Overall, good company. I wish they wouldn't have released BG3 in that state though, the game was very clearly still early access. All game developers should follow their philosophy though and the industry would be a better place.

There's no such thing. It's just milking people who are crazy enough to fall into the trap of buying them.
$30 is not a microtransaction, thats a macrotransaction, thats an entire other video game.

Free to play doesnt give a game a pass on predatory business tactics, they are free to play for one reason only... to sell you worthless pixels for ridiculous prices. F2P games are designed for that purpose and that purpose only.

But I agree that any paid game should have zero MTX, cosmetic or not. Industry is killing its creative aspect with all this monetisation shit.

Is overtime in this sport an extra hour of ads and 5 minutes of actual play?

Game is boring. Ubisoft somehow eclipsing EA at shitting the bed in every aspect.

Its not AR, an AR headset is something like HoloLens, this is just a VR headset with your eyes on the front.

If they are, then this vision pro is truly extortion.

VR requires a bit of setup, which is off putting. I dont have the space to have mine out all the time, theres also a shortage of high quality games. Waiting on Valve to push the envelope again.

Most modern headsets have passthrough, its not some new feature. It is the part that Apple focused on though.

An overpriced VR headset.

Yeah they advertise no ads, but then have referral links to Kayak in their app. Seems like the main devs have gone off their rockers.

It was a tongue in cheek, rhetorical question, regarding what I said before it.

I know, it was a rhetorical question given the stance they take on a lot of things always aligning with what Google wants.

I expected Mozilla to implement this, I don't know how they expect to get marketshare by just following in Google's footsteps every step of the way.
Is Firefox it's own browser or just Chrome with a different engine? Even Apple support jxl, well the decoding anyway.
