When he said nug, I thought for sure he was going to make ‘egg nug’.

It took me a second. I don’t really care for “spectrum” being universally used to represent specifically the autism spectrum. Obviously there are other spectrums, most everything can probably be defined by a spectrum.
- Comment on There are Minimum Wages, Why Not a Maximum Wage? 1 month ago:
Absolutely, even at something like 100 * min wage. Still a hell of a lot less than what’s happening today.

I’m curious what percentage of surviving presidents are also voting for Harris.

On Mobile devices, I simply don’t use the homepage. I always disable it and use a blank page.
- Comment on New Playstation firmware is going to make it harder to play games offline. 2 months ago:
To be fair, I’m pretty sure that’s how PS5 handled that scenario even before this update.

I took it as the image looks vaguely like she’s looking at a piece of mail or a paycheck with a concerned expression on her face, befitting of the general content of the article.

I saw this recently and would like to point out that this is actually from last election.

I’ve heard good things. I’ve been watching for it to go on sale.
- Comment on How did Call of Duty get to this point? 3 months ago:
I believe they’re referring to the slide and dive mechanics. AFAIK considering this is the first game I’ve played in awhile, you can now sprint, slide, and dive in any direction.
Think like strafe sprinting and diving around a corner as you turn your aim around behind you to shoot at someone you just dove passed.
- Comment on How did Call of Duty get to this point? 3 months ago:
The gameplay has changed so little over the years but that’s because it’s unfortunately pretty solid.
I played a lot when I was younger but stopped because I didn’t have the money, hard drive space, or internet bandwidth to keep up with the new games and updates.
With that said, I actually jumped into this beta since it was included in Game Pass and it reminded me of CoD of my youth.
Will I every give them anymore more money? Nah.
Will I play it some more via Game Pass? Maybe.
My biggest complaint is the ecosystem is cancer. They have CoD HQ that acts as a launcher but can only handle a couple games and if you select to play one of the games it can’t play, it fully closes and launches the game you want to play.
Can you simply download and launch only the game you want to play? Nope.
This is all to get your eyes on as much of their content as possible to really squeeze out those last few dollars.
The amount of players I saw with the skins that cost them $100 minimum was crazy. These are very likely the same people that buy every game every year and are precisely the target demographic they’re marketing towards.
- Comment on What are some game series you would like to see revived? And if possible, which entry should the new game follow from? 3 months ago:
+1 for Populous.
But my answer to this every time is Red Faction (1, specifically. While I did enjoy Guerrilla, I want to see a throw back to more fully destructible environments on next gen tech).

I want to day you could probably lump Shein with those as well but I have nothing to back that up except it has the same scammy feel.
- Comment on Anon checks out mobile gaming 4 months ago:
They literally only have to pander to a small handful of whales to justify pay to win microtransactions. I’m sure the average player never spends any money on it.

That’s a good reason. Have fun!

- Comment on Devs should not be "forced to run on a treadmill until their mental or physical health breaks", says publisher of Manor Lords, citing how gamers seem to be trained to expect endless content work now 5 months ago:
Alternatively
Game Publishers: Release unfinished game that gets horrid backlash until they work overtime to patch it to a slightly more playable hell, get caught in an update loop, game inadvertantly becomes live service.
