He lost all my support when he translated Larian CEO's "we're obligated by competition to try AI, but we're never including it any of the work we do" into "we're pushing hard on using AI"

Because he knew the later would get clicks.

The large amount of anonymity might make that difficult, it also makes it impossible to vett anyone you've previously had bad encounters with from joining your games. This could make harassment a real problem. I guess steam accounts or similar when joining the game session does something to help mitigate that, but time will tell on whether the good or bad or humanity wins out here.

That's fair, but I think looking for a one-size fits-all-purposes is guaranteed to fail. Your replacement can be different to mine and that doesn't make either a bad thing, just represents the various different needs that discord filled.

An easy ui fix, but misses that they separate the concept of spaces and channels entirely. You can essentially join a server's text channel without being a member of their server depending on permissions. The UI has ended up created from a user POV rather than being server-based because of this perspective. That being the case I doubt it will change.

Stopping them moving would still be better though

It is but even more level-headed concensus is that it's just not that good or at least not polished and ready enough for release. It's not fun and needed better collaboration with it's audience to find the fun.

It's funny because the argument being made is that what's being enforced isn't in their agreement. So removing clauses wouldn't change anything

Are you complaining that won't choose to lose money?

Outside of performance, most responses are "it's alright" it's not blowing anyone's mind

It'd be interesting to see your take on FFXIV given that it's essentially 2 games. One where you have a solo main story and one where you have a bunch of activities you do with friends. One does spawn from the other, but it's so drastically different from your regular MMO that I'm not sure it deserves the title in spite of the fact that it has a shared world.

By going the route exclusives they deliberately avoided being competition and cemented themselves as the early access platform with no features.

Hades was as good as it was because it had a year to be mediocre on EGS first

Sub is tied to an account that needs to own the games. There might be a way around to trick it, but I'd be surprised if you didn't need to buy the games twice with that method. You can extend the amount by 15 hours for $3 or $6 based on performance requirements.

Geforce now is for a limited demographic already.

The only people this would affect is those that have the time to hit the 100 cap, and the money to pay for the sub, but either can't pay for the rig or are using it for remote play. In either case 100 hours a month is plenty, you can buy more and honestly the rate they're offering is fine considering the maintenance costs likely involved.

I know this is going to be unpopular, but I know people that use it and I genuinely don't know of anyone actually negatively affected by this. Neither of them have ever managed to hit the 100 hour threshold with gaming as a primary hobby.
