oh god I have a moronic pajeet doctor im pretty sure im going to die
Last time I went to one he declared my other doctors incompetent and immediately wanted to perform major surgery that would have probably left me incontinent. Issue resolved itself like everyone else said. Never again.
That hard yakka will have you buggered, that's for drongos and bogans. I'll be down skullin' a tinny and playin' two up while pashin' the sheilas. She'll be right. Beaut.
Yeah nah frick that for a joke, if I'm gettin a hard-earned thirst it's not gonna be from any of that computer boffin stuff, I'm gonna get it walking and talking.
Matter of fact...
Hopefully you know because this has been pissing me off for about 6 years now: Who was in the ad for holeproof socks where he was running along dirt roads and a guy he overtook catches up while he's hosing the dirt off his socks. He pulls a bindi out and says "gotcha, ya little bugger". They got someone kinda famous to do it and I can't remember who or find the ad

Frick that one's too obscure for me too. I was old enough at the time to remember these ads but not in that sort of detail. Like I remember the Solo ads in the kayak but not enough to tell you what the guy looked like without finding it on Youtube. Or the Big M ad going down her cleavage. Couldn't even tell you her hair colour.
God i really wanted to play lost ark and just chill with it but how can Amazon not give us OCE servers shit sucks man 200+ ping its unplayable meanwhile xiv gets em
All the screeching about Australia during Covid was overblown. One, it was almost always the communist republic of Victoria doing the moronic shit, which is like a sport obsessed California with a massive inferiority complex we all hate. Two, the shit about drones hunting people in the UK was so much worse.
Whole thing was a psyop to shit on Australia because we make Americans look like lunatics.
me too, people screeching about the lockdowns are moronic, they were ultra comfy and much needed wakeup call that australia is totally fricked economically
it's the vax they should have been screeching about, but they just... all rolled up their sleeves
oh well rip
>Whole thing was a psyop to shit on Australia
Might have just been spiteful kiwis. There's no denying that cops overreacted to protesters though. That's was mainly in Melbourne which is a good point you brought up, you're right about that. Victoria doesn't really reflect the rest of Australia, despite the fact that i live here i have mates who were saying their states did not really care about all the strict measures. While here Dandrews was the one overreacting.
the funniest part of that statue is that Jeff Kennett said he was going to build one after he won the next election (which he then lost) and he's had a face like a smacked arse since
Best part was NSW had almost no cases for something like 18 months. Victoria had tens of thousands because their quarantine was run by street shitters and was completely corrupt. The fricking joke of an inquiry they had literally found no one made all the bad decisions, they just suddenly appeared one day.
No one cares to create a psyop for Australia. No one thinks about you. America is the country people care about, maybe you should consider that the psyops are made about us. Not to mention you're becoming more and more culturally identical to us as the years go on.
>America is the country people care about
If by "care" you mean laugh at, sure. Given the fact you gays are nothing without the Ching Chong Wong Dong country and currently killing yourselves over police brutalities.
It was thing with influencers and bloggers at the time asking why the US couldn't be more like Australia where traffic stops don't constantly result in fatalities. A lot of them were also moving out here to get away from America.
Pandemic Studios was a co American-Australian studio. Everything the American office was working on was also coordinated with their Australian studio. Similar story with Bioshock being co-developed with 2K Australia. Similar story with Visceral games, but i can't say how influential that satellite studio was on that whole game because there was about 21 jobs at that one. Only game that was only truly independent was LA Noire. Medieval II: Total War was developed by the Australian branch of Creative Assembly, etc.
I'd play that. Only dev i know of making survival horror is from melbo, the game is called Conscript. The demo for the game is great, but when devs from here don't think to make games set in Australia i think they're missing out on doing something unique and not done often in video games. Actually going out to places and takes photos and whatnot, there's plenty of games that could visually distinct if they actually did that. Including in the rural parts of Aus.
If you like indie shit there's currently a sale for Melbourne/Victorian developers developers up on steam right now.
https://store.steampowered.com/sale/migw2023
Surprisingly Devil Daggers or Hyper Demon aren't on it. Maybe it's people who were vic gov grant recipients? who knows. But there's that.
>Wow, these are all awful shovelware mobile shit.
Out of all of these I'd say Broken Roads and Conscript might be the only promising looking indie games coming out of Victoria. I'm still holding my judgement for Broken Roads because it's pretty easy to make a bad RPG. Try out the Conscript demo at least, because that one left a good impression on me. If you liked games like Devil Daggers then killbug may be worth giving a shot.
Here's an upcoming game i found from Melbourne that could either be good or bad, there's not much to go on right now because no demo available. If you're into the whole retro FPS revival then it might be worth keeping an eye on. For what it's worth when comparing it to the others, at least the developer programmed his own engine, which includes full modding tools and level editing. So it's not just another unity retro FPS #10000 guess if you care about when developers actually know how to create games from scratch with relying on a crutch. Can't say whether it will be good and it looks pretty janky, but there's that.
Government hates videogames and the investment market here is ridiculously property heavy.
There is very little business investment happening in Australia. Property is all there is and most of the time the government just kicks that problem down the road.
>a bloo a bloo da goberment!!!
Australia rarely makes AAA games because there's a strong union here that takes workplace exploitation seriously. You can't get away with the crunch or abuse commonly found in the industry.
Gee I'm sorry I didn't list every single contributing problem as to why Australia doesnt make many videogames.
I thought just contributing one point to the threead was good enough.
Project your inferiority complex on somebody else
>Gee I'm sorry I didn't list every single contributing problem as to why Australia doesnt make many videogames.
Because there is literally only one reason. Worker explotation being heavily monitored makes it an unprofitable business model.
>You can't get away with the crunch or abuse commonly found in the industry.
Having worked in a VFX studio, I have first hand experience that you CAN get away with it.
Thank frick I wasn't one of the artists, It was a comfy job.
>Australia rarely makes AAA games because there's a strong union here that takes workplace exploitation seriously
All AAA the studios just got shitcanned because they were expendable, 2K Australia got pretty badly exploited supposedly which led to the end of them. Only one major studio that just ran into truly bad luck was Pandemic Studios, that story is history now. That being said there's still Riot Games Sydney (formerly Wargaming Sydney Studio) and Sledegehammer Games Melbourne. Those are the only remnants of AAA left in this country, unsure of their importance as satellite studios, don't give a frick about both of those companies.
>DICE/EA Melbourne.
Didn't know about EA’s FireMonkeys Studio. Did that studio have any crossover with the older Visceral Melbourne? that was an old one that got axed. Pretty sure they had done some work on some of the Dead Space stuff
>Government hates videogames
not quite
https://www.theguardian.com/games/2023/mar/06/finally-australia-sees-video-games-are-important-but-it-cant-be-only-because-they-make-money
but the reason australia doesn't make anything at all is because it simply costs too much due to cost of living and minimum wage
you could hire 200 pajeet devs instead of 1 aussie

