This is old news but I do often think about the flaw in Tim Sweeney's strategy to try and bully apple and Microsoft into making their platforms work his way.
Honestly Epic should have got in the Linux bandwagon years ago so they could provide their own hardware.
I think you've hit it. He's not evil as much as opportunistic and amoral.
I saw this mini documentary about him where he simply admitted he would do anything to be famous. If the documentary is to be believed, he started filming random acts of kindness because he tried everything else and failed to achieve his goal of being famous.
I'm out of the loop. Is Taylor Swift a jet now? I tried to google Taylor Swift as a jet and ended up on reddit.com/r/aeromorph . . .

If unions are illegal, police unions should be illegal too.
For real this guy's entire empire is built on stiffing everyone and anyone.
I think there are more than a few factors here but it mostly has to do with the natural loss of talent game studios have endured over the last decade.
Arkham series had 3 games on the same engine that were able to have multiple iterations of each title allowing the codebase and talent to grow naturally with the games. It's been 8 years since Arkham Knight. If I recall that game was poorly received at launch. Though it's made a lot of money, it didn't make as much as it should have. After that I can imagine the entire team getting a shake up at rock steady.
The first Arkham game came out in 2009, with the way that layoffs and churn works in the game industry, I can't imagine many people left from the original series being left on this new title. Who is going to make the same Batman game for nearly a decade and a half?
The effect of the inevitable loss of talented individuals was something the game industry was forecasting 10+ years ago. I really think this is what we're dealing with more so across the board.
I'm going to skip this game. Maybe I'll play something simple like Momodora or go touch grass.
Agreed. They should but there are these Cafe Standards that need to be dealt with. The cars have to be larger to be exempt because we're using wheel base to help determine fuel economy (it should be weight not wheelbase) These exemptions need to go away.

"This is so backwards" one would think and then one realizes that all advertising is deception.
The judge tacitly acknowledges this truth.
Here's what that means - demand a refund, start a class action suit, idk every corp is doing this rug pull at the same time hoping they can get in before the law catches up.
How does one start a class action suit?
