All sorts of people exist. Just wasn’t sure if it was a common sentiment.

People doing long youtube videos were calling for unreal engine often?

Maybe it is because of the online spaces I visited like nexusmods or skyrimmods, but switching to unreal isn’t a common request I’ve seen.

I remember there being more disappointment when hearing that CDPR would be moving to unreal for their future games.

Of course, different online spaces dictate the reality people are most exposed to and Im going to guess devs might be more active on places like Twitter and Tiktok with it having more reach? Which is going to lean towards more dumb and toxic takes with shortened character limits and opportunity to directly harass people.

It seems you are insulted at the general idea of having suggestions given, and fall to subjective claims for your argument and throw in insults like saying I sound machine translated.

Doesn’t seem like you ever wanted a discussion in the first place but to vent.

This seems to complete dismiss the existence of mods which for pc gamers some find hard to go back to the vanilla version.

Which overturns the idea with it not being concepts but actual ideas to solutions put out by people who weren’t part of development.

I think proposing a completely different engine is different from gameplay balancing suggestions.

Which that article doesn’t even seem to be fixating on, but discussing the creative side.

Tech channels get more scrutiny because their reputation lives and dies by how credible they are as opposed to being purely entertainment.

I trusted him less after he chose to stick with PIA after they got bought by Kape which is a company that had a history of distributing malware and adware

The issue is who he sold it to — the notorious creator of some pernicious data-huffing ad-ware, Crossrider. The UK-based company was cofounded by an ex-Israeli surveillance agent and a billionaire previously convicted of insider trading who was later named in the Panama Papers. It produced software which previously allowed third-party developers to hijack users’ browsers via malware injection, redirect traffic to advertisers and slurp up private data.

Why would I trust someone’s hardware and software opinions if that’s the sponsor they stuck with back then?

Never hears of Drew, but looks like he’s just a comedian? Not like his content is giving out product recommendations under the guise of being an expert who can be trusted.

LTT is an advertising channel to me. For their merch or sponsors. Modern day infomercials for people who are entertained by ads hosted by personalities.

Are modders considered players or devs? Lot of mods have fixed the problems I had with games. So modders at least are not only identifying the problem but providing the solution themselves.

But, they are kind hybrid of being a player first but also taking on the role of devs due to having the technical skills to make solutions a reality.

I got a 3DS and DSi not too long ago to play games on, so I’m more likely to go backwards and get old tech to play timeless classics than stream new games.

If you want to get the game wouldn’t you want to avoid further trailers to avoid getting stuff spoiled?

Is this the first Avengers since Endgame? Been completely out of the loop when it comes to MCU last few years with the last MCU film I saw being No Way Home.

Just saying moving away from Sony to PC doesn’t prove Sony’s point, since they are removing physical knowing people will stay on their consoles and buy their digital games.

Last thing they want is for people to move to PC, since they went as far as to discontinue future exclusives there. They don’t care about digital games on PC. Just digital for their console.

Prove the point that if a system is digital consumers prefer to do it on hardware that is open and can be assembled from parts you choose, run any programs you want, and run any OS you want?

Versus locked down hardware that doesn’t let you install competing storefronts, programs, and is able to implement paid multiplayer because the hardware ia so locked down?

Yeah, decades of compatibility PC games have across hardware over the years is hard for consoles to match.

Even when they have backwards compatibility they are stuck to the performance and resolution cap from the previous gen if the devs didn’t go back to improve it like Red Dead Redemption 2 still being capped at 30. Or Bloodborne.

Steam and Epic run on open hardware where people can install it on devices they assembled themselves, and run it on different operating systems.

Difference is open hardware versus an ecosystem that tries to lock down their hardware, prevent installation of unapproved programs, and prevents competing storefronts.

What bothers me is that all the data goes back to meta.

I’m glad I dont know who he is and I will continue to not know him.

These days it seems like the internet is more pleasant the less influencers you know, and most aren’t worth knowing any further about.

I think the past where people’s awareness of public figures was much more distant was a healthier time. Like knowing the famous athlete or actor, but nothing further about their lives and not feeling like “you know them” because they called our your username or liked your comment and not being able to send them a direct message.

I wish it were possible to just flash something else on it like you can on smartphones, and get rid of all the meta stuff on it.

Seens like the same thing to me since whatever meta calls themselves its meta as a corporation that creeps me out.

Looks like I’m never getting into VR for the same reason I didn’t years back. Price continues to be expensive, and only cheap options are meta which is a big no.
