Honestly, I hope Disney looks at this deal with EA and realizes it needs to develop games in house. Maybe revive LucasArts instead of licensing it out. At least then they might have a bit more control (or foresight) when creating games for the Star Wars canon. EA doesn’t care about the actual product, but Disney does.

I think the problem right now is that the money guys at EA who HAVE to answer to the shareholders aren’t doing a good job of listening to developers, and they’re doing a worse job of communicating what the developers are passionate about back to the shareholders. Any enterprise that large has a ton of granularity, and

EA has no enthusiasm for anything. All its studios are just making the same old IPs with either no changes or worse their changes just being more DLC/Microtransactions/Loot-Boxes and anything creatively interesting is axed because it could rock the boat in a consumer friendly way.

The worst part about EA’s handling of Star Wars is that I can’t feel any enthusiasm from them. Every other form of media that Star Wars has invaded since the Disney acquisition have been firing on all cylinders. Books, comics, TV shows, and the movies, of course - and everyone involved in those projects just seem so

“... Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel… The span is too long just to have a bridge, so they had to have a bridge and an underpass...”

I read that as, “I’m not ratting out the 8th grade bully who shaves and seems to like pounding my balls.”

There are people who are lost causes, certainly. But there are even more people who are eligible to vote and do not, and need something, or someone, to activate them.

Hey, just thought you should know, you’re opinions are complete and utter garbage. You might want to do something about that.

Twitter is dramatically worse than Facebook, as evidenced by the fact that it is the one of the two that is the preferred tool of Donald Trump.

Yeah, that was “holy shit fuck no” territory. Got no issue with people’s private kinks (shit, I domme a guy who is into this soooo) but that is fucking disgusting and I would have a hard time not resorting to fisticuffs if some jackass stranger or coworker “nipped” my shirt. Boundaries, learn them.

yeah, don’t force other people to participate in your kink

“Even when I worked in PC World I would sometimes walk up to people and nip at their shirt. I got in trouble once; someone walked into the PC repair centre and I had part of their dad’s computer in my mouth. But the other staff knew I was like that to everyone. They didn’t find it weird.”

"Boyfriend" is probably a key word here.

Yeah, and didn't you comment on something else and say you were 20 years old? As someone who's also in my early 20s, I figured it would go without saying that I would acknowledge that sex drives ebb and flow—particularly as relationships stretch for decades and careers intensify.

you are missing the point of this, it is not supposed to be actually used. its supposed to be purchased and then sit in your basement for 2 years before you sell it for 1 tenth of what you bought it for. Its a replacement for treadmills and ellipticals because there are too many used on the market. companies need

Hey, that's a not great idea! I don't love it! How soon can you not have these in production? Put me down for none of those!
