Dance with the Vampire Bund has a very legitimate case, though. In standard vampire lore it tends to be the case that someone who turns into a vampire retains their physical appearance at the time of turning. It’s a classic trope to have “young” vampires recently turned who look older, “old” vampires who are…

What “crime” does that fall under, exactly? It most certainly violates company policy regarding confidentiality and misuse of information, but contacting someone one time and asking them on a date is not a criminal offense.  

Technically it’s no different than asking her out face to face. It would have been unsolicited contact either way. Would it be better to ask for someone’s number rather than just using it from paperwork? Sure, but it’s a double standard because if she thought the guy was hot and was interested in him, she would be…

I hope your wife’s rebut was “I don’t know [name here], does shit fall out of your vagina too?”

Easy to miss if one does not read the instructions that indicate not to use tap water.

Same. I’m only a few chapters into RDR2 and I’m going to sell it. Yeah it’s huge and full to the brim with content, but I can’t get invested in it. Between the slow pacing, far distances of travel, low ratio of effort to dollar amount earned weighed against the penalties for being an outlaw in a game where you’re…

I’ve been saying this for years.... let Obsidian take the franchise. New Vegas was still buggy, no doubt, but it was a better game than Fallout 3, 4, and 76 in many people’s opinion.

Ding Ding Ding! We have a winner! We have been entirely too lenient with Bethesda. Bethesda was always given the benefit of the doubt, we knew the games would arrive buggy, kind of chuckled it off, and after years of this practice, it’s “fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.”  This time, though, most…

You’re right, instead of being “awful and whiney” about a poor condition product, the customer should be thankful for their shit sandwich, take a big bite, and just smile! Ungrateful jerks!

USPS currently gets no direct taxpayer money but was most certainly funded in part by taxpayer dollars until 1982. They do get subsidies from the taxpayers though, singing to the tune of tens of millions of dollars. They are mostly self-sufficient through sales of stamps and loans, but they most definitely received…

Why? Because these are the kind of people who chose the easiest line of work in existence. Any good looking idiot can take their clothes off and perform lewd acts to a crowd of riled up hornballs. If these were the kind of people who wanted to put in serious effort and really work (such as that required to build a…

Pretty sure it’s not a bigger deal than I think when I see them signing their own death warrant.

In northern climates where you have 4 seasons, buy both a set of summer and winter wiper blades and swap them out when you change your tires/wheels (around the time when average temps pivot around the 45ºF mark). At the end of each season (or more frequently), wipe down your wiper blades with a clean microfiber cloth…

Harsh, but true...  At some point the customer has to speak with their wallet and walk away from a company.  It’s the exception rather than the rule that expressing concerns verbally will result in compensation.  The only real way for a company to change is to take away their profits and walk away.

True. They should just give the franchise to Obsidian. New Vegas had bugs, but it had such depth and fun to it.  The DLCs added SO MUCH content!

In 99.9999% of cases you, as a customer support rep, would be beneath the pay grade required to make the call to offer a $30 credit/refund and make things right by offering a truly appropriate response as typed. You would follow the script provided to you, which in most cases would be far inferior to the appropriate…

FTFY

I really hope that this all boils down to a massive rush on all fronts to hit a deadline rather than the absolute lack of care or customer service that Bethesda seems to have at nearly every aspect of their business aside from their own bottom line. I know there isn’t some pushy overlord rushing them to market like…

True, but could the same not be said for many of Nintendo and Microsoft’s exclusives? Linear single player stories don’t lend themselves very well to replay. Playing through several great exclusive games one time each is a viable reason to sway a consumer into buying into a gaming platform.

I’d never heard of it before, but glad I’m on PS+ to try it out.  Looks fun!
