Unfortunately there’s no shocked Pikachu face, because industry doesn’t care about consumers. They’re getting truckloads of money from AI companies, so it doesn’t matter to them that Joe Blow can’t afford things anymore.

Except it doesn’t have trackpads. I guess that’s fine for a lot of people, but I imagine there’s quite a few PC gamers who want the portability along with the ability to play games without proper controller support.

Not the correct answer, but appreciate the compliment.

I love story-based games, so it’s a big motivating factor when choosing what I want to play. However I love all sorts of games, so it’s not the only factor. And sometimes when I’ve played a couple story-heavy games in a row, I’ll look for something else to break things up.

I will be quite forgiving of a game if it has a strong story, but that’s not to say gameplay isn’t important. I don’t play many visual novels, because the genre doesn’t appeal to me. I’d rather read a book or watch a movie or series in that case.

For games without story, I tend to only stick with them if they have something for me to strive towards, engaging gameplay isn’t generally enough. It needs to have achievements or collectibles or distinct levels to beat for me to find it engaging. I don’t play arena shooters for that reason, I just don’t enjoy them.

They’re a company that made environmentally sustainable shoes out of wool and eucalyptus gum. The looks were never really the main selling point, but I’ve been buying from them for a few years now and I always liked them, very comfortable and I like the simple style. Unfortunate that I’m now going to have to find an alternative.

“I saw an article that said the universe is going to end in 10.78 years!” “10 to the power of 78, not 10 point 7 8…” “That’s what I said! That’s less than eleven years!”

When Neopets first came out, I used the entire month’s data allowance in a day. From memory I think we only had 100MB. I wasn’t allowed to use the internet with images turned on after that. Luckily by the time Runescape came out we had a much higher limit.
