BREAKING: Activision QA workers have voted to authorise a strike with contract negotiations stalling after two years "After nearly two years of bargaining, repeated delays, and a refusal to meaningfully address key issues, we believe collective action is necessary."

Lol I can imagine and I don't want to yuck on somebody else's yum but I didn't find the prices enticing enough for what they realistically offe. I'd rather stay in a cheap, semi decent hotel and use the rest of the money eating and visiting a cool city or island

I was thinking about going to a cruise ship for my vacations but this video, as well as the obscene prices I recently found out about, were enough reason for me to reconsider lol

It's worth playing if you don't mind extremely linear single player games with ridiculously good visuals. The hatred and unfair comparisons to Dead Spaces are way overblown in my opinion. The DLC on the other hand is just bad and unsatisfying so I would only recommend buying the base game

Hmm, wouldn't this be a copyright violation given the fact DLSS 5 is proprietary tech? It sort of made sense with freely available mods like RenoDX but putting this inside a pay-walled app might get the creator in legal trouble, although I could be totally wrong about that

"Don't engage" is such a hard lesson and it took me a lot of years to learn it. Im still tempted! Sometimes people say the most frustrating shit in the world and it just feels like being unacceptably passive to just let it go, but thats the trap. You're immediately judged harsher by replying at all.

And for the love of god, KEEP THE PEDAL TO THE METAL. Polling shows the GOP on the ropes. Stop infighting, stop falling for stupid bait, go for the killshot. We are THIS CLOSE to seriously wounding this fascist-adjacent regime and setting up a D pres in 2028 for success. Stop being fucking stupid.

Suicide Silence is killing it with these new singles that feel like a true comeback to their late 2000s era (which I still think was their best). Graceless has quickly become my most anticipated album of the year

Yes, me endlessly ranting about anarchism while on a cruise ship in a vid ABOUT how exploitative the cruise industry is that Americans take part in while pretending to be leftist WOULD make me a hypocritical douche. It’s almost as if there was some sort of commentary we were making there… hmm…

It's a case of "right person at the right place and the right time". The service weapon and the board tend to favor extremely powerful parautilitarians for the role of Director, which Jesse just so happens to be thanks to Polaris.

This is no replacement for the 2023 remake, of course. The model can only do so much when the engine it's applied to has a low polygon count, but even in its current state, the results have amazed me quite a lot.

I know DLSS 5 is quite a controversial piece of tech, but i feel like the potential is there for it to be quite transformative for games visuals if tuned properly. I started to mess with it by applying it to the original Dead Space and the results are really impressive.

Games beaten in 2026 #64 Quake: Dawn of the Machine Not only was it rad to get a new expansion for a 30 year old game, it's some of the best official content ever created for Quake. They do insane things with the engine and it's filled with all sorts of creative new enemies and tricks.

This is my stance. Only share stuff that is bad if it is accompanied with some form of tangible action, or (rarely) if there's real insight that helps us better understand the thing. I never share posts that quote dunk some villain's words either, don't get why folk do their work for them doing this

It's impressive to me just how many people can just confidently say shit on social media about topics they have zero personal experience with and get mad when actual experts on the matter challenge them on their own BS. It's hard to tell if they're just bad actors, morons or a combination of both.

As much as I’d love this to be true, it’s fundamentally not how the stock market works. The stock market does not “react to customer retention” - it is very specifically focused on projected YoY growth. Existing customers are useless unless they can be converted into growth.

Gotcha. In my particular case it'll always be either or since I try to not play 2 recent AAA games simultaneously, mostly for budgetary reasons but I also try that the other game is either indie or retro to spice things up.

To me the choice is easier 'cause I don't have a Switch. Also the fact I played the remedyverse games recently in preparation plays a big factor as well 😂

Now that the US has kidnapped Maduro, stolen Venezuela's oil, looted its gold, and taken its uranium, there's no more coverage on poverty, human rights, the shift to a democratic system, the economy, the lifting of sanctions etc It's almost as if those aspects were only used to justify intervention

The best part is every time I tried to quit after that prompt, the game immediately crashed. Probably a bug with the remaster but it was funny nonetheless 😂

points at sign: THE GAMES INDUSTRY’S CUSTOMER IS THE STOCK MARKET, NOT THE GAMER Live service games are seen as ‘worth the risk’ because when one blows up (Roblox, Fortnite, GTA Online) it makes so much money that it covers all previous failures and more. What gamers say is irrelevant to this.

The last 2 rituals of power are my favorites, primarily because they're purely combat-oriented and have more enemy variety compared to the first 2 objective-based ones.

Dawn of The Machine is a great expansion for Quake and it's probably its most replayable. I'm currently playing my second run on Nightmare difficulty while also hunting for all the secrets and i'm having a blast.

My biggest misconception was, because of the Satanic Panic of the 80s, that metal and D&D kids would forever turn against the right because of how evangelicals and talk show hosts (including Saint Oprah) hunted them. But it has been almost the exact opposite; they have almost all jumped on board

This video exposes a really important point that my LATAM followers know all to well. Trump really does just tweet it out. What the Liberal think tankers, pundits and Democrats sold as a fight for human rights is nothing more than good old US imperialist domination of the region.

Selfishly I have a sort of ‘fine, do it bro’ attitude about this because, frankly, I could sustain myself for decades just playing games in my backlog, many of which I still own physically. If I never buy a new AAA game in my life, it’s convenient, if anything. Just give me the excuse, chief.

I’ve been saying this for the last three years - Big Video Game is 1000% pushing towards an all streaming future. People acted like “This Is An Xbox” was the dumbest idea of all time, but it was actually just M$, once again, trying something a little too early. They’re all gonna do it.
