Probably because he expected for that sort of money for the only reaction to be people jizzing themselves

I dunno if you follow car stuff much. Chip shortage during COVID affected how many cars could be made. Manufacturers saved them for high margin high value cars. Already there is a smaller market for them. Plus, charging infrastructure in some countries is behind to the point where a lot of people are sticking to petrol. That’s the wider picture.

On top of that VW made a really good EV platform and then screwed it up with a cheap interior, glitchy software, and frustrating laggy haptic buttons everywhere on cars that weren’t exactly cheap. Why bother with that when you can get a Kia Niro (as an example) with more features, a massive warranty, more range, better interior for the same or less money?

Too bad many of the people in my generation who grew up with GTA games stopped caring since we’re all middle aged now anyway.

Also the impact of a new rockstar game today is very different from what it was in the 2000s. There’s so much to play now that waiting a year isn’t that big a deal when you have a giant library of Steam games.

Heh same for me too

I mean this is probably why they’ve given up on making good games if they can make money anyway

This is also mentioned in the article

Premonition rather than prediction really

Literally what regulation is for though it has become a dirty word ever since businesses have essentially started running the world in place of monarchs

That’s more yak and mac really

Yeah pretty much what I would expect from a business oriented website to offer counterpoints as ‘beliefs’ so that they are dismissed as ramblings from crazy people

For the hardware encoding side it used to be true before OBS introduced better AMD encoder support. I have a 6800XT and it works just fine for streaming casually, though I agree that if you stream professionally then Nvidia is the better option.

I’m not familiar with advanced access but I suppose the worry would be whether the game could be changed between then and the final release. If it can, then your play time might not represent the final product.

Bat Out of Hell, Meatloaf

That’s funny because I always understood the game and didn’t get the downvotes but this maybe explains it a bit!

I’m kind of surprised at the reactions honestly. He’s even said this in interviews before, it’s a fun bit he does to comedically over-analyse any time a new sci-fi film comes out. I think he stopped or considered stopping for a while precisely because people took out the pitchforks and he didn’t want to ruin people’s fun, but I think the fact that many people enjoyed it swayed him to keep going.

I would re think your seating posture. You’re probably trapping a nerve or something which means your posture is not relaxed. Also consider alternating between sitting and standing especially if you’re playing electric.

It is a good idea, it just needs to be the norm which it isn’t at the moment.

Can’t say that I’ve ever considered the thought until now
