Funko Pops, to me.

I understand that some of them are fairly overpriced, but I also really like them as is. It doesn't work on all characters, but it sometimes work on a lot and there's so much representation and variety that it's good to have a few.

If people want to talk about waste of plastic and vinyl, they should bark at the companies who make teeny tiny figurines that serve no purpose and have so little detail that spending any money on them is a waste.

I was surprised when I learned that Pikmin 3 is often disliked or even hated. It's shamelessly my fave game of the series. I get that the story is shorter than it should be and it's more linear but it has this charm that's unmatched, and I enjoy the graphics style so much that it inspired several facets of my artstyle even. Also the mission mode is just the right difficulty and a ton of fun!

I don't think they're a problem at all. I didn't buy any lol.

Everyone wants to talk predatory, but for some reason admitting you might be taken in by consumerist garbage might be a bit too much.

I'm not the problem!

mountain of tacky crap

U2 for that album that they gave away for free

The same one that was installed on people's devices without their knowledge or consent? I think you're avoiding the real issue there.

Online sellers usually refuse to deal with funkos because the people who collect them are way too picky and hard to deal with.

"collectible" little vinyl figures from all sorts of franchises. TV shows, anime, video games etc.

Starfield. The game isn't bad, it just isn't as good and the game design was especially outdated for its release window. It's legitimately a better RPG than most Bethesda games.

I'm fairly confident modders will actually be able to salvage it despite its flaws.

Seconded. I actually enjoyed the game for what it was, almost Skyrim in space. Almost, don’t shoot me for saying that.

I had fun with the various factions, with constellation, and the story was reasonably unique but maybe not extremely enthralling.

That said, my expectations were basically zero. I purposefully ignore all prerelease hype about video games as it tends to ruin the actual experience of playing the game for the first time.
