Israel has dehumanized the people of Palestine for a long time. This is not at all surprising. The western world looks the other way for decades to avoid the uncomfortable truth.


Wouldn’t surprise me if they created this news cycle intentionally to make the point. Upcoming ‘election’ and all.


I didn’t say click random, the point is that there is a ton of content but most people only watch the 0.1% that they pump all the marketing budget into but there are tons of great award winning critically acclaimed shows and movies that people don’t bother with, that they would enjoy. I use justwatch.com to filter content.


Sure, it would be great to have access to everything all the time, all I’m saying is that if you have a small amount of discipline and your life isn’t crushed by fomo then subscribing to one at a time is sufficient while priced reasonably.


Any one of these streaming services has enough content to kill a victorian-era child.

I’ve never been subscribed to three at once and have never felt there wasn’t enough options for watchably good media. I can’t speak for you but I think a lot of people get caught up in the trending shows and miss out on the back catalogs.

I think streaming is very affordable but only if you have the discipline to be patient about the most popular show this month not being available to you until later when you switch services.


Movies have been very expensive in the short term period after theatrical release, that’s why blockbuster would charge $60 if you lost the tape, it’s how much they sold to rental stores for before wide release. This higher price is absurd to me but to the studios it’s a premium for all the hype they built up, the price will come down after a few months. They are still working out the new models and testing the waters to see what floats.


My bar for their games is high and its been exceeded. I would be happier if it had every feature I can dream up but if I wanted a game that had an infinite scope and an endless development cycle I’d just pay $10k for a ship in star citizen and hope it releases before I die. Thankfully I’m able to enjoy a game made by one of the most lauded and successful video game developers in the world and not be a curmudgeon about it.

Not trying to be a dick, just seems like everyone else is. Don’t buy it if you need x feature and it isn’t there, maybe they will learn a lesson and make the game you wanted them to next time.


A plane crash can make it easier to claim an alive man is dead as there may not be a body.

I could see this as a means to keep Wagner troops loyalties in check, or just to keep everyone guessing. The most likely scenario though is that Putin did what Putin does which is assassination.





Of what you’ve seen so far, what % of your time with the game is gameplay vs story/cutscene?


Very ambitious, looks great.

I’m disappointed they don’t have the capability to work on ES, Fallout, and this in parallel. You’d think that they sold enough Skyrim units to do that but seem to feel like they can’t do all those things at once.
