- Comment on What's your favorite game you played this year? (Doesn't have to be released this year ) 11 months ago:
Super Mario Wonder is the best 2D Mario since Super Mario World. There is so much attention to detail and the polish on every aspect from the gameplay to the way enemies act and react.
Super Mario RPG is the ultimate remake. It kept absolutely everything about the original while adding a few minor gameplay enhancements. Best of all, the graphics look like the original CG readers from the 90s but with perfect modern sharpness.
Deathbulge Battle of the Bands was an unexpected favourite. It’s a light-hearted turned based RPG with Earthbound and Undertale vibes, an amazing soundtrack and interesting and humorous characters.
- Comment on Plummeting interest rate 11 months ago:
That’s legit the reason why Lara Croft is the star of Tomb Raider.
- Comment on 'There's almost nobody left': CEO of Baldur's Gate 3 dev Swen Vincke says the D&D team he initially worked with is gone, due to Hasbro layoffs 1 year ago:
TSR, which was the company that originally made D&D got bought by Wizards of the Coast, which made Magic the Gathering. Then Wizards got bought by Hasbro.
Every product you love has been acquired by a large company that got bought by a larger company and then turned to shit. Until the government stops blocking mergers and acquisitions, this trend will continue.

That touchscreen plays ads loudly as well.

- Comment on Every Franchise Xbox Now Owns After Buying Activision 1 year ago:
Blizzard has pretty much only made amazing games before Activision bought them. Activision also made a lot of good games back then. People couldn’t see how the merger would fick it up back then, yet it still did.
I expect Bethesda to get infected with the worst that Activion-Blizzard has to offer more so than the opposite.
- Comment on Every Franchise Xbox Now Owns After Buying Activision 1 year ago:
Blizzard would never have done that if Activision hadn’t been allowed to buy them. The new conglomerate will be worse than we anticipate in the same way Activion-Blizzard was.
- Comment on Microsoft’s Activision Blizzard deal approved by UK regulators 1 year ago:
There is no way that Gamepass is going to remain a good value once it’s past trying to get new members in the introduction phase. I would give it at most 2 years before the enshitification really takes hold. It could be merely months since they are trying to look good to regulators right now.
- Comment on You're basically losing money if you don't 1 year ago:
Don’t forget that you lose 3% to inflation every year, and even more when we are in hyper-inflation like we are now.
Gambling in Wall Street’s Casino is, by design, the only way to have a chance not to lose money.
- Comment on 31-year-old teacher quit her job. Now she works at Costco—and boosted her income by 50%: ‘I've never been happier' (these are not feel good stories, this is sad) 1 year ago:
The problem is living in a society that doesn’t educate it’s people.
- Comment on Why is the consumption of Meat considered bad 1 year ago:
It would be such a small but significant thing to pass a law requiring adding seaweed to their feed. Even if they passed the cost on, it would raise the price of meat insignificantly. It’s crazy that we haven’t done it yet. Same with making new roofs white to reflect light instead of absorbing it.
