load times was actually one of the things i wanted the most.  

Just playing borderlands 3.  Which i fell off of, you can farm a boss so much faster since you just load and go.  Same for me jumping back into Valhalla.  

Astros Playroom may be a tech demo, but it is charming as fuck.  Not having load times is great.  If you have a ps4 non pro....it is a great upgrade.  RE8 looks pretty damn nice running with no load times.  From homescreen to playing, cold start is like 3 seconds.

I mean what is Scheider going to say?  If he blames corp or says it was their decision...he might be shown the door.  hard to do at a company you built into what it is.  Also, at his age...what is he going to do start again?  Anyone who thinks this is a cut and dry issue...corporations arent democracies...and for the…

I never considered her a slut for the sex tape.  I considered her a moron because of how she presented herself.  Wealthy heiress handed the world as a kid who partied in the public eye while laughing at all the poors who watched her.  She shouldnt be slut shamed, she should be mocked for the horrible image she has put…

I got back into d3 a while back, problem is all my friends quit....finding groups to run up to 70 is painful.  Like people dont understand that you need to rush up to 70, anything lower than that is a waste (unless you want to play the story mode, in which case go on its great) of time.  You rush to 70 so you can stop…

FF7 Remake is a J ass JRPG.  Even Remake is still just indicative of where anime was in the 90s too.  

Just got a copy of Mile Morales, probably some of that.  Still working on Days Gone.  Didnt see an Alpha invite.  O well.

The US government makes money of student loans.  That is sickening.  They should allow all outstanding student loan debt to be refinanced at the federal funds rate at the very least.  Plenty of people have 7 or 8% interest rates and cant consolidate or refinance because the US Government has more forgiving terms if…

we bailed out banks, airlines, autocompanies, airlines again, farmers based on our own fucking trade policy (thanks trump).  We subsidize farmers for crop insurance.  We subsidize people living in flood zones along the mississippi and hurricane zones along the gulf coast.  We give more money in federal grants to Ivy…

It is a problem particularly acutely for the us. It is why we couldn't get toilet paper in april.  We are absolutely unable to deal with swings in demand. We have no redundancy built into the system.  We could never get into a war that shut down transpacific trade. We would have shortages right and left. We continue…

I mean there was. We just rebounded insanely quickly.  We could also get one in a year. Recessions trigger, then you get a dead cat bounce and it hit later.  The housing market crashed in 2007, but it wasn't till fall 2008 that lehmann collapsed.  We emerged from recession in March 2009 on paper, but employment took…

Perhaps. Im sure that is a factor, but its also a numbers factor. There werent enough Gen Xers complaining about it period. You always need a mass to have a problem before anyone does anything. The fact that there is even a discussion of student loan forgiveness is because a bunch of white kids have debt, that part I…

yeah.  My guess is it started out as one thing and this is what it became.  People can say they arent thinking of games as a service.  But we all know they are thinking about dlc and other content.

Feels like a missed opportunity to just ape diablo and mix in the character creation and skill trees from D&D.  Instead of games as a service, which honestly, for a D&D game cloning destiny wouldnt be the worst thing.  What they should be doing is taking D&D or Forgotten Realms, building an action rpg engine, letting…

but not for most gamers who have no idea.  I would have been fine with this being a adaptation of the Icewind dale trilogy and the follow ups.  But they say no micro transactions, but they clearly have dlc modules planned that are seasons in all but name.  

Looks fun...but seems like this shouldnt be called dark alliance. Now a lot of people are going to keep holding out for an actual Baldurs Gate Dark Alliance III.  But i dont see that happening.

Agreed. Though part of that Gen X is a smaller generation than Millennials. Its not even close. The debt burden on Gen X is also much higher on average. Now I dont know what that looks like for black and brown, but i would guess black and brown millennials have it worse that black and brown gen xers. Just…

I always take for granted how they improved things on the nes and snes generations. I mean the NES launched in Japan in 1983 and SNES in 90 (though the PC Engine was starting to eat their lunch before the SNES came out). The reason they did the disk system and had to put chips into the carts was to expand…

The last 2 are right, all the others are wrong.
