Not really, Ubisoft.

Much like music, movies and TV, you just need to make sure your content is both available for purchase for people who don't want a subscription and consistently available on a subscription service for those that do.

It's when you start fucking around and taking them off again because somebody else is offering you more for exclusivity that we get pissed off and just pirate things. You can't expect Assassin's Creed Black Flag to still be making you a noticeable amount of money, but a subscriber can rightfully expect it to be on your service.

I'm of the opinion that if a game is on a subscription service, be it PSN or Game Pass, then it should stay there except in very extreme circumstances. A game can take weeks to play through, and it's only going to take one large game going AWOL at 90% completion for me to sour on the whole idea.

Massive Coronary 2024.

The only sane choice.

Israel operate on a revenge based policy. It really is not about the hostages.

Gwent.

I didn't like the standalone version, but the in-game one had just the right level of puzzle to keep me at it.

No, because it was never about the boomers.

OK, but that doesn't make it affordable or relevant.

It's like comparing a Ferrari and a Lamborghini. It doesn't matter because the world runs on Toyota Corollas.

Additionally, VR lives and dies on software.

Self checkout is just fine, as long as you have enough of them.

Even better are the handsets you can take around the shop and scan as you go, as nobody wants to really be doing an entire trolley at the self checkout.

Israel only has one type of "serious conversation" and it usually involves explosives.

Honestly surprised things haven't started going boom in Qatar. They weren't shy about doing it in Beirut.

I honestly don't know what GAME even sell any more.

The only store in my town closed ages ago. I think the two supermarkets are the only place left selling them new, and good old CEX for when you need to offload a pile of stolen goods.

The nearest one is inside a Sports Direct.

Don't you know how much it costs to heat a 15 bedroom mansion?

I assume it weighs it at the start and knows it's dry when it weighs the same again.

It doesn't know what the material is. Some dry quicker than others.

Depends how many pubes are in it.

Living like a pauper for a few years and paying the mortgage off early.

Also not joining the rat race, and buying new shiny shit for the sake of it.

That's still one up from the breakfast cob someone at my work had from Greasy Lil's.

Nothing like a cob full of raw egg spunk to start your day.

Nobody is quite sure why everyone calls it Greasy Lil's. There's only two people that have ever worked there, and neither are called Lil.

Yeah, I've got a self filling one. Nice to run a bath without even getting out of bed. Although if you forget to put the plug in first, you'll arrive to an empty bath.

Oh, have Gen Z rediscovered the thermos flask?

Did the same thing with Dubya.

"That other guy is terrible" is a really bad way to go into an election.

Neither side knows how to fix things, but one of them lies and says it does. Being the incumbent doesn't help either, because if you do say you know how to fix things the obvious reply is "well why haven't you done it then?"

Pippin is clearly the best character.

Yeah, as somebody with an ever growing pile of apps that stop working every time I upgrade my phone, I wouldn't count on it.

If somebody doesn't take it over and rebuild for every pointless Android change, it will eventually disappear.

Is it just a 70% smaller battery?
