It's not stopping other CEOs, who are demanding the peasants show up while they log in at home. 

I mean, dude maaaaaaaay have fucked his sister.

Let’s not kid ourselves, for a long time, much of PC gaming was about performative privilege. “Unlike you PEASANTS who only spend HUNDREDS of dollars, I can buy a toy that costs THOUSANDS.”

That said, I won’t be surprised if they change their minds now that the Chinese government can’t legally buy their chips.

Or! Bear with me here! I know it’s wild! But we could perhaps just start taking away drivers licenses! How about that? How about instead of the judge and the cops having a fun old chuckle at Robby Roadster running a red light for the eightieth FUCKING time they impound his fucking car and tell him to buy a good pair

Yeah so what whenever I fire up online multiplayer I keep running into guys who are clearly just a brain stem that learned slurs.

“And RGB keyboards.”

Wow what a surprise ending. Did not see that one coming.

CP77 does not have good writing. Don’t get me wrong, I’m nearly 50 hours into it and enjoying the PLAYING, but I do not give a single shit about anything going on.

Nope, $50 million sounds about right. Digital publishing was massively overvalued based on rotten metrics in the first place, and as the fraud and incompetence has been peeled off it’s slowly become clear that selling ads online is a volume business.

I remember there was some sort of controversy because some dude was taking ginseng or something.

Nope, literally everyone outside the chess world is calling it that. I agree it’s a shame since Carlsen being such a sore loser pissbaby is vastly entertaining on its own terms. But them’s the clicks.

So in other words, competitive chess online is like literally every other online game where people’s egos have all the durability of spun sugar.

This reads a lot like she’s fleeing the blast radius before the bomb goes off.

LOL Doom 64. A game I bought for under $2 on Switch and then got for free in PC thanks to Epic.

So what happens when these games only move copies after they go on sale a year later?

“Far Cry 6 has a great story.”

So wait. Carlsen screwed up, his opponent took advantage, and now he's spraying piss over making a mistake? Fuuuuuck thissssss guuuuuyyyyy

It really can’t be emphasized enough how god-awful this game’s writing is (says the guy who’s up to 25 hours in and will probably put in far more than that.) It’s particularly frustrating because occasionally you’ve got a side mission where they give Keanu, say, faux Chandler to bust your chops with, or the text

I have to admit my interest in this game wasn’t terribly high but this half-assed justification for a system that’s frankly just irritating busywork disguised as a mechanic has really put me off.

I’m playing Cyberpunk 2077 right now and, rather than just use the same weapons over and over again, I’m experimenting with different ones because they unlock perk points. Right now I’m trying to headshot mooks with a thrown knife and hosing them with LMG and shotguns if that doesn’t work.
