@After__History ok but weird to assume that someone who was essentially landed gentry studying in paris in the 1950s would mean they are automatically intellectually competent. it's basically colonial nepotism

@AntonHand worked on a big UE project for 7 years (professional sim industry), and much of the early years of the project was creating stuff from scratch that epic implied was part of UE4. when we succeeded they used our project as marketing example of how easy it is to make a sim in UE lol

@Fighterman_FFRC interestingly one of the lesser glow-ups compared to the other jets. maybe a more senior artist worked on this one back in ac7 because it's way nicer than the su34 for example

@feministzai @eternosansgara @nise_yoshimi have you heard of The Real Housewives lmao

[sean @seeeeaann]

@modamiyotar @Igi_POLCOM i'd wonder if it's basically the opposite and "belka did nothing wrong" is a hate speech offence lol

@VG83657 @aquelajuno @ladygeistpitjob Life destroyed? Probably?? The sad reality is that a huge proportion of women experience SA yet the vast majority of them have completely normal, happy, successful lives. Not trying to diminish Geller's acts at all but this assumption of misery feels borderline perverted.

@Cellar2235Door @MazMHussain people do this in languages all over the world when a word gets popularised in english by hollywood or internet trends or travelling for business etc. you'll hear this in japanese, dutch, swedish, polish, anywhere really

@ehyeahwhatever i have this opinion about a strange, watered-down, over-use of "egregious" which for some reason seems to happen a lot in video game discourse. it is being evolved into a synonym for something simply being "bad", yet almost always used to describe something over-powered

[sean @seeeeaann]

@Streettough thankfully my only experience of it is seeing my mother-in-law go through the application for her non-verbal nephew who needs pmuch 24hr care, and the process took months and months with - considering the context - insanely stringent checks and balances

[sean @seeeeaann]

@KumikoShy @neherk @AntonHand it doesn't matter that the pic i quickly googled might be ai. it's an example of what frutiger aero is understood as, which is a completely retrospective term for a style, that mirror's edge absolutely does not represent at all. no one in 2008 thought it was that style at all

[sean @seeeeaann]

@MrHand46182 @spectraimsim @gustwind68 yeah, the hundreds of staff at bethesda should have all staged a walk out, losing their jobs, risk runining their lives, instead of... making a kinda shitty video game. oh the humanity! these employees made a bad video game!! they deserve to die!

[sean @seeeeaann]

@MrHand46182 @spectraimsim @gustwind68 what even is the metric for "standing up" to executive producers in this case when you're just a mid-level designer or whatever? coup at the offices of a game dev studio? quit your job in a terribly unstable job market and weak economy in an extremely expensive city??

[sean @seeeeaann]

@spectraimsim @gustwind68 i really liked a reply that was like "saying the devs were just making the game the exec producers told them to make for their wage is the same as soldiers just following orders doing war crimes". generational comparison of moral severity

[sean @seeeeaann]

@KumikoShy @neherk @AntonHand in using that term you're basically disproving your own point imo. like imagine an fps parkour game that looks like THIS. it would be pretty far removed from mirror's edge aesthetic

[sean @seeeeaann]

@KumikoShy @neherk @AntonHand mirror's edge is not frutiger aero at all, which is a completely retrospective term anyway. now that you mention it, an fps parkour game in 2026 could lean into the modern frutiger aero HARD and it would look totally different to mirror's edge lol

[sean @seeeeaann]

@_Akaeru @E_Hartmann_194 @Kelvin_MkI destroyed sure but interdiction and CAS isn't always about outright kills. damage the tracks with rockets, injure the crew, maybe even kill the crew with overpressure even if the bomb barely damages the tank - now that AFV isn't getting to the battle

[sean @seeeeaann]

@Q22635587 @RealAirPower1 yes, pl15 is also an active guidance missile so i'm not sure why this account is closing the thread in a way that makes the aim120 sound specifically better than the pl15 in this regard

[sean @seeeeaann]

@te3ej @gwjphantom ah thanks for the info!
