Beyond Earth but I see your point, Civ has had several of these https://civilization.fandom.com/wiki/Civilization_(series)#Spinoffs
Point being that they can experiment and do something a little different, I don’t think that the quality of the spinoff indicates the quality of the main franchise.
I don’t think this means ES6 is doomed. Did anyone play the Civ space game? It was an offshoot one-off experiment that wasn’t really well recieved and they quietly moved on.
My guess is that this game pivoted during development and they ended up with something that didn’t really work and shouldn’t have shipped. The failure to find something good in this experiment may be isolated to this game.
The fact that they released it in the state they did could be more about their workflow and project pipeline/target milestones they need to hit than it is about their ability to execute.
The failure here is in design, ES6 has a tried and true design to follow.
So does Hakeem Jeffries’ BluePac, and that’s why leadership gave him a promotion.
They’ve been so busy building the party to be fully accessible to financial interests that the corruption is what stands out most prominently to a public that can’t tell the difference between either party.
The Pod Save America ep from today discussed this, Jon Lovett said that Trump has often talked about being a target in a public place and may well have thought about what he would do in that moment. ‘hes a showman’.
Too spooky for me
Israel has dehumanized the people of Palestine for a long time. This is not at all surprising. The western world looks the other way for decades to avoid the uncomfortable truth.
Unpopular opinion but I think the game is in it’s best state currently. I spent $40 on 2016 and haven’t had to pay a dime since and I’m not playing this PVP game for it’s PVE so this stuff doesn’t matter to me. Blizzard is a husk of its former self and I’m still bitter about HOTS but am actually having a lot of fun playing comp this season.
Wouldn’t surprise me if they created this news cycle intentionally to make the point. Upcoming ‘election’ and all.
I didn’t say click random, the point is that there is a ton of content but most people only watch the 0.1% that they pump all the marketing budget into but there are tons of great award winning critically acclaimed shows and movies that people don’t bother with, that they would enjoy. I use justwatch.com to filter content.
Sure, it would be great to have access to everything all the time, all I’m saying is that if you have a small amount of discipline and your life isn’t crushed by fomo then subscribing to one at a time is sufficient while priced reasonably.
Any one of these streaming services has enough content to kill a victorian-era child.
I’ve never been subscribed to three at once and have never felt there wasn’t enough options for watchably good media. I can’t speak for you but I think a lot of people get caught up in the trending shows and miss out on the back catalogs.
I think streaming is very affordable but only if you have the discipline to be patient about the most popular show this month not being available to you until later when you switch services.
Movies have been very expensive in the short term period after theatrical release, that’s why blockbuster would charge $60 if you lost the tape, it’s how much they sold to rental stores for before wide release. This higher price is absurd to me but to the studios it’s a premium for all the hype they built up, the price will come down after a few months. They are still working out the new models and testing the waters to see what floats.
My bar for their games is high and its been exceeded. I would be happier if it had every feature I can dream up but if I wanted a game that had an infinite scope and an endless development cycle I’d just pay $10k for a ship in star citizen and hope it releases before I die. Thankfully I’m able to enjoy a game made by one of the most lauded and successful video game developers in the world and not be a curmudgeon about it.
Not trying to be a dick, just seems like everyone else is. Don’t buy it if you need x feature and it isn’t there, maybe they will learn a lesson and make the game you wanted them to next time.
A plane crash can make it easier to claim an alive man is dead as there may not be a body.
I could see this as a means to keep Wagner troops loyalties in check, or just to keep everyone guessing. The most likely scenario though is that Putin did what Putin does which is assassination.
Here is a video about both if interested. https://youtu.be/bQZAg4RwuZU

This interview with James Cameron is pretty good, talks about the design issues in detail.
Sounds like too much for me, thanks for the report!
Of what you’ve seen so far, what % of your time with the game is gameplay vs story/cutscene?
We’ve got time, at this rate it will be 2031 before their next release.
And we’ll come up with a name that merges climate and technology, let’s call it skynet.
