Expensive, came out at the worst time due to COVID, got eaten up by scalpers, and few exclusives. What did they expect?

I used to work at Walmart. For a long time I thought better pay would make the suffering worthwhile and for a while it did. But eventually the complete breakdown of management (salaried to be exact, I was an hourly supervisor) and processes due to an over focus on Online Grocery Pickup, made me even more miserable. I left for a more fulfilling job where, for a while, I was making less money (more per hour, but less due to not working a full year).

No amount of money would ever sway me to go back to retail, but if it was just a money issue, I may not have left.

I mean, it also makes sense numbers wise. Republicans still need to pick their guy, democrats literally have one person to give money to.

Great Value used to have an amazing 5 cheese and bacon white pizza… can’t find it anymore though.

Rayman 2 was a 3d platformer. I think the 3rd one was as well, but never played it so I can’t be sure.

I can understand woth this information companies wanting to charge more, but I feel like standards need to be higher and refunds guaranteed. They can’t ask us to spend 100’s of dollars on half-complete, buggy messes of games AND also want to charge for DLC and have micro-transactions.

To the Trump’s committing crimes is as natural as breathing, it may not be that easy.

Agreed, the headline makes it sound like he’s trying to protect Trump, the article (as far as I am making sense of it) is saying he will take him to court, but not because Biden asked him to.

Every now and then I think about this and I keep going back to Yooka Laylee. In theory that game should be everything people want from a 3D collect-a-thon platformer, but something (at least for me) felt wrong. I think the game is too big. Like, the developers in this modern era had all this space to go, “I can fit everything,” whereas in the past on there were much harder limits. Sometimes a limit forces creative solutions that feel better. Kinda the same idea of a huge open world with nothing in it vs a small map filled with things to discover.

A child’s… game? Kids often at school or sleep overs will spread and test the rumor of summoning Bloody Mary. In a dark room, while looking at your reflection, you say “Bloody Mary,” three times.

The low light of the room and the human brain’s tendency to use short cuts makes your eyes perceive a distorted reflection of yourself after you stare at the reflection for a while.
