“A stirring and inspirational testimonial in favor of the raw power of apathy today, as Netflix revealed that, for the most part, customers just sort of rolled over...”

I can understand arguing in favor of, for example, allowing a child going off to college to share a password without additional charge to the account, but the general vibe I get from these articles is “how dare they crack down on any password sharing with anyone??!?” Netflix is a huge corporation driven by the…

“Sure, the game doesn’t sit with the implications of that very long, but you do.”

The fact you put New Super Mario Bros. DS near the bottom of the list tells me I don’t need to read the rest of it. I loved that game when it came out and I still do.

So you’re saying that disagreeing with someone’s opinion on video games, and sharing said disagreement, is worse than physical assault and verbal abuse? You’re literally telling this person they’re terrible because they shared their opinion about someone else’s opinion. And you essentially advocated physical violence. …

“20 Best Films of All Time — Ranked By An Expert Jury”

How did far cry 4 make the list over, say, link to the past? as the list says, “any game where you can hang-glide over a waterfall is fine by me”. and you know what? they’re right! that ruled! and if that makes it one of their favourite games of all time, then it deserves a spot on their list.

I can’t believe I’m having to say this in 2023, I thought we had collectively gotten past this, but since we clearly haven’t let me spell it out clearly: this is their list.

Yeah I kind of feel this way with Dead Cells. I’ve been playing that game off and on for years, probably sunk hundreds of hours into it. But when they announced this new Castelvania partnership as another expansion and not a standalone thing I was kind of bummed.

The “infinite update” mentality is exactly why we don’t have things like Stardew Valley 2 or Terraria 2. I’ve said this before and most people slam me for it and say I should just play the new content for those games. But the reality is I don’t want to. I beat Terraria four times. I don’t want to play that game…

I feel the MMO genre would be so much better and would have advanced a lot more if they were designed less with the focus of endless grind. It may have helped solidify fanbases years ago, but players not wanting to move on to new things (because the old ones never stop updating) is exactly why most new MMOs have just…

I think one of the things that isn’t being mentioned here that’s at least worth considering is that Brawl Stars gave out such easily earned boxes (and infinitely earnable boxes, essentially) that most of the regular players actually had dozens of even hundreds of stacked up loot boxes but had all the rewards, because…

How are you any different with your “dude”?

I don't know if I could disagree more with a list.  Felicity and Sara shouldn't even be on this list.  Diggle and Slade Wilson should be way higher.  Laurel should be somewhere.  Nora Dahrk too.  And Ray Palmer should be top five.  Leonard Snart as well.  And just too many other changes...

That’s not at all what I said and it isn’t at all the implication. This person is saying “where is the money going” like they’re paying insane fees and getting nothing in return. It’s like going to McDonald’s and buying a Sausage McMuffin breakfast sandwich for $1.19 and demanding to know where the money is going like…

No, it’s not. You’re misunderstanding the value completely. It’s true that a $140 expenditure will get you the $15 off, but $7 of that $140 is money that’s giving you nothing except paying into the value of the $15 savings. The $200 is all going to actual products from PF Chang’s. You’re spending an additional $6.99…

You shit yourself not? You replied to your own message.

That hasn’t been my experience. They stand there with your meat & cheese on bread, then they look you in the eye and say “Mike’s way?”  Then you can say “No, just lettuce and oil” or whatever. Maybe your local franchise does it differently?

Nugwisokami already explained the obvious, so I won’t reiterate that, but.. it’s also a business. Where is the money going? To the people providing the service. What do you expect, that that they do all of this for free? They even do have a free viewing tier, which is increasingly less common with streaming services…

Nobody is twisting your greasy ham hock behind your back to play indie games, last time anyone checked.
