The pay to win mechanics of going outside are bullshit, the pvp balance is fucked, and the exhaustion mechanics are a nightmare.

The lifetime of modern SSDs, even for frequently updated games, is comparable to an HDD. The game updates themselves will also not be a major contributor to the lifetime writes of an SSD. More than that, though, is the performance improvement. If you have been gaming on only an HDD you would not believe the improvement in performance that switching to an SSD will immediately net you. Even if the lifetime of an SSD was noticeably lesser, which I reiterate is not the case, the switch to an SSD is absolutely worth it every time.

They say any publicity is good publicity. They are wrong. There are countless cases of people who are widely known, and just as widely reviled. Like it or not, Trump is not someone who will disappear into obscurity, through efforts to accomplish that or otherwise, for decades. He’s made too big of a mess to just be overshadowed and forgotten entirely. However, what that lasting legacy will actually be is still mutable. He might go down as just a controversial one term president with a smug smile. Or, the image of his scowling mugshot might become historically synonymous with every future memory of him.

I’m sure they would love to, and now that they’re not the only ones who can, I say go for it. But this isn’t special or news, EA has always made money on Star Wars games. Obviously some vague statement about wanting to make more, particularly following their latest successful franchise, is to be expected.

My desire to see the exclusive Star Wars license pried out of EA’s claws was never because I’d hoped they would never make another one, only that I hoped other studios would get the chance for themselves.

Meanwhile Poland lives in a constant state of Wishing a Motherfucker Would, building up an arsenal and fostering the will to use it. They have no intention of just being a speed bump this time.

We use Katana Bombs when collateral damage needs to be minimized. Wagner wouldn’t get that lucky.

Holy shit. Just a minute scrolling those comments, I kept thinking it had to be satire… but no. Fucking hell.

Are they working on a patch to uninstall the game and replace it with a different, better game?

Exactly, the Humble slider should mean the lowest but instead they get a whole 11 cents more than the Charity option, and 4 cents more than the developers. It’s preposterous. When the sliders are that close, yet there’s a whole 3% difference, it’s Asshole Design. Obviously the best answer is to use some other service that doesn’t even bother giving anything to charity at all. The good can get fucked, Perfect or Nothing.
