There are no AAA companies. AAA is a term adapted for games that originally meant the game was exceptionally good at Story, Gameplay and Graphics, thus recieving an A rating in all 3 categories. Since such games were always big budget games, it became a term associated with large budget games...

No we dont. we accepted, even glorified gambling sold to children for decades. The most popular card game in the world are little more than gambling with a game attached to it. Right now everyone is pissing around because they want that one example of gambling to be banned but the much worse...

There was a myth that women are exceptionally bad in terms of spacial awareness and driving was the task that requires a lot of it. The reality is that while yes, there is a difference, it is negligible. Women tend to be more "careful drivers" and less road rage which is what the insurers reflected.

If the game is run from disc its going to use the same asset files regardless of what architecture is being run on and the only thing different is the engine itself which the blu-ray discs have more than enough space to fit two of. This means you can make the same disc universally work on both...

Well obviously noone can force you to read outside material for the show. Especially since you dont like it to begin with. Im just saying that by setting out history in orderly fashion instead of bits and pieces as pertinent to characters at hand it is much more consistent and if you are having...

No, i think all moderation action should be visible to the one being moderated, preferably public. Since the topic is about reddit, heres a story of how i got shadowbanned on reddit. When i originally registered i was browsing just a couple subreddits making comments and shit, then one day i...

Firs thing i do testing audio is get one of the Imagine Dragons songs that have those massive 4 meter diameter drums. Bad speakers cant handle that and the bass starts spazing around very audibly. When you have a massive low frequency drum with fakely boosted bass you're going to have a bad day...

I use these for both PC and mobile with their respective mobile versions. Audio - Foobar2000 with imported Winamp visualizations via addon. The most robust, lightweight and fail-proof audio player i have ever had the pleasure to use. Love the customizability as well. Video - VLC or MPC...

Intelligence is objective. Our ability to measure it completely may be lacking, but i see a lot of people with lack of intelligence calling intelligence measuring as useless. Well i can understand, noone wants to be called inferior, even if they are. Both are true. Intelligence can be...

The most annoying ones are mosquitos, they come in swarms and bite everything they can while carrying disease. The next in line would be Ticks. They are very active here recently and while rarely but carry diseases that are deadly. Basically if you have a dog this is not a good year for you...

My native language is lithuania, i also obviuosly speak english, and i know a bit of german and russian, but i wouldnt call it being able to speak that language. Therefore, voted in being bilingual. When communicating in english i always think in english. In fact it is sometimes hard to...

I believe it is time for the runaway child to come home. Time to reclaim the colonies.

WEll i think enough people told you you can just stop watching it, so ill adress the points instead. 1. The acting. I disagree, i think the acting is pretty well done. It is dramatic, yes, but it is supposed to be. You have to be able to look at facial expressions and it certianly helps...

Pretty much anyone i know that rewatched a movie multiple time in theaters did it to support the moviemakers (as theater sales get biggest cut on revenue) rather than anything else. Now rewatching on home video is entirely different thing. This is usually done for enjoyment, with large amounts...

2 years isnt long enough. Most games take longet to develop. Games releasing today had their main characters designed longer than 2 years ago. That being said, i didnt notice any significant difference. We always had female protagonists, but not at 50/50 representation. Given that the playerbase...
