I dunno, it's not very much . . . only A Handful of Missions. Be nice if there were A Few Missions More.

they do not forget easily.

OK, but maybe they forgive?

It seems like a stupid idea. I won't say it can't work, maybe it can. But what I'm getting is "From the makers of the game store nobody likes, a new game store you can't access at all unless you're already playing another game!"

I guess people who already play Fortnite might use it--for them, it's convenient. And there are quite a few of those people. And, that might keep them in the Fortnite universe for longer. Just that could probably be considered a success at Epic's real core mission of keeping Fortnite going as a huge phenomenon one year at a time. But it doesn't seem to me that likely it would become a success on a broader level than that, or that likely that it will pull more people into Fortnite just to use it as a game store.

So is there a sequel called "A Few Missions More"?

They've already stated in the interview videos that there won't be tiers.

Oh. Never mind, then.

I wouldn't be surprised if, like the Deck, this comes in a few tiers. In that scenario, the specs we're discussing would be the low-end tier, and people's concerns would be addressed by the higher tiers.

And, surprisingly, even though it's using Unreal Engine 5 most of the early reports on it have been quite positive.

This makes me wonder about the state of play in game engines. I mean, the two majors have been Unity and Unreal. Unity had its bit of, um, controversy a while ago, that pissed a lot of people off. And I see a lot of people with the opinion that the latest Unreal sucks. So where does that currently leave most game developers? Do they seem to be just shrugging and living with it? Are they increasingly kicking the tires of Godot? Are other engines seeing growth? What's going on?

No, that wouldn't . . . wait . . . thinks . . . thinks . . . OH! Right, I'm tacitly imagining that the mouse somehow "knows" its absolute position, but of course that can't be (well, short of a GPS thing in the mouse, which would be kind of overkill), so . . . huh.

The name gave me a chuckle.
