- Comment on Hideo Kojima doesn't know if Physint will be released on PS5, and he hasn't decided if it's going to use Sony's Decima game engine 1 week ago:
Using the engine will give Sony money. That’s like paying your old boss after they fired you.
I would think that this would help morale at the studio.
- Comment on "I thought people would leave": Hideo Kojima offers his account of Physint's switch from PlayStation to Xbox, as his studio insist they're in a "healthy, profitable state" 1 week ago:
MBA don’t care about profits. They care about more profits than last year every year.
- Comment on [Opinion] If Hideo Kojima Games Aren't Safe, No Games Are Safe - Aftermath (Luke Plunkett) 2 weeks ago:
It’s crazy that he likes expensive actors in his games because all they do is spout endless mumbo jumbo that barely has anything to do with anything. I’m sure he would save a lot of money using less expensive actors to say exhausting amounts of nonsense.
Gameplay in his games is usually good and unique which means I’m a huge fan.
- Comment on Rockstar had a mole in the union worker Discord server "for over two and a half years", GTA 6 company reveals during legal battle 2 weeks ago:
Who was the mole?
His/her name should be well known in the industry so that no workers would ever trust that person in their friend group.
- Comment on Angry PlayStation Fans Propose PS5 Blackout in Protest of Sony's Disc Decision 2 months ago:
Cancelled PSN. I will only buy preowned disk games for the console.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
You’re referring to robots that do not exist and therefore have not been designed or have been found to have a use for. Kind of hard to have a business that is supposed to sell a product it does not design, own or exist.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
Robots already exist. They’re used in manufacturing worldwide. Tesla doesn’t sell any to anyone. They are not even competing.
- Comment on Chinese memory ban would cut off RAMpocalypse relief 2 months ago:
Just another way the Trump administration will be making America much less competitive worldwide.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
Sony wants to use old single player games as rentals tied to the PS online account. Can’t force people to pay for PS Plus if their game collection is on disk.
- Comment on Rumor: XBOX Is Making Their Own Destiny Like MMO, But With Halo 2 months ago:
It is hard when the talent is long gone.
The only ones left are yes-men and people that lost interest long ago.
- Comment on Former Dragon Age lead says product placements could help combat "overreliance on microtransactions" and I agree because every game should make you pick a watch colour 3 months ago:
Former Dragon Age developer seems to be a common job title. Maybe there’s a reason for that.
- Comment on Sony to no longer bring PlayStation narrative single-player games to PC 4 months ago:
They were just getting people primed for future live service games. Did Sony port game franchises that didn’t have some lsg in production?
- Comment on Sony to no longer bring PlayStation narrative single-player games to PC 4 months ago:
They all make money on console sales. Not a lot of money.
Higher games sales is not a win if it encourages consumers to use a non-Sony device. Sony is thinking long term viability of their platform instead of trying to make half a dozen live service games that nobody wants.
- Comment on Sony to no longer bring PlayStation narrative single-player games to PC 4 months ago:
Seems like Sony is no longer prioritizing the multi platform live service market expansion that only encourages people to buy less PlayStation consoles.
- Comment on Game Consoles Are Pricing Themselves Out of Relevance 4 months ago:
I 100% agree.
Visuals since the PS4 generation have only improved marginally unless we spend $1000-3000 on hardware.
Game developers should limit themselves to PS4 level visuals to keep costs down and to have their games run well on hardware most people can afford.
- Comment on Game Consoles Are Pricing Themselves Out of Relevance 4 months ago:
Try building a gaming PC.
The AI apocalypse coupled with the Republican tariffs and Republican Iran war are driving inflation to insane levels.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 months ago:
Trump and his family have made more money this year than they have in their entire lives. He fucked around and is cashing in because capitalists love authoritarians and fascists.
- Comment on CNN: Republicans release AI deepfake of James Talarico as phony videos proliferate in midterm races 6 months ago:
Because the government is full of corrupt people that want money.

Not for long.
- Comment on Video game romances need to evolve beyond lore dumps 7 months ago:
Seems like this person wants to play a dating simulator that simulates a real relationship.
Be the change you want in the world.
- Comment on Memory chip crunch to hit TVs and consumer devices hardest in 2026 7 months ago:
I need a 4K 65” CRT.
A forklift to help me install it

- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 studio boss calls out "hurtful", "personal" videogame reviewers - "sometimes I think it'd be a good idea for critics to be scored, Metacritic-style" 8 months ago:
I’ve been playing Zelda TotK lately and the third person camera in that game is amazing. I wish BG3 had that kind of camera when playing with a controller.
I don’t know of a good intuitive free cam for m+k play. They all seem a bit over complicated to me.
- Comment on Leaked Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Test Presentation Impreses After Cancellation 8 months ago:
Nothing bad with a remake of a classic.
Just think of it as a well-liked movie that was only available on DVD but it is getting a pristine Blu-ray release.
Nothing wrong with that.
Ubisoft’s other work is where the real problem is.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 studio boss calls out "hurtful", "personal" videogame reviewers - "sometimes I think it'd be a good idea for critics to be scored, Metacritic-style" 8 months ago:
I thinks it’s pretty good for most of the game. It only gets borderline broken when verticality comes into play during some battles.
- Comment on Trump’s Department of Transportation Plans to Use AI to Draft New Regulations 8 months ago:
The AI tool they use will just spit out whatever regulations the owners of that same tool want changed. Just before it calls itself mecha-hitler or some other edge lord crap.
- Comment on Days after cancelling their Linux-compatible mod loader, Nexus Mods announces that they're bringing SteamOS support to Vortex 8 months ago:
Imagine an easy to use open source mod application with versions on every major OS. No ads. No slow download options. Just functionality.
If only I had some talent.
- Comment on Arc Raider devs want future Expeditions to be less about fat stacks and FOMO 8 months ago:
They just have to look at Bungie and never do what they did.
- Comment on NVIDIA CEO says relentless negativity around AI is hurting society and has "done a lot of damage" 8 months ago:
Financial ruin is a not possible for him. Nvidia could seize to exist today and he will still have more money than millions of hard working people put together.
He’s a capitalist and they want to amass as much wealth as possible because their brain is broken. They are willing to destroy all of society as long as they continue to amass wealth.
