It's not even a puzzle! It's just waiting!

Hasn't every other generation come with a price decrease and a bigger size reduction? This seems like it's really just a new model.

The biggest upgrade is the SSD size. But digital is getting more expensive (but also has the disc drive option). Seems like it's just not enough upside for anyone to get excited over compared to previous generations.

It really feels like a FOMO relief for people who want to go all digital. Just in case you want to get discs later.

In other words, Sony wants you to buy digital and don't worry so much about it.

Caring for the people? Sounds like woke radical leftist Marxist propaganda (actual shit I hear on a daily basis).

The Republican party could stop trying to hurt people at any moment. Hell, I'm in a red state and our last Republican governor wasn't too bad. But it's all just hate now. And anyone who opposes that hate gets more hate from people like you.

Honestly, I wouldn't even say the second part about conservatives. In my experience, most centrists agree with Democrats on most issues. But Republicans try their hardest to make politics a mudslinging contest so centrists become disinterested. That evens the playing field.

All that to say yes, I agree with you that they are uninformed. And it's caused by the most vile of the Republicans because they can't compete if centrists stayed engaged.

I feel like developers have completely given up on optimizing games. Any game should be able to run on the SS. Most games can run on last gen consoles

2 of my favorites of all time. Final Fantasy VIII and Morrowind.

Final Fantasy VIII, to my knowledge, never once tells you that enemy levels scale. This wouldn't be a problem if you never grinded fights (for exp, AP, items, etc). I think the intention was that you would never need to grind so you never would (the game is actually super easy). But people do grind, and you can level up very quickly if you want to.

Morrowind just drops you into the world, for better or worse. There are some prompts to familiarize you to menus. But that's it. Most of the basic functions are self explainable. Except fatigue. Fatigue affects everything you do. And you won't realize that it's the reason whatever you're trying to do isn't working. Most players get frustrated and quit because they can't hit anything with their weapon, not realizing it's because their stamina bar is drained.

Or his "stolen election" claims leading up to Jan 6th. People forget. But the whole thing was initially advertised as a reveal of damning proof.

They're letting DeSantis carry that torch, like they did with Trump with his open corruption, hate, lack of accountability, racism, etc. If he wins then suddenly it's okay because it's just politics, both sides, just an opinion, etc.

Not sure what you're talking about with the CIA plant stuff. But it looks like he did his time and reformed after smuggling aliens. Good for him.

Finding alternate ways of playing a game, whether by doing a self-imposed challenge, or just playing a game differently than it was intended, are a good way of spicing up games you've played hundreds of times.

Or in some cases, playing the game how it's meant to be played. Like in a lot of RPGs, you're not really supposed to grind.

I played Final Fantasy VIII without grinding cards, draws, items, or anything until end game content. It was relieving to not have to worry about any of it.

Also, he has done surprisingly well and pushed for a lot of progressive policies. I think she's right to call out people for saying he has done nothing. And that doesn't mean he's beyond criticism (judges are blocking his online immigrant application requirement thank God).
