I understand the difficulties, but if they did something to make sure it was backwards compatible, I would consider getting it. If they could get Alyx, I would be buying one now.
No Man’s Sky is pretty much the only reason why I want to try it. I’m pretty happy with my PSVR1 otherwise.
I thought I had heard that he was problematic when he was drinking. I figured I would at least mention it.
I’m glad he got better though. Once Gus stepped away from the RT Podcast I went and listened to all of ANMA. And now that’s one of only 3 or 4 podcasts I will listen to every episode of.
They had alleged abuse. I think part of it was the start up mentality of working long hours and expecting others to do the same even after they had become a stable company.
Some alleged slurs also from people who were a lot more comfortable than they probably should have been with coworkers. At least one of the people alleging slurs also definitely used slurs. May or may not be connected to how comfortable they were saying the types of things they did.
Honestly, that’s kind of scratching the surface. There were a couple predators that were ousted when they were caught. One dude was ousted when he went off the deep end with conspiracy theories and was too crazy to work with. One guy was an alcoholic but got better.
They seemed to gradually get better. But they really seemed to have a new controversy every couple of years.
Content creators from the early days when that was a novelty.
Some stuff is legit animation like RWBY, they made the biggest mechinima ever in Red vs Blue, a show made by voicing over video game characters controlled by a player, they made videos showing how to get Xbox achievements called Achievement Hunter, Let’s Play with people just doing fun stuff in video games, and then later podcasts with random stuff like people chatting about current topics RT Podcast, plane crashes in Black Box Down, and Austin in ANMA.
A bunch of other stuff too. But that’s a good summary I think.
They shifted over the years. From RvB, to Achievement Hunter, Rage Quit, and Let’s Play, to RWBY, to podcasts. It seems like the current move is just cutting out the non-pod stuff since that’s what is successful right now.
They let Bungie go as well. Maybe it was just a downsizing decision. Their roles were redundant or they didn’t want to invest in whatever they were proposing. Idk.
It’s the only game I’ve got my wife to play that she enjoyed. It’s cute with simple controls. But there’s enough there to keep her entertained for awhile.
That sounds a lot like the jump from HD to 4K. Which is to say a lot less impactful than the previous jumps and tech. And something a lot of people might not even notice.
Are there other benefits to this? Like less work for developers?
Those are the standards and those products have value. Buying an Xbox when Playstation has all games for both consoles makes no sense unless you just have to have Gamepass, specifically.
