I’ve been liking Magneto as well, but I hate his sound design. There’s nothing about it that tells you his powers have anything to do with magnetism or controlling metal. He sounds like he has generic fantasy psychic powers

I think maybe you have too strong of a focus on plot. It’s there to give structure to the breakdown of a family that is passing down mental, emotional, and supernatural problems like they’re hereditary. It’s a showcase of how a family raised to be tools can devolve when they’re finally being used.

!Personally my favourite part is the massive tone shift at the very end when Peter is finally possessed and receives his revelation. It’s a beautifully crafted scene that balances being celebratory and morbid. A fantastically unique payoff to an entire movie’s worth of buildup.!<

Default is probably select all because most people interact with the address to either copy the address or clear it to enter a new address. I empathize though

Hopefully it’ll come out on steam next year or something as a single complete edition, just like Control.

easy cash grab

You said it

I think they did them just right. I wouldn’t go farther, but I’m very happy with how it was done. That being said, I don’t expect them to do it like that again because it would just be too predictable

Personal preservation is perfectly valid and doesn’t automatically mean sharing aka piracy. If killing emulation prevents a legit owner from playing their game you’re diminishing the authority of that ownership. Now I’m not arguing all claims of personal preservation are always ok since some games give you a limited license to play and are not owned, but that just means it’s important to see the nuance

There’s no simple answer to that since games become inaccessible in different ways and with different severities. It’ll always be an argument you have to make.

It’s not about the number of years, it’s about how accessible the original title is. The less accessible, the better you can justify the existence of emulating that title

It was a good decision. It was also smart of them to review the initial 100 planet goal to add some much needed context

I understand, what confused me was your claim about the common understanding of the term when there are very much two valid and ubiquitous contexts.

I can understand you have different criteria for dedicated servers, but private servers are certainly not generally characterized by still being on 1st party hardware. You need only look at private servers for Minecraft, WoW, and the like

It’s a double edged sword. Everybody’s got a different line for when something descriptive inadvertently becomes prescriptive

The game being worked on now isn’t really the same game that was originally backed. They essentially had to restart development a few years after the campaign because the scope had expanded. The tech at the time didn’t cut it so they’ve spent most of the time since then creating new tech that would

After the presentation they recorded a new no-crash version and uploaded that to YouTube as well. They wanted to risk the crashes during the presentation to show it was a live, playable demo

I would say private server is more what you’re referring to, also CIG’s wording, but maybe agree to disagree. A quick search says that they haven’t cancelled that feature, but it’ll appropriately be the very last thing they work on

How are they gone? The current servers are hosted by CIG, there’s no p2p or player hosted servers. How would that even work for an MMO?

Meshing tests have gone up to 2000 and the shards that were left on overnight were 300-500. The current evocati build of 4.0 has meshing enabled, just limited to 100 for now

Personally, I don’t think they should be aiming for 100 anymore, even if it was promised. That number was for the original pitch and was arbitrarily high since it was for a much shallower and easier to create game
