Cool. After 300+ hours in this game I’ve really been looking forward to something new to mix it up.
Side note: They REALLY need to get someone else on English translations. Like the text in game, this trailer is kinda… ALMOST right but definitely not right, grammatically speaking.
That we have the technology to make a paper towel dispenser that works well, and that we don’t do that very much because it’s cheaper to make one that works poorly, are not incompatible.
When we get mass market flying cars, we’ll get incredibly shitty flying cars that crash all the time, about a week later.
ok but that picture is clearly one 18" pizza vs two 18" pizzas that have been hit by a shrink ray, meaning the two on the right have twice as much nutrition as the one on the left.
Yeah. The problem here is he’s talking to those people–which is valid–while pretending he’s never heard of the real issue: No matter the reason, the game is not good. Y’all already put it on sale because it’s not good.
You have the opportunity right now to tell us why, if you want, but you didn’t do that.
Ultimately it doesn’t matter the reason why.
You don’t get to pout and say “you don’t know how hard this is” when you’re selling your game for money. You’re not giving it away. You’re not doing charity work here. Make a better game or stop talking. Nobody out there paid $70 because they wanted your opinion about it. They paid $70 because they wanted a good game. They didn’t get it.
And yeah, it is hard. Even with all that money and all those developers, it’s hard. But nobody wants to be scolded because they experienced a bad game. That’s not your customer’s fault.
If you watched John Wick and came away with the impression that JW cares about individual guns, I don’t even know what movie you were watching. Dude ditches guns faster than an empty water bottle.
It’s basically always this. Your phone in the same room with someone else’s phone. This is stronger around christmas when people are looking for gift ideas, so they push this mind control shit on you even harder.
It’s not actually listening to you–that’s been debunked multiple ways–but what it’s doing instead is arguably worse.
I kind of hate when a meme is built from something I already know about because it’s impossible to appreciate a mid-tier gag like this when I know the point of the original sketch.
John Cleese, here overlaid with Elon Musk’s head, is the protagonist in this sketch. He’s the one who’s actually being honest about what’s going on. Michael Palin, the vendor on the left, is lying about whether or not the bird he sold is dead. That’s the joke. That’s the point of the sketch. The humor isn’t that John Cleese killed the bird, it’s that Michael Palin sold him a dead bird.
This meme would make sense if Musk bought an already dead platform, but that’s not what happened. Twitter was at its peak when he took the helm. He’s actually the one that killed it.
lol they did, that’s what webapps RUN ON. TBH I don’t get the original complaint. Lots of people have bad webapps; back when native apps were the norm, lots of people had bad native apps. It’s not really a problem with the runtime framework.
I’ll stand there and face the crowd with you. I loved Force Awakens and TLJ. Then when I heard what RoS was like, I didn’t even go see it. I still haven’t.
Are you saying that people with DS shouldn’t be alive, or that they should be executed instead of jailed when they are guilty of a crime? Both are incredibly sketchy opinions but one of them is WAY more… what’s the word… Third Reich?
I almost never buy games at full price, but that doesn’t mean they’re pricing them incorrectly, from the viewpoint of the company that made the game. It’s a deliberate marketing strategy that works. It’s sometimes called the “skimming” strategy of pricing. (It has nothing to do with embezzlement.) It just means charging the highest price the market will bear at a certain time and ratcheting it down, and at each notch, finding a new market.
If 20% of your market will buy the game at $50, and 80% will buy the game a $25, you probably still want to charge 50 first and then bring it down to 25 gradually, as this will maximize your revenue.
I’m no capitalist, but maximizing a value function is just math.
