I don't understand why people think BioWare *was* the doctors. There are 800 people at that company. It's just a company. Yes, the founders left. But it's not like the company went bankrupt or anything. You'd think by how some people talked that Ray and Greg were holding up a doorway in a burning orphanage yelling for people to go on without them. Really, they been doing stuff like this since BG....but to be fair the dialog wasn't as cringy.

I was kind of surprised to find that she is actually an aero space engineer.

The worst part is that during the time it was effective it led to no significant change in profit on the games that used it. It'd say that's the best part - perhaps it'll show investors that it's a waste of money to insist on using DRMs and hopefully GOG and CDProject can show that pouring the money into quality will increase sales instead. I'd said somewhere before that piracy has been exaggerated to scapegoat publishers and developers. In a culture of yes men you don't want to be the guy that tells the publisher that their product failed because they messed up or if the developer messes up and doesn't want to take responsibility. Piracy is an unknown, vague and obscure thing that they can point to and treat like a bogeyman. But yes, let's be optimists and think that it will change for the better. When has that not worked?

The blade doesn't slide down, is an energy blade and it doesn't have a surface to slide from. The field doesn't react until it hits something and then its closer to being something with mass.

I would say that a lightsaber not having a crossguard is very practical, yours is a false equivalence argument because swords are not lightsabers. Firstly; lightsabers have no weight and cut on momentum alone. Secondly; lightsabers are not just for humans, we all need to accept that the galaxy is a diverse place and that everyone needs to be equally represented even if it leads to fewer fingers. There are such materials that resist lightsabers but they are rare, I would say that an armored glove with a force field that acts as a guard without restricting movement would be better.

This can be arranged. Though I'm not sure why we need him to do what we're already doing. I mean.... Nothing to see here. Nothing at all. terminator themed game confirmed, right? RIIIIIIGHT???!!! Chris Avellone is at least a T1000, so it would make sense to do one of those one of these days. Why do you need to make another T1000?

Putin is ugly and short, but he had a wife and still has a platoon of hot chicks at his disposal. A platoon of terrified chicks. More than what I got.

I think that I've said it somewhere before, but if the rumors about Denuvo are true then game publishers better get ready for lawsuits. Either developers have overstated piracy as a problem in order to cover themselves because they have made a low quality product or because the publisher meddling/unrealistic expectations. Really they should consider how much they stand to lose on piracy vs. how much they stand to lose with damaging DRM, still I think that DRM is mostly a investor reassurance. You'd think that publishers would be thinking about changing their production model, investing on creating programs that automate portions of the pipeline, creating and controlling low cost games that can become a safety net for bigger titles. They've been getting the shaft from distributors that undermine their profit by reselling their product for years but they have done nothing about it. When they could have easily used online distribution to bypass the distributors.

I'm hardly interested in Brianna Wu, but this... She's such an abrasive moron. What the hell is "mansplaining" anyway? All he did is provide evidence that her claim was untrue; why would the fact he is a man be even remotely relevant? There are people who think this brazen stupidity is acceptable? It is when you're a woman who needs no man or education. Generally, I would agree that some people can be condescending with their explanations but I wouldn't use a gender term instead. Just like I wouldn't use one instead of hysteria. -

I always found them ridiculous, gears for its own sake always discounting that art noveau was the popular style of the day. Is it too much to ask for some symmetry and some flow?

Technically it could only use Makeshi and Shii Cho effectively and maybe Juyo. Anything else and you end up cutting yourself...edgy Sith with their Linkin Park and their makeup.

Explanation for those who don't understand US tax laws? Charitable organizations are exempt from tax but they need to apply first. I'm guessing people think that she hasn't been paying her taxes, or that she is making people believe that's a charitable organization when its not. -
Is more on the fact that as technology improves consoles become more complex to the point of being specialized PCs, which they are now. So all the advantages of consoles are rendered null as they begin to have the same issues as PCs without any of the advantages. Eventually people will slowly migrate towards PCs. But the argument should stop at the fact that consoles have to become PCs in order to remain competitive, PC has won.
-
So in a time that everyone is trying to get a foothold on the PC market because consoles are going the way of the Dodo; BioWare bravely goes the other way. "Here lies BioWare, they rode the bull"

The thought process behind it was something along the lines of fun = power. Meaning that fun was something that privileged males had when they felt powerful and the antithesis of that was males feeling uncomfortable. Just another branch of the good old Marxist ideology of let's hate the white guy. Disclaimer: as a Hispanic man I give all whiteys full permission to feel outrage. -
You know what? It's a good move on Ubisoft part; after they gave the guy who made AC: 3 the Lead Designer job for Unity and it turned out to be a flop, the only thing they can do is apologize in the form of a free game. A free buggy game called FarCry 4 but let's not look a gift horse in the mouth.
