One of them is no keyboard and mouse support on PC IIRC.

Google screwed up like a lot of companies do. YouTube was never profitable to run. They were just burning through cash to keep the lights on and become the number one video host online.
Internally there became a mandate to try and turn it into a profit making machine and the advertisers caught wind so they stepped in with their demands knowing that they were going to be the source of the profits. This is where the content restrictions started to happen as videos needed to become ad friendly.
I wish YouTube would have figured out another path to help provide the service and pay video creators. At least with Premium you don’t get ads and Sponsor Skip means you don’t see embedded VPN and game sponsors.
It’s already dead, please leave the corpse alone.
It is kinda sad given the legacy of the show, it almost made it to 30 and was the place of so many big industry moments (good and bad). Things have become more spread out now across GamesCom, PAXs, TGS, GDC, Develop and the many I’m forgetting.
I can get the argument that we really don’t need much of an in-person event given that stuff can be streamed instantly around the world now, we don’t need to rely on people setting up cameras in front of TVs to show off noisy gameplay footage, but the fact that so many others shows still exist proves that there is a want for in-person events.
E3’s death kinda came about because it got chipped away from all sides. There were better places for industry deal making to be done (GDC), Big publishers peeled off to do their own thing, and the expensive mark up that hit the other companies no longer appealed as they could get what they needed from PAX and GamesCom.
Go to the gym. Running on the treadmill listening to an audiobook is great I can just zone into the book.
First name that came to mind when I saw the thread title. His new Weird Stuff in a Can episode was a fun journey.
Siliconera: Armored Core VI may be the best game FromSoftware has made to date
That statement carries a megaton of weapon-grade weight upon it.
I cancelled my sub after I kept getting bombarded by some Michelle Obama podcast/book thing. Popped up so many times over the course of a week that I just yolo’d out and went with Youtube Premium (which gives Youtube Music as part of the deal).
Stefan Milo - Been really enjoying his videos “digging” into archaeology and pre-history.
A recent food discovery (Well within the last year) I made was Charlie Anderson highly recommend his series on creating NY style pizza.
Aaah, so it’s a homage to Cronenberg’s 1975 movie Shivers
Hobbes had developed a parasite that was “a combination of aphrodisiac and venereal disease that will, hopefully, turn the world into one beautiful mindless orgy.”
Not dying.
Anyone comment on the general writing style? I didn’t gel with the Divinity games. Loved the gameplay systems but found that the tone of the writing stopped me from getting sucked into the world unlike the original BG games.
Hide for 30 days is not the option I want YouTube. I blocked them on desktop and have trained my brain to ignore them as I use the iOS app.
Us (humans) vs. Them (aliens)
Chair can make a big difference. I switched from a basic office chair to a Herman Miller and it was night and day. I can sit in that thing all day without noticing, my old chair had me wanting to stand and stretch all the time and still left me with an aching back.
Great write up! I thought I was familiar with this game, but clearly not. I guess the name just has that familiar vibe to it. Thinking back to what I was playing in '87 this would have really stood out as something different. I’m sad I missed out on it at the time.
I had my fake account deactivated for using a made up name a few years ago. I was forced to giving it a real fake name instead of a comedy one. Haven’t used it years now so I don’t even know if it’s still working.
Added to my circle!
I cancelled back on the first price hike they did. Just wasn’t enough for the handful of times I used it per year. They had me at the point where I kinda didn’t care I was paying, but the price hike gave me a wake up call. Since then they’ve continued to up the prices and I’ve continued to not give a shit. Netflix originally won me back from bothering to pirate stuff cause it was so good and easy, now the opposite is true in the streaming space.
