Yup, my son runs into the unable to install issue frequently. And I have endless issues getting controllers to actually work with gamepass games.

The polygonal characters look pretty close, but everything else would have brought a PS1 to its knees. Maybe like... Early ps2 game

He wasn't missing the joke, he was discussing the same topic

Nobody could convince me that most execs do anything at all on a day-to-day basis anyways. It's probably always elden ring day for them

Right?! And this whining about a lame exotic armor piece that at least suggests an entirely different way to play the class? Trying to think of the last warlock exotic armor piece that was even half as interesting. I've been swapping between the same 3 exotic armor pieces for years now as a warlock because the rest…

It’s like you made up a game in your head to be mad at. Nothing you just said has anything to do with reality and yet you're like... Furious about it. You've got issues man.

Kotaku pushed that piece of shit so hard, the site turned into a giant hemorrhoid

Yeah, definitely. There are so many games coming out at any given time that I forget about 75% of them by the time I even get to the point where I’m saying “ok, I have time to buy something new to play!” It’s definitely not something I could have ever imagined growing up with my NES, but here we are. We’re making too…

Jesus, so many parents straight up lying to their kids. And with stupid lies that are easily unintentionally disproven. Tell your kid saltines are cookies, one day someone offers a cookie and they’re hungry so they say yes. Now they know cookies are delicious and you’re a lying piece of shit.

Yup, hell I'll probably be able to play it for "free" at some point within the next year. Why bother spending money on it at all? I have a million other games I don't have time to finish already

He’s a rich white dude with connections. He probably watches human sacrifices with his buds for a laugh.

But that’s not what we’re talking about. We’re talking about what it takes for a video game to be called an RPG, and for the past four decades, none of that was mandatory.

Sure, but you’re going to be back to that previous place a million times even if you forget. And if you’re trying to find all the things, the seelie’s are just another one of those things. They're just another part of that goal

“I’m usually pretty suspicious when I see a floating Seelie (a green spirit that leads players to treasure) in the Genshin overworld, since they usually lure me away from other pieces of treasure or resources to collect.”

Yeah, as far as I’m concerned, the only thing a game needs to be an “RPG” is the ability to steadily increase the abilities of your character as the game goes on. Does this ignore the literal interpretation of the genre name? Sure, but it’s the only thing that comes close to encompassing all the games that have been…

Sounds like a relationship built on mutual respect to me

Yeah, this is the main reason I tell friends who express interest in starting the game not to bother. I can’t imagine how alienating it is to be playing strikes and shit and have no clue what the characters are babbling about (and no in-game way to find out).

No. I've never once thought "damn my pits are waxy" and I've never had any in-grown hairs there either (and I do shave them because it's faster and requires less giving a fuck then keeping them trimmed)

No. I've never once thought "damn my pits are waxy" and I've never had any in-grown hairs there either (and I do…

In addition to corruption, unions can be a complete disaster in other ways. A friend of mine is furious about how worthless all his coworkers are because they all know there is almost nothing they can do that would lead to termination. Over the years, the union has lead to the entire company stagnating and failing to…

Not always sure, but it’s an easy formula to build a moderately successful free to play game on. Take a tried and true genre, add micro transactions and a little t&a to draw in the losers and make life easy for the marketing team, get paid. Spend a little time on Google play and then try to make the claim that it’s…
