Outstanding response

Just a couple of crazy cut-ups!

I’d posit that piano man is a pompous song by one of the most pompous pricks in pop music, who grows more pompous and self absorbed with every passing moment.

You are not wrong. In fact, it is arguably the most compelling show on TV period.

Extra credit for feckless

Extra points for ersatz

Whelp, I was leaning towards Whisky Dick as my new band name, but now I’m vacillating…

…and there’s the nuance I was looking for.

Good on ya.

Fairly dismal on the face of it, but I can’t help but imagine there is more legal nuance at play here than the article conveys, and if so, maybe someone could explain it to me?

Yeah, gonna disagree. Can’t imagine too many Democrats feeling real generous towards this self-aggrandizing obstructionist-in-chief.

As stated elsewhere in the conversation, this guy can’t even carry West Virginia and he’s supposed to make a dent in the incumbent vote count? Unlikely.

Ah yes, celebrating the turn o’ the century with cutting edge gameplay on state of the art equipment. The future was bright!

I like to think that these asshats generally get exactly what they deserve, and that they will take care of themselves for us. In old Joe’s case, since shame is out of the question, the best we can hope for is irrelevance. He’s got a great head-start already, and an utterly failed bid for the Office of the President may just be the coup de grace 🤌🏼

Yep, but who’s air and time and money will he be wasting? I feel that if he pulls two votes away from you know who then we’re all set, so go get ‘em, tiger!

See, this kind of intel is just part of the reason why I shop here! Steam rabbit hole here I come.

Would I be missing out by having not played the first one, or should I just dive right in?

Hard agree that BOTW on switch was, at least at the beginning, a feeling I may never replicate. The scale, the detail, the never ending variety of the landscapes, the wistful post-apocalyptic loneliness, the near-absence of boundaries. I have an embarrassing number of hours logged, multiple playthroughs, the DLC, master mode, etc. I’m afraid nothing else will even come close ever again; to be honest, this was part of my motivation for my original post, because I seek something like it.

TOTK is awesome and a fitting continuation; in fact, is so rich that I have a better appreciation for having some kind of attention deficit disorder, because there is always something beckoning, and it is nearly impossible to stay on track. But ultimately it lacks the grandeur? the completeness of the original.

Great reply.

You are correct. I really want someone to convince me to go out and buy a console and game today but I thank you for your reply and if I come into a game cube, “Phantasy Star Online Episode 1&2” will be at the top of my list! Was the game that special or was it more of a beautiful time-in-the-life kind of impression?

I inherited a PS2 and tore some SSX up, probably 10 years after release. May never get that soundtrack out of my mind.

Was a tech weenie in yesteryear, but not willing to commit to the cash/time/optimization that pc’s require. So self-limited to consoles. Thanks tho!

Faces very filling apparently
