Development isn’t being crippled. No one wants to develope because China makes them so much cheaper.

I’m against the massive payouts over changed convictions. It makes it less likely states will play ball with not fighting overturned convictions (except this missouri d-bag) and its oftentimes not the states fault they were wrongly convicted. Give her like $150k, and then like $50k a year from then on.

Are you confusing something? OP is claiming OLD millennials (born in the early 80’s, basically) prefer single player games.

You’re saying you’re a younger millennial that played LoL.

Well I have a few things to say to you. Older millennials were already adults before LoL existed. Like 25+ already.

LoL was just an offshoot of player created games made in a much older game called Warcraft 3.

Back in the WC3 days, some strategy pvp games existed and were popular, but they weren’t very similar to how it is now. Particularly that there would only be like 3 other players and that there was no mics.

When I say popular, they were still far from the norm. The average kid/teen gamer didn’t play them. Hell, in 1997 only 18% of US hoyseholds even had the internet.

Don’t act like a d-bag. Most kids before 1998 didn’t even have internet at home, and most kids in the 90’s were console gamers. Not PC.

Also, no, I’m not full of shit. US census data shows 18% of households had the internet in 1997, and if you don’t remember that most kids and teens around were gaming on consoles then you either lived under a rock, or you’re on here right now lying about your age.

Ultimately, you know you can’t be one of the best players of the game unless you’re around 18 and play the same game 50 hours a week, and you also aren’t paired up with completely random players, so you can’t really even get real feedback on how much better or worse you are than the average player, since games group you in with players similar to you (but will sometimes change that if it wants to slip you that dopamine to keep playing and hand you an easy win).

The creation of those Dota like games. Wc3 battle.net was amazing. So was starcraft and all the great turret defense games made in their.

I think someone like Newsom would be a better sell. Fact is, it’s a dangerous election and getting Republicans that don’t like trump very much to actually jump the fence a bit is going to be easier with a white man in his 50’s who isn’t too “extreme” of a leftist Democrat.

They could also choose someone from a swing state, too.

Ren & Stimpy spent it’s beginnings and all but it’s last season on nickelodeon at like 7 in the evening. You’d watch it, rugrats, and Doug, plus re’runs through the week. Now kinda like Rocko’s Modern Life, maybe it shouldn’t have been a show targeted at 10 year olds, but it was.

MTV’s other liquid shows like Big Head and Aeon Flux were never targeted or made for kids to watch. You were a 90’s teen/young adult if you were meant to be watching those shows.
