Can you imagine that modders have done a better job with the game than the owner of the IP?

It only happens... EVERY SINGLE TIME! 😅

How did I miss this game? Is it still in development after Annapurna collapse?

Also, it's called Mixtape and they have a CD as their logo and cover art. CD with Mixtape written on it.

It appeared that any model in CS2 can be replaced with any other model, which made the game unplayable on public servers.

Not playing it (and never liked CSGO/CS2), so can't say much. According to ones who do, the issue has been patched out in a matter of days.

The legendary Captain Blood pirate slasher, announced over 20 years ago, will be released on May 6!

The game has been fully developed over 15 years ago, then lost during failed negotiations of involved parties, rediscovered a few years ago in a playable state, and finalized during the last couple of years.

If the release happens, it will be one of the longest game development processes in history. Longer than Prey, Duke Nukem Forever, and even STALKER 2 (that wasn't even the same game).

Dragon Age The Veilguard has been a failure, now it's official: EA announced that only 1.5 million people played the game, which is twice lower than expected.

⚠️ And those ARE NOT SALES: the game has been in several subscription offers.

EA Sports FC 25 is also not doing great. Altogether those games caused worse than expected financial results for the last quarter of 2024:

According to the reviews, HotSpot Sensor on NVIDIA RTX 5090 wasn't working (showing consistent 255, which is the maximum number for this type of variables).

It's crucial to know this temperature — it can be significantly higher than average after 2-3 years of usage and raising difference can help in malfunction detection.

By this sensor I detected that my 3060 Ti required thermal paste replacement half a year ago (while the average was fairly low, the HotSpot reached 104).

It's possible that 5090 doesn't have this sensor at all or it has been deactivated by NVIDIA for some reason. GPUZ creators said that this sensor is fully removed from all RTX50 cards.
