I don't think that's true anymore. Going all digital, even on Nintendo's eShop, most third party games are dirty cheap during sales which happen quite frequently. Most games I've looked at go on sale every other month. Of course, they are still stingy as fuck with their first party stuff.

Some more 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim.

I only focused on the story this week, but didn't have much time anyway. Went from ~21% to ~44% completion.

With each new character I follow, the story just seems to get better. I'm excited to get the full picture eventually - but I also feel like I'll need to play a good old linear RPG afterwards.

As for the weekend, I played a lot of God Eater 3. About halfway through the story, I think.

On paper, the gameplay has a few problems. Almost all enemies seem to have some badly telegraphed AOE attacks or chain some quick dashes across the area together. Getting hit is mostly unavoidable. At the same time, the game is quite easy. Missions rarely take longer than 5 minutes - some monsters yielding after just a minute. But despite this, the Monster Hunter formula is just inherently fun and there a many ways to customize your character. So even if you don't care for the story, there's always a motivation to jump into the next mission right away.

Unlike Monster Hunter, crafting is rather easy, and you can get most weapons/shields without replaying any missions. But you still can and will be rewarded for grinding, because some of your moves will gain EXP by using them. There are about 10-20 skills per weapon, and you can equip 3 at the same time.

I think they want to intimidate others, but honestly giving him this much of a spotlight should be the dream of anyone thinking about attacking another CEO for attention.

As always, you guys are way too fixated on size.

It's entirely his fault for not being a multi-billion dollar company which actively invests in better ratings. In capitalism, there is no fairness - there is only money.

If revealing the tax records of a president is equally as much a threat to your democracy as an armed mob storming the capitol, your democracy sucks. Well, either that or the judge is outrageously biased and should be fired immediately. Maybe both.

Doesn't work, since they are fulfilled sequentially.

Do the opposite of my next wish. -> Fulfilled, he is set to do the opposite next.

Don't fulfill my 3rd wish. -> Fulfilled, the wish does effectively nothing and he's got one left that will be fulfilled. All instructions from the first wish are done with and discarded.

Ignore my first wish. -> Fulfilled, there is nothing left to be ignored about his first wish anymore since it's already done. The wish does nothing and he successfully wasted all 3 by trying to be a smart ass.

It's funny how 'getting an abortion' is the most atheist thing the artist could think of - I believe that's not even forbidden in the Bible?

The last panel applies to every other social media, just replace the spying country.

I've got class war, which is a real doozy.

Looking at this image, every child could easily point out who's evil here. Do they not see it?

...so they got rid of awards in favor of adding arrow shaped awards?

Gonna be real honest here, I would have taken that in a heartbeat. It's an open source project, I could disappear with my money and the project could be continued from a different fork without ads. The only thing you're really sacrificing is your reputation and with enough money I don't care.

"Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life."

or

"Do what you're passionate about."

Just no. Most things I like don't pay well and I started to resent the others while doing them professionally. Turning your hobby into your job is like setting your favorite song as your alarm. That's my experience at least.

That's depressing as fuck.

The internet. We've had a solid few years, but it has become a giant heap of shit for the most part.

Back then, not everything was an AI generated, SEO, ad riddled, interaction fishing, time wasting, data collecting nightmare with auto-playing videos and a dark pattern employing cookie banner.

That's so much smarter than voting for far right shitstains to 'protest'. Would love to see this all over Europe instead of the rise of fascism.

You can save so much money with CAD if you neither factor in your time to actually learn it or the cost of the printer itself.

Makes crime even better in comparison.

That's not only a search engine problem in itself - websites also got worse in general to appeal to googles algorithm. Which means that other search engines would show similar crap, unfortunately.

I'm all for hating on landlords, but the poor dog did nothing wrong.
