[desert sonnet]

I think Newgrounds humor translated into Adult Swim shows like Squidbillies and Aqua Teen. After that idk

[inner arrow]

Yeah those old egoraptor videos don't hold up anymore

[mellow roost]

Yeap.

[inner arrow]

Did I just had really bad humor back then?

[mellow roost]

Nah, internet humor was just different. It was a lot more...uhh...awkward, edgy, and lacked any real grace.

[quasi echo]

Ac origins is sad

[merry palm]

mhm

[mellow roost]

So I guess in some way, sure, it was an unrefined sense of humor, but... ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[inner arrow]

Well... Oneyng "Wingardium Leviosa" video is 10 years old and still makes me laugh

[mellow roost]

One of the few things I think holds up better than most is the parody version of The Ultimate Showdown.

And I'm not gunna explain any further. If you know, great, if you don't...oh well.

[desert sonnet]

I wonder if the Madness series holds up. Lemme check

[inner arrow]

Yeah those generally hold up better than some of the humor stuff

[mellow roost]

I feel like Madness has a lot more longevity to it, yeah.

[inner arrow]

Especially since they made a great game of it not long ago

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p85VHMpE0to This is one of the best games of this year

[mellow roost]

Flash games were really something.

[inner arrow]

A diving rpg with restaurant sim elements

[mellow roost]

Oh? Well that's new.

[inner arrow]

Totally agree. Played so many flash games back in the day.

[desert sonnet]

Yep Madness still awesome. Watching Apotheosis now

[inner arrow]

Well Restaurant sim and diving RPG aren't new genres 😛

[tired hare]

"30% of users doesnt play cod" ya probably because most of us are sick of cod

[true plinth]

I think it's much more than 30% lol

[inner arrow]

Restaurant sims are a lot on steam. And Diving RPG for example is everblue 1 and 2 on PS2

Oh... She said 66%

5% in the survey say they would switch.

[long maple]

Florian hasnt tweeted in ages. most people fell asleep I think lol

Nvidia is up next but yeah nearly Lunch break

[mellow roost]

Something that I feel those types of surveys don't really account for is...just the simple fact that those people aren't in that moment, so out of the 5% who said they'd switch, maybe only 1% actually would.

[long maple]

yeah people can change their minds its not a definitive thing

[merry palm]

still data

[true plinth]

On top of that did they specify how large the surveyed people are, the age brackets... It's very easy to lie with statistics.

[merry palm]

ooo lunch break

[long maple]

they going through YouGov survey for CMA

[true plinth]

And why the heck is Nvidia being called in why do they care if Microsoft buys actiblizard? People will still need graphics cards?

[merry palm]

https://tenor.com/view/doggy-pizza-food-lunch-dinner-gif-17245091

[fiery python]

Because they have a cloud service

[long maple]

because of the 10 year deal to CoD/Activision titles

[true plinth]

The CMA? So not the USA? Isn't the CMA Europe?

[limpid flicker]

CMA is UK.

[tacit robin]

we might get some pears after lunch in court with all these apples for apples and orange for oranges or not lol

[true plinth]

So the American ftc is using Europe numbers? ...

[long maple]

yeah Microsoft are trying to understand all the numbers.. what do they mean 😄

[inner arrow]

No Kylie... the numbers say 5%. Think of the numbers

[true plinth]

This is some Scott Steiner level math

[limpid flicker]

[tacit robin]

the judge got angry with him at the end because he couldn't answer questions about is data that he's providing to the court

[merry palm]

[true plinth]

Is he Microsoft or is he the opposition?

[merry palm]

[true plinth]

Wrong tag sorry

[long maple]

he was called up by FTC, but already put his report in few days back? and Microsoft were just cross-examining his information that was posted

[true plinth]

Who is he?

There are so many ways for that to be the wrong answer.

[merry palm]

[inner arrow]

She is the MVP of this case so far

[long maple]

[winter forum]

Music and video game chain of shops

[tired hare]

It's 2023 every beat has been made every story has been written every joke has been told

[limpid flicker]

HMV started out as a record shop, they also sell DVDs and Blu-Rays and games. I'm unsure how they stay in business anymore.

[winter forum]

Not as bad as the sweet shops you see everywhere that are 100% a money laundering outfit

By selling tshirts, Pop figures and other collectibles. Same as GAME

[quasi hatch]

I'm playing the Witcher on Xbox

[winter forum]

Game were bought out by the bloke behind sports direct though, they nearly went bust

[tacit robin]

They are still in business they went into administration for there retail stores only and closed most of there stores a few years ago but they starting to come back. They always stayed trading online

[fiery python]

Yep, that's why most of their stores are closing and they're being shunted into a corner of Sports Direct

[true plinth]

But do they sell magic the gathering?

