No I’m not shilling. Germany literally just recently shut them all down, and now are complaining about rising energy costs sending them into a recession. A problematic move that was predicted by just about everybody, even most germans thought it was a bad idea.

And now we have this article. Pro nuclear or not, axing a huge chunk of your country’s power production in an age of exponentially growing power demands, is definitely not a good idea.

Germany: shuts down all their nuclear power plants.

Also Germany: why is power so expensive?

This is literally the first I’m hearing of this game.

Just about every single Asian country that has ocean territory has complained about China entering its waters without permission.

Guy wouldn’t know majesty if it bit him in the face!

-that happened once

Computer over. Virus = very yes

The problem with making things you make free, is that people as a whole are terribly selfish and lazy. They will take anything free and claim them as their own. Individually, tons of people will respect the wishes of original creators, but it only takes 1 single person who doesn’t care who will ruin it. The problem is the Internet has billions of 1’s. You can ask please don’t copy my freely available thing all you want, but it’ll never happen. There will always be those that will repost as thier own. From ideas to assets, nothing is sacred when it comes to the masses.

Well if my advice isn’t relevant, they can ignore it and have had lost nothing. Maybe you can explain what thier issues are.

I haven’t played X4, but I’ve played a lot of elite dangerous, and some of the problems you describe happened to me in ED as well. And like X4, ED did not explain it at all. I had to learn it from watching videos about the game, and other discussions in other forums. So maybe there are similarities in what I experienced

The speed limiting was due to being within close proximity to planets and stars who’s gravitational field prevents you from accelleratin quickly. If you are in open space, you accelerate very quickly, and can go faster than if you are close to something large. So maybe it has something to do with where you are.

I’ve had boost disabled randomly for me and I didn’t know why, but eventually I learned it was because I had been deploying my cargo scoop by accident and not realizing it before I got blown up. Maybe there is a ship module or function you are accidentally toggling that disables it?

That’s an annoying aspect of these space sim games, but one I’ve come to appreciate as learning the complex intricacies of flying a spaceship feels rewarding in its own right. Like being able to describe what every little button and switch does in an airplane, or a recoding stuido’s sound board. It makes you feel like you’re really mastering a skill, instead of just playing a game.

Is that not just 2.4 trillion?

I mean, it’s true they have a lot of games that use predatory systems designed to trick you into spending more money than you need to. As well as games that are designed purely on capitalizing on base feeling of satisfaction of big number go up. But I feel like this is akin to suing casinos for their games having odds in their favor.

How much of it is on the company, and how much on the player? Like where is the line? If a game is designed to be solely addictive with no other value or purpose, probably should not be acceptable, but how do you make that determination as a games value is different for every individual.

Almost impossible to make a blanket judgement on this, and any legal precedent set by this lawsuit will be troublesome no matter which outcome.

Can’t wait to hear about space X satellites falling out of a window.

I think we’re all confused by the question.

TikTok just starts showing a lot of Bill Cosby shorts for some reason.

Pretty similar to what’s going on with Twitter right now.

This is why developers stop listening to feedback. Because so much feedback is trash.

I’ve hopped into quickplays with people bitching about how nerfed it is, how shitty everything has become, and how terrible the devs are… While actively using the “nerfed” weapons and are completely stomping over a mission.

I don’t blame the devs for snarky and troll comments. We players deserve them.

In the end, nothing. I had a good solid 9 months of a job I loved, with decent enough pay. But then tanks to corporate execs laid off the entire IT team and outsourced it to a staffing company and reduced the size of the team from 100+ to about 8.

I’m still there because I still need the pay, but now it’s just like every other garbage corporate job out there. Miserable and soul sucking.

Ah it was easy enough to get the iron key unlocked during post, as those HP servers take forever to boot, problem was the bios couldn’t recognize the USB. Whatever firmware is on it that does the security confused the system, and while it saw the drive, it didn’t know what it was and wouldn’t boot from it. In both uefi mode, and in legacy bios mode

One thing I can tell you, it’s that you can’t use them as bootable drives to install an OS from. And if you try to pass the USB connection from an ESXi host to a VM on it, it won’t work.

Aside from that, they’re really annoying to work with.

Stuck huh? So FFXVI doesnt count?

The last 20 years spent on FFXIV doesn’t count?

Dragon Quest, doesn’t count?

SaGa Emerald Beyond doesn’t count?

Foamstars… Well arguable if it counts.

Point is, they are not stuck. It is far from the only thing they are making. They just have created an amazing world with FFVII with great lore, great characters, and an amazing story. Multiple games taking place in that world is not that crazy of an idea, nor is it uncommon in the RPG genre. Some of the games sucked, the remakes are awesome. It’s grown beyond a single game at this point, it’s a series. Making more games in a series, does not make a company stuck, especially when they are still release games in other series.
