@Asher_Author @fandompulse If anyone could do it, it would be Joe but I rather Joe keep going with The First Law series. IMO it is superior anyways.

Brandon Sanderson on why he would not finish George R.R. Martin's Game of Thrones even if he was asked: "I wouldn't say yes to finishing ASOIAF, if asked. (And I don't think they'd ask me.) I'd respectfully decline. I wouldn't be right for the job for many reasons. I wouldn't want to put in the content that the series has, and part of that is due to my religious faith, part of it is just who I am. I don't shy away from difficult material, but I prefer not to get explicit. Honestly, when I read it in George's work, I often just cringe. I don't think it fits in prose; I think it looks tacky. But that's almost 100% due to the my religious leanings. I realize that others don't read such scenes in the same way as I do. However, I'd suggest that this is actually a minor reason why I'd be a bad writer on this series, despite having enormous respect for GRRM and his talent as a storyteller. The primary reason has to do with fundamental optimism vs pessimism. I write darkness into my books, but it is darkness as contrast to light, and there is always a spark of hope. George's work seems fundamentally pessimistic--which I don't say as a slam. One of my favorite short stories is Harrison Bergeron, which is also fundamentally pessimistic. Saying George's work is pessimistic doesn't mean that HE is pessimistic, only that he creates a work of art that evokes emotion and discussion through pessimistic themes. As a comparison, I'm glad that Silver Age science fiction produced both Harrison Bergeron and Star Trek--but I'm Star Trek, not Harrison Bergeron. Calling me in to work on this piece would be like calling in Spielberg to finish a Tarantino film. (Not to imply I deserve to be ranked with either one.) Sure, he could do it, but wouldn't you want someone who themselves makes films with Tarantino-like themes? My work is also fundamentally different from George's in our use of magic. We've talked about books, and he points out (rightly) that I often use a heavily magical component in my stories--particularly the endings. This is because I'm writing science/magic hybrids, and the idea of magic as progress is fascinating to me. George, however, prefers his magic to be arcane, unknown, and dark--not a tool, but a force you can sometimes (with great danger) apply. This is a small issue, as I'm fond of books that use magic differently, I've just made a stylistic choice in how I do what I do." Do you think this still holds?

@tomwarren I just had a thought, is this why Sony is planning on scaling back its PC games? Because then you will have an Xbox that plays your PC PlayStation games and Xbox games?

during the internal Xbox town hall Nadella never said “blank check,” but it was more the sentiment of Xbox having Microsoft’s full backing
Frank X. Shaw@fxshaw

@joe_tashune this: “Asha Sharma has my full trust and has A BLANK CHECK to revive Xbox and the trust of the fans no matter the cost” was not said.

I jinxed it and ended up adding several additional months of R&D. Here's the final result of adding HDMI to the Switch Lite. I love how there was just enough space to fit this connector. It's almost like it was made to be. SUPER5 OLED Touch + SUPER5 HDMI

18 months of R&D, just as many failed revisions, and more than $200K in costs. SUPER5 OLED HDMI is finally done. This is the first fully assembled device in the world. You can't imagine how relieved I am that it works. This was the most difficult project I've ever worked on.

@ModernVintageG Why close your dev studio that does Remasters? They always did a good job imo. They could have been working on a number of remasters people want to see right now including Bloodbourne.

Just sad news today hearing about Bluepoint Games closing. I feel for my friends who worked there. They produced best-in-class remasters and remakes that made videogames better. Under Sony they were mismanaged and released nothing. Set up for failure. What a waste.

@saiya_ran You are on the money, The Switch 2 is a tablet with controllers and a dock. To do the same thing with a PS5 you need the console and a portal. If you want the ultimate graphics you get the PS5 Pro and the portal and you still can’t go out with the portal and have a good time.

Brandon disse que ficou com o coração partido ao recusar o pedido de Henry, mas não descarta a possibilidade de trabalhar com o ator no futuro. O que vocês acham? O ator se encaixa bem com algum personagem do Cosmere?

@Wario64 I was able to grab Pragmata and DQ7R for Switch 2. They were 45.00 each. After taxes I paid 98.08. That’s pretty good for two new games.
