I’ve been playing pretty regularly since 2017. It’s the only multiplayer game that I play, since I normally don’t like letting my teammates down. I enjoy seeing the puzzle pieces of a random team and trying to figure out how to play in a way that will make them work. At its best, the matches are close and you feel like “It was winnable if I had…” They’ve spent a lot of time giving people the ability to avoid players you don’t want on your team, report trolls, and stick to the game modes that don’t make you angry. They’ve never known if the game should be competitive or fun, and so it’s never quite been successful at either. Most of us who play the game would not recommend it. If you start a match and say, “Anybody here ready to have some fun?!” Everyone will say “No, this is Overwatch.” And they’re right, and that’s okay.

Yes, it is a price increase, but the inflation has been wild. For context, the Switch in 2017 for $299 is equivalent to $389 in 2025 dollars. It’s really been insane. The Nintendo 64 from 1996 was $199, or $404 in 2025 dollars.

My pollinating, proboscis-prone friends are offended.

Chants of Sennaar is absolutely one of my favorite games. It’s one of the few games I’ve played where the mechanics of the game and the themes of the game were in perfect harmony.

Steven Spielberg was the producer on Boom Blox for the Wii.

Imagine trying to find shoes that don’t look like clown shoes when your toes are that spread.

Not OP, but most of what I watch is on Youtube as well except for Lindsay Ellis and The Great War.

I think this is a common misconception about how electability works in a first-past-the-post voting system. There is no benefit to going with a compromise position or reaching out to moderates. The number of people who can be persuaded to vote one way or another is miniscule. The number of people who can be persuaded to vote or not to vote is massive.

If people are excited or scared, they come out to vote. With disenfranchisement primarily focused on progressive and minority voters, there’s not much left to gain in scaring regressive conservatives more, they already vote at high numbers.

It wasn’t a game I played at the time, but I really enjoyed going back to play it last year.

-Spoiler- The strongest moment in the game uses the control scheme as story and character development. Only the older brother can swim. After he’s died, you hit a dead end with deep water in the way. You use the older brother’s control stick to swim through it, relying on what he left you with.

They were basically illegal until 1982. It was considered, and I believe still is, market manipulation.
