Same thing Spotify did.

Ignoring graphical aspects. It might be good game, it's just not a DOOM game other than in name and monsters. I played the shit out of the originals and I felt with D2016 they really captured the essence of it but with just a few new simple additions to keep it fresh, then when I started Eternal it felt like I was playing a different franchise, wall climbing and grappling hooks? The pacing was all off. Maybe the dev team moved on, I dont know, but I was left extremely disappointed.
Imo, they have downgraded each time.
2016 was a great reboot of the franchise, it felt like a modern version of the originals. It looked great and ran great.
Then Eternal added pointless wall climbing, loads of skills, put the whole game on rails. The start of the game is like a tutorial for 2 hours, good game design doesnt require you to tell me exactly what to do every 5 minutes. The graphics got downgraded with some shitty AA added, probably Temporal, I cant remember and the performance was down across the board. The game just didnt feel like DOOM anymore and was a poor continuation from 2016.
Now we have this forced ray tracing, probably going to require DLSS and shit. This has to be a case of Nvidia slipping cash right? No way they would be so stupid? It'll probably be a case of updating to remove the requirement a few months down the line.
I will bite. You could scroll through landscape videos with a swipe of the thumb, in just the same way as you can with portrait. I watch YouTube videos in landscape, it's not really a hassle for me to rotate my phone, it can pivot on a pinch really effortlessly, that's the beauty of a small screen in your hand. I am obviously not going to remount a TV for the same reason, so the analogy is kind of mute.
While there is a use case for both orientations, landscape is generally better (especially for the content I like), which is why it was chosen for video content across the world before these shortform vertical videos took off with social media. But I suppose for content where someone just talking to you, then portrait fills the screen better with their face.
So does landscape.
Lemmy.world is the worst offender I have come across personally. Lemmy.ml is reddit like too, but it's mostly okay for discussion and it hosts a lot of posts so I don't really want to block it.
What the echo chamber of reddit doesnt have critical thinking? Well I never...
The last price hike was really the final straw, but I still have a grandfathered subscription. If any of this goes through, I will cancel and will probably never return.
What is even suggested in the survey is absolutely absurd.
Probably not and he doesn't have the self-awareness to resign, so it's a real shame. I doubt their "mission" will change from these comments, but it leaves a sour enough taste to force people to look elsewhere, me included.
If there's a way for the rest of Proton to force him out, now would be a good time to save face.
Because people really like the core game, so they subconsciously (or consciously) look over the issues and refuse to admit issues even exist half the time (the amount of people who tell me it has no bugs... lmao).
Doing a playthrough at the moment and have come across a lot of the same bugs and issues from when I played at launch, along with new ones. The game definitely needed more time in development, but maybe the money was running out, I have no idea. It does seem like they rushed to finish a lot of questlines when you play and that list you posted is just concrete evidence of it.
Still I enjoy it overall, but won't be buying their next game as quickly. Especially if they still don't fix the fucking camera...
None. Pixel if you had to pick, but the SoC sucks. And the Asus phones have like no software support, so they are definitely not worth buying.
