      ​@@convergence1point. I've given my Ps5 to my wife. I'm glad that I switched to Xbox back in 2012. I like how most of my games from that gen are still playable on Series X with better performance, nicer resolution, and faster load times (Gta 4 is a locked 60fps and you can barely see the first loading screen artwork before you are put into the game). Sony since 2020 has fully embraced the politics of California. Spider-Man 2 was quickly sold by myself and it will be the last PS game I buy.

I meet attractive women well into their 30s and 40s and see attractive women around here who don't wear makeup. I'm not in some plastic hell hole either, I'm in Pennsylvania. Even some of the bad looking women look better than this Mary Jane and definitely a lot of the Starfield stuff. As long as a woman isn't obese or straight up deformed it's no to minimal effort to look better than MJ if they are in their 20s or that Fable character..

    Surprised to see BG3 here. "Why does anyone like this game?" Because they have no idea what a good RPG looks like.
    BG3 is the lamest, dullest, most perfunctory RPG ever made. The combat is rote. The characters are painfully uninteresting. The story is schizophrenic and goes nowhere satisfying. At no time in my 240 hours with BG3 was I ever in danger of being amused, entertained, or engaged.
    Quite frankly, BG3 is no different than Starfield and I'm sick of pretending it's not.

      It will definitely take a game to completely revolutionize gaming wether for the best or worst for the game industry to change. Most game design of single player games are in some way shape or form inspired by the last of us which is an example a game that attracted a lot of mainstream attention and you can witness that since that game other game development teams have tried copying its design. Weather it is incorporating its stealth mechanics, camera style, and pacing. Though I’ll say pacing has gotten much worse now.

    The main problem with these games nowadays - especially with games like Spiderman 2, or Alan Wake, is that they’re outsourced to companies such as Sweet Baby Inc, which utterly destroy the story in order to infuse unneeded wokeology and “representation”, which is ALWAYS cringe when it’s forced upon the player.

      Alan Wake II’s story didn’t really make much sense either in many of the interactions Saga had with colleagues or other characters.
      Most of the game - at least a significant portion of the game was played as her, rather than as Alan.
