So the real question, now that we have the little miscreant responsible, is what the heck game system is that character sheet for??

Flerkittens!

And with the amounts of money they were treating like playground equipment, people are gonna care enough.

I love how he’s trying to pitch it as ‘legal trickery’ and so forth, when the entire thing was completely above board, public, and announced. He and his cronies just didn’t bother paying attention to what was going on. It’s like a magician pulling a rabbit out of a hat that he very clearly put into the hat not a…

Treehoppers. The whole lot of them look like a particularly failed AI attempt.

Contrariwise, imagine the same results, but with regular cow meat. Ho hum, boring, we aready *have* cow meat, it’s right there with fries and drink. This is *exotic* and *new*. Think of the possibilities! Nobody is going to fuss about the impractical price.and so forth, because clearly this is ‘science’ as opposed to…

Honestly, I’m all for cultured meats. Sure, this is marketing and PR and all that... but anything that gets us another couple feet down that road is good. I feel the same way about space travel, while we’re at it. Could a more efficient use of time and resources be made? Maybe. But we have to get people saying “Hey,…

Try My Little Scythe. It's an adorable adaptation that's easy and much less grindy.

Exactly. You *could* make a video game out of it, but it would be just the card game on your phone. Contrariwise, you could do video game tie-ins, where the cards are Sonic characters or whatever the kids are into these days. Mario Love Letter sounds cool, actually.

I have a problem with this. Namely that they are not in my mouth RIGHT NOW.

So would Uncle Ben.

Contrariwise, it’s played absolutely straight, with the troopers being the ones experiencing mishaps...

I do like Love Letter (and the related games therof). It’s a very small form factor game, making it easy to pack along and play just about anywhere. There’s surprisingly deep strategy, a good amount of luck, and some good old social deception.

I’m honestly more upset that they've begun putting ads in replies. Like... No.

Contrariwise, consider what would have happened if Jar-Jar had been the one rescuing Grogu...

Agreed. I mean, it was a nifty concept, but it was NOT a video screen, and honestly it looks like that’s what they went with.

I continue to be genuinely surprised that Kissinger is still alive.

The other day I, a person of tone best described as ‘light mayonnaise’, had to explain to a fellow melanin-deficient exactly what 'invited to the cookout' meant, and the significance therof. They couldn't get past why it was any different than a standard backyard BBQ.

Okay, but let’s look on the bright aide: they won’t accidentally splatter the wrong person, thinking they’re a target!

I think DeSantis is about to find out what happens when you piss off a multibillion dollar company with more lawyers than he’s had hot dinners.
