That sucks.

Apex was the game I played with my friends to keep in touch long distance. Guess I gotta find something new now. Sure as he’ll ain’t installing Win11 for it.

I guess it’s been a long time coming. The dev decisions and priorities the last few years have really made it feel like I’m the last person they want playing their game.

I have a feeling they’re looking for more revenue streams and need to generate more user engagement

As long as the base game justifies the price I don’t mind as much. I thi the practice is worse when you don’t get a full story and it feels like “pay 40 dollars to see the end!”

I usually catch these on sale anyway. I’m the worst type of customer for Owlcat for sure.

I’ve been wanting to check out Rogue Trader now that that’s out. I loved Kingmaker and Wotr from Owlcat (with the caveat that I always disable the crusade and kingmaking modes…)

I was gonna say unless they cut a small sliver of it off you ain’t smoking that in less than 12-24

The extra 20 minutes telling you to buy shit and like and subscribe is necessary I hear.

Nah you gotta play it IMO.

Just go and do it now and don’t read anything else.

Well the prequels were supposed to be more of a condemnation of the original Jedi order. The Jedi were supposed to be these hypocritical religious zealots and Anakin was supposed to be drawn to the darkside because of that hypocrisy. It’s why he was “too old” to train because they wanted tiny minds to indoctrinate.

All of this culminates into that penultimate line by Obi-Wan. It’s illustrating that hypocrisy.

However Lucas has the directing chops and subtlety of cocaine bear and this all went flat. You see this more watching deleted scenes and reading some of the side content.

I’m surprised they’re still doing multiple seasons.

I thought it’d pull a Concord by now.

Me personally I’d rather have the loading screen. It’s being honest about what’s happening rather than trying to hide it.

I don’t find constantly moving through tight corridors immersive at all.

Jokes on them I don’t post anything

I’ve started pre-announcement. Lunch prices are insane now.

Part of the problem is every tech company is churning. So it’s hard to find places to hop to with similar pay.

Hell even friends I know are having tougher times just getting any job. Let alone FAANG level.

You can. There’s nothing wrong with it. I eat em too.

Then you can wipe out windows when you realize you don’t use it anymore :)

Started playing LoZ Oracle of Seasons. I never played the oracle games and so far they’re great. Never realized how much I like the GB Zelda games.

Afterwards I think I’m gonna revisit the Golden Sun games.

Xbox series X Elite controllers. I’ll never go back. They have a good weight and feel.

Sorta on topic, what do people use for N64 emulation? I can’t find a 6 button controller that I like.

You’re getting pretty close to anthropomorphising Larry Ellison there.

It’s a hard balance I agree. If advertisements weren’t so unusable on pages I’d be inclined to leave my ad block off.

I pay for news before because I support having a well written journalism. But not everyone has that luxury.

Journalism is expensive. But I don’t know if parasitic ads are the answer. I don’t want to compromise my privacy to read news.

If someone can Crack that nut and come up with a 3rd option they’ll laugh their way to the bank.

It’s explained in a battle but it’s easy to miss. I completely missed it my first playthrough
