As someone out of the loop here, what does this mean here? Was it over powered?

A scientist in Goldeneye was called Doak. The scientists were named after the creative team, I wonder if it ks the same guy.

Now I dont know where I got te factoid though

AC is balls.and Ubisoft had its lunch eaten deservedly. Mirage was decent but it had the same physics issues that AC 2 had.

They killed a decent story and franchise.

Im guessing its differentiated on te basis that neither new entry supported the previous’ titles or peripherals. It is more an iterative improvement than a new console

Its a shit feeling tbh, I feel the whole industry is sliding in the wrong direction.

I turned on Hitman the other day and midway through a playthrough I got booted for loss of connection. It is a single player game. Finding it harder and harder to have a positive enough view to purchase games.

Oh man same for ps5, major let down. I let my psn lapse and I am just playing mostly games that were available on ps4, except now I have a shittier looking homescreen.

Still kills that I have a 1gb/s internet and a great TV but the playstation store shows ads in 120p.

Upsticks and leave. Whereever you are you can probaly go and do wha you do somewhere else. I would pick a whole other country, you could pick ones that align with your interests like philosophy and cooking - places where there is history or active communities in those spaces.

As for making friends, join clubs. Start running, playing board games, cold water swimmimg, etc.

If you are looking for purpose and you don’t mecessarily care about money you could make a huge impact in charitable works. If you don’t like human contact you could volunteer with animals.

You are at a crossroads in that you feel jilted and stuck but in reality you have nothing keeping you in one place. If you save 70% of your earnings for multiple years you are in a position to just stop working while you figure it out. You are in a position to take a pay cut and find something you enjoy.

I know a few people who were in similar spots and one became a data analyst for a charity - less hours and he can see changes being made by his hand - and the other travels to meet the elderly to record and archive their memories for posterity.

You could do absolutely anything.

Over the years I have accumulated subs that I dont necessarily want to give up on but no longer enjoy their direction as much. There is also a feeling tat if they are not in my subs I wont find the older content I love. A bit nostalgic I guess.

God youtube homepage sucks now, subbed to this guy for so long and he never shows up. I axtively search for him and it never gets the hint. It just shows random videos from a decade ago.

Im not fooled, I just think americans have been doing the whole emperors new clothes thing for a long time. It has always been built on nonsense and bravado and now it will be crippled by it. It is so very obvious that this is a mission of america’s enemies but it is deserved at this stage.

Upcoming…America been fucky for a long time.

There was no licensing with any physical media I bought. It had the FBI thing and a piracy thing but my country isnt obligated to enforce that. They were legitimately sold in my country with no mention of a license.

Only recently, like ps4 times have I had to tck a box when playing a game.

How do you figure that? I can go dump my N64 cartridge and play it on my PC. I can pass on my DVDs and vinyls until their materials degrade.

I have 1000mb and absolutely do not prefer to download my games. Mostly because it is licensing not purchasing.

Literally only bought Nintendo for Mario for twenty years. Before that they were competitive consoles so it was a preference thing.

Why would we care about this. Seems like it is unimportant

Lol as if that will stem much of anything

You’re right, people put up with him for too long.

Some supermarkets in Ireland have announced immediate removal of brands associated with him.

They will probably have it all online, cloud etc.

Which, given they actually have competition in the market, might mean they price competitively.

98% of the same library, hilariously.
