So they’re replacing a sycophant with another sycophant nepobaby with SDE.

People of both genders in Indonesia (66%) and Malaysia (60%) were most likely to agree with the statement, compared with 23% in the US and 13% in Great Britain.

So I question how much of this actually takes into account massive cultural differences and how that can skew the results since this is apparently a global survey.

Because that was the beginning of the adventure game era where there was no concept of game design and ensuring that the games made logical sense, hence the birth of “moon logic”, thanks Roberta. These games were also made to be obtuse because games were very expensive back then and making obscure logic was an incentive to make things more “worth” it, often intending to make the game last months of play time to solve their “logic” puzzles and you had to be in tune with the game designer to get them.

Not to mention that due to intention or lack of game design, these games were notorious for allowing you to put yourself into a unwinnable state with no way to correct it, things like Space Quest with the alien kiss of death that won’t trigger until the very end of the game or that Kings Quest game where you had one shot to throw a boot at a cat or you’d be dead man walking.

Not being able to finish these games wasn’t even unusual back then without the help of friends or BBS. Heck I had games adventure games I bought from that era that I never finished until the got re-released on Steam.

Isn’t it hard to fight on your knees?

It’s a recipe for extra White rice.

This has got to be the whitest conversation about cooking rice I’ve seen in a while.

I guess we’ll see how that goes come September timeframe.

A PC where I can’t install what I want? WTF is the point of that bullshit.

Thanks but I’ll stick to my steam deck for my portable Linux computing needs where I can do what the hell I want.

I’m right there with you. I’m past the point of wanting to own a console for the exclusives, if they never get released and there’s no emulator available, I’m absolutely okay with never playing them.

Closing the gate after lighting the barn on fire.

I wish it didn’t take vocal and large public backlash to do the simplest of moral things.

Yup. And now due to GaaS only on the company owned server, this game will never be preserved and playable for those few that would like to play it.

Don’t forget there’s also the across the board tariffs that are still in place.

I think n AG Karen said it was over 9000 dollars.

So how is this supposed to bring prices down again?

Absolutely. I’m really at my limit of the whole blue no matter who bullshit after this round of elections and capitulation.

No point in harm reduction of you can’t even stand up to war crimes when it matters.

Also, what kind of a fucked up person stats a war and is casually at a giving gold course? I mean that’s just all kinds of pathetic to declare a war, looking school kids while you’re off on yet another golf vacation instead of needing there making the tough calls, just absolutely fucking pathetic.

Look at him in that picture, nothing epic fury there as he looks like a corpse left in the river too long.

I mean look at that solid SecOps with that curtain separating them and their secure comms from the rest of the international golfers that are definitely not spies.

Ah, gotcha. My bad.

Couldn’t happen to a better fascist supporter.

This is going to make the Dropkick Murphys concert I’m going to just that much better with this news.
