Unfortunately, patent trolling means they won’t become mainstream. Companies have to pay to add paddles, so they won’t unless it’s part of a more expensive controller offering.

I’m just using Unreal 🤷‍♂️

There’s also a Godot Humble Bundle running right now for any newcomers looking to develop.

I quit playing when they started sunsetting planets,

I vowed never to spend another dime on Bungie products until they give me back the $60 campaign I paid for.

I don’t know how this game is still going after they consistently make unpopular decisions that turn people away. Maybe being dumbstruck by that is why Sony bought them.

Edit: Like I straight-up paid them full game price only to be treated like an F2P player because they’re apparently incapable of doing what 343 did with all of their older games in the MCC and allowing players to install specific parts of content. I’m still annoyed that I’m being punished for their incompetence.

Yes, but also no.

I didn’t play the Halo franchise until late 2015-early 2016, but I thought 3 and ODST were disappointing, and I stopped one mission into Reach. These days, Reach and 3 are my two favorite Halo games and ODST gets an honorable mention for its campaign. So what changed? In retrospect, it’s because they were running on a 360 with an ass framerate, ass resolution, and ass FOV with a weird crosshair that made me subconsciously raise my head and controller-based controls that I was bad at. They were uncomfortable for me to play on the hardware I had to run them on, and as soon as I had them with all that QOL improved, the experience was completely different.

This experience, along with plenty others, has shown me that it’s often not the game itself and could be several other factors, from the port and the platform to my expectations and my attitude. So while I’ve had a bunch of “disappointing” patient experiences, a good amount of them stopped being disappointing when I gave them another shot

I don’t keep an ATM in my bedroom, unfortunately.

Only time I have cash for tipping is when I get tipped.

This wouldn’t go in either

Especially since they thought selling all their western franchises off at bargain bin prices to go all-in on NFTs was a good idea, and they’ve been pushing them to date despite continued unpopularity. Decisions like that aren’t just out of touch, they’re downright stupid.

It wouldn’t surprise me if they ended up bought by Sony, considering their working relationship and poor leadership. Hell, I never bought FFVII Remake despite really enjoying FFXV, my first FF title, because of their business dealings. It was PS4 exclusive and I didn’t wanna play it at 1080p 30 FPS on my near-launch console at the time. I knew it was temporary and coming to PC eventually, so I waited. This was followed by being Epic exclusive and the first $70 PC title, so I waited for a launch literally anywhere else and a sale. Eventually that happened with a Steam launch, woo-hoo, except by that point I didn’t care as much as I did at launch and they had already given me the game as a PS+ title. Didn’t really feel like buying it when I already had access, didn’t ever even end up playing it, and now I have Intergrade’s PS5 version as part of PS+ Extra these days for when I get around to it. In my eyes, they’re kinda just standing in the way of their own sales in favor of taking whatever cash these companies are willing to offer them. I didn’t buy FFXVI either, because I still have VII RI in my backlog from all that shit.

People complain about them supposedly having DRM now or whatever but, to be frank, the fact that I can just click “print” and it actually prints makes it miles ahead by default. My printer actually functions now so I can’t say I have any regrets.

Realtalk, once Hytale drops I’m probably dropping Minecraft. It’s everything I want them to add but without me having 13 years of experience with the game. Something new with QOL and easy modding sounds great.

Not sure why the cost of gas matters, either, when they have no problem blowing money on Biden gas pump stickers and creating drag on their car by attaching as many Trump and US flags as possible.

If I need photos printed, I’ll go to a shop. It doesn’t happen that often and, frankly, inkjets suck so badly that I honestly doubt I’d save time or money owning one. All the headaches I’ve dealt with just trying to print basic stuff like shipping labels and documents disappeared the moment I bought a Brother laser printer.

Probably Duke Nukem Forever. I told myself that if it were ever $1, I’d buy it.

Then it was in the $1 tier of a Humble Bundle. Gonna be honest, still not really worth it, I don’t think. Never finished it, didn’t really think it was that fun.

And they wonder why we think they’re lunatics.

Republicans and Americans

No, just the Republican Americans. The ones who say they’re Christian but completely ignore how often the Bible outright says to love those around us in favor of hatred because of some irrelevant thing that doesn’t affect them in the slightest, like race or sexuality.

The rest of us normal people are capable of acceptance of each other and desire for the greater good.

Yeah, Elon has this idea that he can make WeChat but for places outside of China. An app you’re effectively required to have as a means of communication, identification, payment, and whatever else, and he wants to call it “X.”

Probably a reason they have to come up with names like “libtards” while we can just say “conservatives” as an insult because it’s self-explanatory.

Bro I could say the same thing about global warming, vaccines, race, and abortions, but I’m still surrounded by people fighting progress. Vaping is no different.

At $8, the value of this as a discussion piece decoration is amazing.

This is the 50s, I think it’d be pretty easy to draw a line from casual racism to white supremacists. A key difference this time is that it’s not just Germans led by one insane man, it’s instead a bunch of redneck prices and conspiracy theorists.

Fortunately, I hate videocalls and have no reason to use them, so if my friend videocalled me I’d ask what the fuck they were doing and immediately be suspicious.
