  I would be extremely surprised if they don’t find a way to get more money out of it. Cosmetics for sure. Perhaps quests at some point. I feel like full expansions are kinda dead though and certainly out of scope, as isn’t just the normal game in an Unreal 5 wrapping?

  I play ESO, and love it, but I have been shaken down too aggressively to trust.

  It’s cool to see things get to stick around. I felt the same with APB from Little Orbit. It’s just cool to see games still exist.

  This isn’t for me, but I know people who would love this kind of thing. Why not let the collectors collect.

  I wish it said RAM specs. Would be funny to use it in a rig to play ESO.

  Oblivion has my heart, but I’m not super interested in this. So far some of the visual choices look less inspired than the original take, and I don’t just mean the yellow filter. The dryad went from other worlds to person with a dryad skin equipped.

  I’m more interested in the Skyblivion mod. It feels more like it improves upon what was there and has some cool deviations of its own.

  An interesting read. I’ve heard stories of the same. It seems very irresponsible to tank a grade because a thing told you to while accusing a student of doing a thing because something told them to do it that way. It seems so muddy that I’m not surprised.

  If nobody in the room can explain their logic, then maybe it isn’t decision making time.

  I’ve played the first Mirrors Edge to like 75% maybe three times over the years since it released. I just started downloading the second today. Do you think it is I’ll advised to skip the last quarter of the first? It has been a while since I played it and I feel like I would burn out again.

  Great game. I think it’s me.

  Are you offering yours up? I would be very interested if you are.

  Interesting that the District 9 director is involved with the parent company.

  I thought Game Informer had some cool stuff. I really liked the second opinion on reviews, that tiny box inside the full review. It was fun to pick a side when they were at odds.

  Battlenet has it. I’m not sure why, maybe it is a sign of things to come for Microsoft? I couldn’t very well try the Microsoft Store as it has 0 compatibility with linux.

  Have any Linux users had luck getting it to work through Battlenet? I still got a few months left on my three years of Xbox membership. I got battlenet running through Steam and got it to install the game, but it reports a problem updating when trying to launch.
