Maybe Epic should stop fucking complaining and actually build something better. Valve needs a competitor.

IKR, the Epic store application is still a piece of shit meanwhile Valve has added a fuckton of features to theirs. Sweeney is a fucking retard and is the one that wants to hold back gaming. If he had his way everything would go through their Fortnite ecosystem. Fuck that noise.

Of course Sweeney likes AI slop since fortnite was AI slop before AI was even a thing

These people have no creativity. Everything is just a 1:1 copy of internet culture slop. They have no idea what it's like to put yourself in a different place and time to truly invent new cultures, people and politics. Everything is just projection of modernism's onto cool art assets.

This also shows just how...stupid? ignorant? whatever...entrenched?

the "new management" gives them a chance... gives them a direct thing(s) to fix...and they obviously /didnt/ and it was so bad that SHUTTING THE ENTIRE THING DOWN was better than "fixing it"

I mean Mass Effect “James Bond” as a concept could have had potential, but the trailer (if that is what they showed management) wasn’t the best. The music didn’t really fit the tone of the trailer, it really needed some tighter editing and more cinematic setup to better sell the “super agent” thing, and a better hint of the “hook” in the story to get people excited

I don't see how anyone could justify an LGBTQ flag or imagery 1000 years in the future where it's wholly acceptable to fuck gender-fluid aliens. The symbol would be meaningless.

Trailer would have been 100x better if it ended when liara revealed herself.

I still have a problem with the 600 gap.
like, sure "james bond" in ME.
first james bond film was 1954. dr. no 1962.

compare 1954 casino royale to 2006 casino royale.. 50 years.

or..
Film noir.
1940-1950

Cyberpunk 2077.

130 years.

Human nature won't change in 130 years, or 600...
But civilization and technology will.
ME universe would be unrecognizable within 200 years. nevermind 600.

Andromeda can justify it with cryosleep.

Turning Mass effect into starwars, or modern trek, where shit looks exactly the same 3000 years into the past/future is retarded.

phantom blade zero launched today

700k concurrent players LOL. sure, 95% of them are in china but that is insane. the recent gears of war game peaked at like 32k LOL. game costs $40 in china so thats already a minimum of like $40m its made, which is probably below the budget. should easily sell 5m copies within 24h.

western devs are so fucked

I'm sure they'd say there was a 'Dark Ages after the reaper war'... that still had enough free resources to build intergalactic teleportation.

Whether this was someone dictating 'Andromeda is canon, they need to be represented in the sequel' or the dreaded 'We have to make all ME3 endings valid... by not having any of them matter' resulted in a half-millenium+ gap, it's hard to see how this world would stay nearly identical other than people have cyberdecks now.
