I was wondering what happened to the Discord IPO. Discord already went to shit, I don’t know what else an IPO could do to it? More restrictions?

No… RCS is a protocol (from GSMA) anyone can implement, Google just spearheaded it and developed Jibe to make it easy for operators to implement, but by doing this it means Google gained a lot of control of it and added their own features to such as end-to-end encryption.

Yeah, so in typical modern day fashion get ready to lose functionality.

They often trade UX for “pretty” these days and I find most apps and websites horrible to use in comparison to 10+ years ago. Like everything has to be in a context menu for some reason now.

But one thing it also demonstrated was peoples will for power and recognition, no matter how small. They enjoy being mods, it makes them feel above others, so there will always be someone willing to trade morals to take the position.

The game could also just not have a battle pass. How are people already so indoctrinated into their existence? No paid games should have extra monetisation in.

If I have to contact support to do any mundane change to an account, my email usually begins with ‘Delete my account’.

Oh man I can see me putting some hours into this on Steam Deck!

No, dismissing because of shitty monetisation is great. It could not be implemented in the first place.

Buying a game without reading reviews is like buying a game with these shitty monetisation schemes.

I refuse to buy co-op games that have the online requirement/live service bullshit. It’s only done to sell you battle passes and shit.

Yes MKBHD is the same. Just loads of shill content to keep brands happy.

They just throw out any random shit and people click and watch it. LTTs quality dropped years ago when they got too big. It’s about views now, not respectable content.

Ah got ya, yea read into that selling, certainly a weird situation.

So these are just re-releases of Simple Mobile Tools?

I loved knocking out Mayrina’s brothers, then going in telling her I just knocked them out, only for her to scream “THEY’RE DEAD?!” at me. Man the fucking hag questline was the most boring tedious shit in Act 1 for me.

Just another lesson to wait months after a games release before even considering it.

Its because the branching story was an illusion. You think you have the choice of what to do, with all the dialogue options, but ultimately the choice is the games and the closer you get to the end of the game the more apparent it becomes as it hastily funnels you to the finale.

No I am referring to it’s second early access release. They are getting on top of it now with these huge patches, so that’s good, but it’s just stuff that should have existed anyway and bugs that shouldn’t have existed, they could have cooked it for another year. But releasing it does allow a lot more eyes on things, plus it’s getting paid for the QA instead of paying for it, but keeping it marked as early access until it’s cleaned up would have been nice.
