This goes back to the awful diablo mobile disaster. Blizz solely wants that chinese market and has told the rest of us that we are worthless to them. This has been coming for a while and unless they are shown we are not to be taken for granted they will continue.

I know it is a futile gesture but that’s it for blizzard products for me. Their quality has been steadily decreasing over the past 6 or 7 years (whenever the hearthstone cash crab or the Diablo real money market took place) and are no longer the “can’t miss always great” company they once were.

Sorry to hear about your loss of beautiful Quimby. Thank you for making her life good and comfortable. Both of my kitties are torties and your story hit pretty close to home :(

+1, it took me a full year to finally fight the final botw boss.

100% in agreement with Gita on this. What a great game. 

I’m here to fanboy the ‘music’ boss. Music wise and sound wise that was one of the coolest boss fights I’ve ever experienced.

The bot scripts couldn’t figure out how to run away properly without the local chat to key off of so the people running the bots turned them off.

My decision to wait and see on this one keeps looking better and better... And I put hundreds of hours into each of the two previous borderlands games.  2k just can't get out of their own way.

I have a habit of quitting games... At the final boss. Not out of frustration, but out of not wanting the game (that I enjoyed enough to play to the end) to finish. I’ve done it with Mario galaxy, switch Zelda, multiple dark souls and bloodborne games and several others. horizon zero dawn is one of my favorite games…

Next big thing: Pre release microtransactions.

Wait, you think someone dedicated enough to have this many phones wouldn't already know where the gym was? 

$20 actually can set off the alarm bells. The CC companies have some pretty bonkers tracking/algo going on to monitor what you do / don’t do.

A significant portion of this entire situation is that CC companies are *profiting* off of fraud. Why on earth should they be making money when everyone else is getting screwed? CC chargebacks are the bane of all business - they get hit by the fraud and then get hit by the CC company chargeback and that’s bullshit.

There are occasionally things sold on ebay that are stolen. I’m sure of it. Same thing with craigslist and others, but nobody is leading a charge to destroy those sites. Hell, even amazon’s ‘other sellers’ has a lot of shady shit going on but that escapes the ire of the general public.

NMS is one of the best examples I know of to show how a developer should behave after they have fucked up.  So many other games have landed with a fart like the original NMS and just gotten canned.

I've been using a rat 7 for quite a few years and I'm only on my second. You have to actually maintain these, the design allows for hair and other crap to get into the important bits and that can cause issues.  Nothing some canned air and 15 min can't fix though and you're back to normal. 

The only way that tariffs work is if the infrastructure of production already exists elsewhere and can be given a competitive edge via price. When the rest of the world can’t do it it is a tax. That dumbass doesn’t understand that. Or maybe he does and just doesn’t give a shit about us. Either is plausable but I lean…

There are anti gank communities in high sec that actively defend ganked freighters with no expectations of pay. 

Robbed blind by goons, goes to work for them, gets robbed blind again twice by goons, stays with goons.

So you’re saying that George is interested in *starting* something...  No mention of *finishing*, of course.  ;-)
