I still think it’s crazy that the same guy who created Wikipedia also founded Fandom, and I believe is still involved. Considering what Wikipedia is and its utility, it almost seems like an incompatible ideology to have anything to do with both at the same time. I guess he’s got to make money somehow…
This gives off Twitch Plays Pokemon energy. I love it.
I still need to get around playing the DLC but I feel like I’d need to watch a video to get caught up on the story. That said, yeah, the gameplay and story is absolutely incredible. Perfectly-executed mystery box.
Nice try NSA’s machine learning algorithm!
Of course it’s from the Midwest. If my time over there meant anything, they sure do love ‘pop’ especially Mountain Dew. lol
This kind of thing makes me so angry. If the game is so old, how is it hurting anyone to reverse engineer it and keep its tiny group of fans happy. I know the answer. It’s rhetorical.
I can’t believe it’s only 11 years old. It already felt like it had a lot of history when I played it back in 2012.
I’m doing summer research with a focus on ML. I just built my computer and picked AMD because of the price, but did not now that Nvidia was the one to pick at the moment if that’s what I wanted it for. I don’t know enough about hardware and could use the school labs anyway, but I should have done better research (ironic heh).
I literally just bought domains off of Google Domains last month and this past week they announce they’re shutting it down. I am so mad.
I just hope they’re done acquiring publishers after ATVI; they have enough studios. I get how unlikely that is.
Yeah and we can all knock their sports division all we want but it brought in money. With this change and in the possible outcome that they’re not out to be bought, we’ll have to see if the originals side will become a lot more risk-averse and pivot more into the GaaS market than they already were.
I’m interested to see where this goes.
The cynical side of me says they’re doing this sell one of the halves off to one of the other publishers. The optimist in me hopes this leads to one more publisher in this space; we sorely need less consolidation.
I was thinking this would be a link to Alan Wake 2 but was pleasantly surprised. This is awesome.
Same. Normally I go into huge games with lots of player agency with a walkthrough sitting next to me because I want the ‘perfect ending’. I think with this one I’m just going to get lost in it and whatever happens happens. It looks so good.
Don’t forget about FreeCiv!
Thank you for the suggestion! I subscribed to one or both but I think my request to subscribe is pending. I’ll see about being more active in both. :)
It might make sense for me to wait until I get to 50 as well. After I read these awesome suggestions, I went into the game and it looks like it would cost me $26,000 just to respec. I don’t like that the game makes experimentation prohibitive, but then again I don’t know how precious money drops will get heading into end game.
Druids are cool! My buddy plays one but I always feel better when he’s in the party due to the sheer tank. At least I think the bear ability is tanky.
Yeah I need to be less shy about respecs–I’ve stuck with the same one since the start. I really dig that AOE build for Rogue in that link you sent. Looks like I got a couple of experiments I could try tonight.
Oh my god this looks incredible haha. Not that poison isn’t viable (I’ve been struggling), but this actually looks like it would even help me while playing solo. Going to give this a shot, thank you.
I can’t say I agree. It’s more likely they see the money they’d be leaving on the table and it helps that this makes them look more amiable for future acquisitions.
