Solo LASO is disgusting, one stray nade and you are back to the start of the mission.

Dear Humanity... We regret being alien bastards. We regret coming to Earth. And we most definitely regret that the Corps just blew up our raggedy-ass fleet!

20 years is very nice, how recyclable are they after that though?
- Comment on Overwatch 2 is finally bringing back 6v6 with tests to decide OW’s future 3 months ago:
This isn't TF2 though is it, the games were designed differently and achieved different things. If TF2 is the game you want, why not play that? Overwatch had it's own identity, one the devs have slowly stripped away.
- Comment on Overwatch 2 is finally bringing back 6v6 with tests to decide OW’s future 3 months ago:
What you are suggesting is the issue is what they have been trying to 'fix', but it goes completely against what Overwatch is and what made it great to begin with. It's not about 1v1s, it's a team game and they have attempted to devolve it into a 1v1 game where you just happen to have 4 other teammates.
A damage hero should absolutely win 1v1 vs a support hero everytime and it shouldn't even be close.

Nobody is arguing that, I dont buy skins in games. The point is that a lot of people are cosmetic-minded and manipulated into spending large amounts of money on skins and other customisations, the system shouldnt exist.
- Comment on Overwatch 2 is finally bringing back 6v6 with tests to decide OW’s future 3 months ago:
They want everyone to feel powerful on every hero, but that's not Overwatch's identity. They took a lot of skill expression and teamplay out of the game.
I mean the devs are completely clueless anyway, they removed mccrees stun citing "too much CC in the game" while simultaneously adding more CC through both new heros and changing existing ones. Just reading their patch notes shows how lost they are.
- Comment on Overwatch 2 is finally bringing back 6v6 with tests to decide OW’s future 3 months ago:
It makes a massive difference, the game was balanced with 6v6 from the get go, removing a tank completely changes how the game works.
They had problems with certain tank combinations, but instead of addressing that directly, they just removed one. A lot of changes they made just felt like justifications to calling it a 'new game'.
The devs are too proud to add a 6v6 mode along side, it's took so much pressure for them to finally 'experiment' with 6v6, they just won't admit their modes, changes etc are failures.

$20-$60 skins are macrotransactions.
- Comment on Overwatch 2 is finally bringing back 6v6 with tests to decide OW’s future 3 months ago:
It was to disguise their excuse to add macrotransactions.
"It's a new game! Not a shit patch!" - Comment on Overwatch 2 is finally bringing back 6v6 with tests to decide OW’s future 3 months ago:
Overwatch was so fun, the devs just kept adding and changing shit that we didn't need. OW2 is a complete distaster though, they can keep their predatory macrotransactions, just revert to the OW1 patch for everything else.

Yeah, doesn't bode well. Turned into your typical greedy company with the IGN buyout, as much as they could within the limits of keeping old charirty values.

This is about their game publishing branch, not the store.

Hadn't heard of that! I doubt many others have either.

Ugh and then CDPR used a genre as a name for their game, tarnishing it.

Which is quite common, kinda crazy it took this long to (maybe) properly support. I might have to try linux again if it's solid now.

- Comment on Samsung mocks Apple’s crushing iPad Pro ad with its own ‘UnCrush’ pitch 5 months ago:
That was a good change. I'd argue even removing the cable would be a good change. Less e-waste (even though releasing phones every year is e-waste enough).
The bad thing was Apple then selling a charger at extortionate prices, you didnt have to buy theirs though. - Comment on Samsung mocks Apple’s crushing iPad Pro ad with its own ‘UnCrush’ pitch 5 months ago:
Apple copy Samsung too, Apple just has good marketing and gives random names to standard tech to make it sound like its something amazing you should care about.
Samsung wanted to sell wireless buds too, so they also removed the 3.5mm port. At least their SD card slot stuck around for a bit longer. They could release a true flagship if they wanted with a 3.5mm port and an SD card slot, but why would they when millions of people buy their phones each year anyway?
Both are shitty in their own ways, but at least Samsung is Android.
- Comment on Getting into Civ 6 6 months ago:
Yeah 6 is micromanagement hell. Can always get used to Civ with 5 and then transition into 6 or 7 when that comes out.
- Comment on Getting into Civ 6 6 months ago:
5 is superior imo, it's more simple to understand but has a lot to master. It's more visually appealing too, Civ 6 throws so much extra crap at you.
5 is more depth from simple mechanics. 6 is adding mechanics to try and make depth.

This is one of those shitty products that you can see being shitty from a mile away, yet all the coverage and discussion around it gives it a life it otherwise wouldn't have had.

Or if there is a noticeable difference, you have to really listen for it. Which if you wanna do that, then fine, but the vast majority of the time usually have music on while they are doing something else and don't sit listening for every subtle difference, if one exists.

Even in blind tests and high end gear, people often mistake 320kbps MP3s as the lossless track. Compression is incredible these days and isn't inherently a bad thing like it used to be, it saves a lot of space and bandwidth with minimal to no perceivable difference in quality.
And as you point out, not even worth considering at all with average equipment.

Yes, I made this point in my comment, the last few years Spotify has been going through the same UX disaster the rest of the web is, changing things for the sake of it.