[fiery python]

Yes

[winter forum]

Reminds me of Gamestation and Blockbuster

[fiery python]

Gamestation was so much better than Game. Shame they bought them out and shut down their better competition

[winter forum]

And electronics boutique. I miss the competition

[long maple]

yep, we had 2 game stores at one point back when I lived in Coventry

[winter forum]

Eyyyy wum black country bros

[tacit robin]

yeah gamestation went into administration and most of there stores were brought by game. Then game had 3 to 4 stores in alot of towns and closed most of them. Then they went into administration and were brought out by Mike Ashley the guy that owned Newcastle football club and sports direct

[winter forum]

Rhinne thinking: please don't set him off 🤭

[tired hare]

GameStop? More like
"Please subscribe to our membership"
"FunkoPopStop"
"You must be 18 to play Smash Bros Brawl, sorry"
"We can't give you the original case, but we can spit in it and crack the disc in half for you"
"Are you SURE you don't want to become a Pro member?"
"Sorry, that Xbox 360 game will be $59.99"
"We don't have any Xbox games, we've replaced it with a funko section"
"You should get the membership, Pre-Order Duke Nukem Foreverer (you will get a keychain) and pay a 6$ protection fee if you want to live"

[lyric jetty]

now you can find Game inside Sports Direct in a lot of city centres 😆

still such a weird sight

[tacit robin]

yep and there tiny

[true plinth]

You got a duke nukem statue that I have not a keychain ... But very accurate

[winter forum]

Thing with HMV is their stuff isn't even cheap, like records and CDs

[tired hare]

Duke Nukem Forever-er

Devs aren't a fan of Jim Ryan https://twitter.com/Witdarkstar/status/1673743836894605312

Patrick Wren (@Witdarkstar)

No game dev willingly tries to put out an inferior release with less quality and more bugs. No one would do that. We want to make things that people enjoy and will always try to ship the best product despite any circumstances.

For Jim Ryan to suggest otherwise that is asinine.

They had a sports direct in Turkey

[tacit robin]

An other retailer thats coming back to the high street is Toys R US they went bust few years back too. There opening again in some towns. Coming to a town just 6 miles from me in fact. I loved toys r us as a kid

[winter forum]

You mean a magical place with millions says Geoffrey all under one roof?

[inner arrow]

I honestly feel like Ryan completely lost a lot of rep for Sony with this whole trial. He in general isn't a favorable character in the gaming industry by the stuff he has said before but this whole trial shows him in a really really bad way.

It might have been better for him to be not involved at all. But here we are now.

[dreamy nest]

I never went to Toys R US, was too expensive. But they held yugioh tournaments there, so I did that at least

[long maple]

yeah it was further away only remember going there couple times

[dreamy nest]

I remember I had no idea how to play yugioh and the kid I was playing against got irriated at me

[lyric jetty]

they used to have one at Birstall, it's become The Range now

Jim was on a pre-recorded video from April 6th. and it didnt help the FTC one bit.

[inner arrow]

Actually harmed more than help. Same with the witness rn. Altho Lee still has time to recover.

[serene kraken]

I think the only place I can go to buy new games in store now is Smyths, both GameStop and Argos closed here

[versed swan]

omg no way 😭 how could that have possibly helped

[dreamy nest]

Jim "No Charisma" Ryan amirite, just memeing but the previous guy was far more palatable

[quasi hatch]

What was his name

[lyric jetty]

The FTCs analyst isn't helping either

[winter forum]

Argos is in Sainsbury's now. The one by me has Splatoon 3 in stock, was there last weekend

[inner arrow]

To quote the judge... "He is getting there"

Shawn Layden

[inner arrow]

Without Layden we wouldn't have ended up in this mess.

[serene kraken]

Tesco does some games here but not many, usually only big releases

[long maple]

yeah for sure.. they messed the numbers up thats why the CMA thing was included. with the 5 years thing vs 1 year.

I wonder how much longer he gonna talk once they get back

[winter forum]

Memberberry but Asda used to be so good for games releases, massive section of new and chart stuff

[inner arrow]

Probably another hour

Unless of course the Judge cuts him short.

[tired hare]

What's going on in the deal

[lyric jetty]

also Doom in case you never got confirmation Jim did indeed say Overwatch 2 wasn't on playstation

[obsidian kayak]

Did another sale replace the ID@xbox sale?

[inner arrow]

Yes I know. And as said before... He lied

[tired hare]

Is todays hearing done may I ask

[inner arrow]

He lied quite a bit actually and even went against his own stance.
"We don't see Nintendo as a competitor"
"But Nintendo makes consoles right?"
"Yes that is correct"
"So they are your competitor right?"
"Yes that is correct"

[obsidian kayak]

QR

[tired hare]

Six Flags flash pass

[hollow hawk]

What a nice qr code I wonder where it leads to
(Don't scan random QRs)

[tired hare]

It is my Six Flags flash pass you can print it out and use it i don't want it

[inner arrow]

Or that one part where Ryan said something about how Xbox is not a publisher and then a sentence later confirmed to the question if Xbox is a publisher with Yes

[long maple]

not done, its a lunch break now, nothing interesting going on. just an expert trying to explain about if a game was taken off one platform how much percent would it be. but the Judge and Lawyer are helping him cause he wont give a straight answer

also going through CMA numbers that he helped with

[inner arrow]

He probably needs to do it again. Cause he doesn't take into account a lot of other things like the game coming to Nintendo console for example.

[desert knot]

I’m guessing most likely the purchase won’t go through? Hasn’t been keeping up.

