Majority of gamers play with subtitles turned on

For films, you have idiots like Christopher Nolan who's head is so far up his own ass he can probably see daylight. He purposefully mixes the audio poorly so nobody can hear anything, and likes it that way because .... something something something immersion artsy bullshit. I couldn't even finish watching Tenet, we turned it off halfway through because we had zero clue what was going on, and I will refuse to ever watch another Nolan film after that.

For games, I think it's just poor mixing, I doubt they mean to do it on purpose. They just don't invest in the proper audio people.

Cyberpunk 2077 was “better than it was received,” CDPR dev says

Reply in thread

This is what it is. It's not the state that it launched in. It's that they literally lied about what the game was (I still swear that it's not even an rpg, because nothing you do matters, it's a story driven action adventure game) and kept promising features they KNEW were not present, but still kept doing it. Same as No Mans Sky. Just blatently lied repeatedly and then blame the fans "because it was cool to hate us" .... UM NO.

Meta cancels Quest Pro, stops development of Quest Pro 2

It'll be hilarious in several years time when they've completely abandoned the entire VR multiverse concept, when they have to explain to people what their company name means.

"Well you see, our king lordship decided that we must set fire to several hundred billion dollars, there was nothing else we could do with it, so we did."

Happy Father's Day

Thanks! I’m spending my first Father’s Day with my brother who’s also a first time father! We are conspiring on ways our little ones (first cousins) can become fast friends. It’s also fun sharing stories since we are at almost the same stages.
