You have to literally do almost nothing to earn points, assuming you have the capacity to earn them. Open a game you own which you’ve earned several achievements. Let it idle for at least 30 minutes. You’ll instantly have thousands of points. That’s all it takes.

Did you buy any games earlier this year? Apparently that’s supposed to apply only to games bought in that period.

I’ve had it explained to me very simply — if you have a large point capacity just open up the games you have which you’ve earned the most achievements. You don’t have to do anything to earn several thousand points besides let it idle in the background for at least 30 minutes.

And rape is also just surprise sex...

This is kinda cool, if not a little bit impractical for really using much. I mostly just clicked on this for the brown furniture on Youtube.

AoE 2 would be atrocious unless it had full keyboard and mouse control and I have no clue if the Xbox One does that.

The fairly standard definition of genius is mostly intellectual. Players of games do require a lot of intelligence to know how to play, but that’s not all they need.

At this point I think we just need to accept that Mother 3 is never getting a North American release. Don’t know why people still think there’s any kind of a good chance.

Didn’t Death Stranding just have a trailer released recently? No point in another that will just be online immediately anyway.

Regarding the update: He may be very good at a certain video game (which as an aside makes me wonder if he has any other hobbies) but his mom calling him a genius is extreme in any sense. Genius should be exclusively used in academic/intellectual terms.

Ok... so you can “buy” games on a streaming platform. You’re not really buying the game then, you’re buying a license to play it and if the game leaves the service you’re out of luck.

The players were the same way through most of the game.

I keep forgetting this game franchise is a thing. Back when I still owned a PS3 a few years ago I loved Infamous 2, though I never finished it. Never played any of the PS4 games. Open world games are just too time-consuming most of the time.

If The Simpsons can somehow run for over 30 years with the kids being the same age the entire time, other shows can figure something out too.

I’m not the biggest consumer of Apple news but recently heard about iTunes finally going away. I had an iPod for a few years (though never had a Mac) and didn’t really mind the software. Looking back on it now though, the idea that you had to basically use a proprietary piece of software to use an iPod is absurd.

The British version of The Office is absolutely superior. The American version is also very good, once it breaks free from the original. When Steve Carell left in the 12th season (or whatever, I’m exaggerating a bit) it should have ended.

I’m a big football fan. The halftime show was just one of a few things that nearly made me swear off the sport.

As someone in Utah, their names are absolutely normal. You’ve not seen weird Utah names. I personally know people named Tage and Kru.

While they mention FIFA, they don’t mention Madden. For better or worse, this will kill it, which will not only affect EA. It will also affect the streamers and professional players. It’s like banning the actual NFL draft.

He said himself he’s targetting young people. If he were really interested in helping others he’d be talking to people of all ages. Older people may not listen, but it sounds like he doesn’t even care. He wants an easy “win” -- a win which is toxic to the audience for only getting his single perspective.
