  I played these games for the story. The campaigns used to be pretty solid, with good action and a lot of good moments. I’m not saying they’re excellent still, but Modern Warfare had both the nuke and “All Ghillied Up” sequences, Modern Warfare 2 had the up-until-then relatively unexplored front of the United States and the “No Russian” missions, I was genuinely interested in Advanced Warfare’s story, and if you want to go really far back, CoD 2 had some excellent missions that really nailed the scope of battles in WWII. A big part of the reason that Titanfall 2’s campaign was so highly praised was because they had the talent behind Call of Duty’s campaigns working on it. I’m not saying the multiplayer is any small part of the game, but there’s at least some subset of people who played it for the campaign.

  Normally I’d expect to see this stuff on !curatedtumblr@sh.itjust.works

  The game didn’t really appeal to me, but I want to say that the trailer music absolutely slaps.

  We are the Dorg. You will become a good boy. Resistance is futile.

  I’ve heard that and decided to look myself. According to their fundraising report for fiscal year 2021/22, they received $165.2m from 13m people. Removing “major gifts,” $20.8m (only 18,000 people), it comes out to a bit over $11 per person. Additionally, they got $13.5m to their trust, the Wikimedia Endowment (average donation of $13.91/person). So definitely, most of their income comes from small donations.

  As to whether they need it, according to their FY 21/22 financials statement, they’re sitting on $198m in assets ($51m of which is cash), with an additional $52m they can’t touch because they’re long-term investments. However, their expenditures made up $154m. In total, they’re reporting they netted $8m last year for additional assets, but assuming that everyone stopped donating, Wikipedia would probably die in a year, even with liquidation of short-term assets.

  Any idea how this is for single-player?

  I don’t know how far you’ve gotten, but unless you’re reasonably far through the game, you should not go to see those ghosts. Try going back to the start, and then upwards.

  There’s a virus in the station that’s giving everyone aphasia.

  Spock, when you said you were going to join Starfleet, we all laughed behind your back. Some people called you names, like “the Surak of Incompetence,” or “That Dick.”
