Its funny people downvoted you for being the very thing they ae pointing out to you existing.
Its is just a comic that makes the point that not everyone knows what seems common to you and while there is significant overlap in most peoples knowledge people should take delight in being the ones to bring otherwise common knowledge to those who do not yet possess it.
- Comment on How do Ghostwriters work? Does the person the book is about say to the writer I will give you 2 or 20 percent of the sales or is it a 50 50 split? 1 week ago:
Unless you are a complete retard and manage to negotiate the worst deal for yourself possible and give royalties to your ghost writer. The art of the deal.

Game - year - critic/user score
Deadly Alliance - 2002 - 79/73 Deception - 2004 - 81/80 Shaolin Monks - 2005 - 77/87 Armageddon - 2006 - 75/80
Mk9 - 2011 - 79/83 MKX - 2015 - 83/77 MK11 - 2019 - 82/43 MK1 - 2023 - 83/65
The user score has not cracked 80 in 14 years. My point with that game was people were excited for a new MK game after a largr gap. In a two year period they released their three highest rated games since they moved to consoles.

Disagree on all fronts. The competitive piece is one aspect, they could try new game modes that are not just reskins and points like MK Karting, Chess, Konquest, etc.
The modern games all under perform against the ps2 games on metacritic. The only modern one to crack 8.0 or higher is a fourteen yesr old Ps3 entry which had a lot of fanfare as the brsnd returning and was not shit.

Deception Krypt was the best. The rest are shallow hybrid konquestd.
The best MKs had multiple play modes liie Konquest. The push to online pushed me out.
- Comment on Xbox consoles and games will no longer be sold at Walmart and Target, according to employees 2 weeks ago:
Nintendo suck, they always have. I have always heard the xbox v ps battle coming down to hardware and exclusives but truly Nintendo live and die by Mario et al.
I have a switch, a covid gift and I could not stand their store shovelware or predatory subscriptions so I only ever bought second hand and have now taken to high seas. They suck.
Playstation and Cbox are close behind too.
- Comment on Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game - Official Announcement Trailer 2 weeks ago:
I bought MK Deception at launch, it had multiple different play modes, a lot of characters and a new incredible sequel MK game came like the next year and another year after that an entire new game with every character ever.
3 complete distinct games that pushed the envelope in 3 years without DLC. New MK sucks, just looks more polished and people think it should be priced with RDR2 AND get the season model?
You are defending greed to the detriment of art.
- Comment on AMD and Sony’s PS6 chipset aims to rethink the current graphics pipeline 2 weeks ago:
The PS3 was revolutionary just difficult to shift to programming.
That said a industry in saturated to declining stages of life should probably not make their product less accessible to those giving it value.
Everyone still tried to make it work on PS3, I cant imagine that drive will be there for the ps6 era.

- Comment on Why do i tip my bartender $2 per drink and per bar food order but 20% when I order food from a waitress? Am I tipping wrong? 2 months ago:
Pretty sure the boss cant take tips legally speaking. Tax the income, let the business survive based on its ability to cover its costs.
- Comment on Why do i tip my bartender $2 per drink and per bar food order but 20% when I order food from a waitress? Am I tipping wrong? 2 months ago:
You left out the part that is actually being tipped for, bringing the food to you. The chefs are salary.
People should be able to go out and buy thenfood at the prices listed.

Its insane, I hated visiting there because tipping is so weird and ingrained like something theyncant explain. People will tell you its simple just do x, other say yeah well I do y, and the next I will only do y if abc otherwise I omly give x.
I just overpaid for everything there and considered it expensive and weird
- Comment on IGN Boss Leaving After Six Years Following Latest Mass Layoff 2 months ago:
I cant specifically remember what IGN did to make me avoid it. There was a revoly.on reddit years ago that stuck with me.
They also rank shit games high and are a but boring, but I think maybe there was a lot of ads or something.

- Comment on PlayStation 6 Console And New PS6 Handheld ‘Canis’ Specs Leak, It’s Claimed - Insider Gaming 2 months ago:
This gen gave me the kick to leave consoles. Neither Sony or Nintendo seem that interested with me being a customer, constant paywalls and upsells while getting less and less in return. I’ll get the next 8-10 years of games through the ps5 after that I imagine everything will be on pc. VR is not my thing, neither is online or live service so I can get all the emulators without a monthly cost.
Consoles are dead.

- Comment on Is Mexican food uniquely good with alcohol or have I just been conditioned? 3 months ago:
I used not like food and drink together either, I would switch to water at a wedding when food was served but it waned. It mostly went away due to finger food in pubs and now a beer and good grub is heavenly.
I saw a steak and whiskey post and I cant say I could go for spirits with dinner.

Yeah the US sucks. The spotify app is getting worse and worse. I contacted them to disable the podcast autoplay video on the homescreen, after giving all my details and reasoning they untoggled and told.me to wipe and reinstall…no difference.
I am in the process of getting the family over to Deezer.
I dispise animated or live features on a homescreen.
