I'm here to tell you that voice actors (even very very good ones) are not expensive, more than make up for their cost in the value they bring to your game, and if Baldur's Gate can record real actors for every line of dialogue in the game, so can you for your 100 generic barks or even specific ones.

What a ridiculous situation. This is a great game.
🚨Battlestar Galactica: Deadlock (2017) is delisted🚨
Starting November 15, this game and all its DLCs will no longer be available for purchase on any platform!!
Please don's miss it, it's a great BSG game - and a nice tactical.

A great day for the golden rule of political analysis: when the right wins it is a resounding ideological victory that humiliates the left and when the left wins it is a precarious fluke that will surely end up humiliating the left. Conservatives are power’s landlords and the left merely tenants

The question isn’t "why does Signal use AWS?" It’s to look at the infrastructural requirements of any global, real-time, mass comms platform and ask how it is that we got to a place where there’s no realistic alternative to AWS and the other hyperscalers. 3/

is it allowed to share how much revenue your game/s made from Steam?
i remember that not being allowed, but now it looks like you can share revenue numbers, but also i'm afraid i may be getting misdirected by AI answers. it's hard to search if i can or can't...
anybody know?
