Eh, this doesn’t seem that complicated, honestly. The complications just are about the PS4/PS5 split, the rest of that is just standard collectors edition bollocks that 99% of people know to ignore (or have enough money to dive in head first on).

is it going to be about how i can finally get my hands on a PS5 without going through a million hoops? i just want to buy the gotdang console 

As a cynical bastard , I’d have thought that if you restrict the amount of time people can play gatcha/fremium type games , they won’t be able to grind for things easily and will have to purchase more things from the games marketplace.

Maybe we should ask why gaming addiction is such a huge problem in China? I’m guessing the prevalence of gatcha games, the console ban (which clearly drew gamers to mobile), and the overall culture of pushing your kids to study non-stop so the little free time they have is spent sucked into a phone. This honestly…

Feels like this could have been written to be less inflammatory. It’s more of a “hey you don’t have all of the facts, here’s what you’re missing out on” situation, but instead it’s presented more like “fuck you you’re wrong.”

EDIT: The fact that my browser tab reads “Calling China ‘Anti-Gaming’ Really Misses The Mark”,…

It’s a dumb series built around shooting nameless enemies, hunting animals for their skins, taking down forts, and blowing shit up. Personally, I really don’t need it to be more than that. 

Mercedes supplies too many teams for them to start suppling Sauber again. If Sauber no longer uses Ferrari units they’d have to switch to Renault or Red Bull

Huh, there is indeed the world’s tiniest flinch there. That’s almost weirder. It’s not an oversight that enemies don’t react to being hit, it’s intentional.

Weird choice of combat animations; putting so much detail into the attack animations, and not a single frame of animation into “getting hit”. Makes combat feel oddly weightless.

And no sequence from 2001: a Space Odyssey makes the cut:

“If the whole premise is owning the game long term then you don’t get to list selling it as a bonus”

It’s not idiotic just because you aren’t smart enough to understand it. 

I don’t understand the commenters who are cheering the slow demise of physical media. Like, fair enough if all-digital works for you, but why wouldn’t you want other people to have options?

There was no fiasco, she failed a test. I smoke weed too. But if I had a job interview or something important and I failed a drug test for whatever reason, people in my life are gonna tell me I fucked up. Mom dying or not. No accountability.

The whole earth disagrees with you.

though they have similar systems in London and Stockholm

Did she ever? I’m almost positive the only thing she ever did was her dissertation.

The Encore GX is overrated? I wasn’t aware it was even rated.

...you do know Rodgers is estranged from his entire immediate family, right? Doesn’t mean he’s evil, but I’m sure they’ll be happy to provide an *endless* amount of drama if his name gets seriously floated.

The anti vax stuff still keeps coming up because in every statement she puts out where she claims to not be an anti vaxer, she just so happens to also say things like this:
