Lords of the Fallen 2 is no longer Epic exclusive. And oddly enough, CI made a deal termination public.

I assume, that Epic Store can help with the initial revenue (both from sales and bonuses) but has a horrible tail (barely any post launch sales).

Spellcaster Chronicles from Quantic Dream is going to be closed. The game only made it to 1000 CCU on Steam and now holds about 20...

... NetEase, according to insights, will cease funding of the studio due to the failure of the game. Their more common story-driven projects were supposed to be funded from the success of this multiplayer.

Who's going to tell them?
Haven't they noticed yet?!

The new Google "Gradient" icons redesign surprised me with very poor contrast, the icons are barely readable.

Even on a big HDR screen they are incredibly bland and on an average sRGB screen they simply fall into banding due to selected color schemes. Just why?

There's no Netflix adaptation of The Last Airbender in Ba Sing Se!

Since I watched the original one before moving on to the series, I kinda liked some of the elements (Kioshi warriors, for example, are perfect). Azula was not looking intimidating though.

Oddly good coming of age story that mimics the drama and romance but in reality it's closer to Blade Runner 2049 in terms of the resolution. And no one dies except maybe in the first two minutes of the movie.

Bungie gives up on Destiny 2: the game will no longer get any updates after the upcoming final one.

This news appeared after the commercial reports revealed that the studio is the financial black hole and caused over $700m losses for PlayStation during the last financial year alone.

Marathon waves between 3 and 12K CCU daily without any noticeable recovery. And fell to 225th position among top sellers on Steam. Now Bungie is hoping to explore what to do next.

PlayStation acquired Bungie for $3.6 Bn in January of 2022. The studio that was earning around $200m annually and not growing. One active project, another one in pre-production. No significant IPs in their pockets, no reason to value it that high.

They made it a support machine for all the multiplayer projects (all of which failed commercially or were closed before the release). It diverted their focus from Destiny 2. And now their own Marathon is $700m+ in losses.

What business strategy is that?

Todayโ€™s Vanguard anti-cheat update blocked the majority of DMA firmwares using SATA/NVMe.

VGK suddenly triggered an IOMMU restart warning in-game, after which the DMA firmware becomes completely unusable, even without the game running or after uninstalling Vanguard. Only fix is a full OS reinstall.

Itโ€™s using IOMMU to create read blocks, which permanently breaks the majority of almost all SATA/NVMe firmwares once triggered.

Even the advanced H2-board got affected.