[long maple]

from this :- https://www.theverge.com/2023/3/16/23642922/microsoft-uk-cma-response-math-activision-blizzard-deal

[tired hare]

It probably will

And then Sony then will in respond buy sqaure enix

[long maple]

the purchase will be fine.. atleast FTC wont be getting the PI they need, cause not much positive has come out of the 3 days yet for FTC

[desert knot]

I honestly have no interest in AB

[tired hare]

Which I hate a world where sqaure will be owned by Sony because then we have to wait even longer for ff PC releases but it's corporations world in gaming and we are living in it

[long maple]

I am only here to get more games on Game Pass.

[lyric jetty]

I'm here because it's the current hit thing to talk about

[tired hare]

Man I'm just here to pray they throw wow on gamepass to have 1 less thing to sub to

[desert knot]

If I could choose one company Microsoft could magically buy it’d be capcom

[tired hare]

How can I stream to YouTube using a series S

[lyric jetty]

WoW brings them too much. They'll throw a mount into Game Pass Perks and call it a day

[long maple]

CMA argument is over Cloud and thinking its a Separate market. which Stadia guy already helped with. Nvidia are talking later I think over video call

[tired hare]

I mean put it on gàmepass ultimate they lose a total of 0 subscribers and 0 monies get what they want out of it gamepass subs

[fiery python]

You can't.

[tired hare]

That's my argument in that case

[halcyon stratus]

WoW on game pass would be a massive change on the financials of blizzard. It definitely is not a “day 1” kind of change

[tired hare]

Used to be able to through the yt app can't anymore

[fiery python]

WoW on Game Pass would be a terrible move.

[long maple]

and Steve Singer from Nintendo is being called up sometime.. but he was trying to evade a subpoena eventually they sent it by FedEx to him lol

[true plinth]

I mean I would sub to games pass if the sub was included not the most recent expac.

[tired hare]

Probably in the case of it's at least coming to Xbox and my other predicition is it comes to steam and the other battle net things go to ultimately practically kill off battlenet

[true plinth]

Also I found a nice German rap about beer and it's making me chuckle.

[tired hare]

See its not nessicarly the worst decision they can makr

[fiery python]

I'd rather keep paying. I don't think it would be good for the game to include it with Game Pass, because they'll put even more monetisation into it to profit from the 'free' subscribers.

[tired hare]

Man wow already has enough p2w as is lool

[true plinth]

They already did with the new traders post rhinne. And wow tokens and the other "services "

[fiery python]

It's not pay to win, it's all cosmetic.

[fiery python]

I know, which is why I don't want there to be more.

[tired hare]

Incorrect level boosts wow tokens etc etc

[fiery python]

It's still not pay to win.

[true plinth]

Just boosting level often hurts more than helps to be honest

Yeah you got a 60/70 character but you don't know how to play your class.

[tired hare]

For a mmo it most definitely hurts

Let's put quin69 as a example with ff14 he boosted to max and failed to keep up with seasonal players

[true plinth]

Who?

[tired hare]

Quin used to be a massive wow streamer

[fiery python]

Exactly, so not pay to win

[tired hare]

I'm unsure what he's doing atm

[true plinth]

Only wow streamers I know of are towlie and asmon

[tired hare]

Tbh I hope one day asmon returns to ff14

I think alot of people would like to see it but I don't think at this current point in time he wants to do it

[candid hull]

Jim ryan just said all publishers hate gamepass in court lol smh

[tired hare]

Tbh i think ultinately people were against wow tokens in general I think ultimately wow is heading down a path thats slowly killing the game and I'm hoping Xbox does something to revive the game

[true plinth]

Give me gears of war and master chief cosmetics!

[inner arrow]

Not exactly what he said.

[brave wasp]

Did he really 🤣

[tired hare]

But I do think ultimately if it's not on gamepass it will at least get a console and steam port which ultimately leads battlenets death for 1 and for 2 a bigger wider playerbase

[true plinth]

I want my vulpera hunter to have a gears of war lancer so bad lol.

[tired hare]

And console ports of mmos like wow does indeed work

[inner arrow]

He was quoted. Then got asked if that is what he believes and he said yes. When asked "All publishers?" he dismissed the answer by saying "I talk to publishers all the time"

[long maple]

Final Fantasy 16 is being talked about again

Every thing you do is saved to a massive database (I think)

Wow... Dude is now uncertain about COD games coming to Gamepass

[tired hare]

Dude doesn't know what's going on lool

[stray pivot]

Didn't the deal go though?

[halcyon stratus]

clearly not

I bet Phil Spencer is shaking his head, he is sitting there too

[stray pivot]

I thought it did my bad man

He never touched an IDE in his entire life and claims Switch isn't able to run a cod

It's here under Cross-Play and Cross-Save along with other questions for your future reference.

[halcyon stratus]

you can tell that it went through by how the last half hour people have been talking abotu the currently running legal proceeding that will help determine if the deal goes through , lol

[stray pivot]

I mean to be fair it can hardly run Fortnite.

[inner arrow]

It can still run it.

[stray pivot]

Not very well.

Lol... "We would sit here too if Sony would buy Activision right?"
silence

[tired hare]

It can also run witcher somehow it's a maricle but it can do it same prob will go for Hogwarts legacy

Optimization is a gift

[stray pivot]

The amount of optimization would be crazy

But it's possible it have it run

[inner arrow]

"AAA games don't come out frequently" 👀 What?

[stray pivot]

My mistake. I'm sorry.

