Oh, guess I misunderstood too. Do you have a specific example of this? Kinda curious because I guess when I watched them I just hand waved it away as "that's just game physics :shrug:"

Why would there be contracts requiring simultaneous launches?

because a game like cyberpunk will move consoles and/or computer parts. if you release on PlayStation even just a week before you do xbox, Microsoft might think that they'll lose console sales because of it

We’re talked in circles a lot about crunch. Today, YouTube decided that I should see our own ropekid propose fixes from within the industry. So I thought of this thread.

Thank you for sharing this. Gave a lot of insight and helped fleshing out my patchy understanding of crunch and the state of the industry.

How dare you!? Keanu Reeves is timeless.

Here he is, riding with his mom to the set.



In fairness, I think they can carry another Matrix just fine. It sucks that Laurence Fishburne is sitting this one out though. Hopefully it wasn't because his character was killed off in the Matrix MMO. That would be the worst reason to miss out on more Morpheus.

I mean whether or not Morpheus was killed off shouldn't be the issue. The issue should be both Trinity and Neo died in the third movie!

They can go ahead and drop everything but the first move and I guess Animatrix from the canon.

Cloud Atlas was an excellent book and I am confused that it was somehow turned into a movie that I enjoyed. I remember reading it then thinking 'wow, this is a book that should never be turned into a movie'.

ASK ME ABOUT BEING ALLERGIC TO POSITIVITY

One thing I'm unsure of... when they say that the next gen upgrade is due out next year does that mean that it will be a whole new game packaged for the Series X (etc) or just a download/update for existing customers?

And until then, playing on a Series X, will basically just be playing a smooth version of current gen release, is that right?

Well everything is smooth if you manually turn the details down.

I think Neo coming back is fine since he died in the Matrix so who knows what computer wizardry could have kept him alive or brought him back, as long as he just stays in the Matrix. Trinity, on the other hand, was loving dead.

Trinity showing back up along with Keanu with a shaved head, implying somehow he goes back to the real world and Morpheus being back but recast with a much younger actor (????) makes me wish this wasn't happening.

It's probably all hands on deck situation. It must suck having to chose how much you need to downgrade visuals and global settings to get into the safe zone wrt console hardware.

In my experience, "all hands on deck" usually means "Everyone's forced into the office to be miserable while the 1 or 2 people who can actually work on the problem do so"

Too many cooks and all that jazz.

ok but what leverage would sony or microsoft have? withholding dev kits and other support? I assume cdpr did not take money from either company
