Saw Game Loader thread there, so I randomly decided to show my own crap I've made my own quite some time ago. I'd open the source, but it's in Delphi and, also, a complete hacked together sh*te - stock components alone make over 9000% overhead when drawing. And, of course, all information must be entered by hand, pictures edited by hand, because I got bored as soon as it worked enough for me.
Main screen:
Edit screen:
It also plays title theme (or anything really), which is extremely annoying and can't be turned off. And it's slow (relatively), because it loads the whole flat file database (approx. 200 MB for me) in memory when launched and also saves it when closing. Talk about totally fscked up design. My hard disk loves me... not. That said, itself it weighs 825KB and the required bass.dll weighs 112 more. No runtime components needed.
It also fails to run FOSE (as in - it launches, but FOSE fails afterwards - it doesn't otherwise), for some reason I couldn't figure out.
I think you will find it has been well documented across multiple media platforms the many reasons for the fall of destiny which supports the reasons i give above, my opinion is that is what caused the most damage to the company as they stopped being a gaming company and pushed a political narrative, look how damaging the dei road was for bud light, stocks crashed multiple resignations and job losses over a box ticking exercise, when decisions are made not to better something but to instead box tick and deliver something that the vast majority didnt ask for then you will get kick back and it normally has a massive financial impact
I did that to a work colleague many years ago when he left it logged in. Unfortunately I was out of the office the next day, and even the IT department was stumped lol. Got a bit of a bollocking when I got back into the office, but, by god, it was worth it.
