I'm from the Rust Belt, and like I always say, low cost of living means the only people that want to live there are those that can't afford to leave. And then they convince themselves it's some kind of heavenly paradise compared to the rest of the world they've never seen.

Eh. It’s all the same data that Valve has and uses for whatever reasons they choose, ostensibly to make more money and engineer your experience with their store. This is the entire point of publishers having storefronts, besides money, is data. Epic will have enough of their own soon enough, and gamers will download…
It’s reason for existence is very real, it’s just not visible on the end user side. It exists to bring more money from sales to developed and lessen the outsized impact of Steam, I think. And to spread the holy gospel of Unreal Engine, and cement Epic as something other than the Fortnite company.
Fuck Valve, double fuck Gabe, and triple fuck Steam. They’re treating this with the same gravity as an off topic review. Ban the accounts.
To play devil's advocate, that last bit you quoted seems to suggest ok a certain reading that Congress could make a law allowing appropriation by another body? I agree President's should not have that power, but Congress seemingly ceded this authority on their own behalf some time ago. Much like it has gone with war,…
It seems to me like they are trying to codify their unwritten rules, without writing them. Subbing in a left fielder to pitch in a blowout to save arms is smart baseball, but isn't 'the way the game is meant to be played'. Maybe?
It didn’t occur to me just now until reading your comment that these teams and GMs are in the business of placated a bunch of ‘temporarily embarrassed millionare’ types, and they all sincerely want to believe the thing that they attach their pride to is just one piece away from relevance. How many sports talk callers…
If we are special thing about fanbases with outdated jerseys, the Buffalo Bills has to be in the lead. The old punter has more jerseys in the stands than anyone on the team now. Then all the guys from the 90's teams. AND all the hyped QBs and WRs that left after a year or two.
That would require Pelosi and the majority of Dems to actually want those things and be willing to stand up for them. How well do you think a drastic decrease in defense spending will go over for them? Taxes on the rich? They're fighting against the Green New Deal and Single payer health care. I don't think their…
For what it’s worth, I hope there is NO year 2 or year 3 development for shitty games anymore. I’m sick of full priced, collectors edition games as services launching buggy, flawed, and empty. I don’t want them to slowly improve over time as they sell microtransactions and season passes.
Why exactly would you 'gladly' spend money on additional things for this game? I'm honestly trying to understand the mindset. I don't purchase cosmetic items in any game because they're not real, tradeable, or otherwise something that increases my enjoyment, and further reinforce the ludicrous monetization of games.…
A thousand times, this. MMO subscriptions just create a massive sunk cost fallacy, and all they (Blizzard) care for is money, not player happiness.
Completely off topic, but this made me think:
It’s rather Pavlovian. The momentary fun of shooting things, getting better at the scenes iteratively, and being rewarded directly with larger numbers and cooler colored items. Adrenaline rewarded with dopamine.
Write a post when this person actually faces a consequence or two. All of this fawning over sound bites is straight bullshit, fuck all these committee members until they subpeona and level charges. Fuck. Them. All. They aren’t doing shit. Nielsen goes back to the office after this and gives even fewer fucks than…
The way I see it, I got Destiny 2 for $12 as part of a humble bundle on PC, but the old expansions ran $30. It’s now $70 to buy the Forsaken version and the year pass. I played the game for a few weeks, but it’s really nothing special in terms of interesting loot systems.
I’m just going to to leave this here.
I think it's just branding, not actually a proposal of ebtending actual Medicare to everyone. It's just that it is a program of federally sponsored healthcare that already exists, and gives people a frame reference that the government does indeed cover healthcare for citizens already in some capacity.
Because the powerful woman who advocates for victims of sexual abuse is actively choosing to defend her son versus remaining as an advocate for survivors. How is that not her choice? Sounds like her shitty kid did some shitty shit and she’s stepping down to try and shield him from the consequences. Is that who you…
