Arenvald is my favorite character. His fate is grounded and heartbreaking in an otherwise fantastical setting. I love the complex and realistic portrayal of his disability and his layered relationships with Alphinaud and Fordola. It was a treat to see him again in the Endwalker role quests.

I hate to say it but this was a bullet dodged. It's as bad as Blizzard in those cubicles but nobody talks about it anymore.
3 years ago today, Riot Games offered me a job making more money than I ever thought I’d make in my life. I had 19 interviews over 2.5 months to get it. Partner and I were moving to LA for it. I put in notice at my job and apartment.
2 weeks later they rescinded the offer due to “headcount issues”.

It should be illegal for a person to receive any burial other than a cremation after death and we should begin paving over graveyards wherever necessary for infrastructure/housing purposes. I'm serious I'm afraid
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

It is my personal belief that all baseball-centric social media posts are a psy-op aimed at me alone with the goal of convincing me that anyone is actually entertained by the sport, this is supported by how people talk about baseball for 1 or 2 days a year and then never again

If we're being fair, Pokemon is synonymous with low effort cashgrab these days and not for no reason. GF primed people to believe this stuff with the last few years of games.
We know now this is utter nonsense but this is indicative of the massive problem that exists in regards to Pokémon, and Nintendo in general.

I think one of Silent Hill f's biggest problems is that combat is not your last resort, it's the first. The game can tell you that using stealth is an option but in practice that's rarely true. The older games solved this with room transitions, but we don't do that anymore, so enemies don't go away.

Why? Seriously. Why would they do this? The PS5 has somewhere in the ballpark of 15-20 exclusives total and some won't be forever.
Both PS6 and the next Xbox are planned for a 2027 release, according to separate reports.
