    General Gaming News and Discussion

    You said above that my arguments were fucking retarded because in the this single specific format, Personal Computers, the game is not a physical thing that you own anymore. I think it highlights just how unreasonable the request is simply because the only change is that we accidentally...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    If a game has been out for 10 years and the company decides to end support for it, why do we get to demand that it persists forever? Did anyone demand that Mattel had to release the IP for the Intellivison and all of the games to the public once the console stopped production and support ended...

    I know it has gone on way longer than that, I was just going with a timeframe that I was positive they had no leg to stand on. I also practice what I preach. I cannot name the last EA game I purchased because I hate them as a company.

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    I understand and agree with you that EA is a shitty company and those tactics are just to get more money out of the consumer. HOWEVER They have done this for more than a decade now and everyone knows this when they buy one of EA's shitty products. It isn't like they added all of these...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    I am right there with you; I absolutely despise "games as a service" and don't play any of them because it is there to monetize your time instead of being a good game. The difference between me and you pouty bitches is that I go into a purchase with my eyes wide open and don't expect any entity...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    Why are people so fucking retarded? When I buy a car do I get some fucking guarantee that it is going to stay on forever? When I bought CD's was I given a guarantee that the industry would make sure that there was a way to play CD's in perpetuity? When I bought a goddamn NES game in the 90's...

    If most of this is hitting non-US born workers or government jobs then good fucking riddance.

    Path of Exile

    I often wonder about this particular example, Xev, and what it says about games like POE. There are probably 10x the number of players that are your second example as compared to your first. If POE made itself a little more accessible to the second type of player then would they have an even...

    Investing General Discussion

    Debt:GDP has to be lowered as the priority going forward. I understand that they want inflation so that they can inflate the debt away over time, but it doesn't work if they just keep borrowing more money at the newly inflated levels.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    This is just me, but if your life is good then don't fuck it up by trying to make this complicated. If there is truly no debt, house, money, or kids then give it to are and don't think about it again. Now, if you have rock solid proof that she owes you something then you have to weigh how much...

    FIL passed away - Financial advice?

    I want to stop and make sure that the two of you remind yourselves that this is a life blessing from her father and a gift that is not wasted no matter which way the two of you choose. Do not take this thing that he worked his whole life to enrich his children past when he would see the results...

    FIL passed away - Financial advice?

    I have a different question than anyone else to pose and that is: What will make your life better now AND in the long run? It sounds like the burden of living bi-weekly is hard on you; is it as hard on your wife as well? Posed a different way: if you could guarantee that the 300k invested...

    Rick and Morty

    I don't know what you are talking about, that was just as garbage as the last episode. I am not watching any more; two of the worst 10 episodes in a row means it is truly gone. What a fucking travesty.
