Teardown is a really solid game under the technical gimmick. It plays more like a puzzle game, but way more open ended.

GameStop could go completely out of business and they would still manage to find a way to continue the copium.

Don’t worry. The meme stock bros will come up with a new stupid narrative about how this was always part of the plan and how no one actually believed the NFT marketplace was the catalyst for moass. Just trust the plan and keep holding.

Portal 64 uses a proprietary library by Nintendo (namely libultra). This library cannot be freely used, and Nintendo can sue anyone for using it without their permission. Portal is Valve’s intellectual property, so there’s a risk that Valve can be dragged in into this if Nintendo takes legal action.

Valve doesn’t want to risk dealing with Nintendo’s lawyers, so to be on the safe side they ask for Portal 64 to be taken down instead. The risks might be slim, but Valve don’t want to take any chances with Nintendo.

“Just the right amount of water”

I don’t think Sean makes as many public appearances anymore, so probably safe. But who knows what he will do.

E3 was more than trailers. It was also a chance for journalists to meet game developers and try their games. That aspect died when game developers realized they could just reach the consumer directly without the journalist middleman, and consumers kept up to date with games without journalists.

How is that going to help artists getting paid?

It was the same for GTA5 a decade ago or so. Same with GTA4. The trailer for a new GTA is a big thing.

Seems like they’ve fixed it now, but there was a time when they had proof of stake without withdrawal functionality

Haven’t checked it in a while, but is it still impossible to withdraw staked coins?

That’s basically it, except everything is darn expensive.

Disney buying Microsoft would be fun

Why are you having fun? You’re not supposed to have fun. Wahh!

What’s the half life of Half Life sequels?

I’m still waiting for Half Life 2: Episode 2: Part 2

People paid money because they were promised a finished game by 2014. It’s still nowhere near finished. It hasn’t had an estimated release date for years.

Sure, if you enjoy the game at its current state, fine. No one should take that joy away from you.

Tying NFTs to a physical object is quite pointless. It can make no guarantees that it’s the only NFT for that physical object, or if the physical object even exists.

You’re right. It will evolve into a different even more stupid scam on the blockchain. And people will fall for it again.

It’s hard to communicate it to the consumer. Far from everybody follows this discourse surrounding the game. Maybe someone buys BG3 just for the split screen capability, just to disappointingly find out that the Xbox version doesn’t support it. Especially when they already have paid full price for the game.
