It is hard to stay afloat as a comic book store.

It depends on what I’m trying to maximize.
If I just want the happiness spike ASAP, then I would just buy $15 worth of Magic cards, or maybe a booster pack or three, depending on the set.
If I’m trying to maximize my overall happiness over any amount of time, I think spending $15 on something reusable, like a nice pair of socks or a hat would work out for me.
If I want to maximize happiness in general, then spending it on someone else I care about does double duty. It makes someone else happy, and I get happiness from being involved in the process.
They’re just fun little nods to PlayStation’s history. Previous AstroBot games have been fun little 3D platformers, with little tidbits that pay tribute to the PlayStation and its various controllers and accessories and even major series.
This is just saying that there are going to be a ton of references, hinting at the scope and budget of the game.
Mine is mostly a machine for travel. It’s a godsend on flights, or for keeping up with an MMO like FFXIV when I’m gone for a week or longer. It’s also handy for group things when we have a TV (Jackbox for family, or Moonrakers: Luminor for my board game group).
I meet weekly with 5 other guys to sit around a table, speak thoughts into actions, and roll dice to determine the future, so… Yeah.
This is real. I saw news about it maybe 1-2 months ago or so. Catan has largely rotated out of my group’s play pool, but I still remember it as the game that kinda got us into resource-based games 20 years ago.
To be more specific, there are 4 time zones in the contiguous 48 states: Pacific, Mountain, Central, and Eastern. Alaska is also one hour behind Pacific, and Hawaii (usually) one hour behind Alaskan. But Hawaii also doesn’t observe daylight savings time.
This also doesn’t account for how some states (like Arizona) don’t observe DST while Navajo Nation (in Arizona) does, while Hopi land (surrounded by Navajo) doesn’t.
Time is confusing.
I got it a few months ago but haven’t given it a shot yet. I’ve always been a little wary of 3D Metroidvanias because I feel like I’ll get way too lost. Might give it a play on the Steam Deck next week, though.
RGG Studio has been stellar, but yeah, I haven’t really played much else from Sega lately.
Wait, Nate Silver isn’t part of it anymore? Well that ruined any reason for me to pay attention to it.
You realize that AAA is used to refer to the budget, scale, and expectations of the game, right? And that it’s more of a reboot than a remake, meaning it’s probably not going to be an arcade style game. They’re talking about their aims for the game, and trying to justify charging $60-70 for it beforehand.
This is also me in RTS games.
I was scrolling all the way down, looking for someone to mention Swatch Internet Time. I never got the hang of it, with regards to what beats related to various times of the day for myself, but I love the idea.
I used to type like that a lot, back in the era of AIM and FB chat being my primary social and communication outlets. Not sure why, but if I had to point fingers, I’d say it was an attempt to look not-too-tryhard and to emphasize the feeling of it being like a chat. It’s off the cuff, not super planned or thought-out or composed.
Nope. Boomer, Gen X, Millennial (we were referred to as Gen Y for a while), Gen Z, Gen Alpha.
One of my hens came up to me as I stepped outside, but instead of following me around, she leaped at something to my left. She shredded apart a 4-inch long mantis!
Looks like the original tweet ended as (Rock Band) to indicate the game that took #1 back in 2008, and either OP or the auto-titler missed the parentheses?
First, I’m glad they found the kid. No one deserves to be manipulated and taken like that.
Second, dude, wtf? He’s in his 30s and thinks that this is something he should do? The kid is literally half his age, and he seems to think that they’re in any position for a genuine romantic relationship? Gross.
I second the nomination for The Witness! A game that teaches you the puzzle systems and challenges you without using a single word. And then when you realize what’s going on, the game suddenly gets twice as deep.
Apparently 3 is a prequel to 1 and 2, though you can obviously play it 312 or 123, whichever you prefer.
