Now I want someone to create an entirely pointless version of Wavacity running with Electron.

I did this with a controller for the longest time. Specifically, the thing was not first/third person byt “do I have a visible crosshair or not”, as that defined if I am directly moving the camera/head, or if the crosshair is like a laser pointer I move on the screen and the character looks towards it.
I finally had to decide one way or the other with Monster Hunter: World as the sling requires switching between the two rapidly and while you actually can set separate inverts for first and third person, it means you can’t “follow” a monster smoothly while switching to the sling, you need to also quickly flick the stick to the other direction. Took me roughly 20 hours of rather chaotic gameplay for it to finally “click” in an instant.
I chose non-inverted as it was easier to imagine a crosshair than it was to ignore one that existed.
There actually are updates to it as for the last three years Microsoft has continued to patch it under the commercial “Extended Security Update” program - that only ended in January 2023.
You just couldn’t get them as a home user without doing a lot of tweaking on your own.
Because why not, maybe someone will buy it from you as they don’t know better, and you cash in the profit. It doesn’t cost anything to post something on eBay after all.
Some of them don’t even have the thing in the first place, if someone buys the listing they go get one from Amazon or a local shop and send it.
If you actually want to know what people are willing to pay for something though, look at the completed auctions.
Because when you are giant studio using Unreal Engine there really is no excuse for poor performance or porting. But when you are a (relatively to Epic or Sony/Microsoft etc) a tiny team building a game using the engine you came up with yourself with its roots somewhere around 2010-ish , back when 6 cores was a brand new thing and have been tweaking it ever since, you do get some slack if it doesn’t multithread perfectly.
Also it’s a Larian game, so not only will it have all the thousands of bugs fixed (literally, the first patch had over a thousand fixes), you’ll probably get the Extended Enhanced Definitive Divine Edition that rewrites half the quests and adds a bunch of new ones.
Countless services exist where you can buy captcha solving, though currently it’s done by actual humans in developing countries for tiny pay. Yet another job that’s going to soon be replaced by AI, though this time it almost certainly will result in some people starving to death.
And by “after they’ve thoroughly exhausted all options to continue making money there”, you mean that they stopped royalty payments and investments Mach last year and have been trying to sell the business since then in an effort to avoid taking the massive financial hit of bankrupting and abandoning the 107 franchises and 68 restaurants they own.
Which is the sensible thing to do, as otherwise you just give them all as a free gift to the Russians.
But there would be no-one to do so. In a copyrightless world George R.R Martin would need to have another job to pay the bills and wouldn’t be able to dedicate his time for writing, and HBO or anyone else pouring massive amounts of money to create shows also wouldn’t be able to exist as they would gain no profit from what they do as their creations would also be in the public domain. Unless you live in an utopia with universal income and replicators that completely eradicate any need for money or ownership of anything, copyright itself as a concept is vital, the issue is just how corrupted the current system has become - which is mostly due to the greed of Disney.
To give an example, if all books were automatically public domain HBO could have created Game of Thrones without paying George R.R. Martin a single cent for it, then publish and sell “Game of Thrones: The Book”, aka the entire Song of Ice and Fire series, again without paying him anything and stealing all of his profit in the process.
Not yet. But mysk has said he wants to make X like WeChat, which has payment and sending money as one of the key features.
If the service is decent enough with servers close by, it really isn’t bad at all. In a PCgamer test, the input latency for Metro Exodus and Destiny 2 went from 46ms and 51ms local to 96ms and 75ms from GeForce Now, and 179ms and 129ms from Stadia.
For comparison, back when Tekken 7 was released on the PS4, it had 120ms of input lag.
Usually they don’t. Something like Horizon Forbidden West credits almost 3500 people even though Guerilla Game has less than 500 employees, most of the rest is absolutely massive bloat from different outsourced teams and Sony departments - like the “Head of Opportunity Markets Business Operations Tim Stokes from Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc.: Global Business Operations” was undoubtedly very important for the development of the game.
As for Baldurs Gate 3, Larian Studios currently has 450 employees in 6 different locations, so they are actually around the same size as Guerilla. I wouldn’t be surprised if the credits end up being well above a thousand people (D:OS2 has around 500 credits even though Larian back then had only 130 people).
Youtube knows I have subscribed to 515 channels, I have liked 2364 videos and favourited 685. It already floods the recommended videos with others based on "Users who follow\ enjoy videos of ".
They for sure do not require my watch history to be able to recommend videos to me.
The Java Team posted that they would be leaving and stopping official communications on reddit.
It’s simple really, the thing he owns is x.com, so he’s just gonna… oh bugger, XCOM.
IIRC GTX 700 was the last nVidia generation to have XP driver support so you probably wouldn’t be able to get it working properly anyway.
Changed to X Æ A-XII because numbers weren’t legal, pronounced “X Ash A Twelve”, nicknamed “X”. And the second was Exa Dark Sideræl (pronounced sigh-deer-ee-el), now known just as “Y” or, according do Grimes, “?”, because it’s pronounced “Why”.
So Musk has children called X and Y, two companies called SpaceX and X, and Tesla has Models S, 3 (E), X, Y.
Why Musk? No, not you, I’m asking your dad.
Because it’s doesn’t make enough money.
The first Fallout barely had anything, but Fallout 2 sure is something else having specific perks, traits and statistics about sex, a bunch of people you can have sex with and some you can get pregnant, and you can work as a prostitute or a porn actor. Or force some of your companions to do so.
