Technically this is true, but if we’re totally honest we don’t ‘need’ most video games at all, so a remake of a decent old game so it can be played on modern machines might be better than some new Ubisoft NFT abomination.

Well that’s nice, but the engine was not the problem I (or most people) had with the last thoroughly MEH Tomb Raider game.

Well, it was only 90 sales and marketing drones.

Live by the scam, die by the scam.

Putin’s Russia really can do nothing but destroy nice things.

It’s a good thing. Anyone who suggests NFTs is a wannabe scammer who’s now revealed themselves.

Yeah, but this is something they promised would be in the game earlier and just never ‘bothered’ to implement. So like everything in these promised updates it’s just undoing some of the badness they already purposely inflicted on you so it’ll feel relatively generous.

None of this is really very generous. They just cranked the microtransaction / grinding bullshit up to 11, now they’re dialing it back down to 8 to be relatively generous - woohoo? It’s standard sleazy playbook.

Oh Please.  Alec Baldwin doesn’t care about anything but Alec Baldwin, and it’s silly to pretend otherwise.

This is sadly common from the ‘more hardcore than you’ crowd. People on Twitter are VERY ANGRY that a way to pause has been found and that people might ‘cheat’ at the game this way.

Cho was awesome as Spike, I have absolutely no complaints about him, but...

When selling items, if you scroll down to the resources section, the first category that pops up is valuables to sell. You can mark everything by hitting the Triangle button, and then quickly sell it all by holding down X.

I played HZD and Zelda: BotW back to back and much preferred HZD.

Stepford would be a great name for one of these. Very classy!

OB-viously the guard was a homosexual foreign agent.

I’m just happy that the NYT appropriating and neutering the game means that it’s officially Over and finally all those yellow and green squares will stop popping up in the feed.

If I tuned in it would just be for the lulz of seeing which major competitors the Chinese disqualified for this event to make sure they win a medal.... but then I realize I don’t need to do that live at all. The whole damn thing’s just a farce on completely fake snow. It’s a long long way from the ‘Wide Wide World of…

In 2108, when Stadia was announced, every sane person knew this would be the outcome and said so loudly - and even predicted the timeline with fairly high accuracy (within a year). There were no real technology failures (it’s great tech), it’s all management failures - Phil Harrison managed to fuck things up YET AGAIN…

Milli Vanilli were way more popular than Boney M ever was. Sure, anyone paying attention would know, but most of the Vanilli fans had no idea who Farian or Boney M were. I wasn’t a fan, but I lived through it and knew who Milli Vanilli were but had no idea about Farian or Boney M.

NFTs are nothing but scams, so why not just scam from the very start?
