What a culture! Especially when the company just literally hates everybody and anybody. The only thing Nintendo is down for, is the almighty $$$

I can’t do this because if I flip the clock my 2FA doesn’t work right. It got me again today, I missed another meeting.

This is one of those rare cases where I’m like, you know what? I’ll allow it. Just this one time.

It runs good too. It’s hard to make this game run well on modern computers, and it’s next to impossible to find through legitimate channels. So what’s all these people whining about, other than the perpetual AI moaning, which honestly is getting almost just as bad as the AI tire pumping.

No way. No shade to Hot Pursuit (also a banger), but this game was right place, right time. Probably the best timed game in history. NFSU1 has a special place in my heart too, but this one was next level.

Might be better, but holy shit do people on social media brigade, which is where I’m not sure that idea would work so well. Some topics just heat people up, and it turns into basically a runaway reaction. I’ve seen folks say like you know this sucks, but maybe we should think about x and y, and the brigade just jumps all over them like a bunch of zombies.

It’s definitely an alternative thing to volunteer your time on. I’m not throwing shade at any decent mods, but they are far and few between and it doesn’t take much imagination to see the sort of people and the sort of personalities that are going to be attracted to such a thing. Like who the fuck normal, is going to volunteer their time, for a billion dollar corporation? No one normal is the answer, Alex.

And the great thing about this whole thing, is you quickly find a new host and you carry on. Unlike Reddit, where you are instantly fucked if you run into a constantly offended power mod

There was an issuance in Canada where the family controlled like 90% of the company. It caused the public shares to do really weird things, I actually made a pile of money over the years off them, but I would never hold them for long term or from a value perspective, just arbitrage. It’s lunacy.

Honestly with the quality a lot of games are released with, and the state they often are in, considering also the ludicrous costs of purchase (and you don’t actually own >90% of these purchases), for me it’s completely ethical. In that quite a lot of these people have lost the plot, we are in arguably late stage capitalism, and it’s almost a necessity anymore to test things before purchase. Don’t part with your hard earned money before you know for a fact what you are purchasing.

My two cents.

The only thing I wish I could deny is the 40+ part
