It’s a video game show that uses the rules of the video game world.

And? Why take active steps to stop it from working instead of just stopping technical support? Oh yeah, to get more money.

Your entire comment reads as a refute of OPs criticism and an excuse for Meta’s actions. If you were agreeing with OPs criticism, you would typically use phrases like “only five years”.

Appreciate you giving credit where credit is due. It is 100% corporate greed.

In the same time period, we’ve gotten Skull And Bones, Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League, and Diablo IV skins that cost more than the base game.

It can simultaneously be true that the big companies are churning out cash grabs while other companies are making awesome games.

Because Sweet Baby Inc is known for forcing a narrative and tokens into the writing, for the sake of diversity on the cost of quality of the story and the characters.

Where is the proof of this beyond speculation? I can’t think of a mechanism through which a consultant can force anything. Their contracts would undoubtedly have an NDA that would prevent them from sharing which of their recommendations the client acted on or not.

Also, does the point of creating a game have to be making the “most” money? Isn’t it enough to make something awesome and a profit?

You made choices and got the results of those choices. The alternative results are different.

!There are multiple endings where Karlach survives in different ways. Shadowheart’s story has at least three possible outcomes, maybe more that I haven’t seen. This goes on and on for each origin character. Even NPCs you encounter in Act 3 are shaped by your choices earlier in the game.!<

Frankly, based on your description, it sounds like you made a bunch of lame decisions. There’s neat endings and then the middling one you got.

I saved your post to try out the game. Sadly, it appears that it’s being erased from the Internet.

That’s pretty nuts. I bet a lot of planning went into optimizing the time spent each week to make the most progress.

And? It would take a trivial amount of effort to spin up VMs and install the game on each. If I immediately tear the VM down after, I’m sure my cost would be covered by free AWS credits.

What? I’ve never played a game that limited the number of times I could install it.