[tired hare]

Hogwarts legacy is confirmed to be on switch natively so optimization is happening so honestly cod can run on a switch

[quasi echo]

ok im convinced the FTC hasnt touched a single gaming console

[tired hare]

Now in terms of can run with Xbox PC graphics it's impossible

[inner arrow]

Every game can be downgraded enough graphically that it will run on the switch.

[rich nexus]

PS Plus Extra/Premium and owners and Xbox Gamepass owners, which do you like more? PS Plus Extra/Premium and owners and Xbox Gamepass owners, which do you like more?

[tired hare]

Na they played on the nes

[stray pivot]

Maybe if they upgraded their technology in the devices

[tired hare]

Sombody please explain why the battery says it last 10 years but on my controller it last like 3 months

[fiery python]

Don't be spammy.

[night rapids]

tbf, they don't come out as frequently as smaller indies...so...accurate?

[quasi echo]

its nintendo. they too busy suing SML

[stray pivot]

It was such a bad move to not make the switch oled have better specs than the last one

[tired hare]

At the current time no later ya probably steam deck specs

[fiery python]

Is that really a serious question?

[tired hare]

why do xbox controllers die so fast 😠

[inner arrow]

He mentioned like AAA come out every few months.

[rich nexus]

Don’t be boomery

[granite estuary]

you recharge them

[tired hare]

Yes

[gray latch]

[quasi echo]

and ur gonna get mimed

[stray pivot]

Have you seen what they are doing now? They sued a guy because his name was Mario and he had overalls and a mustache.

[tired hare]

how can u recharge them

[granite estuary]

recharge them

[fiery python]

10 years is the average lifetime of the battery itself before it needs to be replaced, not how long you can use it without charging.

[halcyon stratus]

i know the quesiton isn't "how can you recharge a recharable battery" lmao

[tired hare]

never knew that

[rich nexus]

Do u know that Sony has more sales than Microsoft?

[fiery python]

So will you if you continue to chime in every time someone is acting up, because I've told you on at least two occasions to keep out of it.

[tired hare]

how do you recharge Duracell batties

[limber carbon]

Are you absolutely sure as I now have my doubts? 😅

[inner arrow]

Ryan said otherwise in this court

[halcyon stratus]

Who doesn't?

[tired hare]

batteries *

[gray latch]

all of Microsoft?

including Windows?

[tired hare]

how do I recharge battery’s

[halcyon stratus]

i was tricked lol

[rich nexus]

No, out of consoles

[granite estuary]

unless they're specifically rechargable batteries, you don't

[inner arrow]

The judge is now cross examining the analyst

[long maple]

she doing a good job

[granite estuary]

use like hiquick or smth

[inner arrow]

She trying to get anything out of him

[limber carbon]

Wish I could be on the zoom call

[gray latch]

general chat has that clown-car-about-to-careen-off-the-overpass vibe atm

[brave wasp]

So does the hearing

[limber carbon]

So, should I start a new topic?

I am not sure this person is really good with this analysis

Damn... Judge is going in with good questions

[long maple]

yeah she knows from that other lawsuit

[stray pivot]

I hope we get a new design for the Xbox controller soon.

Like a screen where the Xbox button is

[halcyon stratus]

We did just like a couple days ago

[inner arrow]

Judge is going in hard now lol

[stray pivot]

Huh?

[winter forum]

Still talking FTC?

[halcyon stratus]

yesterday: https://kotaku.com/barbie-movie-xbox-controllers-forza-horizon-5-pink-car-1850576950

[long maple]

yeah its not finished yet, Thursday is closing arguments

[halcyon stratus]

oh dang nvm, another case of 'the controllers were made but are not actually available for purchase'... i hate this trend!

[stray pivot]

What's the bottom part?

[inner arrow]

A judge outsmarting a harvard professor. Hate to see it but happening rn lol

[tired hare]

Judge is a pc gamer

[halcyon stratus]

judges should..... also be smart?

[upper meteor]

This?

[winter forum]

Catch everyone in the morning then, it's like discussing a game of chess but no one knows the rules and at this point, I'll just take the highlights

[halcyon stratus]

So I guess the most recent new controller (that can actually be purchaseD) was 2 weeks ago....
https://www.xbox.com/en-US/accessories/controllers/starfield-limited-edition

[stray pivot]

No the bottom part of the controller

[inner arrow]

Right. But judge probably isn't a gamer. The analyst seems to be one.

[limber carbon]

Huh. Hot Wheels Unleashed coming to Xbox One?

[obsidian kayak]

I wonder how come every time I come back to this server it puts me in the #welcome channel lol

[upper meteor]

Oh

[stray pivot]

No like a re vamp like how PlayStation did it with the ps5

Judge: Xbox S has price similar to Nintendo Switch?

"It seems to me the obvious inference is that would then compete with the Switch?"

Yeah they never change design

[gray latch]

why fix what aint broke

[tired hare]

I graduated 8th grade today w

[obsidian kayak]

Would be cool to get some haptic stuff

[tired hare]

also bought cod mw2

[inner arrow]

Also this whole dudes argument is "Xbox market share goes up".... And that shouldn't be the only thing right?

