- Comment on Palworld devs heard “nothing at all” from Pokémon creators despite everyone calling it 'Pokémon with guns' 1 week ago:
People are still calling it a Pokemon clone even though only like 10% of the gameplay involves catching Pals. It’s closer to being a survival game with a dash of “Pokemon at home” than anything else.
- Comment on Baldur’s Gate 3 mod update will be Larian’s ‘final handover’ to players 2 weeks ago:
“Screwed them over” may have been a bit strong, but as you mentioned WotC laid off a bunch of devs. The important part is that they were devs who worked directly with Larian on BG3. This is more likely than not also the reason Larian halted work on BG3 DLC. The public statement was that they lost their motivation, but it’s no coincidence that the DLC was cancelled very close to the payoff announcement. There are also the backhanded remarks that Swen has made about WotC watching him. It really sounds like Wizards is trying to control the narrative and make it look like the parting was amicable.

It’s just unfortunate that Larian will most likely not be doing BG4 if there is one. Corporate greed ruined it for everyone again.
- Comment on According to Dexerto Ayaneo next handheld is going to use SteamOS 5 months ago:
To be fair to Microsoft (I can’t believe I actually typed that) it’s not something they can just fix without splitting Windows into a consumer and business SKU that is significantly different from current Windows. Currently the only real difference is the amount of control the end user has over the platform, but the features are pretty much the same. To make a fully “modern” version you would basically have to build Windows from the ground up to eliminate all the cruft. There is no money for Microsoft in that. Better to focus on business and let the consumer complain.

I never appreciated Bowie when I was younger, but as I grew older he became one of my favorite artists. Unfortunately, by that time he had largely stepped back from performing, and later it would come out that the reason was that he had cancer. Blackstar is an amazing album but I can’t listen to it often because of how emotional I get.

I want to start out by saying I agree with everything you said, but I want to clarify by pointing out that Valve did trying to have a free floating battery but didn’t like how the console felt during testing. While they could have made a compartment I imagine the added weight and bulk (due to the battery shape) would not have been worth it.

I imagine part of that is low production as well since they don’t strike me as a huge company by computer manufacturing standards.
