Re: Protests at GTA Developer After Sacked Staff Deny Leaking Confidential Info

@nessisonett I work at a place that did something similar. They couldn’t fire the person who joined a union on their own, so they eliminated the entire position across the company to mask getting rid of 1 person. 28 people lost their jobs. They called it “restructuring “. We were already short handed too so it only made the job worse for the rest of us.

Re: PS6 Could Be the Only Next-Gen Console Charging for Online Multiplayer

@Northern_munkey I’m a minimalist though. I prefer bare bones as opposed to the garbage we’re getting today. I don’t think anything they’ve added makes up for the value in the free psn. Personal opinion. I didn’t have issues with match making then really. Yea, it was slower. But again, I grew up with loading screens being normal so it doesn’t bother me much.

Re: Halo's Worst Level Will Be Much Improved on PS5

HRdepartment

I liked all of halo 1. Masterpiece. So many of us bought a system just for that game. However…. A lot of game’s aspects age differently because of the times. Somethings are best left in the past. Remaking everything tarnishes our memories of the time. But hey. I’m old. What do I know.

Re: This Is Why Xbox Is Bringing All of Its Games to PS5 Now

HRdepartment

@Medic_alert that’s as accurate as a statement as it can be. I work in a company that’s setting unrealistic number expectations and to achieve those numbers it comes at a great cost I know wasn’t considered when they set those numbers. Now they’re in a constant state of thinking addition through subtraction. But it just doesn’t work that way if you drive away business through scummy practices to achieve a number.

Re: PS5 Pro Is Definitely Not the Best Place to Play The Outer Worlds 2 at Launch

HRdepartment

What I love about the pro. Is that those who have to spend time trying to justify its existence. I got one. I literally see no difference in the games I play. That’s because you really have to pay attention to it for it to matter. At that point you’re just straining your eyes to make yourself feel good about the purchase. And fine go ahead. Jump on here and talk about how great the game is “singing” on your pro. But I can see what I paid for and it isn’t worth it. Lesson learned.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 603

I’m in act 3 of Clair obscur now. I was scared for a moment I wouldn’t have a chance to go back and clear up all the stuff I missed before after I finished act 2. The gesturals are easily one of if not my favorite side “comedy” characters in a game. I’m almost intentionally putting off going forward in the story because I don’t want the game to end. So good. Game of the gen for me unseating returnal.
