Really burying the lede there.
If the headline is a question, the answer is always no.

Konami, as a video games company, died the day it fired Kojima.
I’m no Kojima fanboy, as the guy is all over the place on story and structure. But, Konami made that decision in favor of pachinko machines, so that choice gets to haunt them and disgrace them as a company for the rest of its life.
I love my network pork! Tastes like bacon!
No, the imagery was supposed to invoke the rave culture at the time. Lots of men, women, boys, and girls doing X, and the pills usually were white like that.
Bottom line is it FUCKING worked. The PS2 sold like toilet paper.
You really didn’t need the ads. PS2 absolutely dominated because they were the ones with the all of the huge publishers. Sega, Nintendo, and Microsoft couldn’t hold a candle to the sheer amount of great exclusives. It was only when Xbox 360 and later the Wii came out did the console wars start to shift.
I wish it would combine comments for crossposts. It doesn’t have to break per-server instance bans or anything like that. Just combine the comments for servers that are friendly with each other.
I think the old ZA/UM developers still have a chance to reform as a new company and work on something new. After a while, this new company can buy off the remains of a now-defunct ZA/UM, get back the rights to Disco Elysium and the Sacred and Terrible Air universe, and make another game or three for it.
But, it has to happen now, and we need to stop talking about ZA/UM. Focus on a new project. I don’t quite understand why we haven’t heard any news about this.
Is Kurvitz and team so depressed about the current situation to not attempt at picking things back up again? They have so much hype it’s unreal. So, it’s nowhere near as hard as just getting your name out there like ZA/UM and Disco Elysium, and it would never flop as hard as Sacred and Terrible Air. They’ve made it. They have recognizable names, and if they ever re-form, it would be all over the gaming sites.
Some of the more extreme-minded liberals do a good enough job at sabotaging themselves and the movements they are a part of, without the need for malicious saboteurs. Like Atheist+ or progressive stack.
Then again, Russians orgs are out there, trying to influence politic movements and sabotage others. GamerGate was an entire sea of political actors, journalists, influencers, and Russian agents, trying to push their own narratives to the point of mass disinformation from both sides, with the general public on either side confused and angry at the other’s responses.
Defund means to essentially get rid of a department or thing. The phrase “defend the police” means “get rid of the police”. It doesn’t matter if there’s some cartoon to re-explain away the phrase or a bunch of other people trying to re-define the English language. English is English, and words have meaning.
The “defund the police” movement failed because us liberals don’t fucking understand marketing. Like, at all. I can’t count the number of times some liberal movement crops up with their slogan and Republicans turn that slogan against them because nobody spent the ten minutes time to think about how that phrase or thing could be abused. For example, that brief time when the LGBT movement wanted to rename themselves to LGBTQIA2SUVWTFBBQ? Seriously?!?
It’s like naming your baby “Assman McAssface” and wondering why he gets bullied in school.
Agent Smth?
I use it all the time. It works fine.
WB already fucked things up before he arrived, and Zaslov has just made things worse.
What a waste. Eliminate even did a launch event for the game.
All of this talent poured into this thing, just to get fucked by the monetization model.
You honestly, in your heart of hearts, believe that WB learns?
Obviously, LTT doesn’t see the long-term benefit of retraining his team to not be attached to monthly subscription bullshit.
Short-term quarterly-profit energy.
A friendly reminder that GIMP and Da Vinci Resolve are things that exist.
