I kicked soda, mostly. Unsugared seltzer with a splash of cranberry-blueberry juice. Spindrifts aren’t bad.

I couldn’t even hate-watch Cats, Detested it since the early 80's. My wife turned the “new” one on in the background and all I could feel was pity.

I’m torn... Bought on PC, (decent but needs a new vid card, Dang..)

**Twitch**

No MGS to force purchase... Ghost of Tsushima not quite enough to tip the scales. GoW was good, but not “buy an entire console” good.

A bit late, Missed the AV club posting, but Ernie used to run around a bit with my Father in Law, Bill,  long before either of them met my Dad. Small world having My dad and Bill meet up and realize their connection. 

Ernie was my Uncle by way of being one of my father’s musical mentors, and decades before that, one of my father in law’s good friends. ( Dad played the bass from the 60's onward, FiL a Sax man, born in the 20's. it’s amazing how small the musical community can be)

There were times in my youth that I’d stand outside of a Gamestop to get each generation of Playstation on release, or wait excitedly for their doors to open for a new game back when I still pre-ordered.

Where’s the Glico man?

If there’s a choice, I’ve just seen, (and experienced first hand) too much evil in the world to even pretend at it in a game, and still feel good about it.

Not shallow at all, some art styles are completely unwatchable and it’s entirely up to the viewer to determine if Art appeals to them.

They removed self damage a little while back too, just knocks you down.  Can throw your concealed explosive stars as much as you like now. 

I came to Warframe from 10 years in Eve Online and didn’t figure out the Operator system properly until I was nearing MR 20.

Haven’t tried the switch version in a few months, it works, and DE is doing their best. PC , the PS/Xbox  are pretty decent if you’re in for the long haul. 

Not exactly “common” knowledge, but thoroughly used by players, and since 2019 Tennocon, advertised openly by DE. Easy enough to miss though.

Also, separately from the discussion OF the Operators. DE is making them even MORE important to the story. Here is the trailer for the Duviri Paradox.

The Glaive and I believe the Lex pistol in Warframe are nods to Dark Sector. It’s been a long time

Simaris sells the traps, usually you just hotkey them, clear the area, lock the mob down and scan, then drop more traps as they escape. there are mods to speed up, increase scans too. (the process does suck at the start)

That’s pretty much it, the Mods are the real power, the weapons just the tools to use them.

A creature of terrifying beauty.
