You'd like these business types are supposed to be so smart that they would understand the fact that infinite growth is not possible, nor is the growth they want sustianable. It's like they don't understand how shit works.

It’s just what happens when you have shareholders to please. Not many companies know how to straddle the line between decency and profit seeking.

13th-gen Intel can work with DDR4 or 5. AMD5 is DDR5 exclusive.

Ah, that's where my confusion has come from.

Even ballsier to put those copies into a game that barely works and crashes all the time.

Did Creative Assembly actually remember that Chaos Dwarfs exist?

Praise be to Hashut!

Goddamn it, Neil. And I just said some nice thigns about you over on TLOU show thread!

They were heavily rumoured to be part of 3 since before it came out, also they're running out of race to introduce into the game.

wtf, why is it so much more expensive than previous race DLC?

At least he has the intergrity to stick by his crap come hell or high water.

This was going to happen at some point. He's an egotistical douche constantly getting high off of his own farts. Who gives a fuck what he thinks? This is why I am glad I didn't tune into the adaption. I'll continue over here either watching better game-to-movie/TV adaptions, or playing games that aren't misery and torture porn 24/7.

A little extra news for you @FakeSympathy.

The fact that he had make a big and loud announcement about it, shows he cares somewhat. If he really didn't care, Druckmann would have kept his mouth shut. As far as integrity goes, not much of a milestone. You want true integrity from a AAA game maker? Look no further than Shinji Mikami.

Yeah, it seems they weren't aware they were crossing any line since they bought the assets fair and square, it's just that the Epic Store is such a lawless jungle... Amazing how can this happen in a thriving industry as the gaming one - and to involve the most popular title of the past 16 months...

Serious question, and from someone who wishes the Last of Us didn't exist at all sometimes, was this an actual surprise? Like did anyone expect otherwise?

Because money attracts scumbags.

Is it me or does Law look and sound younger than he should be? For a moment, I actually thought this was Forest.

It's probably because of the revamped art style and character design. I already knew it was Marshall from the beginning when Namco released screenshots of him and Paul after the first trailer with Jin and Kazuya. He doesn't have the moustache and goatee any more, so makes him look slightly younger. Fine by me. You can still tell he's aged.
