Riiiiiiiiiiiiight. It couldn’t have anything to do with the players today just being far better at things like shooting, dribbling, and running an offense!

I remember how garbage the NBA was in the early to mid 2000s and how much better it is now.

I’m kind of loathe to post something related to Bill Simmons but Grantland did an amazing oral history of Malice at the Palace. Incoming Kinja link fail...

Oh yeah. I know after I did my first playthrough of each game I immediately went back and did another knowing how to get the best outcome (for me). 

The series is pretty much designed so you’ll make certain choices. There’s really no benefit and tons of negatives for making some decisions.

The main issue is basically throwing together some random ass assortment of who was available and not so completely drained from the last year in the NBA with no practice at all. That’s not going to work on the international level anymore unless you’re basically bringing the All-NBA 1st and 2nd teams (minus the…

This is honestly the least talented US Men’s team in the Olympics probably since NBA players were allowed. It’s totally understandable why that is, but it would not shock me if they didn’t win gold. I think I’ll actually be surprised if they do.

Just got a switch so gonna waste my life grinding Xenoblade Chronicles 2!

I loved Odyssey so much.

This was never bipartisan. Nor should it have been. Why include the perpetrators on the investigation?

Oh I totally get it. To get into raiding I had to join a Discord and actually like, learn the different roles in the raids. And it was fine sometimes. But yeah, I get people who just wanted to play the basic stuff.

When I started raiding it was shocking just how different it was compared to the rest of the game. The amount of teamwork needed was so different.

It definitely reads like management was constantly changing the scope of the game. First, it’s just a multiplayer spin off, now its a brand new IP and set up like this, now its going to be set up like that, etc.

Sure. I just mean that for me, personally, I'd rather have the Switch because it also gives me access to Switch games. I don't need handheld all that often, so not having access to my PC games isn't that big of a deal.

I do end up having to go out of town for work pretty frequently so it'll be nice for that. But I imagine I'll use it docked a lot when there's a Switch game I'd like to play.

Felony insurrection attempting to overthrow a democratic election...8 months.

No, but I also understand people who are. I only PC game at this point and haven’t really had a need for hand-held gaming. What it did do is get me to order a Switch. Because if I DO want to play portable game I’d like to try out games I don’t already have on PC.

I think there are a lot of groups that are known as sheep fuckers.

I mean Germans are really known as sheep fuckers. I figure the Netherlands are more....goat fuckers?