Yes, but you won't like the answer. During world war, house prices are going to be dirt cheap because whatever you buy could be destroyed tomorrow. The closer are you to a warzone, the cheaper the housing price will be.
world war please, the risk of getting blown up is fine i just want to be able to buy a cheap place so i can retire and neet it up sooner than my fricking 60s

>Indians are the youngest average age (34 years) and the fastest growing community both in terms of absolute numbers and percentages in Australia.[5]

Frick it’s funny seeing what I can actually confess are good looking Indian guys(well built, maintained and socialised) with lower tier white women.
I dunno if it's just me but Indian chicks seem to have bigger breasts than other races around here. I've seen some huge sets of knockers and they weren't even fat
They love white wiener, I can confirm
If you think you can escape them by moving to a rural area, trust me you can't. These "people" are EVERYWHERE.

Blame your kin who drive around our towns going door to door trying to sell solar panel/insulation scams.
And your doctors. Your terrible, terrible doctors.
oh god I have a moronic pajeet doctor im pretty sure im going to die
>Lachlan can't afford real doctors so he has to go to the DESIgnated street doctor
Funnily enough, best dentist I ever had was Indian. Born in Britain though, key difference. If you hear a subcontinent accent, run.
The worst Aussie is equal to the best pajeet. You lost.
Im in Newfoundland and they're even here but in the rest of Canada no one has a house because of them
Wtf is going on? Its so bad even our reddit has everyone hating immigrants
Normal people will say that house can have 4 people living in it. An Indian will stuff said house with 30 mattresses and make a fortune off other Indians.
Last time I went to one he declared my other doctors incompetent and immediately wanted to perform major surgery that would have probably left me incontinent. Issue resolved itself like everyone else said. Never again.

I liked when he told victorians they couldn't take off their mask to drink a beer
ultimate troll
and it's even funnier that they're gonna build a statue for him cause he's been running them for so long
The very best was his little medical advisor getting told to frick off from a pub because there was already the 10 or whatever patrons allowed inside
the funniest part of that statue is that Jeff Kennett said he was going to build one after he won the next election (which he then lost) and he's had a face like a smacked arse since
all the crazy shit was from melb
genuinely didn't seem like reality to me, it was quite lax here in nsw
Best part was NSW had almost no cases for something like 18 months. Victoria had tens of thousands because their quarantine was run by street shitters and was completely corrupt. The fricking joke of an inquiry they had literally found no one made all the bad decisions, they just suddenly appeared one day.
It was lax in rural Victoria
No. NT were fining essential workers who didn't get jabbed

Check back in 4 years or so once I'm done with my survival horror game set in rural QLD.
I'd play that. Only dev i know of making survival horror is from melbo, the game is called Conscript.
