If something is against “national interest” and your president is trying to become an autocrat, that means they can essentially pick and choose what national interest is. This should be setting off alarm bells in EVERYONE’S head as an obvious grab for power.

I’m not american, so I don’t have direct skin in the game, but everyone on both sides of the political spectrum who don’t self identify as fascist should be against this.

If you don’t interpret this as something extremely dangerous, you need to have a sit down and really think about the implications.

It really was weirdly good.

LOL

1080p and 4k isn’t really a fair comparison for great earbuds and shit earbuds in my opinion. The comparison there is like 4k and 480p. There is a massive difference between the 2. I have had $30 earbuds that you couldn’t listen to a podcast on, and I currently have $250+ Bose earbuds that are fucking amazing for just about everything.

Unless of course you’re saying that these earbuds are in fact “1080p” quality. In which case, fair point. I have yet to see someone who’s actually used these and commented on the sound quality though. What I’ve seen from fairphone products is they are consumer friendly at the expense of quality.

Of course it’s going to be a shit take.

Totally valid.

You’d want people to pay you for using a product they consume, especially if it’s a quality product. You sound like you’re entitled to free shit just because someone made their “fair share” off a game, and I’m sure that fair share is whatever arbitrary number you deem valid, which I’m guessing is low.

I’m saying, pay developers if you enjoy their stuff, especially indie developers. Vote with your wallet. Make it known you enjoy their stuff, so they make more of it. If you want to pirate, feel free, I encourage it, but also pay people what their worth if you can afford to do so. That’s my main point.

For you, do whatever the fuck you want because you’re not interested in listening to logic or reasoning anyway.

And they deserve it for making great products, which should be supported if possible.

Just my 2 cents, but those are devs that should be supported if possible.

Helldivers 2 with friends.

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic. Hadn’t played since I was much younger. Forgot how fun it was to kick everyone off ledges.

Binding of Isaac - once I figure out how to get my GOG save file on my partner’s PC to sync with my PC…

Total War: Warhammer 3. Played this one on and off. A mod I love just dropped a patch so I’m bad into it for now, until CA fucks something up again.

Maybe an unpopular opinion but I liked DOS2 more than BG3. Not to say I don’t love BG3, but I love DOS2

I’m getting whiplash from your logic. You just accused another user of acting like you said tencent had larian on a leash, which we can all agree is not true. Then you go on to say Larian is going to lose its soul when tencent approaches them with a gacha game, as if larian would take them up on this like Tencent has any say in what Larian does.

Also, Hasbro isn’t selling DnD. Tencent is attempting to buy adaptation rights to the DnD IP, which may not even be true. By all accounts, WotC is the most profitable division of Hasbro. Sounds like you read another headline and didn’t read the article…

Frostpunk. That game gave me anxiety with the tough choices sometimes.

The point stands. Vote with your wallet.
