The GZDoom community just split over AI code drama (flimsy excuse used by ******** who want to be in charge), now there's UZDoom, which adds essential features such as raytracing and removing deadnames from the code

I think getting review-bombed by libtards today is kinda good for getting your game free advertisement across social media

New game that says to be inspired by Majesty. This looks a little too much like Majesty 2 for my taste, but they did get George Ladeaux back as the advisor's voice actor.

what did Chirac do?
At the invitation of Saddam Hussein (then vice-president of Iraq, but de facto dictator), Chirac made an official visit to Baghdad in 1975. Hussein approved a deal granting French oil companies a number of privileges plus a 23-percent share of Iraqi oil.[101] As part of this deal, France sold Iraq the Osirak MTR nuclear reactor, designed to test nuclear materials.

Mladić's 23-year-old daughter apparently killed herself in 1994 as revenge because he sent her boyfriend to fight and die at the frontlines during the Bosnian War.

Funny how there's no Churchill or Roosevelt in that picture.

Granted, for Churchill, it was mostly Indians, but still.

I looked into this after seeing Wraith say that. I think I did, apparently it was made free as part of a promotion for the sequel and I downloaded it then.

Y'know, I think the biggest problem with Xbox's downfall is the MOUNTAIN of e-waste that will be unleashed when all of the unsold consoles are dumped into landfills. Or the 33+ million suckers who bought a Series X thinking the company still had a chance, and can't even give their consoles away. It's a good thing India exists, maybe the chief of some village over there will build a new slum palace made of Xboxes.

When Crimson Desert was first teased I thought it looked really good and followed some updates on it for the next 6 or 7 years but nobody else really cared for it.

Then a month or two ago they posted their first proper gameplay trailer and I realised it looked trash. Unoptimized mess, stuttery lag, horrendous particle effects, awful lighting, jankey combat, horrible hit freeze frames, ****** camera angles, etc.

I got disinterested immediately from that first gameplay video but everyone else is now raving about it. But I also think a lot of the comments are bots made to make the game look good (like ushers).

People are just going to preorder it claiming it's going to be a masterpiece but then when they play they will realize it's ****. Why are people so dumb they can't see a **** game from a video? Same thing happened with CyberJunk 2077.

Idea for a project: track the number of times the words 'she' and 'her' is used on the doom wiki by year

Your methodology slightly is flawed, should probably track the number of times any pronoun besides 'he' and 'him' is used.

Okay it's been about 4-5 years actually but you can see the first reveal I was on about here:

It's completely insane that VT2 has received more new maps since Darktide's launch than Darktide has, and this is after their song and dance about how hard it is to make new maps. I'll take my Catachan Jungle Fighter or Skitarii Ranger tho.

e: forgot you can literally pick Catachan as a homeworld in the character creator. Too much overlap with the vet anyway.
