Where were you for the last 2 decades? Casualfas owns gaming now, anon. The need that gamepad to play candycrush.

If you guys feel like Valve the company seems to be very capable of programming computers but routinely breaks things left and right, the answer is C++.

It isn't literally just C++, but the quick answer is C++.
C++ has undergone a hundred different facelifts over the years but they've also added a thousand things.

People use the term "spaghetti code" to refer to code that sends you around in circles and isn't very easy to make sense of. Usually by redirecting control flow all over the place.

It's a thousand times worse and a thousand times more complicated. Imagine a bunch of brambles as large as a house. Some branches are as big as your arm and some are as thin as a needle and the average one is as big as a shoelace. Your job is to implement cable management and sort everything into its "proper place", whatever the fuck that looks like.

3 months into this project you find out that a clump of brambles as big as a car is probably best stored underground, so you throw that bit out and start over.

There is a new version of C++ approximately every 3 years.

2nd shift chad here. I get up between 8-9am, have tea and breakfast, then go to work at noon and go home around 9. I had plenty of time to mash that buy button at 10am. Be mad, stay mad, die mad.

Video games havent been good in well over a decade
Genuinely who the FUCK is out there still consuming all this pig shit slop from a trough year after year
Do you really have absolutelu NOTHING else to live for and NOTHING else in life that there are SERIOUSLY people consuming mediocrity in a dying and creatively bankrupt empire
Go outside
Get a real hobby
You are mentally ill and have no testosterone left, and you are definitely covid vaccinated, in the waiting room of your dying civilisation
You are not living a life worth living
Zoomers are the most worthless generation to have ever existed. Even worse than boomers, and you deserve everything taken from you in life

probably game devs and qa companies

yeah I wonder why

Killing scalping would be as easy as banning all listings of stuff that suddenly get tons of listings all at once because it's obvious scalper activity
keep doing that for a month and the scalpers will be fucked with stock they won't make a profit off of
>>
>>738219074
This would require stores to actually take any action
that's extra work to get less people using them, so they won't do shit unless it's enforced by law
>>
These things don't need "shortages" parts, you'd think they in be stock regularly, but they won't be.
>>
>>738212959
One-step thinkers really are a something. Anon, if re-sellers are buying them that would heavily imply that there is actual demand for them, because otherwise those re-sellers would just be buyers.

I'm not going back to the slouched crab posture. No fucking way, those days are OVER.
