  The last month I have played Brighter Shores for something more relaxed (some would say brain dead when it comes to levelling skills) and
  a game beta under NDA for harder stuff.

  In the recent steam sale I grabbed a bunch of games, the last few days I have been sinking time into Shapez and Shapez 2. Building and optimising without cost or survival is my jam, even more than I thought.

  This Friday Path of Exile 2 goes into early access and I will take at least a look at it, though likely start on Saturday.

  While people might have moved there with the intention, it isn’t more ingrained in FFXIV than elsewhere. Arguably even less, because you can run nearly everything solo, including dungeons (there are NPCs to run it with you) and the story gates everything else and revolves around the player character.

  If you think of the venue scene, they might be very social but they are often very toxic in that too.

  When I started my apprenticeship as assistant tax adviser in 2016, I used the fax regularly to send stuff to the IRS equivalent. I was also in charge of printing certain thing because the setup for those to come out right was unholy. In the company I am in now, we are pushing for digital solutions but still have a lot of clients with a listed fax number. One of our digital partners had fax: we don’t do that here written in their signature.

  It is a thing still sadly.

  For digital goods you would be right about sellers profits (to a degree, discarding the minuscule amount of interest the money of your purchase could accrue), for physical the use does degrade the worth faster so the seller would loose out.
