The patient gamer strategy has always paid off for me, and I have to recommend it to everyone else.
One of the games I finished most recently was Cyberpunk 2077. Great game worth playing today, not so great at launch. And on the CD Projekt topic, The Witcher 3 has also been on my to-do list for ages, and guess what's getting a remaster in a few more weeks?
There are too many games out there to play in one lifetime. When most games seem to be in their worst state at launch, why rush to buy when there's so much else out there to try while you wait?
I will still recommend people wait. Wait for reviews, wait for initial audience impressions, and wait to play it on your platform of choice.
What I see is a game that has a lot of detail and some big cinematic moments that make for a good trailer. But whether all that detail translates into a genuinely fun experience remains to be seen.
For all we know, the rest of the game outside of the trailers could be nothing but ET trying to jump out of holes.
Quite possibly. The other side of the coin though is that I'm sure Netflix wanted the deal to pull in new subscribers, so if options to watch it elsewhere prevent that from happening, that could still be a win.
Maybe the game itself is the parody. Like when Jeremy Strong's character in Succession thinks he's gangster because he listens to rap music and does drugs sometimes. But he's still just an insecure, corporate manchild.
This. Reddit still exists and is still siphoning value off its content for all it's worth, but you can't browse through any old discussion without finding a handful of deleted comments and comments edited to random jibberish. The scars of the APIcalypse still exist.
Newer discussions are too vapid and bot-riddled, and many older discussions are too pockmarked with redactions to be useful.
Modern Republicans love Johnson's failure, though. His hands-off softball approach to the former Confederate states allowed the Confederacy to rise again in all but name.
GTA5 lost me in the campaign, and I can't imagine GTA6 will be any better in that regard. Never bothered with the online features. I'm not even disappointed they aren't doing a PC release and doubt I'll buy it even if they do.
I mean, just the idea that a purchase of the game amounts to tacit support of their union busting bullshit is reason enough not to buy it. Their games sell the gangster fantasy, but GTA6 as a product is basically the antithesis of rebellion.
A staff member from the χ projects who had already organized past lore into detailed reference material has formally joined the Kingdom Hearts IV team as a continuity editor. Their role is to check the new scenario against established material and help explain the series’ background internally and to Disney.
Makes me wonder why no mainstream Android fork has bothered implementing a duress fingerprint feature. Maybe this is an opportunity for Linux phones.
Graphene has a duress PIN, but I'd like to see a feature where using the wrong fingerprint both locks the phone and opens into a fake, nondescript home screen to deceive the authorities.
The only other protection for anyone using biometrics at the moment is to reboot the device, which will always default to PIN unlock, but not so easy to do when caught by the authorities unawares.
It's commendable when men who have long hair actually practice proper hair care. Long hair on a man is often seen as a sign of neglect (growing it out because they can't be bothered to cut it), but it takes way more effort to maintain long hair than short hair. So nothing but respect when they manage to sell the look.

For a console game, I'm there with you. But sadly we lost that war long ago on PC.

I mean, what else is this community for, really?

Sounds good, but what do you plan on doing in the game?
I wouldn't even say alleged, it was very blatant. An employment tribunal has already ruled against them and the case goes to full trial next month.

Congratulations, human! Your blood remains where it is supposed to be.
The game won't run without an armed agent pointing a gun at your head who will pull the trigger if you ever start enjoying it the wrong way.
Cute thinking you'll get to retire in 20 years when you sink all your savings on hardware.
Guess Panam in Cyberpunk wasn't enough.

God help them

Not the previous poster, but it acknowledges one's participation in collective behavior for mutual benefit.