[obsidian kayak]

Or a NFC touch point on the Xbox controller to take card for games you buy

[stray pivot]

Slapping a screen on one would be cool

Like on the gen 3 elite controller would be cool

[inner arrow]

According to this Analyst... we have several markets that don't compete with each other :
PlayStation 5 Vs. Series X | Series S | Switch | Mobile | PC | Cloud

[stray pivot]

I wasn't talking about that

I was just talking about a redesign

[inner arrow]

Nah not you. I meant the FTC vs Microsoft hearing. Sorry

[limber carbon]

Doom isn't chatting with you as well.

[stray pivot]

Ahhh ok.

[stray pivot]

Why the passive aggression? I acknowledged mistake. I apologize.

[long maple]

Atomic Heart update is out.. 23GB also includes New Game+ Mode

[stray pivot]

Atomic heart was honestly kinda mid but the actual definition of it. I feel like not giving us down time in the open world was kinda weird.

[limber carbon]

Nice Paul. Are there any achievements tied to it?

[long maple]

no idea

[inner arrow]

This analyst just earlier said "COD is not the only important game its also about Diablo, Tony Hawk etc"
And suddenly now he goes "COD is a unicorn. It's special"

[hollow hawk]

I should give Atomic Heart another go, it felt really clunky for me to play the first time though, also didn't look all too great with a lot of visual artifacts everywhere

[inner arrow]

Judge clearly fed up with him already.
Said "The survey you didn't read" to the analyst

[limber carbon]

Allright. Thanks. The game looks fun, but I don't think I will play it, unless we can change the view.

[broken tusk]

Hmm, nfs carbon or the saboteur to get?

[inner arrow]

This analyst has no idea that he is getting roasted by the judge

[long maple]

get both?

[halcyon stratus]

i didn't get very far in it before i ran out of time.... but i don't remember any sizeable amount of visual artficats in AH on a series x

[broken tusk]

I'm pretty sure nfs carbon is also good on og xbox?

If none of my retro stores have it available for 360 or ps3?

[warped pendant]

it's available on both

[hollow hawk]

Might be a Series S optimization issue, what I do remember is things like ghosting on windows with PBR maps, particles not looking very sharp, light coming through Polymer was really pixel-y, everything in general looking like it was in a Blender pre-render, it was all generally just kinda bleh

[warped pendant]

but you'll need the hardware to play it

[broken tusk]

I got og xbox

[inner arrow]

Damn... Judge really getting into it again hahaha

[hollow hawk]

Won't hurt if it doesn't work, and if it does you have CS:GO for Xbox

[warped pendant]

if you want to play it

if it's on xbox one or series x all it needs is the entitlement data

[inner arrow]

FTC Lawyer has to apologize to the judge because of the analyst...

[warped pendant]

I'm sorry...what?

[inner arrow]

Yeah... Analyst makes no sense. Gives vague answers. Never a clear answer unless it's positive for Sony.

Earlier he basically said "FF16 exclusivity is pro competition" but "COD exclusivity is anti competition"

[gray latch]

[tacit robin]

i think he was apology for himself not the analyst. Ie sorry your honour i just want to go back

[open flume]

its like witnessing history unfold 1st person and then reading a history book written by the victors

[inner arrow]

Nah he apologized for going further with the analyst. Cause there are still some ground to cover.

[tacit robin]

the judge was roasting the analyst though with defining the cloud market and if its the same

[quasi echo]

am i crazy for having thoughts in the back of my mind that sony bribed the FTC in someway?

[inner arrow]

The judge roasted him multiple times.
Calling him esteemed and then chuckling. "Oh the survey you didn't read?" as well... It's a bit of a mess

[rich nexus]

Any

[open flume]

its the FTC so there is a non-zero chance that this was lobbied by bodies paid for by sony

[halcyon stratus]

that's actually.... not super great

[quasi hatch]

Esteemed?

[inner arrow]

I mean... they wasted more than an hour on questions by the judge and microsoft lawyer with answers like "I don't understand"

[halcyon stratus]

no one believes that judges are totally impartial and get no 'feeling' for the person talking but.... at the level of judge required to make a multi million dollar ruling, they need to at least pretend to be chill

[open flume]

i feel like we've been getting a very colorized version of what's actually happening here in this chat

cuz ive been combing through transcripts and the quotes dont match up at all

but its been so

[inner arrow]

The judge is chill. But it's clear she isn't really nice anymore since a full hour of her life was wasted trying to fish for answers that the FTC lawyer is now getting with a simply question immediately

[open flume]

shes paid to be there regardless of what case shes hearing

[halcyon stratus]

i've been trawling twitter today and there are different very diffent opinions being posted everywhere.
best bet is to just not believe anyone who uses a meme to summarize a whole trial lmao

[tacit robin]

that you gov survey that the analyst was referring too was a mess they ripped it apart and at the end he didn't know where he was.

[long maple]

we still got more to go aswell with other people hoping that dont last long

[open flume]

but this is what you get when you get gamers who dont understand concepts like compatibility and fps, starting to follow a legal case where lawyers spend 20+ years to get to that point.

[vale prism]

Why my games doesn't work?

[halcyon stratus]

one thing that is facts though is that the global economic consensus is not favorible to sony after he started talking

thats the professional term, too

swoopy

[halcyon stratus]

bold of you to assume that i didn't have trades that auto-executed when it went below 90 😉

[rich nexus]

Microsoft is more expensive cause it owns more, Sony is just tv brand and related to that. Microsoft owns windows, and much more.

