There's a lot of things you could criticize Nintendo for, but I don't think their decision to not compete in the same technological space as xbox / playstation is one of them.

I might have to buy a new PC just to run a Switch game. I'm really just looking for an excuse to buy a new PC tho.

Anyone here running on an emulator? I don't think I'd mind playing on my switch but now I'm kinda curious.

Yep. They just need to yeet out a script that drops the respawn timer of the entire original EQ and Kunark mobs to 25% and see what happens.

Dropping the respawn time to 25% in a handful of zones and 50% in some other zones would be extremely positive and not that much work (Presumably...). I still like my "Monster Tide" idea though that's more ambitious and experimental. What's your favorite idea to handle Resource Contention you'd...

Their decisions are so grossly out of touch that it's impossible to predict whether they will do the rational thing and push back Oakwynd or ditch FTE for at least the original release (where it'd probably be most impactful,l lol) It'd be completely inline for them to release an absolute mess...

I agree, but I'd much rather lose to a bot because bot was running at 1ms on a PC with a 100ms less ping than I have when I'm spamming that ability at 200ms, vs the bot simply being able to attack untargetable and invisible mobs a second before I can.

Gotta be pretty dismal to push to fix this out when the playerbase hates the concept of it even with a perfect implementation. Just watching the video Jasper posted of mobs locking and being inaccessible to other players is personally revolting. Best thing the EQ devs can do for the long-term...

Which MMO?

Just got off the phone with Jen Change, they are just calling a mulligan and not doing a TLP this year.

Yep. https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/test-update-5-9-2023-patch-notes-and-discussions.290535/

As a non-writer I'd be kinda curious to read an experience of a writer trying to create a "well-written" chapter or screenplay for an episodeor scene based on ChatGPT. Like you said it's generic and boring. Are there prompts that you can give ChatGPT that excite the right kind of interesting...

Would love to see another game that tries to capture the essence of Dungeon Master + party the way NWN did. ChatGPT has kinda primed the pump for that type of game in a singleplayer format too.

@Chukzombi It broke at the end, lol. I regenerated it. It broke again. I think it runs out of gas.

I thought the exact same thing. That was one of the first progression fantasy book series I've ever read. I wish there was an audible narration of it so I could consume it again now that I've gone through dozens of other similar series decades later.

Asking for high-quality (which likely means high budget) and original TV content is a little unfair because it's so attractive to build on an established IP, especially in genres with strong IP like superhero or scifi. If a studio is willing to put up the $$$ for quality actors, special effects...

I wouldn't mind seeing them bring free-trade to live / Bristlebane for a single expansion. Especially if it came with reduced loot drops. Right now everything is loot pinata in the group game on live.

Update: May 3, 5:17 p.m. ET: In an emailed statement, Celestis announced that all 120 flight capsules included in this mission “are safely in the hands of launch personnel and will be returned to us awaiting our next flight as soon as UP and Spaceport America complete their investigation and any...

I'll note that nobody who thinks chatgpt can replace tv writers in 2023 has taken me up on my request to get chatgpt to write a script or screenplay.

I'm glad you're asking such a fun question. I know this prompt response won't satisfy you because you know that human-generated information was provided to chatgpt and midjourney during its training, but I hope you enjoy it anyway. chatgpt: Midjourney: /imagine a 60 foot creature with 4 legs...

Where did you get the idea of a dragon sea monster from? You're just a lizard brain with language regurgitating thoughts other people had with a thin veneer of consciousness fooling yourself into thinking you have a soul that provides creativity. Just like me!

I was thinking about the writers strike when I saw this video lately of this human lego man comic Most humor can be quantified into discrete elements combining dichotomous relationships (where two things are related one way or totally unrelated in another), exaggerations, comparisons, unique...

What is creativity, really? My drawing skills are shit. They will always be shit. They were shit when I drew a T-Rex in Mrs. Jacobson's art class in second grade and they were shit when I drew a picture of a car on a whiteboard earlier today. Last weekend my 8 year old son and I started...

What makes him a dogshit human being?

I use the app to order McDonalds and it's sooo slow compared to the point of sale system I used when I was 14 and worked at McDonalds. Annoying ass animations and cloud-based delay. Anyway, I'd love to see the drive thru times, operational cost and deployment investment on that McDonalds.

I work in automation, primarily vehicles. Sign me up for paying a bit more for flying on airlines that don't try to pioneer automation of aviation maintenance/construction/testing.

What field?

You know Booze, if you learned to read and understand context, you'd have a shot at finally getting off welfare. Within the context of this writer's guild strike, ChatGPT only has a modest impact at displacing scriptwriters for the kind of TV shows we're talking about. In the future? It'll...

All I know they said in response is in Oakwynd Information and FAQ | EverQuest Forums where they didn't really acknowledge or address any of the FTE complaints. The test server's integration of those features was unsurprisingly pushed back.

GRRM, in solidarity with WGA, is also pausing his writing on Winds of Winter, effective 2007.

Also, anyone who thinks ChatGPT is ready to churn out scripts for TV shows that you'd be willing to watch, give it a rip and post what scripts you can make with it. https://chat.openai.com/

I'm kinda interested to hear more about this. Do you know of any journalists or experts covering this that have described that problem in more detail? Especially with reference to how these mini-rooms churn out garbage and cause massive breaks in continuity because the writers pop out a script...

Bannerlord and TaleWorlds isn't really in the same ballpark of funding as SC/CiG, I think they're at 3 million copies sold. I don't know anything about 7DTD. Buuut, I'd wager that the worst crowd-sourced or indie games that make it to AA or AAA games and languish try to use their own engine...

I'd argue that Skyrim is the pinnacle ES game. It really is a stellar game, with or without mods. I wouldn't play Morrowind in 2023 without heavy mods, but I'm a big mod guy.

SC is the greatest game out there right now. I've transitioned my 401k investments from NYSE into Star Citizen's stock exchange.
