Creepy bullshit au deux:

They are going to kill the scalper market!!! They cracked this thing wide open!!! Or something. Step One: Make the cards Step Two: World Wide Shortage Step Three: Charge a shitload upfront so we make all the money those cookgroups are making on ebay Step Four: Make a meme and look at step three...

I have the week off and if something doesn't really get in the way, I am going to explore/invest in what it takes to get set up. All I really want is a card for myself but If I have to walk on the bot side to get it, I'll see what I can do for anyone else. No warranties or promises extended.

J00t is correct, everyone is on the same side here. The big takeaway here is Disney revealing what Transphobic Homophobic Racist Ableist trash they are by not taking the opportunity to cast Cruella as a Black disabled Trans Gay woman of color. SMASH THE SYSMETIC PATRIARCHY GENOCIDAL...

That review describes both halves of the intended audience for this movie: Fat middle aged Karens and Moms with Tasers. Some crossover between the two segments to be expected. Rounded out with car-crash watchers and kids. The Aristocrats!

Un-fucking believable. Whiteness (with black spots) really *is* the devil. They could have had her getting raped by a guy from Dalmatia I guess but that would have been over the line for a kids movie? Guy from Dalmatia with a white and black spotted jacket killing her mom by throwing her...

Getting close the end of ME1, such a great sci-fi game. I never get tired of the music and visuals of going to new planets. Playing thru on the XSX, on a console for the first time, the minigames are so much easier, LE is so great as well, what an amazing experience. Virmire up next, and then...

I was soo close to buying it, I don't remember it being that expensive; is that an exchange rate thing kicking in with special Euro-taxes? Edit: 69.99 and 79.99 US for me for the standard and digital deluxe editions, before taxes. VAT, damn I had to google it, my brain just wouldn't remember...

It really sounds like the reviews were spot on, sadly. Maybe they can patch some of that out but it sounds like the game needed more time or more outside input. Did they just run out of steam? Who doesn't know or feedback that the game is slog early on and then repetitive from hour 10-16...

The bots/Stellar didn't miss any of them. We need someone on the inside.

Then you don't agree; those are two different and contradictory points; no one buys $800 shoes to wear them. We all buy video cards to use them. The only similarity is the shortage and the demand. They aren't trying to spending billions to make more of those collectors edition shoes, though...

And I don't think prices will be where they are for years; there will be a break somewhere along the way that brings them back down from where they are now, $2k plus. We'll see when the LHC cards get here if that doesn't do something to the market but otherwise I will just A) wait B) rent and...

But I'm not. I have a 2080ti and a 1080ti and consoles and while I would pay $300+ for a card, I would pay a $1000ish for 6800xt or 3080, I will either rent a Stellar bot for myself or just wait. If I do rent a bot and get a shitload of cards accidently, I would sell them here for exactly what...

I don't mind the total, a $1000 for a card isn't that big of deal. Its the $950 for a $450 MSRP card that's what I am calling ridiculous. Thanks for the info and best of luck, sincerely.

I mean, its a shortage and I would pay couple hundred dollars more but Fuck paying double and completely forget "winning" a chance to do it and smile. Newegg's Xian ownership can suck it.

When it hits discount, for 30 bucks or so, I will revisit. I think the idea of a small team, not focused on what they wanted, borrowing from too many sources and not implementing those well for their particular game, just didn't have what they needed. It sounds again very much like Godfall...

I was having a great time with it until ME: LE hit. My Forge Guard dropping massive fiery anvils of death on everyone was a first for me. I really want to see what they do with the story as well.

Thanks for update, Jozu. I feel like I dodged a bullet refunding my two copies. I think Godfall was last game I noped out of, and I am sad both of these games didn't turn out to be great. They probably aren't going to change the whole combat system, either, or the sound, or any of the other...

Of course it is. Marvel is full to the gills of this woke bullshit now. This movie is every Corporate HR dept's wet dream of D&I but does it? Either it does or doesn't, and it looks like here these are just "representational tokenisms". But Muh Representations! First Deaf and First Gay...

Aloy is now non-binary and identifies as a Robo-sexual beep/boop. Will be played by Elliot Page in the live action version filming now.

We use HPs and I prefer them to Dells/Lenovos. When I was at Bell, at one point we got outsourced to IBM, who used Lenovos and OMG they were hunks of junk. This was a lifetime ago but parts/build quality of both the laptops and desktops were trash. I have also worked at HP and while the work...

I am about to finish up another build and feel the temptation of the dark side. You can rent Stellar for 6 bucks a day. Whop Rental Platform Reading that Stellar twitter account, I no longer wonder why people can't get video cards or consoles. It's people with stimulus checking buying from...

If your only tool is a hammer, all of your problems look like KEEP THIS ONE BITCH ALIVE AT ALL COSTS AND DON'T DO ANYTHING ELSE. Just think about all of the fantastic things they could have made if Activision hadn't forced all of the good people out when the money train was flowing in. They...

I was kind of in this boat, and looked for a long time for the refund process, and had just about resigned to keep it and see what a day 1 patch is going to bring; its not going to fix many of these issues, which are design choices and publisher decisions. When I saw the review talking about...

Yeah, I cancelled both mine and my daughters' pre-orders. I am shocked it released in this state and the reviews were this "mixed". I am open to them patching the hell out of it but the Climate change/Mankind ruined the earth BS also helped make my decision. If you want to make your game...

This is exactly my point. It may as well have been a new game. I cannot go back to the Stellaris I spent 150+ hours on and recognize the game today. I don't want to have to keep learning how to play the same fucking game. So I don't. Which kind of sucks for me. I am sure it makes them a...

You know how other companies do that? Releasing new games. When did EU4 come out? 13 August 2013. Why has there been 40 DLCs and no EU5? Just kidding, its actually 45 DLCs but I think its 10 major expansions. Because people keep buying DLCs that keep radically revising the systems. I have...

I have to look up when you say "older versions", do you mean Victoria 2, or an different Version of Victoria 3? Because that is my beef with Paradox right now: Game comes out, I get it, learn to play, enjoy it for 100-1000 hours, put it down, come back in 6 months to a year and its a whole new...

I'm super hyped for this. That may not live long once I have to engage with the gameplay systems as they look fun in the videos but weird, it may be just me; I'll have to see how they fit me personally but I am excited to begin that journey.

Bioware: "Hey we made another Vehicle game but it doesn't suck: This time its a TANK." Players:

We all understand, man. Run go play be free!

How did you "reapply"? Tells me I am already signed up.

To me, that was the beauty of GW2; I fucking hate with a passing forced grouping. I don't mind grouping but don't MAKE me do it, don't subject me to all the drooling idiots who make Twitter such bullshit and the powergamer/gearscore freaks. GW2 let people assemble for an objective, put you...

Well, what you are talking about is a multi-factoral balance issue that can and is addressed differently by different companies and cultures/philosophies. I don't feel like at least Early on GW2 was so gamified that it required cash shop boosts to get where you are going vs. some other games, I...

There is a trade off, for sure. We couldn't have imagined how much variety of things to do, how cheap many things are comparatively, the logistics involved in Amazon alone, for instance, are unbelievable. Its truly a Fucking miracle that couldn't have been imagined 50 years ago to order...

That seems to be the mobile/Eastern vs. Western game philosophy. Asian games are made to be time-sink money grabs and people just expect them to squeeze your balls for every dime. It's where EA and mobile games learned it.