[halcyon stratus]

yes. i'm basically a quant. you can trust me bro.

[potent drum]

That Will make the consoles more expensive i think

things don't need to own more to be more expensive inherently.

till thurday i think? maybe friday

[long maple]

yeah Thursday

[tacit robin]

but at this rate they may need friday lol

[final cove]

I meant today's hearing

[long maple]

Friday people have to get all their info together and what they are submitting to the judge so she can sort things out on her side.

[inner arrow]

Wasn't it that COD was on Nvidia Now despite Activision not allowing it?

[tacit robin]

yeah they go till court closes around 3 4 ish local time

[final cove]

Ah okay

[long maple]

9min video with Nvidia and some other things afterwards.

[inner arrow]

I remember Nvidia Now had a lot of problems with licensing at the beginning because Nvidia of course acting like "Oh we didn't know"

[final cove]

This all could've been avoided

[graceful escarp]

Someone explain how I just order an Xbox series s of GameStop and they cancel my order and when I ask for a refund they don't respond?

wait... dumb question.... are they in LA or NY? I assume LA since MIcrosoft is headquartered on the west coast, but who knows with national stuff

[long maple]

oh yeah Bethesda is being talked about for Nvidia

California correct

[halcyon stratus]

sounds like you should contact gamestop

It kinda is

[halcyon stratus]

well they can't steal your money lol

These are the new license holders and the trailer is a "proof of concept". So they might be able to make it into a show or movie

Interesting numbers here already. Also she said she consulted some informations from Metacritic which is also interesting.
ATVI has 7.4% share of console gaming revenue.
Xbox Game Studios (including Bethesda) has 4.9% share.
Sony is one step higher than Activision with 7.5% share.

Apparently because they couldn't fulfill my same day delivery request. 3 days later lol

[tacit robin]

Nintendo is not a competitor 😅

[inner arrow]

If Nintendo was included in the market which was multiple times mentioned today that they are actually a competitor then it's a bit oof.

[tacit robin]

they are just not in the same way

phil explained that

[inner arrow]

Oof... Telemetry data from Sony and Xbox and Activision... This will definitely break the case for the FTC Analyst

[long maple]

yeah Mr Lee apparently had the same

[inner arrow]

But didn't even mention it

[tacit robin]

ah man deliveroo the THRID driver as refused the delivery

[inner arrow]

Or if he did then I probably zoned out

[dreamy nest]

expected to see Ubisoft higher than that, but they've be struggling for a bit

[vocal gorge]

sounds to me like there is a bunch of bias going on

[halcyon stratus]

how is it an optio nfor the dleivery company to refuse to actually dfelivery a package?

[inner arrow]

I mean... The FTC lawyer literally wanted Spencer to promise under oath to bring every single activision IP to PS5 and PS + Cloud

[desert sonnet]

What a weird question to ask

[inner arrow]

Nothing else... Just PS. No Switch, No Nvidia, No other cloud service or platform. ONLY PS5 and Cloud

[desert sonnet]

Working for Sony rather than the consumer.. it's so gross

[inner arrow]

Spencer thankfully did no such thing cause the judge cut him off. And Spencer dismantled the situation at least in terms of the lawyer asking about WOW

[gray latch]

respect their wishes pls

[halcyon stratus]

you can reply without ping

Or is that just the “risk”

Ping means mentioning them…and I will never talk to that person again. Don’t worry about that lol

[halcyon stratus]

icon/name of hte person still shows up when you reploy without the sound, so it isn't like it gets lost forever

ooookay

[halcyon stratus]

okay, i mean,m like... we wanted to talk about diablo?

[gray latch]

I even did a smiley

[lucid pewter]

I just had some questions about the game cuz the Diablo server just clowning me for asking basic questions so I thought I would try here

[gray latch]

please show me where someone clowned you

[halcyon stratus]

my dude I pointed you exactly to where the active diablo players are hanging out but... okay I guess

[gray latch]

I must have missed it

[lucid pewter]

But I usually just read when coming ti this server and this is the reason why. Hope you all have a great week. Looking forward to some games coming out. If you do want to help me out with Diablo, just ping me or send me a message.

[gray latch]

smh

[halcyon stratus]

or post in the diablo thread

[lucid pewter]

Thanks again for showing me the reply option. Didn’t know that.

Where is the Diablo thread? Don’t even know how to find it

[vocal gorge]

#1086358105278918656

[lucid pewter]

Can’t find it on the channel list

[soft lake]

I gotta say it is kinda annoying that with the Halo Master Chief collection I apparently can’t choose what to install before I install it… I have to clear over 100 gigs to install it first, and then uninstall what I don’t need from within the game.

[gray latch]

yeah it's a sub thread or whatever those are called

[tired hare]

Yo

[lucid pewter]

Oh ok…man you guys are great. Really appreciate the help. I know I am a literal idiot and stupid when it comes to this type of stuff

[halcyon stratus]

yea, it is a bit strange, but i can imagine a few technical reasons that it had to be done that way... since each indivdual game isn't like a seperate 'DLC'...

