They’re actively striking, wtf are you expecting?

This looks like a cool device. Too bad it’s gonna be loaded with Samsung bloatware.

It’s possible that good ergonomics and balance can make something feel lighter than it is, especially in comparison to a device with less good ergonomics and balance.

Not saying that’s what’s happening here, just saying it’s not impossible.

You may want to look into specialist counseling. Tinnitus can’t be cured but there are definitely techniques to help you ignore the symptoms and focus elsewhere so they fall into the background.

I feel that you’ve severely misrepresented or misunderstood why people don’t show up to things. Assuming that they’re just addicted to instagram or whatever is such a crappy take.

Most adults are tired. They’re under paid, over worked, over stressed, and just plain worn down. The weight of a world designed to crush them has done its job very well.

People don’t show up because they’re depressed and stuck in a hole they don’t know how to get out of.

These posters should be illegal.

3 mostly solved this, it was way more reasonable. 2 was a great game with fantastic voice acting that was really diminished by the character models.

It’s frustrating that a small number of really good franchises are locked into the Nintendo bullshit business model.

Xenoblade Chronicles, Zelda, Mario, and a couple of other series running on Steam Deck without the emulation nonsense would make me tremendously happy.

I feel attacked by some of the popular narrative here. I’ve been using em dashes for years and I don’t want to stop, but now that’s “AI” suddenly.

The reasons are many, but the main one is to ensure we provide an absolutely unique experience each and every year.

From the company that brings you the same fucking game year over year, with paid dlc to get the same maps from old games again.

Yeah, that’s the one.
