This is Skyrim's gameplay loop:

Step 1. Install Skyrim
Step 2. Install some mods
Step 3. launch game and configure mods
Step 4. Go back to step 2 and repeat until
Step 5. Your game is broken
Step 6. Try to figure out which of your 250 mods broke it
Step 7. Delete Skyrim
Step 8. Wait some time then return to step 1.

If you don't like Battling a mechanical dragon while riding a My Little Pony, swinging your Master's Sword while Optimus Prime is sworn to carry your burdens, you don't know how to have fun. Oh wait, nevermind that's the ending to Ready Player One.

The real shoe will drop when they announce they are done with MoCap. Light's will be off within two weeks of that.

How many custom mocap studios have they built, with their own equipment? I remember 3: Austin, L.A., and Derby.

Follow-up question, how many have they actually used? Because to my knowledge, almost all their mocap has been done other (very expensive) places like Imaginarium or whatever.

Austin was used once or twice to film local naked models.

LA was used a few times that I can kind of remember for some basic animations and is probably full of a couple million dollars of unlisted equipment that'll vanish during an audit.

Now they will have to spend all their engineering resources to get useless face animations in the game (where every player is the same dude) instead of something to actually do in the game.

It really defies belief. They are selling PRE-ORDERS for a camera that doesn't yet exist, for a feature that doesn't yet exist, for a game that doesn't exist.

He's polydactyl, has superfluous vertebrae & has literally more whiskers than a cat is entitled to have. I love my little old dude, had him for 15 years since I saw him on sale at a pet store in the mall, marked down since he was the last kitten in his litter.
