Tencent already has Larian and they did a great job with BG3 so what’s your issue?

As long as they don’t try to turn it into a microtransaction hell like only being able to play the classes you bought in their store, it’s going to be no different except Tencent has a ton of money for funding.

It’s not ‘insanely paranoid’ when it is correct.

Even the really big boys have shit security and almost no one invests in it.

I was called ‘insanely paranoid’ for not wanting any IoT things in my house even though I am an IT guy.

I told them ‘I don’t want IoT things in my house BECAUSE I’m an IT guy and know what I’m talking about.’

They ignored me of course, even companies that paid for my opinion and services.

And some paid the price, but funny enough that didn’t stop them from insecure practices, it just made them choose another brand of insecure IoT devices to replace the old.

And makes just holding it normally cause misclicks as the edge of your fingertips brush the curved glass.

Honestly I would be a lot less pissed about it if they just hadn’t extended the touch sensitivity all the way around the curve.

I never understood this

iPhones are fashion accessories before anything else.

Samsung for some fuckdamn reason just copycats everything Apple does.

The curved glass was a stupid, expensive, and failure prone attempt at capturing the fashion accessory market.

All it did was piss off eight years of customers.

It really is amazing how companies with ridiculous amounts of money for research and product testing and they hang on to an abject failure like this for so long.

Makes most of the endings very satisfying. Can’t wait till 2 goes on sale to learn more about pawn culture.

It was an easy hydra but you have no idea it is the first time the cutscene starts, felt very dark-soulsey there confronting you at low levels with a boss that fills the screen.

Bought it last night, have been playing 15 hours straight and I regret the absence of sleep.

But not enough to quit, I haven’t found a dungeon yet.

It’s a blast and brings together the best parts of so many games I love.

Sorry, you’re wrong. It’s good.

Nope

None of the assents are from pokemon, proportions don’t even get close to indicating that.

Proportions do not constitute imitating a copyrighted character.

Everything Palworld does is legal, people who disagree don’t understand copyright law or what is protected.

You can argue with me if you want, but you’re wrong.

After 4 decades of active video game play, the last year or so has been very empty for me.

Nothing seemed to be satisfying, nothing captured my attention for long.

Sure I got my Elden Ring character ready for the DLC, but not with enthusiasm.

Sure I made it to diamond in Duel Masters finally, but it brought me no joy.

I bought Palworld last night on a whim and it has been 15 hours and the only time I have stopped was to take care of basic needs.

I am engaged, excited, and enthusiastic to game for the first time in a very, very long time. And the last time I liked a game this much it was Elden Ring at launch and I literally did nothing for 3 months than eat, sleep, work and Elden Ring.

I feel that Palworld is heading in the same direction.

Is there jank? Sure, but nothing that has broken my enjoyment yet.

Fighting hydras when it goes right is just so damn satisfying.

I always thought of the repetitive dialogue was kind of a part of the pawn existence, they’re… not really people, so them acting wooden and repetitive fits well.

The loudest sign of a weak character is the inability to take responsibility for fuckups.

Respeccing doesn’t drop your level and I’m hoping with all the returners and new players the DLC brings that I can sunbro low level content like Stormveil and the early caves again.

After my fill of that I’ll level up to whatever content the DLC is geared to.

Plus this will give me a lvl 1 backup with most gear and spells for build testing.

Elden Ring getting ready for the DLC.

I have a lvl 1 char that I’ve beaten about 90% of the game with, gathered most of the items and spells that’s taken me about 7 months to get this far.

The plan is to beat everything but the last fight as lvl 1 so I can build to whatever is needed.

I have worked IT for 2 Fortune 500 companies and let me tell you NONE of them took data security seriously.

Neither has 90% of any of the other sites I’ve worked on.

In my experience so few companies bother spending appropriately on it because IT is considered a cost center instead of a needed service.
