It should be. She's a fucking genius and those games are amazing, gameplay wise and narratively.

I wish someone would give her a bunch of money to do a remake of the whole series.

I feel like this is one of those multiverse branch moments where Skynet is created.

I block all advertising myself, but sponsors I think are ok. The creator can control who they sponsor with, they can write a funny ad skit that is entertaining (the best ones I have seen are the ones by squishy boi) and the creator gets paid directly without fucking us with an algorithm.

I'm happy to watch those kinds of ads as I know the creator is getting paid from them, and e.g. YouTube isn't taking a cut.

Please be shadowrun. Please be shadowrun.

Do you know how much I would fucking love larian to do a shadowrun game next? By the gods that would blow my fucking mind

The stuff you can do in UE5 just makes it a no brainer for everyone. Especially if you want an object and detail dense environment where lighting is super important. UE5 and cyberpunk is a match made in heaven.

I do home Godot can get similar features to UE5 one date. I'm rooting for those guys.

Same. Literally me.

...He's seen it all.

We need more than this.

We need a way to make sure that the internet can't be owned, physically.

We need some kind of easy to use and fast and robust open source alternate internet that we can all use.

Something that somehow costs nothing to run, that has enough storage and bandwidth for everyone and everything.

Something that has interoperability built in. Every platform should confirm to openid or openauth or activitypub or something like that.

And you know what? we have the technology!

We all have spare devices lying around. Old PC's, old laptops, old phones - they could all be running some kind of node in a distributed platform of some kind of open source AWS equivalent, and let anyone host anything and post anything without getting ad-raped or data stolen.

It's a pipe dream of mine, and I'm sure others... but with a will and a movement we could just take it all back, all at once.

Wow. Not only incorrect, but incorrect in the worst way by fucking up maths by a factor of a thousand!

Auto scaling NPCs to your level is such a shitty and lazy solution to difficulty scaling. I'm so sick of it.

Why can't they do an escalation system like the cops instead for each gang? The longer you aggravate them on their turf the heavier the guys are they send out. Much more realistic, and if you are getting your ass kicked you just scoot over to some other gangs turf.

Yup. I'm in enterprise Dev because gamedev pays peanuts. I earn 4x what I would in game dev. It's terrible.
