Not who you asked, but I find myself turning it off more often than not. I just never see it as adding much to my experience. I tend to notice it more as annoyance more than anything else.

I got it from my sister as a kid. I felt fine. She is six years older and was pretty bad with it.

I get that side of it. I honestly rarely play any games these days looking for feeling like a sense of accomplishment. I just play for an escape more than that.

I also enjoy some grindy games. So the meta progression can fit that for me. But I certainly agree it isn’t for everyone. That is what makes gaming so great. Usually something out there for everyone and it would get pretty boring if they were all the same.

Like an abusive manipulative ex.

This is how I’ve seen it. I only like the Lights usually because I enjoy meta progression. I feel like it makes the difference for me to feel like I’m not just wasting my time. I should also mention I’m pretty terrible at games so the meta progression helps me make progress where other games I’d be stuck too often.

I see ads all the time now using various famous actors voices for spamming scammer crap. If someone didn’t know better they would absolutely think these actors were shilling the stuff.

When this was posted before someone who followed it fairly closely and others like it, updated the thread with info because the article was behind current info. They had already stopped the trials for MS because it wasn’t working. So they began to just focus on one other, the Crohn’s, I believe. Figuring if they got one to work, they could go back to the others and get them on the right track.

I have MS, and while this is a new approach, there have been so many articles about treatments that end up going nowhere after the first excitement. So it is still very early to get hopes up.

Hope can be a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane, as Red said.

To be fair, I’m sure I’ll forget about this in less than an hour. Secret will be safe with me.

Yeah, it seems like they went on that buying spree to make themselves more attractive to sell.

Key word potential. I’ve seen so many of these over the years. The frustrating ones can be like these when even the earliest clinical trials haven’t been started.

Sounds cynical, I know, but I’ve lived with the disease for a long time. Something like this will get circulated in support groups without them understanding just how early this is for a potential treatment.

I believe that is the one that his car was targeted, but she happened to be in it at the time when he was expected to be.

Which is so odd to me. I get that some are trying to play the innocent until proven guilty thing. But the thing is, we know for a fact he has essentially lied about his resume and won an election based on it. Every place I worked, you could be fired if they found out you lied on an application or resume. Why should it be any different with this? So even without a conviction on the legal side of things, they all should have wanted him out based on fabricating his whole life.

This is how I’ve used mine almost 100% of the time. I got it because a gaming laptop I had was getting a bit old. I use the Deck like I used that laptop. Moving from room to room as needed and hooked up to a TV in each.

I’m stuck in bed some days, so having something that is easily moved like the Switch has been great.

I don’t think being mentally ill makes Kanye antisemitic. Just makes it so he doesn’t hide it like others may do.

I appreciate that link. A really great look at the situation.

That is what my thought was right after the first attack. No one in Palestine could benefit from such an attack. Just Hamas leadership and most likely Iran benefits by sparking more problems in the region and getting Saudi Arabia to back track on having more ties with Israel.

I can’t get it to really play at all on Steam #eck, though I’ve heard others do. Mine either doesn’t load or crashes soon after it does.

I haven’t had a chance to see if there have been any further controller improvements since the Deck is my only way to play it currently. I hope they continue to try to refine it. They definitely made improvements from how it started.

Always good to see a big turn out in the younger population. No matter the country.

Not European, but next ones for you.

I think we even see it regionally as well, not just country to country. Oh that happened 8 hours from me even if it was in my own state, vs oh that happened 10 minutes from where I live. People tend to take more notice when it hits closer to home.
