they're getting bought by Tencent
1000%
their last profitable game was back in 2021, Far Cry 6
and before that, AssCreed Valhalla in 2020
the next game that'll make a profit are their two small games releasing this year, HoMM and Anno 117
and there are no AAA games on their roadmap (with release dates) that will be profitable
lol
Division 3 is probably coming 2026, nothing's really known about it
it's been in development hell
Polu
did you know
they greenlit a Hyperscape 2
somehow, the first game flopping and dying within 6 months
gave them the confidence to make a sequel
and they just shut down XDefiant, after <1 year
agreed, xDefiant was incredibly bad
idk how to make arena shooters "work" in 2025
but Hyperscape wasn't promising enough to warrent a 2nd chance

this really is whiplash to me because i used to set my custom "active game" on steam

Posting mostly for spooky, the people behind long live the queen, for whatever reason, are trying to make more games in an expanded universe for some fucking reason.
idk why the fuck
what a weird decision
Pika, the art for their next game...
it's so much worse
I feel like this is a Hunniepop--->Hunniecam studio thing
yeah idk
I think that whole management subgenere is kind of uninteresting
wait lmao
Pika, check out one of the very few games they've released in the interim
yeah
I was looking at their other games after this
after further experimentation I learned that minecraft doesn't let your datapack have any insight into if an item is on cooldown, and the horn is a continuous use item like food despite the fact that it goes on cooldown instantly, so if you try to make it capable of reverting the size change you will just spam toggle size change until the use button is released

I'm thinking they fucked it up
how long of a run were you thinking?
The first time we did it and were trying to keep the runs tight, I thought it was more fun, <4 hours or so
either way, I'll probably be around, will look at the new list of games later
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 I'm thinking they fucked it up (edited)
its just people being mad that its extremely early access
I'll probably not pick it up until release, but good to know there might be hope for it still

Fuck that guy whatever he did
Don't name yourself pirate and do software
That's my thing
