Good riddance to Bioware.
Upon reflection, my gut reaction was correct and remains in force.
Don't try to save the IPs, even Mass Effect.
Everything dies and births something new.
Remember fondly what was, and how they told you that YOU were wrong.
Find a newborn to love.
Western games are no longer made and marketed by competent people.
I recently watched Gears of War: Race to E3, a 20-min. documentary showing the hectic month Epic Games spent polishing the original Gears of War demo for E3 2006.
What's there?
A bunch of highly competent and talented developers making a badass game while persuading a Microsoft proto-girl boss (Laura Fryer) that the chainsaw had to be there.
Needless to say, the E3 2006 presentation of Gears of War was a success.
And the proto-girl boss ended up falling in love with the chainsaw.
Compare that with the uninspiring, dull, boring, and at times bizarre way Microsoft showcased E-Day this summer.
You can tell there's a world of difference between the teams that used to build games and the teams pretending to build games nowadays.
Western gaming is lost.
And only guys who follow accounts like mine will rebuild it.
They are the ones. The 4 who opened Europe to the Islamic invasion. Look them straight in the face. Top left Merkel. Top right von der Leyen. Bottom left Macron. Bottom right Sanchez. They are the ones responsible. They opened the borders. They signed the Migration Pact. They turned Europe into a 5 star hotel for those who arrive illegally. Merkel in 2015 said "they are all welcome". Von der Leyen from Brussels imposed quotas and mandatory solidarity. Macron and Sanchez applauded and threw open the doors of their countries. The result you see every day in your cities. Chaos, insecurity, Islamic invasion. This photo is the photo of the guilty. Sooner or later they will have to answer.
The core of transgender mental illness is cluster B psychopathology. Lies, threats, and bullying are the the behavioral phenotype. In severe cases, you end up with violent antisociality.
It's shit.
Get over it .
Veilguard is the perfect example how detached from reality and self entitled are current game writers in today's AAA studios .
You praise shit like Dustborn and Mixtape, hated by everyone with a pair of functional eyes & expect to be taken seriously ?
Dear Japanese, don't listen to weirdos who cry every time they see a sexy woman in Anime!
They are not fans! They are morons who can't separate fiction from reality!
🇫🇷 A French politician poses for photos with MASKED RIOTERS just minutes before they TRASH a bank in Grenoble.
And the man in the pictures? He's in charge of the city's FINANCE commission.
Allan Brunon, an elected official from the far-left LFI party, smiles for the camera alongside black bloc-style protesters.
Just minutes later, some of those demonstrators allegedly ransacked a Crédit Agricole branch.
Seriously, a city finance official posing with masked protesters while banks are getting smashed up?
You couldn't write a more ridiculous set of circumstances.

Activists don't care about IP!
Activists don't care about fans!
Activist don't care if a company they work for loses millions of dollars!
The only thing they care about is pushing the message!

People LOSE THEIR MINDS every time Elon says HITLER was a SOCIALIST
“That’s not real socialism,” they say. “It was just in the name.”
Except Hitler kept calling himself a socialist.
The party was literally the National Socialist German Workers’ Party. Their official program called for nationalizing trusts, profit-sharing, ending “unearned income,” land reform, and putting the common good above the individual.
Once in power they ran the economy with price controls, directed production, and a 4-Year Plan that subordinated private companies to the state’s goals.
They just redefined socialism as racial solidarity instead of class war, then purged the actual leftists inside the party who took it too seriously.
That’s not a gotcha. It’s literally what they did.
And the operating system is still running:
They capture language so words only mean what the movement needs them to mean. They sort people by group identity and treat the other side as the enemy, not someone to persuade. They run purity spirals where the most extreme enforcer wins. They elevate lived experience or the anointed voice over evidence.
They demand the whole person (speech, associations, conscience) for the collective. Individual rights exist only so long as they serve the cause.
Same pattern. Different branding. That’s the case.
Learn your history people.

Modders have unlocked hidden AI compute performance on NVIDIA’s RTX 20, 30 and 40-series GPUs.
The modifications remove software-level limits on certain Tensor Core operations, without changing the hardware or flashing a new VBIOS.
- RTX 4090: 165.6 → 331.6 TFLOPS FP16 Tensor Core throughput
-RTX 3090 Ti: 87.5 → 157.4 TFLOPS BF16 performance
- RTX 2080 Ti: 59.9 → 111 TFLOPS FP16→FP32 performance
- RTX 3090: 73.0 → 122.8 TFLOPS in a PyTorch GEMM test
The gains are mainly relevant to AI and compute workloads, not gaming.
