Wym “just as”, those sponsored links for Firefox have been around for a while, haven’t they? I definitely remember turning that setting off a while ago.

Same account options as yours here on mobile, marketing is also off for me.

Thanks for comparing notes!

I don’t even see this option on my account. Old Canadian account, but my phone/Paypal app is EU.

I should have guessed you’d be a gaming connoisseur and already had played AW1 just based on your daily posts (which I enjoy daily too btw).

But playing Alan Wake 1+DLCs more than twice? Damn, you’re not a lake, you’re an ocean 😭

Nooooo this is so sad! Shutaro Ida has been a big part of the “modern” Castlevania games (post-2000) and Bloodstained. I really hope he can beat this.

Fuck cancer.

I have a cat that is not vaccinated for FIV/FeLV because they don’t do that in my country for single, indoor-only cats. The garage was the only space I had where he could be comfortable (don’t worry, it’s a winterized garage with a heated storage room, and that’s where he stayed the night).

Gorgeous screenshots though, I don’t remember this game looking so good

IMO, as someone who played Alan Wake 1 back to back with Alan Wake 2…don’t do it, AW2 as a game feels sooooo much better in every aspect. Unless your tolerance for jank is really high, the difference in the gunplay alone feels like you’re using two different skillsets.

Well…AW2 didn’t completely get rid of the jank, just made it a smoother part of the gameplay lol.

Also the story of 2 is really heavily related to the ending of AW1, you might just spoil yourself for a big part of the mystery.

Yes, thank you so much for your advice the other day!

And funny enough, when the vet asked me for a placeholder name for him, the first thing I thought of was “Todd”. Sorry I stole your cat’s name :')

He has a microchip, but the vet had no luck getting in contact with the owner yet, sadly. They’re hoping to at least find a vaccine record associated with it so they can clear the FIV/FeLV faster.

Just a regular ol’ Pokeball (aka wet treats and an extra thick blanket)

He is absolutely so adorable and friendly! He was purring so loudly that the vet couldn’t get his heartbeat or his lungs. He really just wants a home 😭

Bonus loaf

I don’t mind the expanding in Remake as much as Rebirth tbh. Remake’s does expand a lot of side character’s, but they feel relevant to the story. Marlene, Avalanche trio, hell Yuffie’s little side story, they’re all good additions. EDIT: ALSO Wall Market! Best addition by far.

Rebirth is where I think it went off the rails a bit. The game really feels unfocused with a lot of the side quests, and it really drags a bit until you get to the last quarter of the game.

Maybe it’ll feel better to revisit once we have the entire trilogy. But man, paying $70/ to play Rebirth feels a bit bad when it came out at the same time as the new Yakuza and Persona remake priced at the same point.

I’m usually with you on the “skip the quests you don’t like”, but it really doesn’t feel like an option for this series. Each of the remake games are priced at $70USD and it’s not even a full story, technically speaking.

It feels really bad to not do side content, because it feels like you’re not getting your “money’s worth” psychologically. But the side content varies so much in quality depending on the chapter that the game just feels like a drag. It especially sucks because the OG FF7 is such a well paced story IMO, with a good balance of action/plot vs silly downtime.

Jumping rope about to be a whole chapter LET’S GOOOOOO /s

And it honestly breaks the flow of the story sometimes compared to the original. Rebirth’s added content felt like busywork at times to make it seem like a bigger game than it actually is.

The Honeybee sequence in Remake is peak tho, and I’ll fight anyone that says otherwise.

Only Apple product I care about. God, the Android tablet market is so shit. I miss the Nexus line 😞

It is so so strange to me that there are Americans who want Tlaib to ignore her Palestinian heritage, and be “American first” because she is a representative of the American electorate.

Ignoring the fact that she probably has Palestinian/Arab constituents, these are also usually the same people who shout about their European heritage 5 generations back or whatever (don’t even get me started about their claims of descending from Henry the Eight or whatever), and also never actually “claim” Tlaib as American in any other circumstances because she’s not visibly of European descent.

Like…make it make sense, Robert from HR, who can’t be a direct descended to Henry the Eight because it is literally impossible.

Marie de Medici would probably agree with you.
