I mean, to each his own but “best three” my ass.

Yep. I’m desperately tired of writers setting up choices and consequences in games like, “Oh, you tried to be a good person? Well, here’s all the terrible drawbacks you had no way to see coming, because I am being SUBVERSIVE, as that is the only true way to be a GOOD WRITER. Now WALLOW IN GUILT AND MISERY, peon.” I…

Its a thing. Its said a lot in homage to some dude who wrote it a long time ago.

I love that you, like everyone else, has forgotten Artifact.

That was me dude. My bad. I can't help it.

Which one of you jerks put all these tears in my eyes and all down my face?

It’s depressing how often I trot this out lately, but goddamn does it hold true.

Gonna reply to get this out of the greys. I generally believe all gacha games are predatory time sinks so being the least predatory isn’t exactly high praise, but I respect dissenting opinions and I’d like everyone to get a chance to read yours.

Dragalia is the least predatory gatcha game ever. They’re currently running a free daily 10 summon that’s also handing out free high level advancement materials. It’s ridiculous. You can easily get enough currency monthly ingame without spending a single dollar to get 100+ pulls PER MONTH.

Back in the day (which means like, the early 1990s), I borrowed a classmate’s brother’s MIDI synthesizer module (marque and model unknown at this point sadly - was probably a Roland or Korg unit - but I do remember it was expensive as hell and pretty damn advanced for its time), and accompanying full-size keyboard…

That’s a real sentence now, thanks to microsoft.

Yeah people always get that and King C. Ruel wrong smh show some respect for Monkey Kong history

Gen 2's rival (if you consider that a good guy) is Giovanni’s son

It would be easier and more enjoyable to play them on PC. Most people don’t keep old consoles and even if you do, legally obtaining copies of these games at fair prices can be difficult.

If you own the hardware, sure.  Which is going to be harder and harder to acquire as time goes by, because nobody’s making new PSPs anymore.  PC ports + emulators can keep these games alive long after the original hardware they were designed for is no longer available.

I just want these games to be easier to play in 10 years.

Thrasher: Skate And Destroy. “This is a pipe dream”
I see what you did there.

Given the potential implications of successfully developing a general AI... I’m just saying it won’t be the first doom he’s produced, you know?

Gee, I’m so sorry. It’s crazy that people like me care to point out silly things like companies participating in the suppression of dissent against an authoritarian government during a massive crackdown on millions of people wanting nothing more than democracy and personal freedom.

I’d like to piggyback off your sentiment by saying:
