Who is going to purchase a game (at full price, I'm assuming) on a Google service that has a 50% chance of being cancelled within 3 years of its launch?

The five green selection circles, well-ordered party, and top-down perspective suggest some classical RPG instead?

Only two did relight. You see it more clearly on slow-mo, but engine 42 (rofl) didn't light up for the landing and gimballed to the side to let the other two work.

Scott Manley (who made a quick appearance on LabPadre permanent cam at Boca Chica) dissected the entire flight, if you're interested: TL;DW: The rockets shutting one after the other are because the SN8 was reaching maximum intended speed (first), then maximum altitude (second). And Scott nailed...

and that's after some dumbass brough his cessna in the middle of the exclusion zone, causing everything to freeze. (source: LabPadre cam)

A Tessaract, since that's 4 dimensions!

Aaaaand one more "their/they": https://www.wowhead.com/news=319718/classic-quest-giver-heralath-fallowbrook-found-in-ardenweald *EDIT* Apparently a possible error due to a default voice being used. But the immediate neutering from Wowhead remains funny.

Define "indie studio". Because there is a difference between a 8-man, kickstartered band of nerds trying to make a game, and some of those small studios that have 40 people working with serious funding. Both are indie devs, but the qualitative difference will be day and night. Can the latter...

Also, as said before, they do have TBC code and data, unlike vanilla which had to be reconstructed. I am assuming they are going to need to adapt server code for the more modern framework they're using (including layering). But that's much, much easier than rebuilding old-school WoW 1.x from...

The mechanic rewarding for not killing stuff cracks me up...

Yes. It's too early to announce WoW 10.x, there's no SC4 or anything else visible on the horizon. Some D3 schedule news, but nothing else. Classic BC is the only strong possibility I see for an announce. There might be a surprise announce on something out of the left field, like "Warcraft 4!!!"...

Except that genetics don't match that. While the amerindian's closest genetic relatives today may look to be european ones - or more specifically, some finnic populations - those populations did not exist at the time speculated for that migration. The siberian ancestral population that admixed...

Genetically speaking, almost all Amerindians are closely related to archaic Siberian populations, meaning their ancestors definitively came from there... ... except for a very small handful of south central America that have some significant southern Asian affinity, indicating that there's a...

Game has the worst advert ever (at least in French). Basically, goes "Typhon has risen. If she fails, the world will fall..." And you're wait? I thought this was about someone named Fenyx or something? That's Typhon now??? (because as it's worded, it looks that it's if Typhon that fails...)

Because basically, each expansion is a new game, designed independently from each other. It's not World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, it's actually World of Warcraft 9: Into the Shadowlands. It probably begins with a general session "okay, what do we include in this sequel?" (even if the word sequel...

Need to figure out which BA flights feature this service...

I was watching for that one when he announced it in his previous video. That one delivers. But you should also absolutely see the previous one about various views (including "achievement unlocked", lol):

Apparently the tutorial about how you can "reuse troops" doesn't refer to the fact that they don't die... but that you can use copies of non-named troops. Unlike all the previous tables.

And almost all of them are not MMO, not because they have X or Y players, but because of what I explained before. Bartle may have wanted to use a different type of naming, but in the end, it all boils down to a qualitative difference, not a business/size one. In a MMO, I can end up in, say...

At the moment, it's a pure no-frills, test one thing at a time series of models. But let's be honest. The end result will BE a Buck Rogers rocket. One that works.

Yes. Which is why I sometimes drop on Patreon for a couple months, to provide the equivalent of a book's worth, then I unsub until I feel like I got a good book of content. That's why I was subscribed for september and october, and stopped after (so I no longer have any spoiler on you guys -...

The face Dawn makes when she realizes "this is the one my boss wants to use to save this world?" That would probably be enough to make you quit your Phoenix cult... I think the main problem is that Shirtaloon needs to keep the machine going, which means he either has big flashes of...

Even Rudy wants some.

It's still a bit saturating in term of camera on the droneship, but almost all the recent landings were seen live without a cut due to lost transmission when the ship moves too much and the satellite alignment is lost (or whatever).

Of course it is. The whole point is almost certain summed by those eternal three letters: A-R-T.

I'm going to try to give you a simple definition in qualitative terms rather than quantitative ones: - A multiplayer game is a game that multiple people are in the same game alongside YOU - A massively multiplayer game is a game where you find people not playing in YOUR game alongside you That...

Shit, too late.

Both delegations are, well, parodies of standard outsider cliches on those two nations. I'm not too surprised he choose to go over the top for those two. I was more surprised he didn't push too many cliches when he did the French-based Network branch depiction.

And this is important because...? Do you really think, one second, that people who are impacted by those decisions will suddenly, out of nothing, stop, smell the roses, "enjoy" reading lore, and stuff? The answer is "no". The people most impacted by those are not going to enjoy that, for one...

And this is important... because?

Oh, and the "You Will Play Exactly As We Say You Will, And Not One Currency More!" is getting ridiculous: https://www.wowhead.com/news=319346/venari-rep-and-stygia-may-be-locked-until-first-weekly-reset-in-shadowlands Yes, boys. This time, they are locking A REPUTATION behind reset mechanics.

And you're really thinking he's going to stay stuck in there? Notably when our avowed goal is defeat his upper-case-J ailer...?

Ah, ah, ah! New grindable in 3... 2... 1...

And apparently, to be sure no hardcore gamer can gain "undue benefits", it's capped to 3 levels the first week. Because YOU WILL PLAY ACCORDING TO OUR CURATED METRICS, OR ELSE.

Basically, GEForce uses a specialized client for whatever store, with pre-installed games for the virtualized machine. So you open the GeForce Now, click on the desktop for Steam/GOG/Epic/Origin/etc, and launch the game from your normal library there. All it requires is that the store is...

Halflings without hairy feet? HERESY!

The big problem is that, at the time, the exploits and bugs were not well known or popular and some of them took a long time before they became problems. Today, they're documented, and the population is ready to exploit them on day one.

For a slightly similar take on the theme, you should have a look at "Risen Empire", from Scott Westerfeld (either The Risen Empire + The Killing of Worlds or the confusingly titled The Risen Empire omnibus edition that combines both books). You have the Undead Emperor and his Risen elites...

Agreed. Since the sub is shared, they are using Classic and Modern as a way to reinforce each other, not as separate products aimed at different people (which it probably is).

Worse. If you watch the SpaceX streams whenever they do those missions, it's no longer the SpaceX stream. It's down to 720p because NASA cannot stream higher than 720p. It's whatever NASA has, even for the pure SpaceX parts (like the launch itself). I'm pretty sure this is a contractual...
