In the same way that modern movies don’t have CGI I assume?
No wonder they can’t put out nothing but turds, even while bringing other people’s games they have the reverse midas touch where an MMO that is a chart topper in Korea (Lost Ark), ahead of both WoW and XIV, is just chugging along at the back here.
Well, then there shouldn’t be any hesitation about signing up for the better protections for the actors then.
Aha, so voice acting and mocap don’t count, got it!
And voice work is so fast, it can’t be much.
So the guy in charge of Amazon’s video games doesn’t understand video games. Sounds about right. I was already skeptical of what they could pull off after the New World fiasco. I don’t think we’ll be seeing anything other than the video game version of Amazon’s stolen and enshitified products
Mind filling me in on the fiasco? I’m pretty sure I played the game somewhat early on and didn’t hear anything
When people first got to play it, it was burning out graphics cards
Complete lie. The game did not burn gpu’s. That was caused from a GPU manufacturer(EVGA) doing a shit solder job on a batch of gpu’s.
It’s also the reason they don’t make graphics cards anymore as well.
Cmon man. You call it a complete lie and then proceed to lie through your teeth?
It affected EVGA GPUs during the beta, EVGA accepted the responsibility and offered to replace the cards. However after the beta the game also bricked Gigabyte and laptop (which I think came straight from Nvidia) GPUs, so the issue wasn’t exclusive to EVGA.
As for EVGA no longer making cards. Their cards were highly regarded because they made quality cards. The reason they stopped making cards wasn’t because they did a shitty job, the reason was Nvidia. The official reasoning EVGA gave was that Nvidia made it difficult to maintain consistent profit margins, but the rumors are that EVGA saw the 40 Series specs along with the demands Nvidia had for the manufacturers and didn’t want anything to do with that shit. And rightfully so how poorly the 40 series was received.
That isn’t the reason they stopped, they were tired of NVidia’s BS. Nvidia has been slowly trying to phase out 3rd party cards for a while. Since the 20 series they’ve been consistently raising the cost of the GPU that the manufacturer pays compared to the MSRP (i.e. OEMs make basically nothing if they dont upcharge over MSRP), giving OEMs way less time to properly design/test their cooling solutions before launch, and in a few cases only giving them worse binned cards.
Holy shit, I’m glad I avoided that. Thank you for the info
The game was very bugged and did plenty of rollbacks too, not a thing MMO players enjoy having their progress erased, also plenty of exploits on a PvP focused endgame like a guild could just report every player on the other side and they would be auto-kicked from the game. Also the game was very light on content precisely because they pivoted from hardcore PvP to a more PvE friendly thing in the middle of development, pleasing almost no one from either side.
That’s pretty sad. Thanks for filling me in
