I was sleeping in my parents room, on the floor, till I was embarassingly old.

Turns out I had/have Tinnitus and found the background noise of whatever show they were falling asleep to made it infinite easier to sleep.

I have three bottles, still sitting neatly in their half of the 2 pack packaging. It hurts.

It’s a known glitch on the current patch. You can always block the player, but it’s probably a relic of attempting to force the playstation account integration - they may have intended to handle cheater through sony rather than worry about it themselves.

IBEW bud from the other corner of the country! To be fair, I’m not at 5 years yet, but I get 4 float days, 10 vacation, 7 sick days, unsure what it’s like for normal hourly workers but as a shift worker I work any holidays on my schedule. It’s hilariously bad, I only semi-joke when I say I’d like to go on strike from my own union to make it actually work for me.

Oh, and despite working well over 400 hours of overtime, none of that translates into extra vacation time. Yet corporate is flabbergasted at poor retention rates.

Sounds hilarious. Can’t wait for my 6 8s.

Why are heroes so important? Role models are one thing, but hero worship is an incredibly problematic concept especially at a young age. The idea of an unquestionably good person is a myth that lends itself to authoritarianism, and that should die a slow agonizing death. It’s a little much to get deep into stuff like that for a kids game, but I’m certainly not sad to see “blindly good” characters go - it’s why Bluey is nice for how imperfect the parents are, even if they’re still an unrealistic ideal with how much time and energy the parents have.

If someone with access to time travel is hunting me, the last thing I want is a device known to be associated with me speaking to every cell tower I’m near, time breaking qualities or not. I leave my phone at home and spend only cash as I take a random bus tour of the country.

At 4,500 hours, I would say the majority would be “it used to be great until the devs did X”

My curiosity is overpowering my better judgement - what?

Civ 7’s Antiquity Age is fine. A different take in many ways, but it was interesting enough. The age transitions and general gameplay loop of the following ages get progressively less enjoyable though.

It would matter if I saw a single person trying to refund the game denied. Generally, when something like this happens on steam, valve gets very lax with the refund policy - just look at what happened with helldivers 2.

you mean how humans commonly relate their experiences? yeah dude fuckin wild concept.

op is being put off another playthrough by the thought of going through the tedium of the exploration a second time, a complaint being echoed, but go off king, reading comprehension’s for losers

the same complaints stopping the second playthrough for them stop the first one for myself. irrelevant though.

The collectibles are one of the biggest icks the game has for me. Controversially, I want my factory building game to be about building a factory, and don’t really care for exploring a mediocre, mostly empty map. The factory building is objectively worse and simpler than Factorio, the blueprint system is a joke, and your tools for doing things differently to “the obvious solution” are so limited that I cannot ever bring myself to finish the game. It’s wild to make a game in an entire extra dimension so much more limited.

Isn’t that vaguely what the villain of ready player one does?

Using the rig from five years ago that has to play all those games on “high” instead of “ultra”, the humanity!

Occasionally, there will be a game I want to play as soon as it releases - even then, I’ll maybe wait until the last hour before release to “pre order”, just as one last fuck you to the concept.

I also choose this person’s body

Sorry - all it would do in regards to “countering the threat of gaming”

All it would do is force people to keep their very much still capable last gen computers lmao
