The article itself admits that it's hinged on two "substantial what if's"

Just be patient and wait until more information comes out.

Ah I should have checked that, yeah. That will bump up the average by quite a bit. Thanks for the logic to my conspiracies, I should have known better

Let's see what the suit will actually be about (which patent) and then judge accordingly

My Asus laptop draws (a maximum of) 200W as far as I can tell.

This is not my model but here's the tech sheet for a different one: https://www.asus.com/laptops/for-gaming/tuf-gaming/asus-tuf-gaming-a14-2024/techspec/

It's only 30 people that have pledged the $14,670. This almost averages to $500 per backer, which is a lot higher than the global average.

My theory? They are arranging the pledges themselves to make it look like they are desired.

That's returning it to the seller. In your country there's implied warranty from the manufacturer and they will have to honor your claims if it is showing defects

Can you not claim warranty / do an RMA?

Technically you can just get it from the website, no need to install the client.

I would argue that the radio tower stuff bleeding in from Assassins Creed already messed up the formula that Far Cry 2 was building on. I do admit Far Cry 3 had some cool points, but overall it's where in my view the series took a step in the wrong direction.

Latter titles doubled down on making combat less meaningful, exploration just like any other Ubi title, and realistic animations, AI and physics thrown out the window in favor of cheap mechanics

Like, in Far Cry 2 enemies would try to heal their wounded or mercy kill them, in Far Cry 5 a baddie hover his hands above a body to revive their mate.

It's a demo. If you hit the "learn more" button above it, the same link is posted under the button "download demo"

Oh my bad. I thought the low quality was just the visuals, not the content. Carry on!

I started a free trial and cancelled it immediately to have no ads while on holiday. Didn't realize they are offering some illusion of achievements as a "reward" for your attention, doubling as a FOMO weapon for when you want to quit.
