Its a shit feeling tbh, I feel the whole industry is sliding in the wrong direction.
I turned on Hitman the other day and midway through a playthrough I got booted for loss of connection. It is a single player game. Finding it harder and harder to have a positive enough view to purchase games.

Oh man same for ps5, major let down. I let my psn lapse and I am just playing mostly games that were available on ps4, except now I have a shittier looking homescreen.
Still kills that I have a 1gb/s internet and a great TV but the playstation store shows ads in 120p.
- Comment on I don't have a purpose in life and feel like a robot. This cannot be good for my mental health, but I don't know how or what to change. How do I change? 1 week ago:
Upsticks and leave. Whereever you are you can probaly go and do wha you do somewhere else. I would pick a whole other country, you could pick ones that align with your interests like philosophy and cooking - places where there is history or active communities in those spaces.
As for making friends, join clubs. Start running, playing board games, cold water swimmimg, etc.
If you are looking for purpose and you don’t mecessarily care about money you could make a huge impact in charitable works. If you don’t like human contact you could volunteer with animals.
You are at a crossroads in that you feel jilted and stuck but in reality you have nothing keeping you in one place. If you save 70% of your earnings for multiple years you are in a position to just stop working while you figure it out. You are in a position to take a pay cut and find something you enjoy.
I know a few people who were in similar spots and one became a data analyst for a charity - less hours and he can see changes being made by his hand - and the other travels to meet the elderly to record and archive their memories for posterity.
You could do absolutely anything.

Hated him since.

I wrote to spotify because I was a premium customer and my whole launch page was full with that cunt when scorpion released. I have never intentionally played his songs or visited his page on spotify.
Drake has absolutely done this to a headwrecking extent.
- Comment on Jon Watts Explains Demise Of George Clooney & Brad Pitt ‘Wolfs’ Sequel After Streaming Pivot: “Apple Didn’t Cancel…I Did, Because I No Longer Trusted Them As A Creative Partner” 3 weeks ago:
He probbaly did, he signed on with them under the impression a theatrical release was part of it and theybdidnt deliver.
Take a second to zoom out and see that you are defending a corporation, the richest in the world, for how they treated a creative in a creative space.
Id be upset if I was him too.
- Comment on I just watched the wrong version of Drive (2011), and didn't realize until the last 10 minutes. Any similar stories? 3 weeks ago:
Any necessary subs should be hard coded.
- Comment on Denzel Washington: Ridley Scott Is Long 'Overdue' for an Oscar 3 weeks ago:
Unnecessary comment given we benefitted greatly from both as consumers
- Comment on I am a very liberal person and I have very liberal children, except for one. I'm pretty sure my Gen Z son has been taken in by fascist doctrine. What can I get him for Christmas? 3 weeks ago:
A lot of young men are sucked into this world, what you have described is exactly what I took OP to be looking for.
They might get them a membership to a gym or tools for a hobby that allows them to socialise outside of online.
Op mever called their son a fascist or mentioned they want them to believe the same thing. Fascism is harmful, thats why even the fascists call the others fascists, it is not a bad idea to want to realign someone’s viewpoint with reality.

Which is justified in all fairness, firefox is too dependent on monopoly for support to be competitive going forward

Good. He is a fascist committing a genocide to keep himself in power.

I enjoy movie trailers, its all the other trailers I hate. Agree to removing them.
- Comment on Daniel Craig Wants Netflix to Put ‘Knives Out 3’ in Theaters for More Than Just One Week: ‘Hopefully, They Will Push It Out a Bit’ 1 month ago:
Release them at the same time, leave it in as long as it is making moeny.
These movies are ideal for streaming, it isnt massive spectacle. Streaming epics suck I miss thrillers,comedies and dramas and that is what we need on streaming.

“The American Experiment” amazing how full of shit this thinking is, basically american exceptionalism
- Comment on "The American experiment endures," Biden said. "We're going to be OK." 1 month ago:
Very valid point, just goes to show the hyperbolic shit flinging that is the core of American politics.
- Comment on Serious statement: I don't understand the argument that not voting for Harris was the morally correct thing to do, because of Gaza. Why does anyone believe this? 1 month ago:
Exactly whatbwas the compromise? The entire genocide/atrocity has occured om herself and Biden’s watch. She then failed to disance herself from the policy and did not take a position that aligned with people concerned about supporting a genocide.
Is Trump worse on this topic? Almost certainly.
Entitled people are the ones that felt they could speak over the valid concerns of the public because “I am the lesser of two evils so you have to vote for me.” Turned out well, the US continues its fownward trajectory and to be an embarrassment all because of…supporting a genocide. It wasnt even a difficult one, a remedial foreign policy issue fucked Kamala and she can have her shame for it.
The entitled people are those who insist the conscientious objectors should have put their concerns aside.
- Comment on "The American experiment endures," Biden said. "We're going to be OK." 1 month ago:
They are shit but they cant be alarmist reactionaries either. They need change but trying to encourage stability and console people isnt the worst

I just got it, cant say it is even 70 bucks worth of fun. Spend more time as Miles and Peter on a bike or watching cut scenes than I do as spidey.
- Comment on Ubisoft boss says it knows players think it has an 'inconsistency in quality,' so it delayed Assassin's Creed Shadows to flip that script 1 month ago:
The most upsetting thing is that they threw out anything resembling a decent narrative to draw out the series with diminishing returns. We never got closure on the templars and modern storylines are ignored now. We could have had closure and then just had everything in animus after.
- Comment on PS5 Pro Games to Scale Better Than PS4 Pro's, Says Dev; Maxed PCs Cost 3-5x Times, Can't Be Compared 1 month ago:
If you go over the price of a ps5 pro on a PC, you are likely interested in gaming enough to save the difference by having more than one marketplace, not to mention not be advertised to constantly and have more support for avoiding antifeatures like always online conditions of play.

Yeah they get reamed on roaming, speeds and data caps on top of it. Its crazy.
They be like “we earn more” and then also have to pay 12000 for medical insurance, 1000 for terrible internet and then a host of localised taxes.

- Comment on The Tesla Robotaxi is Confusing... 2 months ago:
Literally said he will shave his head if they pull of what they claim. Pointedly saying he doesnt believe them, mentions the promoted release and price of the cybertruck against reality. Saying they could be the ones to pull it off isnt ridiculous, they have huge backing and to his credit Musk, as awful as he is, does move fast and break things and sometimes get a win. See spacex yesterday.
