@Funk_fu749@SaffronOlive@bashmcalister Additionally Warcraft IP had already existed for 10 years when WoW came out. So it wasn’t completely starting from scratch imo.
@Funk_fu749@SaffronOlive@bashmcalister 500k players at everquests peak, 12 million for wow. EverQuest never quite had the market share to make a weak product/make mistakes and live thru it imo.
@SaffronOlive@bashmcalister Wow and magic have the ability to make multiple shitty products and then one good one brings people back due to prior investment - new tcg and mmo’s have no margin for slight error
@SaffronOlive@bashmcalister World of Warcraft and Magic are very very strong arguments for after surpassing a certain amount of market share being too big to fail
@ZdotMurry dunno if you’ve been watching the playoffs any but Stephon Castle is your kinda guy. Hell this hole spurs team, never complain to the refs, no flopping just play really hard.
@spudhawg@SarahLongwell25 As a left winger I can barely stand specifically kristol and not because I think he’s clueless he is just an old school conservative. I am defending him despite getting annoyed most of the time when he talks.
@zdch You couldn’t double KD in okc or golden state. Very few are as good of a passer as LeBron but Durant isn’t a bad passer, there’s just… no one on Houston to punish.
@hungryhorsepokr So much cheaper to push nits out of pots, you small bet flop, 3/4 turn and they tap out with the hands that action player require 3 barrels to MAYBE move off their hand.
@TaylorHenry9 Jokic is the craziest offensive player I’ve ever seen. He’s is so good I give them a solid chance against one of the most complete teams in history with a healthy lineup.
@SarahLongwell25 have you stated openly your views on Israel, Hamas, and Palestine? I’m not trying to gotcha, just seems like you don’t like anyone else’s views?
@zdch@deanwball@trynmccaffery My concern with AI is that the tech powers that be are akin to Charles Wilson of GM in 1953. Incredible tool that needs strong regulation to protect citizens. Clearly a broad statement but I think that is the most common sentiment among the people I’m around.
