That wasn’t exactly on Todd Howard, though? There was going to be a new update for Fallout 4, and everyone, especially every modder, knew that for at least a year beforehand.
There are 5 other even larger projects in development other than Fallout London, Fallout London was the only one to come out and blame Bethesda for a foreseeable delay.
Why would it not follow that Steam using the same percentage - with lower costs and none of the physical-based risk - is simply greed?
Most of the retailers mentioned in that article were also digital only and had the exact same or less risk. Steam certainly does a lot to try and get people’s money, but they aren’t just greedily fucking over Devs for that 30%, that is in fact industry standard.
I also have no doubt that Epic will enshitify itself and raise its rate closer to 30% after growing.
But you see that small socialist elite proclaims it’s doing it for the working class, therefore it’s okay now.
Don’t look at those prisons full of attempted trade unionists pls.
It’s called second campism, and it’s been happening for a long time, it just used to make more sense when it could actually seem like there was two hegemonic camps during the cold war (still an oversimplistic view).
Now they just support any regime that’s anti-US/the original capitalist camp because they have no hegemonic camp of their own to support, just a broad smattering of authoritarian regimes with completely different ideologies.
Oh there’s many many many more than just Skywind.
There’s Skywind and Skyblivion.
And then the Fallout 4 Capital Wasteland team that’s been remaking the DLCs and main game of Fallout 3.
Then there’s the Fallout 4 New Vegas team, which has been doing the same but for New Vegas.
Then there’s the Fallout 2 remaster team mentioned in this article (Project Arroyo).
And then there’s the Fallout 1 remaster team (Project Vault 13).
There’s also mods being developed that are entirely new areas, such as Fallout London, Fallout Miami, and Fallout Cascadia. Along with the Elder Scrolls equivalents of Beyond Skyrim’s teams, Nirn Uncharted, and Apotheosis, which aims to have all the daedric realms.
Despite any blunders Bethesda might have made, their modding community is thriving now better than ever.
Edit: Also all of these projects have Discord servers where they post regular progress updates.
Yup, I mean I’m pretty left, but the endless politics is probs bad for the platform in the long run. We need more “normie” and hobby communities if we’re gonna keep attracting new people.
Enough to know it’s bullshit.
Sure you can grab the one example in my argument that was actually functional and not fully symbolic, but my point still stands, humans build seemingly irrational things to grandstand, and the Pharoahs would’ve for sure done the same in their role as dictators.
I have my fucking doubts.
And I’m sure so has every serious academic who has studied the pyramids and all came to the conclusion that it was a tomb, and if you read their reasonings for that I’m sure you’d understand why they came to that conclusion.
Honestly, why would they make three precise giant buildings for a tomb?
Same reason we would spend a stupid amount of money on the St. Louis Arch, Statue of Liberty, or Palace of Versaille, or any work of art? To create a lasting symbol of something and to symbolize status.
I’m sure you found that book very compelling, but any electrical engineer or historian with an understanding of that period’s technology could rip it apart.
Wtf? Pls say this is satire.
Oh, alright, my bad, the State of the Union was definitely some of the best messaging I’ve seen of a united democratic party I’ve seen in a while.
Your point being? Strong presidential talk at the State of the Union does not give them the power to pass laws without congress.
“Israel was regularly bombing buildings without solid intelligence that they were legitimate military targets,”
Bad, however using the term “indiscriminate bombing” to describe this is hyperbolic. “Without solid intelligence” could mean they’ve been told by 10 people that Hamas is inside a certain building, but they haven’t actually confirmed the info before bombing something every nation does, unfortunately. “Indiscriminate Bombing” implies WW2 level mass carpet bombing of residential centers, which atm is simply not happening in Gaza.
The same exact thing that I’ve argued since the beginning of this exchange, that the Intelligence Community did basically all within their (Legal) power to stop Trump and then do as much harm reduction as possible during his actual presidency. Thereby making them the most impactful in the internal resistance against Trump.
But yeah blame it on Lemmy toxicity and not just you saying dumb shit like “the intelligence community doesn’t care about Trump & Russia”.
I never said they couldn’t do anything, I’m saying they did about what they’re legally allowed to do minus some restraint for not wanting to even be perceived as interfering with an election.
They blew the whistle so many times it seems yall became deaf to it.
Lmfao, assassinations that are questionably even linked to the Intelligence Community from over half a century ago are not evidence for what they could’ve done to stop Trump today.
What do you honestly think they could’ve done to stop it?
The intelligence agencies were literally the ones in government who cared the most about Russia wtf are you talking about? Almost every piece of media coverage you saw of Trump and Russia was originally from intelligence reports.
This is just willful ignorance at this point, the administration has been saying consistently since at least a month after October 7th, that a two state solution was the only answer to permanently solve the crisis.
Fo3 had a small update recently to get rid of Games For Windows Live and to fix Windows 10/11 compatibility.
The FNV update was probably something similar.
