It doesn't have to make sense.
Microsoft and their ilk are the MAGAs/Qanon of gaming.
The fact that these people mouth off freely without grasping this basic concept will never not be funny.
Sony is the only one putting in work to push this industry forward but hey "jUsT mAkE a CoD kIlLeR" no big deal.
There has been a competition of who can put the better games on their platform, Microsoft lost. Now they're just trying to flip the boardgame and pieces.
Microsoft has been competing all this time.
This idea that Microsoft is some small indie developer going up against giants is stupid, you see that right?
Is Microsoft a small player?
Sorry but that's a really silly take. Do you work in the industry?
Game companies have been working with remote workers for as long as there has been a gaming industry. Ever heard of outsourcing?
Hardly any succesful game was ever made without it.
By that exact same logic we can also say that Microsofts fumbling gaming division is proof that they have no business being in the gaming industry.
Well then this Rocket League AI is progress too. AI should take over all competitive gaming so that everyone can be good at it.
So? Now everyone can be a pro at Rocket League, instead of it being gatekept by a few elite.
At least that's what I'm told when it comes to AI generated art.
Oh what, it's different now?
Nothing but bad faith from MS
It doesn't have creativity, nothing original other than what humans feed it.
But I thought that if you make Angrboda black then the game will be a wokist nightmare.
Haha, they thought this was gonna go away.
I used to work at an Activision Blizzard studio and the one doing the firing is a mediocre white guy who has two minorities running 24/7 damage control on his incredible incompetence while getting 0 credit for it.
So people here can take that "cOmPaNiEs OnLy HiRe ThE bEsT fOr ThE jOb" nonsense and stuff it.
It's not anecdotal either, this happens daily at their studios.
But don't take my word for it. Ask yourself &quo...
Dumbest thing I've read all week.
At the end of the day Kratos also never had a full beard before, why now all of a sudden?
I really don't know why I work in the gaming industry today, it's basically just making stuff for pathetic, sorry losers.
Black mermaids? In Old Denmark??
That's wild... -_-
This argument again. The reason it seems to "only ever go one way" is because the straight white male has already always been represented in everything throughout history.
It's time for something new now.
Haven't you heard? There's a black female new character in the latest Bond film and the sweaty neckbeards are crying about it.
This is not about firing some low level Activision/Blizzard employees. The corruption starts at the top level. High level managers are the scum perpetuating this stuff.
You need to cut out all of the cancer but they are so entrenched and intertwined within the organisation that to do away with them will spell disaster.
Bobby Kotick is a scumbag, who is gonna fire him?
22 shitcans
PS1? This is what it looks like on my Pro.
Corny as Hell.
