    Inconvenience I think is a bit mild. I guess Heat flasks become triggered and you reroll all curse maps?

    Wouldn't continuing to play the game while not buying packs signal them the strongest? You could stop playing for a variety of valid reasons that have nothing to do with the game or GGG.

    If they want to retain a certain type of player with these changes, yes, I would agree. Overall amount of players retained, I'm not so sure these are geared towards that.

    With the feedback in this thread and reddit, I don't see how these changes are geared towards retention.

    So don't buy the supporter pack. Sounds like you agree with me.

    I'm not sure heavy defense helps that much on Sirus. The DIE and NONEXISTENCE beams and meteor are all binary. Rain of Stars pretty close to it. Long time between fights is definitely an issue. Not really sure I can recommend anything there. I still die on the fight. A deathless A8 Sirus...

    I know there's a ton of factors involved, so it's more than just microtransactions vs box cost. I guess if you enjoy the game as a service, I would prefer PoE's microtransaction model. They've had some serious fuckups lately and being owned by tencent has made it really hard to justify buying...

    More damage certainly helps since a shorter encounter means fewer chances to fuck up. But there is no DPS check to the Sirus fight. I'd suggest learning the fight on something like Ignite or Storm Brand, which lets you stay at range and focus on the mechanics while maintaining full dps.

    I'll play SSF if I could feel like I'm making meaningful progression and no content(i.e.: builds) are out of my reach in 3 months. That GGG can't make that happen is an indictment on them. Players want easier trade because that's the only way they can think to solve that equation. It is not...

    Reacting to ailments is going to be a bitch if that's what actually ends up happening. Which means everyone just slots in ailment immunity instead. The UI and combat speed do not allow for that level of decision making. This is why steel builds will never be meta. That said, I DO react to...

    Modern software sucks, and computing is garbage while hardware is blazing new frontiers.

    I'm not saying he's wrong, but he's painting a one-sided argument with rose-colored glasses. From what I gather, he's a college professor? If he wants his arguments to be more definitive, I think he should be less feels with the past. Also, he's turned off comments. I don't know the...

    What exactly is change management? To me it sounds like someone dedicated to reviewing and approving commits.

    Modern software sucks, and computing is garbage while hardware is blazing new frontiers.

    Good software development should include automated performance regression testing and profiling. I manage QA for static analysis tool and we routinely benchmark it against large codebases like Android. Deviations in time outside of 5% usually require investigation so that cause can at least be...

    I've never seen that side-by-side picture either. I bet part of it is your brain hearing his voice and literally drawing conclusions with the image. That said, they should have fucked with us and modeled him after Emilio Estevez.

    I guess I can see not knowing Yvonne Strahovski voiced and modeled Miranda Lawson. She's not THAT big of an actress. But I also remember the internet making a big deal about it. But I don't know how you hear Keith David's voice and not go "Is that Keith David?". I don't know how you hear...

    $200M was the budget for this turd. I wonder how many seasons of Expanse-quality TV that could have funded. I even just seasons 7-9 of the Expanse itself. Yes, I know the comparison I'm making is a bit too simplistic. I'm just continually dumfounded how there is too much stuff to watch and...

    "Ended up" implies they couldn't have known their risk would turn out horribly. When people recommend taking risks, it's assumed you don't forget basic writing tenets like avoiding character assassination and mary sues.

    Heh, reading this thread makes me anxious because it gives my imagination the juice it needs to start thinking of all they different ways my house is in need of repair or soon could be. The posters here are indeed quite helpful. Perhaps more of a commentary on myself then.

    Pessimistic but probably real translation: we couldn't keep Ultimatum's assets in the main game, add whatever assets are coming in 3.15, and maintain the laughable level of current performance. Their reasons for not going core, while valid, are painfully obvious within 5 minutes of playing. If...
