I have seen credits on that game probably three times since it's launch. Anytime they release it on a new platform I instinctively snap it up.

I do agree that the world feels pretty empty, but it is Mars in their defense. The gameplay loop is so good though. And sometimes there's no better feeling than grabbing a sledgehammer and leveling a building.

Hopefully you're able to make it through! There's a little bit of variety introduced to the environment around the half to three quarter mark.

Wiby, particularly the "surprise me" option is great for old school sites and that StumbleUpon feeling!

Worth checking the bias on the reporting here. Very right leaning for the majority of the outlets making these claims.

Nazi bullshit isn't free speech. That's a trash argument. You need to look inside and find what part of you is broken if you think otherwise.
Fuck Nazi anything. They don't have a right to free speech. They lost that when they became Nazi's.

I renewed by doing the $1 dollar deal again a year or two ago... racked up another 3 years at the time.

As a Game pass user from Day 1 I evangelized it to everyone I knew. Especially going in to this console generation.

Now though, I see no purpose to it. Microsoft has dropped the bag in a unbelievable way when it comes to dropping exclusives / first party games.

It's not so much the Netflix of games as it is the Tubi...

You know, that's fair. They haven't shit on us... yet. 😁

I get that for some users. In my case, 90% of what's in the catalog that I'd be interested in I already own. I know this isn't the standards, but it's what happens when you're an avid Steam Gamer with a Humble Sub and a collecting problem.

I joined Game pass to have Xbox live to play with my console buddies and for day one exclusive access. At this point, I've moved most of them on to PC and Xbox has done nada with my 5 or so years of subscription.

When companies deny us avenues to watch / purchase their products wtf do they expect to happen?

This looks fantastic! Thanks for the recommendation.

I unfortunately don't have MAX anymore after they dropped Westworld (and all the other crazy shit that happened around a year or so ago) so I may also have to borrow a copy from my friend the internet..

Edit: Looks like my son already put in a Requestarr for it and it's in Sonarr. The *arr stack really has changed the game after I was out of the scene for 10 or so years.

It's crazy how they fucked themselves out of revenue streams so completely.
Within 6 months of canceling all our streaming services, I was able to pick up 4x16tb HDD's for a JBOD connected to a NUC for about the same cost (likely less all said).

A lot of us that grew up sailing the seas became stable enough to afford the media we wanted and docked our ships. Now, I'm back on my favorite newsgroups like it was 2001.

There's that quote from GabeN, I won't repost it, but it's true. There's a serious service problem and the greed isn't helping. Now I've got a multi terabyte NAS and backup with a streaming services and a Steam account I'll never make through the backlog of.

All that said, when possible, I still by the stuff I like on physical, but even that is getting harder and harder anymore.

The biggest mistakes these shareholder appeasing cock puppets are making is thinking we don't have a choice anymore. We do and they are greater than they've ever been.

Unbelievable that there is incentive to do a tax write off for 10's of millions. When I make investments that don't pan out, I sure as hell don't get paid out.

They drink pretty much the whole movie. It was a game to drink along with them when my partner and I were younger.
