It’s funny you say this, because for 500 bucks I am actually debating between the two as my Christmas present to myself this year.

I think I’d prefer a Steam Deck for no particular reason. 🏴‍☠️

I haven’t even hit act 2, but I am having a really good time.

Playing on expeditioner (normal) and have been having fun with the combat system - some boss fights require practice.

Soundtrack is incredible. I find the soundtrack a little loud compared to the voices on occasion, however, and had to turn this down a smidge.

The story is also well set up in Act 1 from what I can tell.

On my devices where it’s available I usually set it to 80-85%.

I’ll have to check with mine. I know they have a ton of DVDs and Blu-Rays. It’s pretty much the only reason I keep my PS4 around at this point.

Upvoted for Mass Effect, my beloved.

Did Mr. Rodgers have to deal with this type of nonsense back in his heyday?

Same.

He was known as Maud’dib. And while Paul could see the future he was not a Christ figure, but a tyrant and genocidal religious leader.

No, spending time with someone means doing something you both enjoy. At least it is in my book.

My 7 year old son generally understands that when we watch TV or movies together we all pick a family show or movie to watch together, and not just whatever he wants. Or if someone vetos a suggestion you counter-offer as well.

So if she suggests brain rot, you suggest something you both might like. The Wild Robot recently came out on streaming and was a really great movie. She might like that if you are hurting for movie ideas.
