Damn, can we escape the encroaching hellscape by transporting everyone back to 1998? 🫰

Check out Nile Red on Nebula, (or YT if that’s your bag). He makes American Cheese from the ground cheddar up and you can watch. Having done so, I agree with you.

Just adding support for this recommendation. I had 4 gaming headsets before this, and got this for about $140 on sale. It’s far and away the best sounding headset I’ve ever used for non-professional purposes. There are two caveats:

3.5mm jack works on most gaming consoles through the controller. And you can get a super cheap and small adapter from 3.5mm to USB-C if you want to use it with phone or other USB-C input. But if you need wireless this won’t do it.

They are open back style headphones. Meaning there’s a considerable amount of sound leakage into the room with you. Someone sitting next to you can hear every word of your voice chat or phone call. They sound really open airy and have a great sound-stage because of this, but it’s not great if you need privacy. They do make the Game One version with a closed back.

But zero was Majima at his least wacky. He spends most of it just being a regular Yakuza.

Legend of Kyrandia. 😭

Balatro high contrast mode is a godsend.

FWIW, a 20% drop is borderline catastrophic for a major company. The squeeze it puts on their supply chain, ability to make payroll, and interest rates on borrowing going up, it could be enough to create a death spiral. I think ubisoft is probably managed well enough to deal with this, but this is definitely a serious situation for them.

Look at it this way, Google stopped caring about their viewers as anything more than wallets to empty years ago. Now they’re going through the same cycle with advertisers. They don’t care if the ads land, or the targeting works, just that they can convince them to keep buying ad space.

Eventually the ROI will show as not worth it to the advertisers, but by then Pichai and the rest of the C-suite will be pulling the same scam at another company whose investors are more greedy and stupid than saavy.

Because the horrible truth of America now, is that CEOs and their ilk have stopped caring about creating value, or building a sustainable business model with long term revenue. Now they just look at witless investors as wallets to be emptied too.

That was a lame joke about the check mark. 😔

Why is Javascript on Twitter?

I don’t want to spoil anything, but if you decide that his back story has twisted him into a vengeful madman, you can uhh…get pretty crazy powerful with him late game.

Thank you for correcting my misinformaion. I have edited my post, while pointing out the error, My sincere apologies.

I feel somewhat the same on single player, but this is competitive GAAS, and they knew exactly what they were doing when they did it here. People who do this seriously already know every map, every spawn and every weapons characteristics within three days. (I’m wrong about this see below) This is simply another pay to win mechanic for the kind of people who play 12 hours a day, reach max rank in three days and hunt rookies who didn’t spend the extra money to play early.

I have been corrected and apologize for the mistake. It is not competitive and that mostly renders my point moot. I’m leaving this here for posterity.

Hey it’s Lemmy, so I will happily use this opportunity to blame rich people as well. I know people doing very well for themselves, who constantly, say, “yeah it sucks, but I’ve got the money and it doesn’t hurt me so who cares?”

Because they’re so completely unable to to think of ANYONE else in a different situation, or even remember their younger selves, that they will continue to incentivize predatory behavior because “fuck you, I got mine”, and they’re such huge pieces of self involved shit that they won’t delay their gratification for a split second to help out an entire industry’s consumers.

If that sound harsh, it’s been a shit day full of people just like that; decide on your own if it applies here.

You don’t say? 🤔
