I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the whole thing.

The back and forth on twitter/bluesky over this topic was pretty wide ranging, and size/cost definitely was a topic discussed. And besides a lot of the "quality" of BG3 was the fact that it supported endless paths through the game, something which requires a lot of development effort.

Making smaller games isn't a bad thing. Every game being a BG3 would be completely unsustainable. Sure, that game was a great accomplishment, but also imagine if they'd made the game that size and it was bad. It would've probably sunk the studio. I'm all about more A and AA games. Not everything needs to be a 300 person effort.

I think the number of scammers went way up though

Fun fact, you can do a light rubbing/knocking on a tree trunk to coax a screech owl into showing itself.

Been maintaining a steady set of bookmarks since whenever Foxmarks first came out. I dunno I search through them fairly frequently for stuff that I can't remember well enough to Google.

Questionable message and definitely not a meme.

I'm a little unclear on what point the author is trying to make but perhaps that's because I'm not familiar with this comic.

Edit: tbh I think I agree with the sentiment that this is just a shit comic. If there's any worthwhile message it's very poorly expressed.

I just assumed it meant they were working on Exchange servers which is a guaranteed bad time.

The fact that your autocorrect is capitalizing Exchange makes me think you've had some bad times.

shrug I guess we'll see but I don't think it's at all far fetched to think that more people will be lining up and saving for a switch 2 compared to a new xbox, even a year after the launch. The switch is one of the most successful consoles of all time and I don't see any indication that demand for the switch 2 will be softer.

The problem with the question of why is that you can always ask why again. Say we do understand the mechanism of the big bang. You can still ask "why" about why things are that way. Which is why in my view that's still more of a "how?" "Why" is more of a question for philosophers than scientists imo.
