well there’s no doubt Gamestop is a terrible company, and has been for quite some time. But that’s a completely separate issue from someone saying they are still a customer of theirs for some reason and writing an extremely longwinded article whining endlessly about how a business has perfectly sensible practices to…

This also means the maximum you can discount a single transaction online is $34. That’s one $15 coupon, one $10 coupon, one $5 coupon, and one $1 coupon. Lol. Lmao even.

It kind of undercuts the bit if you completely fail to predict them though.

No, he’s exactly as he appears here. I’ve had a run in with him before and this is what he does. He’ll say something completely stupid and then when you point out his stupidity he starts trying to spin what he said as something intellectual you just didn’t understand because he himself is so far above the whimsy of…

lol a dumb fuck trying to weasel out of their idiot take by claiming it was ironic?

You think a bunch of no money indie games are committing fraud to sponsor their games that will probably make a couple dozen thousand dollars each? Are you truly, TRULY that fucking clueless about how literally anything works?

As is now traditional (these features have been going for three years now!), these games are selected at random from the hundreds of emails I’ve received after appealing for suggestions. Unless I say otherwise, I’ve not played the games, and as such can’t vouch for them, not least because most have yet to be released.

You got Deck Builder, so that’s like, one in ten. Good job embarrassing yourself.

okay that wasn’t just me.  Nothing carries over?  THere’s so much to unlock to make your runs better.   

I don’t think I have played a deck builder that comes close to “getting it” the way that Slay the Spire did. They just never seem to be as tight mechanically or their settings aren’t as interesting. It still feels like the best of the genre despite hundreds of deck builders being made afterwards.

I mean, no insult but you definitely didn’t get Slay the Spire, it’s one of the greatest games made in the last decade, and that’s not overstatement or hyperbole. It’s notable too that a lot of non-gamers or casual gamers got it, whereas a handful of “real gamers” totally did not - not at all saying you’re the latter…

Some other good games that released this year (or close enough) but received little to no media coverage:

In other words, in the “recurring stuff” aspect, it’s actually truer to Rogue and NetHack than most roguelikes.

Also “to combing through thrift stores for long-lost treasures (which is how we found my fiance a 1970s-era Yves Saint Laurent military trench for $150 in Italy).”

“Just normal frog stuff, Arden. Jesus, get off my back!”

Really enjoying the walk back from “gamedevs are all fuckin’ uncool dorks” to “it’s all good, be yourself, we’re just havin’ fun here!”

Perfectly put, Arden. There’s no suggestion that anyone is lying at all, nor any reason to think they might be.

He didn’t say they were lying about the incident *being* an error. He is asking for more clarification on the *nature* of the error. Probably something like: Was this a new feature being tested that got leaked? How did it come about that timely, live advertisements are tied to in-game button presses? What about…

Do not taunt Steam Deck either

This is clearly a design failure from Valve, proper cooling could have prevented this tragedy, better lawyer up.
