal company should do?
From the articles I read: the three main developers didn’t deny that fact but said, they will give parts of their money to the others. And apparently they did do that for the initial money they got for selling the company to Krafton in the first place, so at least once they followed their word.
Yes, but the game was payrolled by Epic and wouldn’t even exist without them. Its different from those other instances where they threw money at a game at the end and bought the exclusivity.
Well, there are in some countries publicly owned companies, whose main goal isn’t profit generation, but providing a certain service (water or electricity provider, road work, public transport etc.) and only generate enough profit to keep it going. But those are not the majority and not the ones who are actively destroying our biosphere, so mostly not relevant.
Yep. And that is the difference between “not doing wrong” and “doing right”. Because in the latter’s case, you don’t die. Or at least… Its complicated
