Why would they fire the team instead of just moving everyone to other projects? Aren’t the tales you hear about projects being canned and the whole team made redundant specifically due to not having the money to do the project or because some new bigwig is trying to cut costs?
Does whatever country this is posted from not have a minimum wage? Screenshot says USA, I thought they did have one?
Maybe this will finally make people realise that using an unencrypted corpo-controlled messenger for all of their communications is a bad idea
A workaround doesn’t excuse terrible design!
Are you arguing that it’s good design to have invisible characters behave differently or am I missing your point?
Do all three of them still treat tabs and spaces as functionally different? If so then they’re all in the bottom category.
Are you accessing it not from a UK IP? Always defaults to GBP for me.
Ah space exploration/hunting x restaurant management game hybrid, second only to hell city-builder/management game x evil god game hybrid as my favourite genre of game
TimeSplitters 4. If they’d have stopped baiting us with teaser art and promises of someone new buying the bones of Free Radical every few years then it wouldn’t hurt so much.

I think you can do both of those with BotW too
Gaming is becoming less and less accessible and more and more of a luxury.
Lots of people do their gaming on their phone or PC. And on the subject of phones, look at the top-spec models: they cost thousands, because some people have the disposable income to burn. There are still plenty of affordable options available if you don’t fixate on having the latest best everything.
Interestingly I’d say the complete opposite: BotW was my fave and I feel I could replay it in quite a different style (e.g. trying to beat it without any dungeons, trying to 100% it), whereas the others are all very linear and my only option is to play it again in the same way.
(Obviously I don’t need to pay any additional money to do either though!)
Pretty soon you won’t be able to buy a Switch
A new one, but pretty soon the market will be flooded with second hand switches
ReactOS. Or TempleOS if you’re feeling holy.
We’d get a pretty good game format OS—if the players could agree to come together—and then licence that out. Just like we do with Blu-ray, just like we do with the compact disk—and let people compete on content.
I know this is the most Lemmy comment it’s possible to make, but oh, if only there were an OS that already exists that you could run games on and that didn’t even need licencing out!
I’d love this comment to be a sticky post on every new thing announcement. Trouble with us humans is we like to really get into a thing that’s completely out of our control, and then we get very upset when it goes in a direction we don’t like. Being able to take a step back and say “ah well, guess that’s not for me anymore” is much better for your own mental health than getting angry at consumerism.
I think putting something like (Dunky) in the title would probably have helped
I guess it depends on how big the company is, if they have a long-standing team and work on multiple projects or if they’re mainly contractors brought in for one big project. I’d hope a company like Supermassive have enough other projects going on that nobody’s losing their job over this.
