| With that, we're pretty much at the limit of what's humanly perceptible. Higher resolutions and refresh rates past this point are completely pointless, as they're improvements that exist beyond human perception. "Hey, our new monitor displays color clear into the infrared and ultraviolet! You can't actually see it, but it's there!" |

One free out of date game in exchange for spending money on our products that are 50% higher than every other competitors, sold mostly at stores that we bully the hell out of or online at our own store (you can buy them on other people's sites, but you aren't allowed to use a cart to buy them, or see pictures of them, or get them with a meaningful discount anywhere but our site.)
And then, when you buy them, we'll wait two years and release a new edition of the game that is specifically written to make all of the stuff you went through so much hassle (and money) to get obsolete so that you have to buy it all again to play in any recognized game.
And if you don't like it, tough shit. We want the 'elite' (IE - rich) players. Those of you who care about the prices and practices aren't our target audience anyway, dirty stinking peasants. |

The other difference was that people who wanted to play HL2 only needed to download an app. Nobody had to buy an extra $1,000 worth of specialized hardware on top of it, plus a PC capable of supporting that hardware.
Steam for HL2: Free
Index + hardware: $1,000-$2,000+ |

| It looks great, but it is pretty disheartening that after 12 years of waiting to see what happens next, they're telling their story in a format that excludes a huge swathe of their most loyal customers. I don't have VR, and can't afford VR. |

I'm not worried about Diablo.
Practically every other Blizzard game has microtransactions. WoW has them, Overwatch, even Starcraft. They haven't tried any EA/Bethesda stuff in the years they've been doing them (at least a decade on WoW.)
Psst - see Bethesda? It's called a 'reputation!' |

| I wonder if they'll ever merge libraries. I also wonder how Access is going to work. Will the Access library end up split between two different platforms? |

Checked out the FO1st site, too. Wasted opportunity. He says he wants to get through to Bethesda, and act as a 'mediator', then creates a site that is a profanity-laden insult fest.
That's not how you get through to your target audience and convince them of your argument. It's how you get them to stop reading after the first sentence. And it isn't the resume for someone you're going to want as a mediator. You pick a mediator who has shown that they can act from a neutral perspective, not someone who is openly, blatantly hostile. |

Private servers are a paid service. Also:
Our approach to these items at launch was to keep them purely cosmetic. But after looking at all the data, it became clear that to consistently deliver content that keeps Fallout 76 fresh and exciting for all, we needed to rethink our approach to the Atomic Shop.
Bethesda is starting to look like EA Junior.
"Customers are asking for this."
"Ok, see how we can find a way to charge them for it." |

Frogwares, I can get your games listed again. But there is something we'd like you to do though. Investigate Joe Biden.
The fact that the pink unicorn said this on camera made me laugh out loud, and I am not usually one for laughing at the news. Like, I think he has a medical condition or something, there is no way someone can be this mentally stupid to literally fuel the allegations by DOING THE EXACT SAME THING A 2ND TIME, ON CAMERA.
Thank you Americans, for giving a bored European some entertainment in the news.
Yeah, now we get to know what the people on FailArmy feel like.
Enjoy our shame and humiliation. |

That didn't clarify. It confirmed what people were pissed about. They already understood just fine.
we are working hard to make sure this is the best Call of Duty we’ve ever made and the best experience possible for fans.
If the fans on the PS4 get something more than the rest of them, then you aren't working to make it the best experience for the fans. Just for PS4 fans. The rest get something less. |

On mallards, the bright green/gray coloration is seasonal. They're colorful in the winter and spring, but molt and take on more subtle colors after breeding season.
There are other ways to tell them apart, assuming that they're pure mallard. First, males have yellow bills; females have orange/brown bills. Males also have a softer voice, while the females have a very harsh, loud quack. |

| FWIW, I run the thing with great performance on a mix of high and ultra settings at 1080. My system is an i5 4670k and 8 gigs of RAM (so horribly out of date) and and RTX 2060 (new and fast.) That suggests to me that this system is more dependent on video cards than anything, as most games choke on my CPU and RAM long before the video card can compensate. |

| Metacritic user scores are as useless a reference as they've ever been. If you look a little closer, almost all of the scores are either 9-10 or 0-1 with very little in between. That absolutely screams of review bombing, likely by the Epic haters who see this as a prime target to 'get back' at the boogeyman they invented. |
