Probably because the head of arrowhead himself said it was somewhere around 50/50, even leaning closer to 60/40 in favor of PS5 the other day lol.OG post is gone (cant imagine why) but

No, it was because of platform warriors. He made a followup tweet explaining it.Probably because the head of arrowhead himself said it was somewhere around 50/50, even leaning closer to 60/40 in favor of PS5 the other day lol.
someone responded "well thats not true" to that tweet, but didnt eloborate furtherI'm sure certain devs get them for free from console companies and not every dev out there has gotten a free Deck or anything, that'd probably total all Decks.
Valve has such a good track record of "doing the right thing" for the past 25+ years (I know, I know, they're not perfect, but nobody is), I hope that Gabe has enough foresight to now make sure he will have successors that will carry on with the Valve philosophy. Especially since he's not getting any younger. But given that he isnt running Valve alone, there are clearly people in that company who share that same philosophy and can carry on with it once he's gone or retired.It will be a sad day when Gabe retires as Valve is such a unique company in the gaming space. I don't have much confidence that whoever succeeds him won't mess everything up or sell to the highest bidder.
I'd say the basic point of the original tweet is true.someone responded "well thats not true" to that tweet, but didnt eloborate further

That's like a quarter of the EGS third party spending in just 11 days (in just one payment method).In the holiday gift-giving period of December 20th to December 31st, 2023, players redeemed more than $80 million in physical wallet cards.
I guess, this is the closest to any number that we'll get, it's just a floor, tho.Specifically, 2023 was the first year in Steam’s history where more than 500 games earned more than $3 million in gross revenue—in that calendar year alone.
At this point I get the feeling MAUs are growing at a slower pace than EGS which may be a bad look. Valve says overall revenue is still growing so I'm sure there is platform growth, but it has probably slowed down alongside the rest of the industry. Also CCUs so far this year only show a bit of YOY growth compared to '23.No numbers, lame...
Milions?I'd say the basic point of the original tweet is true.
You might be able to get a free loan of a dev kit from a console manufacturer, but that comes with more requirements and constraints than getting a Steam Deck dev kit or two, and it's also a loan rather than just "here take it". And of course the Deck you got was a fully functional unit, because every Deck is a "devkit" and every "devkit" is just a Deck.
One point that isn't really true is the cost when it comes to Switch devkits. You can google it, and it's not "thousands".
I imagine they just need it out before the end of the march/march financial year for tax purposes. In a few months most of the devs will be unemployed.Been watching some Skull & Bones gameplay.
And yea its very bland and undercooked. Just looks boring tbh.
Don't know why anyone would play it when Sea of Thieves exists. And if you are a big Ubi fan just go back n play Black Flag and/or Rogue for the singleplayer pirate goodness instead of wtvr this is trying to be.
Also there is not much AAAA about the game. Gaming execs need to stfu about how big and full of content there games are so they can justify a stupid price.
The only games I played in the past 6 (or so) years that I would definitively consider AAAA are RDR2 and Cyberpunk.
BG3, Elden Ring, Death Stranding, Starfield and FF7R come pretty close as well but not quite there. At least not until more content comes out for some of them. Elden Ring will definitely be once the expansion comes out.
These are super dumb systems that just try find the best match given their training sets. There's nothing intelligent about neural network based ML systems. It's not even plagiarism, as that implies these things could be truly creative. Mashing up its datasets to produce similar outputs to inputs it's been trained is the entire point. Except that the systems also can't actually reason and process your exact questions. They don't understand language, or logic, or anything.Lol, Microsoft's AI thing sure is dumb. I've been trying to get it to understand that the dragon it should make for me shouldn't have 4 legs and it keeps saying OK I'll do it right this time then doing it like this again lmao. Anyway I don't care just thought I'd try this thing in browser since it didn't require phone numbers and shit like those other things. I just clicked this Ask Copilot icon thing in the Windows 11 Search shortcut thing to see what it even is. One time it got 1 of 4 right and I said great but 3 images are wrong do it like the top right one that is correct, and it gave me 4 images with 4 legs in all of them again lol.
I also asked it to write a children's tale about a big talking cat and a small mute mouse and it gave me a story about the cat Tom and mouse Jerry chasing each other as the cat wants to eat Jerry and Jerry wants to steal cheese and shit. No plagiarism here, just AI doing its thing.
I am watching a lets play and I may be biased or just plain crazy, BUTWell, that’s Persona 3 Reload finished.
Big sigh. I hate it when a game I love comes to an end.
You are a good man with good tastesJust finished FF9 for the first time ever and it's impressive how it manages to dive off a cliff in such a spectacular manner after the coronation after being very enjoyable in the first half. Still better than FF7 though.
6 > 8 >>>> 9 >> 7 > 4
The only min-maxing I did in P3R was getting my academics stat higher so I could unlock the Mitsuru S Link.Also, I do get the complaint that there is less to do than P4 or P5, but I have said it here very often: The best experience I had with a Persona game was, when I was just "living" day to day, immersed in the setting, without scrambling to look up a perfect guide to even have the chance to see everything in the game. You can 100% the social links in P3 while being inefficient or just do what you want. No min-maxing the exact date when it is best to do a dungeon, not sitting hours in a dungeon because you NEED to finish it that day or your whole run is over.
yes
Is it finally time?
G502XDoes anyone know of a good rechargeable wireless mouse?
Apple Magic Mouse XDDoes anyone know of a good rechargeable wireless mouse?
That was a boring read, I was hoping for something juicier. Oh well.No numbers, lame...
So I'm going deep into the warhammer 40k anime hole and was wondering what's the best game to start off with - never really played any of them.
Super excited to play Balatro. The demo was top notch and it has a great score on OpenCritic.
Both games in todays spotlight should be out in an hour
That Warhammer 40k Chaos Gate Daemonhunters XCOM alike was pretty good.So I'm going deep into the warhammer 40k anime hole and was wondering what's the best game to start off with - never really played any of them.
Have they even finished TemTem yet?TemTem Survivors?!
The game is story complete, but despite being a "MMO", the dev team doesn't seem to want to do major content expansions (like new areas or new temtems).Have they even finished TemTem yet?

I can't believe no one's made a game like this before (??). I feel like everyone's had the "what if I was in medieval times with modern weapons" fantasy at some point in their lives.
I can't wait until the next Palworld 2 gets announced here and then people will just say "wow this game came out of nowhere".INDIE Live Expo Returns on May 25th, Celebrates 10 Million Views in Winter 2023 Event | INDIE Live Expo | Broadcasting All the Latest Info on Indie Games

Anyway I wishlisted it. Probably won't be the deepest game around but it should be dumb fun.
