I don’t even want to play this game, but this just feels like Sony punishing me for not giving into scalpers.

Yeah since apparently side plates, or whatever theyre called, are easy to make. I’m hoping somoene makes some that are less silly looking with a sturdy base built in instead of needing the stand.

I think it would be fine if the game actually treated us like we are, ala FFXIV. But instead we get lip service to it and all the other characters are the real heroes.

I think you’re underestimating the power of seeming ‘real’ when it comes to forming parasocial relationships like the kind content creators need to succeed.

Man I can’t stand Arc System Works fighting game style, but I pretty consistently wish I could because their character design is top notch.

I bought Pikmin 3 when I got a Wii U but was playing Splatoon at the time and never got around to it. Loved the previous titles (in spite of being a tester for the Wii ports, which generally kills enthusiasm for most games) and so I’d probably like it. With my Wii U in storage after a move 2 years ago I can’t imagine…

Greatest nugget of wisdom in the entire block quote (because it happens every time I go back to old games or play a Japanese version):

I’m really starting to hate the word “justified”

NGL this is the second time this week this music post has gotten me excited and then tore me down when I realized what it was. The Ar Tonelico series was fantastic in my book and I’d like to see it remade/rereleased (with the glitches introduced in the translations fixed) and Lunar was big for my high school years.

To stop bots and scalpers on the NVIDIA store, we’re doing everything humanly possible, including manually reviewing orders, to get these cards in the hands of legitimate customers.

Demons souls, but also: my ps4 is slowly dying. The games are loading noticeably slower and the USB ports seem to blink on and off. With how backwards compat is looking I have no reason not to upgrade asap.

Your optimism about him giving a single fuck about being viewed as a hypocrite would be adorable if this wasn’t such a sick situation.

I’ve spent more this year on novels than I would have (hopefully still might) on a PS5. Finally getting over avoiding e-readers has really caused my reading amount to increase.

They have, there’s a few articles around about it, Gizmodo has one that lists the text of the email.

The tentacle nipple really bothers me.

I mean story wise sure, but he’s only producing not directing here, and what we saw gameplay wise it looked like a flashier 15 to me. I just don’t trust SE to make the gameplay that I felt was boring as hell any good.

I mean I always hope to be wrong. I imagine I’ll pick it up used at some point (discless will never be for me) but I won’t pay for it in a way that adds my number to the metrics.

Never did end up liking 15 so 16 doesn’t look worth buying for me.

The weird thing is they’re usually pretty knowledgeable and fair in their posts from what I remember of them. This seems like an odd hill to die on for such a widely known issue. (The foreigners that act surprised every time that the US hasn’t suddenly magically fixed it in the middle of an administration like ours…

Oh I’m definitely not arguing with your point. I agree 100%. I dread visiting my parents because they had, until recently, 9mbps. They’ve just jumped up to “almost triple”, with 24mbps and I couldn’t even find it in me to tell my dad that was still less than the standard set to be considered broadband.
