Quadruple check the candidate you chose is printed on the slip before feeding it into the counting machine.
Europoor here: I thought you guys had actually digitalized the process. This just sounds like ticking a box on a piece of paper with a pen with extra steps.
This one hits close to home. Bioware games were a big part of my youth. I can’t remember how often I replayed bg2, but I still remember the joy when I actually properly beat it for the first time. I’ll never forget the thrill when I explored the dwarven tunnels in Dragon Age or the magic of Mass Effect’s masterful world building. It seriously feels like I just lost a friend.
Fuck EA.
I can memorize the 8 words though, which is why I use that method for anything where I can’t use keepass.
Their yields going higher and higher is not “outperforming”, it’s the opposite. Higher yield = higher risk.
How am I getting screwed over? There is a product (the merch) and a price for the product. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it. Why are they not allowed to just sell a box with merch?
Do you know of anyone that would buy this but not actually play the game?
Probably not, but who am I to judge. Everybody who buys the merch can still also buy the game on whatever medium is available. If the game was included, the price would be higher. If a download key was included, people who want a physical disc would be unhappy. If a disc was included, people who want all digital would be unhappy.
Virtually all of this is subject to Sony changing their mind and they have all their bases covered “just in case” this way.
Even if it had none of those advantages, it also doesn’t make anything worse for the customer.
It’s a single platform game so far, and it makes the box viable as an option for people who already got the game and later decide they want the merch if they don’t sell out right away.
Even if it had none of those advantages, it also doesn’t make anything worse for the customer.
Why? It’s a platform agnostic merch box. If you like the price for the merch, get it, if not, don’t. If anything, it emphasises that there’s no need to preorder the game, even if you want the CE merch.
Yes, and you can force someone to take drugs, we both know that’s not the point.
Drugs harm the user. Guns harm somebody else.
How does the leather taste today?
No. They just lied.
Because nobody but nvidia profits from LLMs.
Nah. We could introduce regulation mandating that libraries have to be interoperable.