[lucid pewter]

Literally about as dumb as you can get with this stuff so I do appreciate it. Hope you all have a great week

[gray latch]

you too

[tired hare]

I recommend playing Gta v online on next Gen consoles

[granite verge]

You should be able to on Steam or on Xbox. I think it's just the Windows Store version you have to fully download because it doesn't have support for the "ready to start" feature Xbox does

[soft lake]

Yeah… just a pain in the lemons, I mean I could just play it on cloud I guess but I don’t wanna… so

[lucid pewter]

I have it on PC. Tried asking for help but everyone I ask has been playing for so long they don’t want to help a beginner

[halcyon stratus]

I vageuly remember that Xbox required a full install before you could go in and disable parts
but it has been years

[soft lake]

Nah but I’d still need to clear enough space to start the install before going in to remove the parts I don’t wanna play right now

[sour wing]

Is there an Xbox insider discord?

[soft lake]

Sometimes I wish I had a Series X instead of the S

[inner arrow]

Well the Hearing is over. Microsoft economics witness did an amazing job

[lucid pewter]

I joined the GTA discord server and man, I was shocked at how they treat new players who have beginner questions. I tried doing the GTA Roleplay thing which was interesting and fun

[tired hare]

I'm on xbox and pc also I could help you
I keep making new characters cause it gets so boring after u get everything in game.
If ure lvl 1 I'll start new character all well go through the journey together

[long maple]

yeah she was really good, and tomorrow is Kotick in the morning, Satya Nadella says 1pm but thats why Judge would of been afternoon cause she is moderating something tomorrow, and apparently might be on late

[tired hare]

Fivem is more fun than g
Gtao
Gtao is grindy anyway

[inner arrow]

Yeah. Well we will see how it goes. But damn today was a bit of a drag since FTC Analyst was... just... oof

[long maple]

yeah just a bit, I need to chill now lol

[inner arrow]

The MS Economist comes up tomorrow again. After Bobby

[tired hare]

The FTC lost to Elon musk
They'll lose to Xbox

[lucid pewter]

Asked some questions in the Diablo thread if anyone wants to help

If not, totally cool.

[cinder veldt]

GTA O is in an unfortunate state

[zenith ivy]

All the progress on all of the games I have installed just disappeared

others, not otters

I mean I guess it could happen to otters too

[cinder veldt]

Back on watch dogs 2 for me, if I get matched against this person I got matched against so many times earlier today idk what I will say

[hollow hawk]

If let's say I buy fifa2023 on my pc (from Microsoft Store) will I be able to play the online stuff without Xbox gold/gamepass?

[hollow hawk]

https://tenor.com/view/kiss-otter-otter-love-gif-25839171

[gray latch]

PC doesn't require gold iirc

[hollow hawk]

I still can't embed things but you get the point

[cunning prism]

[cinder veldt]

Correct

[tired hare]

iirc? What's that

[gray latch]

"if I recall correctly"

[tired hare]

Ohh okay thanks

[merry palm]

[tired hare]

[desert sonnet]

[true plinth]

Once this shift is over I'm gonna try and do 5 dungeons in Warcraft for some loot. And then work more on my house in secondlife trying to texture is not easy.

[true plinth]

I mean honestly I'm such a dork that if that was in my package ild probably frame.it lol

[rose sail]

Hi, has anyone played Erica or Inside? Would anyone recommend them and are they worth the play?

[gray latch]

Inside was good

[true plinth]

I can't wait for payday gonna get baulders gate dark alliance 2 .

[frosty sluice]

Paving simulator idk

Be lighting making a new road

[desert sonnet]

[small mantle]

I want another 12minute style game, I really enjoyed the puzzle in that game.

[versed swan]

finally the $25 dabloons paid off (don't worry, the black blocks at the bottom are intended)

[tacit robin]

diablo does have multiplayer it as coop and is a MMO

[versed swan]

oh finally ubisoft learned that turning on subtitles by default is not a bad idea

[lunar tartan]

Thermal fish are the most annoying item in Fortnite right now

[foggy skiff]

diablo is an mmo?

[tired hare]

What why

[tacit robin]

its a always online open world with other players so in that hence yes

[foggy skiff]

lol what?

[lunar tartan]

It’s a legendary item that’s in like most coolers and it’s not helpful imo

[tacit robin]

? do you have an issue with how a defined the game coffee?>

[true plinth]

Uhh I wouldn't say it's an MMO.

Lest not the scale of other blizzard mmo products.

[tacit robin]

as i said its open world multiplayer in a shared dynamic world that too me as MMO elements. Its also a ARPG and also a adventure game

[vast ermine]

Is discord down for anyone else

[blissful verge]

UwU @true plinth

[tacit robin]

yeah

[gray latch]

[merry palm]

😅

Things like this happen. But it's sure been a while since it took xbox and me with it lol

[vast ermine]

After I sent the message the server went down

[gray latch]

[night rapids]

I thought I got banned for a minute there. Phew

[queen lotus]

[merry palm]

[merry palm]

[cinder veldt]

The fact that was our first thought shows how great we are

[glacial kraken]

Did this server have an outage I had a message saying that

[cinder veldt]

It’s more of a discord thing

[limpid flicker]

I came back to my Discord and all the roles had lost their colours. Weird. I needed to click someone to bring their colours back

[merry palm]

Discord is having a moment

[desert sonnet]

Colors are returning

[cinder veldt]

That’s not normal discord behaviour for you?😛

[limpid flicker]

Not that I remember.

