Maybe they’ll finally sell off GlobalFoundries,

JeeBaiChow, do games w Saudi Arabia's investment fund reported to be limiting new investments as cash runs low

Our former prime minister claimed they also invested heavily in a past election which was gerrymandered up to the neck, that they then proceeded to lose. So sad.

jali67, do games w EA insists it will "maintain creative control" and "creative freedom" if sale to consortium goes ahead

I’ll believe it when I see it. Knowing the current admin, they just need to give Trump some bitcoin and he’ll allow this to go through.

thinkercharmercoderfarmer,

The buyers are way beyond that point

Electronic Arts confirmed it was entering an agreement to be acquired by a group of investors comprised Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF), Silver Lake, and Affinity Partners at the end of September. The PIF is run by Saudi Arabia’s Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, and the investment firm Affinity Partners was formed by Donald Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner.

jali67,

Of course Silver Lake is in on it 🤦‍♂️

Oh, the content curation is going to go through tonial whiplash and I’m looking forward to it.

Considering their current level of creative control and freedom, that’s like Kim promising nothing will change for the worse in NK.

And the songs will start to become unavailable to purchase over the next 9 years. I guess it’s a good reminder for me to buy all the songs I want to get.

The myth of infinite growth has cause infinitely more harm than good.

EarlGrey, do games w At Gamescom, it felt like the industry now has a plan: make games quicker | Opinion

There are exactly two major developers that get an eye raise from me these days. Nintendo and From Software. And even From Software I’m cool on right now because I’m just real burned out on excessively depressing grimdark fantasy.

And Indie Devs aren’t even filling in the gap for me anymore. Granted, I see a lot of interesting concepts put out with them, but they way too often come with disappointing execution. The last two indie games to really floor me were Neon White and GhostRunner.

Games are just in a really weak place right now. I honestly find I’m spending more and more time on the NSO virtual console games.

I’m drowning in a deluge of great games to play, personally. The exception there being first-person shooters and racing games, and racing games are starting to fill in the gaps.

bitcrafter,

Make sure you check out Metal: Hellsinger if you haven’t already!

I have! I enjoyed it quite a bit. I’m not really so much looking for “boomer shooters”, but the style of shooters that postdated those from the late 90s through the 2010s, especially when they include a campaign and multiplayer in the same package, which is harder and harder to come by these days…and often times, they create a dependency on external servers when they do. I didn’t even have any appetite for Doom Eternal or The Dark Ages. But this was the extra layer on top of Doom 2016 that I wanted in order to keep it interesting.

Interesting. I am a huge fan of space scifi, and it came out of EA the day before my birthday 🤔

More Homeworld games (gearbox etc. I know. But it is us homeworld!). Love it!

Tar_alcaran,

Era One (very recently into early acces) feels a LOT like homeworld 2 used to. But the “build your big ships from blocks” is definitely something you need to get used to, and need to like.

And it’s from the Homeworld Complex people, who do not exactly have the best trackrecord in developing.

What happened to Everywhere?

I thought MindsEye was supposed to be a ‘demo’/example game within the building tools of Everywhere?

Starayo, do games w New report suggests third-party Switch 2 game sales are "below estimates"

I mean, main reason I got mine was to play the games I couldn’t stomach at switch 1 performance. Until duskbloods comes out, anyway.

Also, since I had a first gen switch 1, I was finally able to hack it without worrying about losing online functionality, so now it’s a nice emulation handheld.
