It’s…not great. But it’s one of those “not great” games I can’t seem to stop playing. It’s a mech based extraction shooter. The shooting is floaty and all over the place, the loot is either materials for making things or crystals that become currency once you extract.

The only choice it really limits from the publisher is the choice to decide to stop supporting a game out of nowhere. This new plan would just make it so you have to eventually plan to sunset the game from its “live” elements.

Neutral and Chaotic Evil.

Two years later but who cares?! I’m ready!

I think…

I think this is it. We’re in the “coughing up blood” stage of Xbox divesting from hardware and turning into just a publisher.

And I do see the points that you’re making and I do agree with them on the whole. The problem is that you’re stating those facts in a instance of someone just looking for commiseration about not being able to do something that helps alleviate some of the stress of day-to-day life. For lack of a more accurate phrase, You misread the room.

And you are correct if you’re looking at a purely economic standpoint finding some way of streaming a movie is usually more cost-effective than going to a movie theater. But that discredits the event that going to see a movie is going to see a movie usually entails going with someone be that friends or significant other (sometimes you go alone), possibly getting you know some popcorn and a soda or a slushie, and experiencing it on a massive screen with a sound system and the event of it.

There’s an older joke about being able to afford things that might put this into light for you; “I wish I had the money to afford an expensive Italian sports car. I don’t want to buy one, I just want to be able to afford it.”

“I was just given the opinions from people that I didn’t ask for who felt they were entitled to force it on me.”

As a straight dude it just made me like bratty women.

For you sir, I will. But I did not think it was necessary.

For sure.

HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Acclimate he says! Buddy, I’ve lived in SC since I was 11. Before that I was born and raised in MA. You will not see me outside during the summer down here. Still, after all these years(I’m 38). And if you do, I am not happy about it.

Nevermind what I said then.

I bet they throw amazing parties. Nice food, drinks that aren’t all bud light and shots, music is a background thing and not something you have to compete with for conversation, maybe a bored game or card game.

Everything.

I fucking hate the summer.

The Highlander theme begins to play

Have to say I agree.

Indeed.

There’s a difference between having enough to eat and having enough healthy food to live well. I’m sure you could survive on like on &100 per person per month if you wanted to eat ramen and canned meat. But throwing in fresh fruits and veggies runs that number up.
