Yeah I was going to mention the parallel to cryptocurrency but felt it was a redundant point. So many people that aren’t putting any effort in or understanding of what they are getting into are going to lose their shirts.

Yep. This is a constant that people expect money without any effort.
It is really bad right now with Pokemon cards. Every so often some shitty clickbait website runs a listicle on how YOUR POKEMON CARDS COULD BE WORTH THOUSANDS!!! and we inevitably get a couple dozen people over a few weeks coming in with…

As someone that runs events and manages the gaming side of a LGS, I would welcome the removal of the reserved list.

There is nothing more annoying than amateur investors. The ones that play the game and think they are going to get 200% value out of their played cards that they invested a whole $100 into. Oh and all…

Agreed, a purple lightsaber would be appropriate since usually (Prequels excused, since there wasn’t any rhyme or reason to the colors explained) blue = light, red = dark. Yes there is EU reasoning for the colors, and synthetic crystals vs naturally grown ones...but it also has a thematic element of good vs evil.

Battlefront II’s space maps in multiplayer are spectacular. They are exactly what I have been waiting for since X-Wing. I like the fact that they have multiple objectives that keep people moving rather than circling for pks.

I also would assume she didn’t know if it would work effectively. It was a last-ditch one shot effort.

While I agree with this sign, the same ramp sign guy also had “FINAL FANTASY 8 SUCKS” so I have to hate him/her forever.

I think you hit it on the head. It is showing the grey that we know exists in the real world.
It is no longer “Good guy Jedi” vs super evil “Sith”, War is hell. War never changes, there are no winners, some just lose less.

It shows all these people that are not actually good or evil but they profit off war in some…

I think it was done to show Luke in a different light. He is now the “Crazy old hermit” that Ben Kenobi was known to be. Aside from a bit of a silly gag (And possibly show the origin of blue milk) it is to show us Luke has really left the reality and conflicts we know to be the rest of the galaxy.

Agreed completely.

I went in open minded and only one scene took me out of the film: When all the main resistance characters boarded the same shuttle.
The other shuttles being picked off like nothing and the one with multiple named characters magically survives took the suspense out of the sequence for me.

We all went…

That sounds very reasonable and I would assume that isn’t terribly difficult to implement.

If someone is going through a mental health crisis, unqualified streamers assisting them seems like something that should be outright disallowed by Twitch.
As it said in the article, these people are not trained to handle these situations. Most of them are just people playing video games and chatting for…

I understand that but I am wondering what games this is done in. Most games I know of beyond CS: Go and I have been told PUBG as well don’t have features that could be traded for gambling purposes.
Is there some kid-friendly roblox-like or something I am completely unaware of or is it pretty much confined to CS: Go…

Yeah I remember those back in the day, same with EQ2. I guess I just didn’t think it was a prevalent occurrence in gaming these days, especially something as young as 11 year-olds would encounter.

I know that CS:GO’s betting is done through a third party site, but I was just trying to think of any other games that you…

What games allow some kind of skin/item gambling beyond CS: GO?

We are living with some close friends that also have a child, (ours 10, theirs 5) and we have dedicated a small room for playing with toys, no video games in there, and we rotate the toys every so often. Over the last two month it was lego toys, now it is Hot Wheels, and they love to build cities and use whatever is…

Oh hi mark.

Servers seem better, I’ve played a few games with friends. Definitely enjoying the port as it is, taking into consideration some of the issues will be worked out in patches.

The game has significantly better performance when docked, and while 4 to 6 superstar matches are really slow, 1v1 and 3 way matches work just fine. A bit of sluggishness when in handheld mode, but I expect that to be fixed in an upcoming patch.

So far, lots of fun...servers are having issues but that is pretty common…

He has two left feet, it makes sense, he just keeps going in circles.
