It would help if you identified which religion. There absolutely is a vibrant queer pagan community, but it sounds like that’s not what you’re talking about.

The GOP margin in the House is going to be too slim for anything radical (at least until 2027). And assuming the immigrant “roundup” isn’t merely performative–it probably is–the economic fallout from it will exhaust Trump’s political capital to be challenging states for the time being.

Yeah, they’re gonna have to take my Windows 10 from my cold, dead hands.

As long as one is okay with the requisite time tinkering to get it up and running, the gaming PC still seems like a no-brainer to me at these prices. So much utility, including doubling as a work station.

I guess a bit can be saved on games by selling the discs later, but that requires the disc drive add-on, so we’re already looking at more up-front cost. And yet somehow, the base unit is still cheaper than the PS3 was, adjusting for inflation.

It was literally the Pinkertons. Long-time union infiltrators.

Also my first deep dive into a gacha. One of my friends also plays Genshin and ZZZ and I’m like, hoooow? 😂

There were so. many. quests. that I’m just now getting to the “log in to spend energy” mode with HSR. The game’s absolutely packed with one-time content and being an MMO player, I’m so not used to this rapid release schedule.

The only times I ever ran out of content in WoW–been playing since 2004–was the six months or so before the next expansion’s prepatch. Even in the notorious 6.1 “Twitter integration” patch that didn’t add a raid, I still was happily messing around with my garrisons and collecting battle pets and mounts. If I weren’t doing the tourism thing now, I’d still spend hours upon hours with the new professions system. I spent more time messing with that in Dragonflight than I did in dungeons and raids.

Maybe you’re the kind of player that doesn’t roll alts? Just that alone is a lot of different content and different takes on existing content.

I don’t know how anyone has time for two live service games at once. Even in my peak college slacker days, just World of Warcraft alone was a lot. I started playing Honkai: Star Rail this summer and a friend wanted me to start The War Within expansion with her. I’ve been doing the tourist thing in WoW for a few years now, and even still with that casual pace of play, the combination was far too much for me these days.

My gaming tastes can get mercurial, so I prefer the irregular stuff now. I love that I can just log into Guild Wars 2 any time without even thinking about money, and I’ve spent a whole $10 on HSR in the six months I’ve been playing it. Makes it much easier when I suddenly get a few days of light work here and there.

This one’s just me passing along the news, I never did get around to this game.

Would be foolish not to go patient on it after Reforged. After D2R, I’m not completely writing it off, though.

Developed by Vicarious Visions, a recent Activision Blizzard acquisition.

And I thought it was an excellent product (although I stopped playing before they started making larger changes in patches).

I had an absolute blast with it for about 15-20 hours earlier this year and then it started getting super repetitive. Ended up dropping it for a new release.

Great villain, though. I’ll probably go back to it just to see how the story plays out.

You made it farther than I did, lol. Got worked by Ymir.

IGN’s reviewer really didn’t like it, scoring 5 out of 10. Probably an outlier, but the overall consensus does seem on the low side for a Mario game.

Also the easiest way to play the PSP version with the combat slowdown fix, which is essential.

My top four haven’t changed in a while:

• Chrono Cross
• Nier Gestalt/Replicant (original version)
• Persona 5
• The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

I love EDM, so any game that uses it or is inspired by it holds a special place in my heart, like Streets of Rage, Rez, Dance Dance Revolution, or the Trails of Cold Steel games (especially the second one).

I love that one can still web search for that and still find the song 😂

Ya, a player has to be okay with the calendar system. I hope it feels better for players; I think at the very least it certainly feels a lot better not to have a rank up require multiple hangouts now.
