To get in-game drops as far as I know.

Yeah, maybe a bit of hyperbole on my part as well. Have a good Saturday evening!

Ahh, I only meant to say that I might be living in the past. I thought the bloatware came from Samsung since what I heard on the street matched my experience. Maybe it’s time to borrow that hatchet though.
To be fair it wasn’t a big issue. It was just like five apps that I were stuck with. But back in the days with less memory overall it really grinded my gears. These days I’m not sure I’d even notice.

Experience, to be fair though I last owned one 3+ years ago and that one was 3 ish years old.

After four years there are no more security updates coming from OnePlus, unless someone started doing the work themselves. This is the only reason I updated my last phone.
- Comment on What android phones do you recommend and why? 1 year ago:
No security updates though.

Why wouldn’t you recommend OnePlus though? I have a 9 pro which I enjoy. I really don’t miss the Samsung’s bloatware.
- Comment on Valve is now reversing VAC bans due to AMD drivers in CS2, according to patch notes 1 year ago:
Sure, there’s a possibility. But since it hasn’t happened in 10+ years I doubt it’s a problem.
- Comment on Valve is now reversing VAC bans due to AMD drivers in CS2, according to patch notes 1 year ago:
I think a VAC ban only bans you from that one game, at most from other games with VAC. I got VAC banned in modern warfare 2 10+ years ago, but it hasn’t had an impact on my account/other games. More than a notice on my profile that it happened.
… just to add, the ban was justified. I went into a game and just held down the shoot button with a plethora of cheats on to see what it was like. It took all the fun out of it and cost me a game I like. Not recommended. : )
- Comment on Madden should not be 70$ 1 year ago:
Depends on the studio of course, but I bet in the general case they wouldn’t be payed more if the price was lowered. It’d be fun to investigate the margins but I don’t care enough to do so.
The games I play the most are actually from reputable studios and/or indie devs whom I don’t mind supporting. Except football manager, but I don’t buy new revisions and have clocked enough hours to feel ok with the price.
- Comment on Madden should not be 70$ 1 year ago:
I don’t agree. Development costs money and I’m willing to pay for it. I usually compare it to other daily things, such as nice restaurant visits or such. Things costs money.
Just because I’m curious, what would you feel to be a fair price for one of those games?

Depends on the playtime you get out of it. 140hrs+? Great value.
