I bet it will come with a free copy of Denuvo. Will be an incredible deal: 2 softwares for the price of 1 software. Can’t beat that.
Before people get carried away with the weird narrative that Pilestedt was forced out in some sort of corporate coup, read the article. He stepped down by his own decision into his new role as Chief Creative Officer. He handpicked the new CEO. Also some relevant quotes from him:
“I’ve been thinking about the journey ahead for Arrowhead, the future games we’re going to be making, and running the organisation beyond the 120 or so developers we have currently,” he tells us. “I realised that running an organisation of over 100 people to however large it is going to get… it means I will [have to choose] between deepening my love for game creation, or the business track."
“Over the last year going to launch of Helldivers 2, I’ve been pulled more towards the business side of things, and not able to focus as much on the creative side. That made me realise I needed to make some decisions, both for the success of the business but also myself."
So he’s focusing on the game rather than the business aspect.
Honestly I am OK with this. He’s repeatedly demonstrated that he seems to be the only dude at AH who isn’t a hostile asshole to players and more importantly he recently admitted that balance for the game has not been good. AH has spent the last few months squeezing out a lot of the players’ goodwill from the game, but this gives me hope that maybe they can course correct from here on out.
Good post, good explanation, sorry you got downvoted by people who can’t read
Caveat about Ender’s Game and Orson Scott Card: dude is a fucko whackjob irl, just pirate it lol
I’m making an announcement to everyone:
I’m canceling my plans for today, codenamed Kestrel. You will never know what they were.
I bought this game in early access like 10 YEARS AGO lol. Feels like it has been in my library forever now.
Not to rain on Rimworld’s parade, but where is the next Rimworld successor? We had Dwarf Fortress > Rimworld > ???
There is an entire generation growing up that only understands “Discord” as “chat app” instead of as the vocab word.
They HAD a cool PVE mode that they put a ton of effort in to creating. They released a bunch of fun minigames as a promotion for all their Star Guardian stuff. Then after a few weeks, it went away and never came back.
Damn, now we don’t know what we don’t know, because the guy deleted another comment lol.
The OP’s comment (which has now been deleted) was “If you read some of the comments I’ve deleted, you would know.”
Christian nationalism is a slept mindvirus
If I actually played any EA games, I’d probably be upset
Was it because of a player? Family?
Sorta both. My parents aren’t even hockey people, they never played, they don’t skate, but for whatever reason they have always loved the Flyers. Combine that with Lindros being the effing man for about 6 years in the 90s, caused me to become a Flyers fan since then.
Honestly sometimes I wonder why I even like my team lol. They haven’t been good for about 14 years and we are in for at least another few tough years before Briere can clean out the Chuck Fletcher stink from Philly.
I am far from Philly and have not been there in a long, long time, so I can’t give you firsthand info what conditions are like. But the Flyers are also years removed from being a packed house sellout crowd. Also, one of the last home games before Chuck Fletcher got fired last year, the WFC was full of Rangers fans. They turned it into their barn for that game and beat us lol. You might go there and meet more Rangers fans than Flyers fans.
Yes, it would be great if some production committee took a swing on making a traditional sports shounen. As long as it isn’t some bottom budget afterthought it could be legitimately good.
As for my team, I’m a Flyers fan. How about yourself?
Lol I remember that too. Hello, fellow anime/hockey fan.

I remember this play and the entire series very well. It was the most exciting playoff series in the last decade+. However, it was Crosby knocking away Voracek’s glove.

No part of that guy’s comment is valid. He’s not even the barest bit subtle about how badly he is distorting the facts.
Nobody is talking about any of these things: a gun that 1 tapped every enemy, infinite ammo, auto aiming, wanting every gun to become a 1 tap super weapon. It’s not even part of the discussion. All of these are imaginary things this person made up. Somehow people are just looking at it and nodding instead of calling out the bullshit.
Seems less like “protesting” and more like “fucking over other people in the game” to me, which sounds about right for the League of Legends player base.
