A lot of games on Steam hold zero interest to me. AI is just the newest form of slop. Beyond that what I see is a hell of a lot more games are being released in the last 4 years. That means more competition but also many have not been around long enough to build up over time revenue. To a certain extent you are comparing life time revenue to launch revenue. On AAA that probably doesn't matter as much but on the lesser hyped indy games I think it would be an important distinction.

It's probably be viewed as heresy, but GTA Vice City is by far my least favorite. Miami is just a flat boring city to drive in. You know it's bad when the high points are bridges and parking garages. Vice City's only redeeming feature was the flying car cheat. Got a few hours of enjoyment with police chases with that on...

And yes, I'm mildly concerned about VI...

Weird take. I'm not a fan of third wave but two tone and old Jamaican kick ass. More like you can't understand how someone would not like pizza with triple cheese and some cheese shavings on top as third wave was way to cheesy...

But still, it's nowhere in the constitution beyond Right to peaceably assemble and the right to petition the government. The way I look at it, you would still have the two parties as a necessity. Otherwise no candidate gets 50% of the vote, and congress decides who becomes president. That is not going to change without a constitutional amendment. All the 3rd parties would be more like influencers to the main two. When looking at a primary, one might be a progressive party member/democrat or a green/democrat and who they chose to vote for could be influenced by the 3rd party endorsements. We don't have to have a parliamentary like party system as we do not have that organizational structure.

Challenge mutual exclusion in political parties. In the US we vote for the person, not the party. Why can't I belong to more than one political party?

The problem I see is meaningful change to the voting system requires a constitutional amendment which is a high bar. Political parties are not in the constitution. Getting rid of mutual exclusion just requires a good legal argument...
