Tim Schafer made Psychonauts, which was a pretty good Nicktoon despite the janky early aughts CGI.

It's a shame he's wasted his talents since then trying to make videogames because as much as his heart is in the right place he's not very good at it.

I do have to wonder how many quarters of below expectations record profit they can post before becoming effectively dead companies from having no developers left to shutter or investors pulling out en masse.

The hype around Apex Legends is absolutely bonkers. Like 500,000 people were watching the inaugural tournament on Twitch Rivals and the game loving came out eight days ago.

i thought there might still be an audience for a f2p battle royale that doesn't have weird vestigial non-shooter mechanics like fortnite but didn't realize it was this big

i guess because all the big streamers are from a fps background so it appeals to them and then it snowballs from there

also that tournament has like all the big twitch people in it anyway, so yeah of course its gonna have number just by virtue of inertia. if there was a competitive pooping tournament but they invited ninja and dr disrespect it'd pull big numbers also

The funniest part is that they basically knew heir game was a PR disaster and decided to release it without any hype cycle so that people could form their opinions by playing it instead of poopooing it for being a lootbox f2p BR from EA

It feels like a secret cut tf2 level where the gimmick is you have to pick garbage off the ground for 15 mins over and over instead of something fun like time travel. Im giving it time cause nobody wants to play edf5 lately.

I cant believe im playing a br. I should get back into fighters but its real hard to devote practice time with my toddler to watch all day. Sometimes she likes pushing the stick's buttons and watching what happens on screen for a few mins which is promising, but shes also a light sleeper and i cant play down the hall from her room. Maybe i'll buy some silent buttons i hear those really work. Maybe ill just keep playing this stupid br.

Now that Apex is more popular than Christianity, one hopes cooler heads prevail and they tune the pricing. $18 for a character skin is a real steep ask.
