Oh look, the card carrying members of the Leopards Eating Peoples Faces Party is upset again about their faces being eaten.

Wait, the people most responsible for encouraging the publishers to continue down this path are now mad about the path the publishers are continuing down?

Last year, following years of efforts, publisher WB Games successfully secured a patent for the Nemesis system.

Why can’t the developers just remove the items?  The players are online and connected to their servers, how hard would it be to delete “illegal” items?

Guillemot’s own son, Charlie, moved on last year to co-found a fantasy sports NFT startup

I will say I am actually disappointed launching/landing on a planet is not player controlled and seamless. the Outer Wilds (NOT the outer worlds) was able to do this on last gen hardware without an SSD so I find it a little disappointing we are not going to see something similar on stronger hardware.

Well, you could also put “doing nothing” in quotations as well. Because it is by its very nature a pyramid scheme. So even if they get rich, they are quite literally doing it at the expense of others. So they may make $100, but ten other “innocent” people lose $10 to make that happen.

Poor people living in impoverished countries are buying NFT’s? And trading crypto on the stock market?  And they are doing this knowing it is a pyramid scheme so if they get rich they impoverish and hurt many others?

I get what you are saying, and I have a ton of sympathy for all the people that are collateral damage in this clusterfuck.  But I just find it really hard to feel bad for people that thought investing in jpegs or virtual horse armor, or hats or whatever else stupid imaginary thing is they invested in.  All while…

Literally everyone saw this coming.  And it is awesome.

Tell that to the two people he literally murdered.  

When you drive across state lines with the intention to murder people, it can’t really be called self defense.

History will continue to repeat itself.

Which is especially important as we come up on April 3rd, which is the national day of mourning and remembrance for those we’ve lost to gas station accidents.

I almost threw my controller once.

Unemployment Simulator

Awesome.  I love having gyro controls as an option for console aiming.

My understanding is that Nintendo controls a majority of their stock, so a hostile takeover is impossible.  

All good points, and maybe I should have left “still” out of the question, because it can be read that I’m implying they intended to from the beginning.
