  • It’s because most big games are made live service to sell as much extra bullshit as possible over it’s “profitable” lifetime. They don’t want people just “cheating” in the bonus cosmetics or making modifications.

    It’s completely unnecessary because if it’s server authoritative, then people will still buy cosmetics to have on the server side so other people can see them (more people seem to care about this than seeing their own cosmetics). If people want client only cosmetics, what’s the big deal?

    • A videotape, which was a recording of the live ceremony, shot by a girl named Vicky who stood onstage to operate the Kid Cam
    • The camera recording the tape, which appears to have been unplanned—Mike O’Malley and Joey Lawrence both looked baffled about how to remove the tape from the camera, so the whole setup was tossed in at the last minute

    I think 2042 might still be too early to open it, but it will be nice for anyone there to watch it be opened, if they care!
