Apple lowered the price of the original iPhone in 2007 from $600 to $400 after 10 weeks on the market.

Thanks for sharing, your other article was fantastic also!

oh ok how’s that price hike going?

wtf who says this to people? Who raised you?

I agree with this take. It’s a tool, used terribly for the most part, but I wouldn’t have expected the world to make great films with cameras 3 years in either.

Great argument bud.

you’re making good points, so please don’t see what I’m saying as needlessly confrontational. What I’m saying is that this happens to any game that uses it in any way whatsoever, so it can’t just be about quality, it moves into ideology.

You’re conflating things that aren’t related. if they do shit work, criticize the shit work. This is obviously rallying a witch hunt based on the tool used. You could as easily say in 1996 that Toy Story is shit and if they cared they would have bothered to hand draw all their work. it’s just a different way of making visual content, as is all the virtual content you see in any game, the textures, polygons, fake lighting, etc. all generated by a computer at the direction of a human.

eta: I’m not gonna argue with all of lemmy about this, just want to add: I wish these devs would actually just be honest, also. They keep going “I don’t know how this happened!” but obviously it happened because it was useful to the process of making games. just own up to it.

downvote if you want but I honestly am struggling to care at this point. We need to make every studio that uses a technology that’s been around for years do this stupid dance every week?
