    When you hire someone to act on your behalf, all of their actions are your fault. They are you.

    I’m not saying this shouldn’t be a huge warning sign not to hire this company to everyone else. I’m saying the only possible way to not be the bad guy would have been a statement “we terminated our arrangement immediately and will pay all of the costs of our mistake”.




  • I could get the “default” to facilitate setup, but as far as I’m concerned it’s seriously fucked not to have the first step of your script be replacing it with the user’s own choices. It’s really hard for me to trust the security as a whole of a project that does that by default, especially because it’s intended to be for inexperienced users and there was no indication during the setup process or other included information that that was the case.



  • lol the problem with Destiny is they turned it into a treadmill and stopped putting the work into character and level design.

    Elden Ring can easily take more than 100 hours on your first playthrough, and different builds significantly change your play style.

    BG3, similar deal. Subsequent playthroughs are probably going to be accelerated, but there are a bunch of different story choices you can make that feel different, the party members have their own story lines, there’s a special custom character called Dark Urge that’s intended for a later playthrough that has it’s own twist, and you can change the strategy of encounters a lot with different party constructions.

    Rimworld calls itself a story generator because you’re going to fail and have people die and whatever, but every game plays out different, there are a good couple scenarios, and there’s expansions and mods you can add on top of that for variety.

    Just the first couple that come to mind. I’m not near 1000 hours on any of them, but they all have a lot of content.
