Re: Please ...
Also, it's "snark"

They're certainly exposed to it in various forms. They constantly ask for Hypa Hypa by Electric Callboy, for example, and my eldest recently expressed enjoyment of Skeletal Remains' new album. It's more that I don't have the mental bandwidth for raucous noise like I did in my 20s, when I would spend most nights staying up late mainlining obscure black metal. I still do on occasion, but I reckon I "have a life" now. My other half says I "grew up."
I did indeed forget to mention it, though after writing the article recalled that I was thoroughly annoyed when it happened because U2 would never have a spot in my library otherwise. I wonder if Sir Jony had anything to do with it. Then again, if U2 is the go-to for the C-suite, we have to find out if they are Tim Apple's favorite band too.
Spot on. The last time I played BG2 was 20-plus years ago so my appreciation for continuity was limited to "Nice! That's the big bad from BG1!" or "I'm pretty sure she was a recruitable character in BG2." The writing in and of itself is some of the best I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing in a game, and it's not worth thinking of BG3 as a direct sequel to those stories.
BG3 is literally just point and click for everything, at least on PC, but I'm sure it won't be vastly more complicated on console. Witcher 3 is unmissable imo, but there's plenty else out there that doesn't require reactions. You'd probably like Chants of Sennaar, for example.
Yes! Baldur's Gate 3! It's on PS5 and Xbox Series now as well. Combat is turn-based (think XCOM), thus tactical rather than dependent on skill. As long as you know the effects of your abilities and spells (experimenting with them is half the fun), anyone can play. Sometimes winning battles is kind of like a puzzle; you may need to have multiple tries at them with different positions or approaches while you figure out the mechanics of the fight, but that is what quicksave is for.
I'm not conflating anything. I'm saying that advertisers don't want to advertise next to 4chan content, and Twitter users don't want to see 4chan content. If you do, just go to 4chan.
No one wants to see advertisements, but since they made up the bulk of Twitter's revenue, it seems pretty counterproductive to turn the platform into a free-for-all then tell the money men to fuck themselves.
Hi! It's a Firebird Studio. I don't think I like it very much but it has been my main and then only ax for almost two decades, I think. I grew up and had a family so it's been sorely neglected (as have any skills I might have once had), but the kids are now saying they want to play so it might come out this weekend if I can restring it.
