  • It’s hard to block mergers based on a company involved being a monopoly if none of the companies involved are monopolies or will become monopolies.

    Regulators have to come up with a different set of rules to block “large but not monopolistic mergers” without also just effectively protecting the actual leader in a given industry from competition.















  • Bethesda’s seeming disdain for anything that could be considered a fun and seamless mechanic is frustrating.

    Or that the technology available doesn’t really make this type of setup reasonable?

    Star Citizen is trying to do this and it’s been how long with how much money spent?

    Would Starfield be a better game if they sacrificed the quests/content/companions and just made a game that was more like Elite Dangerous or No Man’s Sky?

    That’s fun, that’s what I wanted, and I don’t think it’s really expecting that much.

    I mean, CIG has been trying to make a game that does what you want for the last 13 years and they aren’t close yet. Maybe it’s not as easy as you want it to be?
