First one was the same 30 minutes on repeat. Same guns, same enemies, same environment, same everything. It was amazing just how little variety and content was in that thing. I was ignoring the sequel even before all this BS.

Google and abandoning services go together, I'm extremely hesitant to try anything they come out with.

Epic has launched a more successful PR campaign against Steam, they were able to get some blood in the water where EA was not. Also, strictly from a public perception perspective(alliteration win!), Epic at the end of the day made its bones with Unreal with roots in PC Gaming and EA is of...

Also pretty much every game on my Steam Store page is an Indy game, so I don't know about the idea of them not getting visibility.

I understand that, though I wouldn't go as far as to call them a Monopoly(there is significantly more stores than Epic, many quoted in this thread). It's just irrelevant. It's 70/30 now, did it used to be more in line with Epic? Or was it 70/30 back when Steam was getting credit for sparking...

It's less having to install multiple clients and more having to manage multiple game libraries in disparate locations, all of which may have significant dollars invested in them. It's the downside of digital distribution I suppose. Origin, Steam, Epic, Microsoft, Battle.net. Each one has...

I very specifically remember how proud your Dad was of you, the light shined through all the posts he spoke of you. He was a great guy, a pioneer, a leader and unique person. All this is especially more apparent in hindsight, as the net has changed and I've matured. I was a little...

Also, Shield's great, I have one so I could play Atmos audio(no one else had an offering). I just consider it extremely expensive for what it does and wasn't pleased that I couldn't' find a cheaper alternative. Basically paying $150 above a Roku/Fire/Chrome/whatever for Atmos and ability to...

I bought one for $2.50 when it was on sale, very happy I got it and I use it all the time. Generally I'm playing with my wife, I'm in the decked out home theater and she's streaming off my office PC to our relatively decked out living room. I always wanted one, but couldn't justify the $50...

This. Obviously he's damned good, but for the most part he puts himself in a situation where he only needs to aim horizontally, he always snaps back and keeps the crosshair at head level. I used to read about people putting tape on their monitor to designate the height where the heads are at...

Answer to this question has been provided rather in depth in this thread. In short, Notes is more than just a messaging system and generally has a significant amount of custom code written for it, there is no clear cut product replacement and even once identified there is a significant...

Having run a professional services team for a consulting company, I can confidently say this is not correct. But there are a lot of factors. Hourly or fixed pricing, full time or contracting. Benefits. Your ability and willingness to negotiate, your skillset, customers budget, customers...

I'm sure people maintaining the software do not want to change ever, what job security. But if you have a 1 out of a 100 skillset while the 99 out of a 100 would get the job done. Sorry, keep your skills up to date and deal with the change. Not even getting into your apparent...

I didn't even pick up on it being over 2 years, unless this is part time, that's desktop support wages.

So 90 bucks an hour for archaic skills? I sell those for 250, sounds like a bargain. Yes, of course they should be planning the move off Lotus, but some people in the thread seem to be under the idea that this just means standing up a new empty solution. Instead of, you know, what is likely a...
