This is not just voice acting. The actress in the article was talking about motion capture. Like they were literally going to act out the scene and digitize it into the game and just expected that she would go along with it on no advance warning.

In the early 2000s, it was WWII.

A decade ago it was zombies.

Now it seems to be 40k that's determined to drown us. Hey, having some 40k games is fun, but I'm starting to get really, really sick of it.

It's been going on for quite a while. My personal theory is after denying use of their properties to Blizzard and seeing how much money they made on "not quite Warhammer" properties, Games Workshop determined to never miss another chance at that goldmine and sold their license to literally anyone who asked.

EA execs earned $60 million in 2024 despite because of layoffs and office closures.

There that seems more accurate

While Sins of a Solar Empire 2 is technically out of early access, it's far from feature complete

The hell does that mean? They're charging full price but it's not a full game yet?

What possible value could the Infogrames name have? Will anyone old enough to remember it actually have a positive association?

I agree Manor Lords looks like it's still a long way from finished. But what's there right now looks great

I felt the quake here in Eastern CT. About 10 seconds of rumbling. Just long enough to know what it was, not long enough to really matter.

But if you had paid more than you should have because of a pricing error you likely would never have known.

Lack of growth shouldnt be a reason to fire people. If you aren't losing money, your business is doing what it should.

One of the positive reviews with over 5 hours played:

"I don't understand why there are so many negative reviews. Yes, graphics are not at the highest level, and there are some micro-transactions (but everything you can buy in an online shop can be freely acquired within the game). Yes, there are not so many significant changes to the original DD. But this game is still excellent: nice fights, an exciting story, many enemies, and a perfect character creator. With RTX3070 and i7-10800H (laptop), I have continuous 45-60 fps on ultra settings. I didn't encounter any bugs or visual glitches so far. 8/10. Thank you, Capcom!"

When the ratings are filtered to show reviews over 5 hours played, the score goes from a mostly negative 39% to a mostly positive 72%. That's a considerable increase.

Of course people who have played more are going to give better reviews. If I don't like a game, I'm not going to get to that 5 hour threshold.

I suspect it has more to do with Hasbro than WOTC. They saw "we made $90M for letting someone else do the work. Let's meddle and see if we can increase the license fee."

Not sure how they can say the price changes are "permanent." What's to stop EA from jacking the price back up if they feel like it?

Endgame for me is play another game. That's why they call it the "end."

Grinding for gear is a complete turnoff to me. What's the point of putting all that crap into the game if I can play through it a dozen times and never see most of it?