[desert sonnet]

https://tenor.com/view/powerpuff-girls-color-singing-gif-3533662

[cinder veldt]

Even tho this is outage, jokes aside role colours disappear from time to time for me

[merry palm]

Lol.oh it happens . But not as often as it used to

[stoic blaze]

discord is down at least once every week

[limpid flicker]

I have a pretty weak memory.

[merry palm]

Discord hasn't fully crashed in ages

Ah the nostalgia

[cinder veldt]

Just a few weeks tho

[merry palm]

Not all the way👁️

[long maple]

ah everyones colours are back.

[desert sonnet]

I don't remember it crashing a few weeks ago

[cinder veldt]

Remember when heinz message was resent over the course of many hours

[merry palm]

A server here and there yes. Full crash no

That's not a crash. That's lag

[stoic blaze]

ye it didnt fully crash in a while

[merry palm]

A crash is like the server outage but the whole site.

[long maple]

yeah lagging that hasnt happened in awhile either

[cinder veldt]

Oh like that, yeah full crash long ago, I got it mixed up

[merry palm]

That's been ages and ages

[desert sonnet]

Anyways. Speaking of crash. I can't wait to crash on my bed when I get home

[merry palm]

Mood

With a drink and my book

[cinder veldt]

Hopefully a full crash isn’t happening in a while

[long maple]

yeah I am gonna go bed soon. busy day tomorrow sitting in waiting for Gas man to arrive between 8-1pm

[lunar tartan]

I am tired but not lol

[small mantle]

That episode creeped me out with that clown as a kid, but I still enjoyed it

[tired hare]

Hi

[tardy rune]

Is it just me but when I don’t have headphones in my discord is extremely loud and I cant hear my steam game? I’ve adjusted everything and still can’t hear my game.

[true plinth]

[true plinth]

Gonna add that to my shopping list with the breakfast cup noodles.

[true plinth]

[merry palm]

Everytime I type I gotta think twice

[lunar tartan]

@cinder veldt I need a triggerfish pride profile picture 😅

[merry palm]

Moat of the rules are like.. be nice. Don't be a jerk. Listen to the mods

It's pretty easy lol

[cinder veldt]

Do I look like someone who does that /j

[limpid flicker]

I think it's gonna be someone's favourite, and that's cool. I don't care about it, but that's fine. 🙂

[cinder veldt]

Jokes aside, I can get one, and by pride you mean the regular pride flag?

[glad light]

Its just too far to not know somebody, like saying specific age or names

[lunar tartan]

This same one if possible 👀

[gray latch]

no pii is common sense

[desert sonnet]

Heheh pii

[gray latch]

lol

[merry palm]

Sharing personal info is not smart online.

[trail harness]

Can't wait for P5T even if just for how cute the art style is

[true plinth]

I wish their were smaller cars on the market. Other than Miata

[merry palm]

Too easy to track people down.

[glad light]

Not personal, its just a identification

[true plinth]

I get enough of this at work lol.

[lunar tartan]

People can be super weird and creepy nowadays too

[glad light]

True

[quasi echo]

wish i could say that was a lie.

[cinder veldt]

Non binary right?

[limpid flicker]

Don't I know it. 😓
You don't always realise what you're 'giving away'.

[tacit robin]

a Miata isnt that small - BMW mini

[merry palm]

I think you underestimate how simple it is to track people using what they say online lol

[silent sable]

I need HRT so badly. I’m starting to feel like I’ll never escape this body and it’s making me freak out inside. Also I’ve been crying a bit

[trail harness]

People have always been weird and creepy but with modern tech they have more ways of doing so

[merry palm]

Reasons I don't do selfies. Too easy to find where I am

[glad light]

What if somebody is living in a hotel and the stalker don't know what room they are at 🤨

[true plinth]

I know where you are your on the internet!/j

[merry palm]

I live on the internet. It's true haha

[true plinth]

My b Tess missed the no ping button.

How long gall have been playing xbox for

[trail harness]

[true plinth]

Samesies sadly I'm sweating up a storm in this heat and my prostetics thumb slipped.

[cinder veldt]

2013

[glad light]

I started 10 year ago

[true plinth]

Uhh when did halo 2 come out? That was my first Xbox game.

[limpid flicker]

I think I got my first XBOX (the OG) in 2003 or 4.

[trail harness]

I lost my original Xbox account a long time ago though

[molten briar]

[merry palm]

It's been not too hot here. Only bout 80

[glad light]

I remember playing xbox 360 the jailbreak version

[merry palm]

You got to see my ostrich

[limpid flicker]

Outside your house, while visiting you?

[true plinth]

It was 82 inside with my ceiling fan on last night.

[glad light]

[merry palm]

[molten briar]

[true plinth]

So I'm guessing tes and eris go to the same boba shop?

[glad light]

My Narborough has a capybara

[merry palm]

We don't live quite that close. But close enough for the occasional visit

[tacit robin]

oh no its 00.35 my rewards reset 14 days 😆 - i no good at this

[limpid flicker]

There's a surprising concentration of server members across a couple of states in the US, I have observed.

[merry palm]

I need a taller car so I can take my bear about

[limpid flicker]

Partly because... well, Microsoft is there.
