Was that this studio, or their other studio that's been running since 2017? This one, "Team Blue," was supposed to be working on some unannounced AAA game.
I think you're right, it must have been the sequel!
Is this the one where I kept trying to go visit my mom (as part of my belligerent insistence on looking for stuff to do in the open world after every mission), but the game wouldn't let me go into any building that wasn't the next story mission, and then later the main character got chewed out by his mom for never visiting her? I did find that annoying.
Digital. The average lifespan of physical crap I'm failing to keep track of is way shorter than the expected support lifespan for PSN/NSO. I would love to be one of those people with beautiful displays of lovingly-collected merch, but I've accepted that I'm incapable of that level of organization. Digital keeps everything organized for me.
Did Trump even say it was a hoax? I remember him asking if you could cure it with bleach, and taking credit for the vaccine. He for sure was annoyed at how long it lasted and wanted to end mitigations early, but I thought it was mostly other grifters who took the "it doesn't exist" line.
How good of a friend are we talking? I care about my roommate's new nephew. I know his sister, and we've played D&D with his brother-in-law. The baby is, like, a relevant part of being friends with them. Similarly, if he went on vacation I'd want to hear about how it went, especially if anything interesting happened.
On the other hand some of my coworkers at my last job liked to talk about this kind of stuff, and I didn't really care, but it was nice to have something to talk about while I was setting up a new printer for them, or whatever.
It doesn't bother me so much when a character in a show has to take a turn with the idiot ball, but when a video game wants me to hold the idiot ball it really makes me want to stop playing. Recently I was checking out Fallen Leaf and the very first level ends with a character politely but firmly indicating that I can't go further in this random cave I'm exploring, because there's something dangerous stored there... while standing under a stalactite that the game clearly wants you to drop on them. No, god damn it, I am not going to commit murder just to unleash the ancient evil that I would clearly spend the rest of the game stopping. I can just quit here and not be a murderer and the world can stay safe.
I did not even humor it by hitting the stalactite to see what happens, I just pressed alt-F4 and went to play something else.
I don't want to look at my disgusting flesh-body and I'd rather nobody else saw it either. Rebuild me shiny and chrome, then we'll talk about showing off.
I didn't realize white-hatting was so profitable...
