Yoko Taro was probably more weirded out by the whole thing than the Matt Lee guy, given that girl description of that event. Given how shy the guy is, I doubt he felt like a rockstar.

[Tripon]

Matt Lee's doing his best job at mansplaining. 

[Boredfrom]

He seems to be criticizing the dev for going through with it not the girl for asking;  but dude needs to lighten up.

But that is the thing, you are criticizing a guy that is most well known for being shy as hell than being a creep, in a situation with two consenting adults.

Just school 

When I was in high school I would always compare it to a concentration camp and/or prison.
After all they were structures to lock up a specific minority and re-educate them and everyone outside pretended they didn't know what was going on inside.

Especially when they introduced school passes with personal student numbers and metal detectors post 9/11 for 'security'.

over two months I think and they have added 4 games from launch for a total of around 24?

Don't think so not since like week 2;  they do keep giving away games on the Pro sub though, just announced 2 for Feb. including their one current "exclusive" (Gylt, some boring looking crap.)

i saw someone bitching on the games reddit that google is actually removing a game (tomb raider?) from the pro subscription. if so, that's pretty stupid to license a game for like two months.

[Uncle]

it's weird bizarre that the least of their worries has been the technology which sounds like it works better than predicted

it's shit like saying 4K 60 FPS FOR EVERY GAME and that ends up being an easily disproven lie

[nachobro]

I mean.. that's the Pro Sub model.. you can keep the game as long as you redeemed it.  Same as XBL Gold or PSN+, or EGS giveaways.

ah ok. i thought it was meant to be more like a gamepass thing. if it's just a monthly deal thats fine.

also even the stadia diehards on reddit are annoyed

Stadia has officially gone 40 days without a new game announcement/release, feature update, or real community update. It has been out for 69 days. It's time we demand better.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Stadia/comments/eusxgc/stadia_has_officially_gone_40_days_without_a_new/

[nachobro]

i wonder how much its even being played. jeff from gb said he purposely added any fan or internet person that sent him a friend request and logs on to check how popular it is and no one is ever online or playing anything, even destiny.

[Ghoul]

Still find Destiny 2 being 1080p on Medium just bizarre... even w/ 60FPS that makes no sense.

But I suspect since that is their most played game they are splitting Stadia instances up to run it.     Either way.. nobody fucking knows because Google doesn't say anything lol

The amount of particle effects on the higher settings are pretty insane, still it’s unbelievable after all the shit google was talking about it being so powerful at the launch of it.

[Nintex]

When a co-worker of mine showed it to me, I thought it looked neat.
But that's it really. There's so many ways to play games now.

All the cool stuff they promised basically isn't there.

The plethora of dating apps has bolstered society’s obsession with sex, but many people find that a period of abstinence makes them happier and healthier

In a world where you can get a sexual partner faster than a pizza delivery, it has never been easier to play the field. Yet, despite all that swiping right, a surprising number of people are not having sex at all – not for religious reasons, or because they can’t get a date, but because they find that celibacy makes them happier.

Some have never had much interest in sex, while others are taking a break to address personal problems, recover from bad dating experiences or change the way they approach relationships.

Single people can feel like outsiders when they choose celibacy, but this feeling is often amplified for couples. “There’s an enormous pressure in our society to be sexually active and have great sex all the time, but not everyone has positive experiences or gets a lot out of it,” says Ammanda Major, the head of clinical practice at the relationship charity Relate. “There’s lots of ‘shoulds’ and ‘oughts’ when it comes to sex and people are quick to judge.”

There's anecdotes in the article. Do you think there's excessive pressure in society to have a sex life, ERA?

Virgins.

It's The Guardian...it's basically REEEsetera distilled into one bitter and twisted publication.

I mean, it's a known thing that fans will sometime ask you to sign their body parts. As long as it's consensual, I don't see why it's anyone business.

Yes, there's some weird power Dynamics at play at famous people using their popularity to prey on their fans. But that's not the accusation here. Or is Matt Lee's saying that Yoko Taro was trying to sleep with the other person.

So I'm an Advisor for my community college's Anime/Gaming club. We've been in existence since 2004 and I've been in charge since 2008, and over the years we've, of course, fluctuated with the times and focused on various social activities. In recent years there's been a downturn in students that want to join the club since we can't do as many activities as we used to due to Red tape (basically we have to give 3 weeks for larger events before they happen, and 2 weeks for smaller events). Thing is we need students to join us as many of our members will be graduating soon. Since I'm an older Millennial my tastes and views on games and Anime are probably vastly different than younger Millennials and Gen Zers.

So what I'm hoping for here is suggestions in ways to get students active in my club? We already do tournaments for various games, so gamers tend to come to us easily but what I'm looking for is the Anime fans. I've seen a lot of students watching it on computers in the library and in the Student union (commons). So any suggestions on how to create events that would cater to the Anime crowd, or something that we can do, other than "Put on Anime" -we've tried to do that and it doesn't seem to get them to want to come to us.

