Just like the camera!

It has been a long time, about 20 years. That being said, jumping $20 in price overnight is bound to cause some fervor.

I also think that Mario kart world will probably justify the price, but Nintendo puts out a lot of junk that won’t.

Yeah, that thing is going to be around for a year and then just vanish, much like the kinect or eye toy.

The only think I’m salty about is the pricing and move away from physical games.

I think the console, game sharing, games and more all look great.

I mean technically you own the house and the bank owns your loan (with house as collateral), but I do get your point about taxes. However, if the bank had to pay the taxes, they’d just wind up incorporated into the loan. And if the bank actually owned the home, you’d need their approval for any changes.

As for mortgage insurance, you can avoid that with a large enough down payment (20%).

As for the full cost of the loan, I thought that is part of the standard paperwork? If not, sounds like you might have had a bad realtor. You can also look up that info online with any mortgage calculator.

Given the switch2 is going to cost more, definitely.

Also games are going to be $80 apparently :(

Thanks! That helps a lot!

Out of curiosity what do you do at the protests? Is it just standing around or something more involved?

Yeah, I was surprised given the success that they didn’t even spit out something to keep people engaged with the game. Seemed like even a small content update or doc would have pulled people in.

Hopefully it just means the follow-up will be even better.

They’re still moving forward with the sequel (at least according to the article), so if I had to guess they figured they missed the boat with the expansion and want to focus on the sequel instead.

I’ve been to that museum. It is extremely bizzare with a bunch of real penises from all sorts of animals (and people) floating in jars. The facts on all the plaques are kinda fun, but many of the penises are in questionable state.

Also the museum was started by someone who was randomly gifted a whip made from a bulls penis. That kicked off a weird fascination and he started both collecting and being gifted more and more until he figured they might as well open a museum.

I keep expecting something, the lifetime pass has more/less paid for itself.

That being said, they do still offer the lifetime pass, so clearly they see it as worth it.

Samba Bamba!!

Also, whether you see it as a plus or minus, windows wsl defaults to Ubuntu. So, msoft also seems to be somewhat invested in them long term.

Read the chart, it says taxable income.

Deductions and other tax games may lower you’re taxable income, but the progressive tax brackets apply this way to all taxable income.

Haha, well dread Delusion probably has a lower polygon count (sorta ps1 like graphics), but yeah every hit lands stats just impact damage/stamina.

Dread Delusion is the one they mentioned and I really enjoyed it. It’s definitely a more constrained game than morrowind (a few weapon types/spells/smaller map/etc.) however I didn’t find it that limiting. Finishing most of the quests won’t feel like a slog, but there won’t be a lot to do after finishing up the main quest.

What really makes the game is the asthetic and world building. Most side quests feel meaningful and you stumble upon them naturally through exploration and progressing the main quest.

The leveling mechanic doesn’t really lock you out of any specific skillset, and items and consumables enable you to upskill when needed.

The only real let down for me was the ending. It was a bit anti-climatic. Like a lot of these games its basically a slides how at the end on how your actions impacted the world.

Yall don’t have protected branches?

How does it compare to the first? I don’t know why, but the first one didn’t really click with me. I think the CO being on the field made it feel too fire emblem rather than advance wars.

Plus the move away from pixel graphics really hurt the asthetic, but I think they knew without doing something graphically that people wouldn’t fork over $60.
