I did too but in that ‘this is supposed to be a fun fantasy romp but actually it’s dark, violent, and depressing’ kind of way.

Jesus that's an even bigger fail than SC returning in this form. The community had been pretty vocal about the potential for an Alien Isolation inspired game in a JP setting... This is not what they meant. 

Ah yes, the things no one wants.

A lot of people are forgetting your first point. Buy a cheap 4TB external and move stuff back and forth , USB3 is fast enough that it’s not too big of a deal. 

Fucking who? Some loser? Who the fuck gives a shit besides other losers on the internet? Stop giving these clowns free advertising.

I might be wrong, but I think Smart Delivery isn’t a rule.

Physical games are completely pointless. I can’t remember the last time I even bought physical software, digital is the way to go.

Excuse me, the movie is GREAT. Yes, it’s different from the comic in a lot of ways, but it’s an excellent adaptation that does its own thing while still being true to the comic.

“The movie is fine"???

Even if you drop Gold subscription from the Ultimate pass, I still think it’s a good value for the user, and the right price for Microsoft. It’s not hard to get more than 3 $60 dollar games out of it over a year and get extra value as a player, while Microsoft I think would still want to have that average of basically…

Agreed, the added value of xCloud more than makes up for the loss of Gold — I don’t think it’s a coincidence that Game Pass and xCloud are getting merged this fall, should give us a decent idea of when Gold will get retired.

I wonder if that would ultimately be a mistake - unless they lower the price of ultimate. Even though the cost wouldn’t be going up, I think this would result in perceived value going down. The $180/ year people pay for GamePass ultimate would no longer include the $60/year for live they were going to be spending…

John K Samson - formerly of The Weakerthans, currently probably the best lyricist alive - released a new song too. It’s less than two minutes long, but it sums up my current feelings on life more aptly than any 40-minute album I’ve heard all year, which is kinda the way he’s always done it. No one else could turn a…

I am so beyond over the “dudes with goggles and backwards caps firing military assault rifles” genre. Is there a more boring aesthetic under the sun?

Some of my favorite Grant moments were when he willingly faced a couple of his phobias for the purposes of the show: one episode where he was in a body of water and freaked out about fish touching him, and another where he had spiders dumped on his head.

And they will refuse to get vaccinated.

They’ll get it, suffer none of the symptoms but instead pass it on to the rest of us and we’ll die from it

That’s how this shit always happens. These people suck

Good way to clear out some of the stupid gene in the population

How about a nice eventual “You refused to wear a mask; we refuse to treat you at this hospital, asshole”?

Thanks for the heads up, just bought it to fire up this weekend 😊
