Well that's certainly ominous

So nobody actually claimed they were robots. This article is just sensationalist clickbait garbage for people who really want to see a chinese company get "BUSTED!" for something. Twitter replies are full of racism.

if we consider alyx to be the third installment then we have hl3 already

That doesn't count. It's a prequel, it doesn't continue the story (except like 5 seconds), and it doesn't resolve the cliffhanger we were left on.

Wait a moment, did anyone actually think those were robots? Did anyone claim they were actual robots? I saw the videos going around and people were generally just impressed at the makeup and costume work.

Replies in the twitter link make me laugh though.

@VicBeeSee: Full on idiotic post, the company didn't pretend they were robots.

@Byron_Wan: It did… it didn’t tell others that those were human beings.

This either sounds like someone trying to make an issue out of nothing, or someone who got momentarily tricked and is embarrassed about it.

First question: You use

--download-sections "*00:00-10:00"

as an option to download the first 10 minutes. The asterisk means the numbers are treated as a timestamp instead of looking for a chapter with that title.

Second question I don't know.

Because Microsoft hasn't yet captured 100% of the PC gaming demographic, thankfully.

Worth noting that the boomer wojak meme started as "That 30 year old boomer". It was never about actual Baby Boomers.

As if someone took the concept of spaghetti code and applied it to an entire company.

Anything good?

Then all of them. They are human beings, not black holes of pure evil.

I'd love a city builder based on making gritty industrial cyberpunk megacities, with plenty of verticality and layering. You know, the places where there's nothing but concrete, steel and neon for kilometers both horizontally and vertically, and a colonies of mutant cannibals fighting against giant rats in the derelict areas near the bottom.