(For the record we're in the states.)

Just so you know things we've tried:

White Day Celebration -covering the Asian Holiday that follows Valentines day
Ghibli movie -found out we need licensing rights, and the school wasn't willing to pay for it since they already had used that upon other live-action movies
Origami day -Did not attract people, or they didn't get the idea of paper folding (would be willing to try that again if we can get someone to teach it)
Maid Cafe -Was a bust due to the school insisting we use the business that runs the cafeteria and no one likes their deserts, also stuck in a corner room so no one saw us.
Anime Days -Gamers will come in and take over the tvs after about an hour or so since the room we use has to be open to the public.
Japanese lessons -Only club members came and we had too many screwing around rather than learning.

I'm open to suggestions, any suggestions at this point. Keep in mind we're not a huge community college, and the vast majority of the school is Hispanic but there are a lot of anime fans, as I've seen them walking around with plushies and various anime on their shirts. Also, I'd like to get girls to join us as the group is mostly dudes and it would be nice to have equal parts women and men in there.

just announced time exclusives and over 100 games coming this year and have yet to launch their main business model (free).

according to reddit the 100 games thing is google saying they are tracking 100 games that could potentially also launch on stadia, not that there are 100 games coming.

some people are just nuts. i think it'd be cool if stadia worked like they said and was actually a success but lets not just make stuff up.

Honestly, Hitler-picking coach did nothing wrong. That answer was completely valid. He didn't express any agreement with the man's ideals or actions. He said he'd like to talk about one specific skill with a guy who he assumes had that skill.

As a teacher, I can say unequivocally that the guy was a fucking distinguished mentally-challenged fellow.  I agree with your sentiment, but professionally you should know that saying something like that is akin to career suicide. The only person who wouldn't know that is someone so utterly distinguished mentally-challenged that they shouldn't be teaching kids anyway.

Didn't Gearbox release an old build of Borderlands 3 on Stadia? Yeah, here we go:

One of the biggest issues with the Borderlands 3 Stadia port is that it's outdated compared to other versions of the game, missing various quality of life improvements, balance changes, and content updates available elsewhere. And if the Borderlands 3 Stadia port fails to drum up much interest, it's hard to see Gearbox Software seriously supporting it for the long run. Considering this, it's easy to see a scenario where Borderlands 3 on Stadia is constantly lagging behind its console and PC counterparts, making it a questionable investment.

What a joke of a service.

What makes you think they were paid to release a game on Stadia? 

Borderlands 3 is on Mac.. so basically Linux.. probably why they went the extra step of porting to Stadia.

AFAIK its only on Mac because Epic were / are still trying to reclaim some value on their moneyhats
I have no evidence the games that have showed up on stadia have been financially incentivised to do so, other than thats how publishers generally treat new untested platforms

I don't get how you need to build a separate build for stadia. But I don't know much how the thing is supposed to work. Is it because stadia has to be ARM based because that's what the servers are running on?

I believe Mac games use something called METAL which is also fairly easy to port to Vulkan, just from what I've read.

Mantle (DICE-EA and AMD made)->Vulkan (Chronos Group replaces OpenGL with it)
DirectX 12 (Microsoft) takes things from it but is it's own offshoot (being an earlier thing: DirectX which competed with OpenGL)
Metal (Apple) takes from it (OpenGL but with Vulkan's programming targets/objectives), but is it's own offshoot IIRC.

i don't think too many devs do their own mac ports thes days, that's what companies like aspyr exist to do. blizzard does their own development of mac on wow but no other games, maybe hearthstone. i know unity did add support for metal but not sure about unreal.

of course it would be smart for apple to just support vulkan over metal but that won't happen because they didn't make it.

Nintendo's pricing scheme is savage.
You can't transfer your old Pokemon unless you subscribe for $16 a year or $3 a month. 
Of course you need Switch Online too and the DLC.

So you're looking at:
Pokemon Sword or Shield:  A FULL 60 DOLLARS /angryjoe
Switch Online: $20
Pokemon Bank: $5 (of course you can't cancel this before you transfer)
Pokemon Home: $16
Pokemon DLC: $30
------------------------
$131 for the Full Pokemon Sword or Shield Experience(TM)

The issue with Pokemon Home is that all that functionality was available in the base game until recently.

They basically removed a feature that was already there--GTS.

There is a free version luckily, so it's not that crazy. But the value is something I don't get. It's basically paying GameFreak to hold your Pokemon collection hostage lol.

And you need to pay for Nintendo online on top of that.

The Pokemon Company is so damn greedy.  Since Nintendo can't control them. They can get away with this. I doubt Nintendo would allow this if they had full control.
