Gonna lump in on this one too. PCs have, for a long, long time, been able to last for a good while with only incremental upgrades. If you buy a decent prebuilt and have the know how to replace your own GPU (One of the easier upgrades to make), you can usually make a system last for a long, long while.

Almost never. The N64, Wii, and Switch are the only consoles I’ve ever gotten within a year of release.

Realistically, it’s a little of column A and a little of column B. I have seen a lot lot loooot of people parroting that detail up above.

Its fucking maddening how much the idea of “purity tests” have made it into armchair diagnosticians (Yes, I know, not a real thing) from politics.

This is very, very easy for any of us to say by virtue of our privileges, but let’s be frank here: if this individual is working as a cashier, they’re not going to be able to just “find a new job.”

Depressingly enough, it depends on what state you’re in. Here in MA, there is a call in line to report a business, but we’re on the comparatively extreme end of precautions.

This... actually looks kind of ballin’?

Or, and hear me out here cause this is Occam’s Razor: It’s an arbitrary rationale that was imagined by the fanbase rather than any actual rule that Nintendo is somehow beholden to.

But the point is ff7 has been on a nintendo platform, that being the switch. If it hadn’t, cloud would not have been included in smash at all.

I play FFXIV and I went on a lengthy rant the other day about how I want the next expansion’s themed raid to be SMRPG and that I would sacrifice each and every one of them for an Axem Rangers raid boss fight.

I’m pretty sure that applies to Cloud too, though. I don’t think he’d ever been in a Nintendo release to that point (I think Switch is the first time VII came to a Nintendo platform).

Same, that was where I was going. I saw the headline and went to Twitter to verify because this addition is both the most ludicrous thing I’ve ever seen and also the most logical addition they’ve ever made in equal measure.

The expectations have gone through the roof every time too. This one’s going to make a lot of people happy, though I admittedly could not give less of a shit (I have never played Minecraft, myself).

I get the impression this broke Twitter.

Fantastic Beasts is like the ultimate in “give us so much money for problematic people” shrugging. Like, I get to see a bad movie AND the proceeds go to Johnny Depp and JK Rowling? Where can I sign up?!

God forbid people not be fucking copyright lawyers who are intimately aware of the minutae of every licensing deal out there. It’s a sincere question that many, many people are going to be ignorant of the answer to.

How in the fuck does that question not coincide with your purity test, though?

Short answer from someone who was not asked:

I also have the right to not buy any Warner Bros. Games anymore.

For what it’s worth, from someone who, by and large, leveled my crafters simultaneously:
