Yeah, but most games can’t handle that many explosions so they just crash unfortunately.

No, they pretended to get mad so they had an excuse to cut their workforce without having it labeled a layoff.

Man it’s sad how much distrust they’ve built up now

I eat green olives straight out of the can for lunch sometimes.

Oh snap

The same story of publicly traded companies again and again.

Your steady growth isn’t good enough.

Your growth has to grow - and if it’s not growing fast enough then you’re not doing your duty to the shareholders.

I had to explain to a friend recently why

“I’m at Steve’s house”

Was fine but

“I’m in Steve’s house”

All the activity in every zone I visit really does just feel so great. There’s no better sign a game is alive and healthy. It was totally that which hooked me.

I still play EVE online, having a lot of fun in faction warfare these days.

A video came out on the history of the game recently, just a cool 6 hour deep dive. https://youtu.be/BCSeISYcoyI?si=1sKdXt8oPRUTbzs1

I’ve also gotten into Guild Wars 2 recently and I’m a little addicted. The game just feels great: nice community, events are engaging, so much stuff to do but at the same time not demanding like games can be sometimes.
