Whilst I agree with the sentiment that this decision is likely backed by the need to continue generating good business prospects with China, the hypocrisy from some people here is astounding.

You can beat Minecraft? Had no idea.

If you can see what you’re about to buy, then it actually isn’t a loot box.  Still a microtransaction, but you’re no longer paying money for a roll of the slots.  That’s pretty different.

‘Tis but thy name that is my enemy;
Thou art thyself, though not a Loot Box.
What’s Loot Box? It is nor skin, nor upgrade,
Nor legacy items, nor time-savers, nor any other part
Belonging to a microtransaction. O, be some other name!
What’s in a name? That which we call a Loot Box
By any other name would smell as fishy;

“Nonono, they aren’t loot boxes. Those are evil and absolutely not fun! We’ve seen the light and we are instead adding in something new and clearly not a loot box! They are simply Lots Of Optional Tools Based On eXtortion Everyone Sees! We are calling them L.O.O.T.B.O.X.E.S.! Clearly completely different!”

It’s...complicated. It *is* just the Midgar section from the beginning of the original, but apparently its going to be majorly expanded and have enough in it to still be a full length Final Fantasy game. Honestly though, I really can’t fault anyone for losing interest because of that. It’s definitely not what 99% of…

There’s no way this gets finished in a single console generation, right? Anyone wanting to play the entirety of FFVII Remake on a single console will surely either have to hope the PS5 has backwards compatibility or purchase the first part(s) again when the inevitable compilation version comes out.

Also zero mention of "the rest will probably be on the PS5, surprise!"

Really hoping this was just an oversight on their part, because if this is purposefully misleading, that’s scummy shit on a high level.

I am so confounded by Square’s marketing plan with this game. And why they seemingly obscure the fact there is more than one game on the box and in the branding

Agreed

A lot of people love Mrs. Maisel, including several millenials I know. It’s really grating when you treat your opinion as fact, Gita, especially when you are shitting on something. Calling it a “misstep” is far more condescending than saying something like, “that confused” or “bothered me”, or “I disagreed with…

I thought the same thing. Sure Atlanta probably is a better show than Mrs. Maisel, but its comedy is a bit more subversive. It doesn’t really fit into the comedy category. However, it’s not like there’s a subjective method to rating a TV show. Some people like different stuff, and that’s fine. All of these awards…

I definitely agree that Atlanta or Barry should have won last year, but it seems odd that you dedicated a whole paragraph almost of this four paragraph article to shitting on Mrs Maisel a year later. Mrs Maisel is an excellent show from production value, casting, and writing perspectives. I’d give it the win definitely…

So the issue is that people are lazy?

It kind of feels like you’re confusing “Best stuff” with “the stuff I like best.”

I guess your AC adapter is staying with the dock, so it looks like you may need to go back to Nintendo’s last portable. Yes, I’m talking about the console that was proven to be portable by none other than you: the Wii U. (And hey, you can play Breath of the Wild on it.)

The original Switch is pretty easy to mess with, all you need is that weird tri-head screwdriver Nintendo uses. Pick up a cheap replacement battery and you’ll be good as new in about 20 minutes.

She literally flashes her panties on stream. 

no, but only because I don’t want to. and because it isn’t worth trying to justify what i mean to someone that probably just wants to argue anyhow
