Apparently, letting them work on another game wasn't an option... Shame about all that talent lost, just because someone in the upper echelons took on a project they weren't ready for.

That's the saddest gaming news I have seen in a while. I was SO looking forward to delete the last EA game from my SSD (Sims 4). I guess I will be stuck with them a bit longer.

Not sure what's going on with Paradox lately.

Quoting: PublicNuisanceI think that this is why they don't mention her at all. By not doing so they don't have to tackle that question. For those who chose to have her die she is dead.

Quest spoiler below:

Spoiler, click me

There is still the question how Max's rewind powers would still work if she let Chloe die in the end. If I remember correctly, Chloe's "spirit" (symbolized by the butterfly) was what granted her the power in the first place. Once Max got back in time and chose not to save Chloe, everything you ever did in the game got erased from history, and the rewind power should, at least in theory, have died with Chloem no?

Nice! And I am surprised it will get a native version. Wasn't expecting anyone but Valve to still do native versions. My only hope is for a less childish art-style this time.

Quoting: Jarmer

Quoting: Kimyrielle

Quoting: ArehandoroObsidian are great. I wish they could have stayed independent, though.

They were great. Past tense. I loved most games they used to make, but I have zero interest in the games they're making these days. Not sure why some devs think everybody loves first person games. I certainly don't.

I mean, you really need to ask that question? ................ Skyrim is one of the most popular and highest selling games .. EVER. In history.

Fallout games (like all of them) are incredibly popular.

Dragon Age series.

Deus Ex series.

Far Cry series.

Cyberpunk.

Borderlands.

I could keep going for a very long time.

The reason some devs think everyone loves first person games ........ is because everyone loves first person games. LOL.

Most of the games you listed can be played in third person (yes, I played Skyrim, Fallout, Dragon Age). People really need to think before they post.

LOL

But yes, maybe they would still make great games if MS wouldn't have bought them. Big business has that tendency to kill everything it touches, so there is that.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyGood news! I'm still wondering what's up with the increasingly strong difference between the apparent growth speed of desktop Linux on the web (as noted here ), and the relatively slow growth of desktop Linux on Steam.

Speculating here, but it could be because of some governments moving away from using Windows for their administration. These Linux PCs would be seen on on web, but not on Steam.

Personally, it just left me stunned about how there really doesn't seem to be any limit on the absurd things corporations (and governments) are inflicting on us these days. I am pretty sure nobody asked for that feature. And it's so in-your-face obviously problematic in so many ways that even Microsoft must have known it. They really don't care. Not one bit. We're just sheep to them. That's the simple truth.

The sad thing is that close to 100% of all Windows users won't even realize that this "feature" is there. They will never even realize that they're getting permanently watched. And knowing MS, you will need a registry hack to disable it, or at least click through three layers of settings in places you wouldn't look for them.
