  • hence why this article is not a big deal or dig at China in any way lmao

    Why does everything need to be whataboutism’d to America. Yes we also have companies that work with our military, who gives a fuck? This article is simply pointing out that a big Chinese company with ties to lots of social media (Reddit for example) is also mil adjacent.

    It’s just a fact, not commentary on China that then makes the US hypocritical.

    Why are you making whataboutist comments unrelated to the article? Every fucking country has companies that work with their military, that’s not what the article is about.



  • Cool whataboutism, this article is about a Chinese company and China, not about America or its mil companies.

    It’s not like it’s an insult to say Tencent is involved with the Chinese military, why are you so defensive? Do you think you’re sharing unknown info? I think we’re all quite aware of the US MIC.

    Do you seriously believe China and every other country doesn’t keep similar lists already? This is basic ass shit.

    Every time anything about China is posted someone like you comes running to tell us all “b-b-but America too!!!” as if that changes a damn thing in regards to the discussion topic at hand.






  • How exactly is the rest of AI a different conversation??? Were talking about the power requirements of running AI at scale and somehow you think it’s not only correct but implied that this convo should just be about colloquial parts AI and anything else is a totally different topic in regards to power consumption?

    totally deserving of the hate it gets

    Yeah so breakthroughs in chemistry and other sciences for example, deserving of hate eh?

    Nothing good comes from AI… when all you know about AI is colloquial lmao



  • So if that’s true then why did nobody buy Callisto protocol then? If it’s not about deadspace but instead about EA being greedy, then why did one of the original deadspace devs go and make their own legally distinct version of deadspace with a big budget and a brand new studio — just to see it fall on its face and fail?

    Maybe the market isn’t interested at the moment as they’ve already turned their nose up at DS remakes from EA as well as spiritual successors from the original DS devs??

    Oh, but EA can’t market add-on content? As if DLC story and new modes doesn’t exist?? You seriously think EA is incapable of developing DLC and charging money for it???


  • They kinda did, and the person you replied to mentioned it — Callisto protocol

    given the budget was like 160 mil, not exactly Indy but:

    “The Callisto Protocol was a brand-new IP from a newly established studio, but he game received mixed reviews from critics, which may have affected its appeal to players. The PC version of the game was plagued by performance problems at launch, which may have deterred some players.”
