The “don’t compare” one is tough, and I’m not sure I entirely agree. On one hand, yes, it’s really easy to make it about you, and that’s very bad. And I agree it’s important to avoid the “I know how you feel” construction.

These all give the impression of being “behind the scenes” stills, with the actors goofing around out of character. In that regard, they remind me of the faux-outtakes that Pixar used to run during the end credits.

Yup. Which brings me right back to what I said the first time.

Here you go. If you’d like to keep being wrong, just let me know.

There is a warning on the box. On the Switch box, and on the Splatoon box.

It was made clear from the beginning that free online services on Switch were temporary until the subscription plan was in place.

Yes. Just like you’d lose access to multiplayer in all your PS4 and XB1 games if you stop paying those subscriptions.

The “modern games” offered by the other services usually suck. I can’t remember the last time I played one of my PS+ games, and I’ve had the service for years.

You keep making this point — that “thumbdrives cost money” — but you seem blissfully unaware of what a silly point it is.

Helping get location footage for a new scene on Mustafar?

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think Loki only birthed Sleipnir.

I think you made far too big a deal about this except for the bridgekeeper part.

So much this.

• First of all, what is your favorite grocery store? Wegman’s, by a very wide margin.

The only problem I have with it is that analog triggers just aren’t as precise and snappy as buttons. They have a long travel distance and a mushier feel. The combat seems designed with that liability in mind, so it’s not so bad, but it’s still a problem.

Dude, get out of my head.

The eShop is definitely poor for browsing. And there are similar complaints about other digital storefronts like Steam. Would it be nice if it worked better? Sure.

It would be great if you got a hold of a copyright lawyer or other expert to explain all this in a feature or something. It seems super weird that games containing licensed music can be retroactively altered like this. It would be one thing if the game were being re-released, or if new copies had different content…

This is easily Google’s biggest problem — the ridiculous array of similar products that overlap in function, seem designed to replace one another, and never just coalesce into a single experience.

I wonder if there was a way to say that without being a dick.
