I have, but going by several reviews the Switch controller still faires the best for me and I hope the new one will do even better. There just isn't anything that can compete right now.

That's something at least. Now Nintendo needs to actually advertise their shop and those deals instead of yet another wave of retro ports.

Though it's probably worth mentioning I'm not going to buy a Switch 2 anyway. I'm more of an observer from the PC gaming sidelines.

I mean with those price tags you expect games to look better. Anything else would be ridiculous.

To be fair, there is no guarantee you‘ll be able to emulate Switch 2 games as soon and easily as Switch games. You just might, but we really don‘t know for sure.

It‘s interesting they abandoned physical media completely and nobody is talking about it. This makes them a direct competitor to Steam and well… let‘s just say I don‘t see 90% discounts in the Nintendo shop any time soon.

Plus the Switch barely had any exclusive games. For a Nintendo console anyway. Perhaps that‘s something Nintendo is working on now, but I doubt it can compete with PC games in terms of bang you get for your buck. There‘s just no way.

I won't lie, I'm only interested in the new Pro controller. My old one has slight stick drift which absolutely sucks of course but it's over 7 years old and feels so much better than anything else on the market. I also prefer the Nintendo button layout over Microsoft's so it's an easy purchase.

Partially yes absolutely. Some regions with more and more dams have recently experienced devastating floods, suggesting they‘ve tempered with nature a little too much. And yes, some of those new highspeed rails are barely ever used and mainly serve a symbolic purpose, namely connecting outer regions to the central power in Beijing in some way or form. Nearly nobody uses those and the best case scenario for them would be a war so they can transport masses of troops quickly.

While most April fools steal your time and leave you head scratching, this one can potentially give you a lot of time back. I like it.

I somewhat respect that form of protest, actually. Some users fuming over this is probably the point the admins are trying to make. They created a sort of „and then they came for me…“ situation.

Politicians, parties and even countries should be penalized for repeatedly bringing it up just to be shut down. It‘s a waste of time and waste of money. Things like that shouldn‘t be voted on for at least another 4 years once shut down. And no, just changing the wording doesn‘t make a proposal unique. A big brother law is still a big brother law.

Well you see. Mega projects in authoritarian countries rarely solve actual problem or serve a purpose. They‘re just there to make good headlines and be forgotten because the next mega project or innovation just made the news!

What makes BG3 so great is that it doesn‘t just have voice acting, it has full acting. The actor of Astarion worked for 4 years on it and claimed it was the equivalent to shooting 4 seasons of a TV show. It‘s a huge scope that almost nobody can or want to afford. I mean those studios who can just don‘t take that part very seriously and are eyeing with simply opting to use AI instead. I doubt it will ever be recreated, maybe not even by Larian themselves.

It currently belongs to Viant Technology LLC, an advertising company that's deeply invested into the AI bubble. Perhaps they'll sell it off after the crash but honestly, MySpace's downfall and sellout is kind of what's wrong with Internet culture anyway so I don't see any benefit in a restart. I'd rather see a complete reset.

I'm not convinced bundling a losing business with an utterly inflated one is the right move to attract investors but then again you shouldn't invest in an oligarchy in the first place.

Mars colonies are mainly a terrible idea because companies like SpaceX ruin our living space on earth to get ahead. Just look around their launch sites that have transformed once vibrant ecosystems into a post apocalyptic hellscape. It‘s simply unsustainable to ruin a livable planet in order to colonize a dead rock. The whole Mars mission is a scam from that perspective alone. I think even entertaining the idea of a Mars colony and debating about it‘s independence from Earth is missing the point.

It‘s so funny how headlines about this shifted from surprise, to hopeful to now very doubtful in a matter of days.

Let me sell my digital licenses before we talk about them like they‘re comparable to physical media.

Legitimately who cares though? You‘re not in it for the money with Reddit either.

Personally I couldn‘t care less about moderator outrage. Just read the room already and leave. No amount of kicking and screaming will take the platform off the hands of technofascists. You‘re clearly not valued there so why would they care if you cry about their decisions? Just grow a spine already.
