I didn't really understand at the time why CIG even bothered to mention it though. I remember it being a nice feature in Guild Wars 2 in 2012. I assume it has been a feature in all mmos with slopes and rocks since and probably some prior.

Gamestar is probably the worst, with guys straight out advertising each new sale in the SC thread. Criticism on the project is silenced, of course. I would speculate they also took some marketing money from CIG, because the amount of shilling is pretty obnoxious.
This is the same magazine that paints itself as ,pro consumer’, calling out loot boxes or overpriced DLC, which makes it quite ironic.
You know, they say we Germans lack in the “critical thinking”-department, and when you take a look at the SC thread in the gamestar forum you are inclined to think that there is truth to it. So I’am not surprised that a lot of CIGs money comes from Germany. Some of the German backers are unbelievably naive and stupid, as if they want to be fleeced as some part of an abusive relationship or something. This is of course fueled by the community and advertising pieces from Gamestar and co.

mmorpg.com isn't much better. I haven't seen a truly negative piece about SC. The resident shills are fewer but just as loud as ever.

I doubt many people who use the term care about the subtleties, it's just the newest trendy term used to replace 'cuck' and 'beta' and in a year or so, there will be a new term.

It's the natural evolution of derogatory terms. Once the previous popular terms get called out for how truly terrible they are and get slowly removed by society people rush to the next set until the cycle repeats.

It's weird how we have such dizzying heights of altruism, and such debased, infernal levels of inhumanity, frequently expressed in a single individual. Such is the duality of man. Until we face our inner demons, how can we hope to exorcise them?

In conclusion, humans are a species of contrast.

Sucks rear end because 70% of my business is live event and festivals etc, the corporate work has increased but it's way less fun.
Had some heart breaking convos with venue owners since all this kicked off, man I feel for them

Same same. Same city too. The only decent paid work I had lined up finished today and I didn’t manage to meet the spec, so it’s a double lovely day for business and fun times.

Most certainly beer o clock for the next 48 hours.



All that said, my business might be looking super bleak but at least I’m not at loving “concierge level” investment in this poo poo show.

Give it another few weeks mind. Perhaps selling off all our kit and putting the cash into Idris’ will work out to be a better :airquote: long term investment :airquote:

The Angloshere is just decades behind in their misogynistic power levels. As a latino man I have heard their Spanish equivalents since I was a kid, and I am an old now. There are thesis to be written about the sudden online popularity of these terms and how they relate to the dissatisfaction among many men about their current place in society in English-speaking countries.

I'm still going with the somewhat cynical conspiracy theory that they're withholding SQ42 updates in preparation for a big marketing event.

quote:

Yep no way they have all those employees sitting around doing nothing like some suggest. They must be sitting on a ton of SQ42 stuff by now.

I have a feeling the new investors are probably involved in the lack of SQ42 updates, instead wanting it to be marketed like a traditional AAA title with a big ramping up of hype leading up in the months before release. There's no point in marketing the game to people who have already bought it. Showing too much of the game too soon obviously isn't good for sales at release otherwise publishers would be doing it. Yeah it sucks for backers who want more info, but it is what is it.

Its way older than that, Dark Souls 1 does it. Placing feet on steps is like, one of the fundamental use cases for IK.

That video itself is just a really smart, adaptive implementation.

As usual CIG are inventing things that are easily 15 years old.

I did not say "DS1 was the first game to do it", it was just an example of something years older than that video. I know. IK is really old tech.
