A person of many passions.
The more I read about Forever Ago, the more excited I become.
Here is an interview featuring the duo dev team behind it. Since Annapurna is publishing it, I hope it will eventually come to consoles as well.

Developers from Third Shift discuss Forever Ago.

Braid, Anniversary Edition is now available to all Netflix subscribers. It's an award-winning game that has been lauded for its beautiful visuals and excellent puzzles. #Braid #Puzzle #VideoGames #Streaming
Oh, I've read Starfield has received a major update, including a performance mode. Does it play any better?
Have you tried connecting something else to your PC? Like a pair of headphones?

'Forever Ago' is a new narrative adventure game from Annapurna Interactive and Third Strike, and it's looking to do things a bit differently.
www.inverse.comI want to get excited, but this isn't like Gamepass, is it? You have to buy the game on steam AND maintain an active subscription. And the people who buy games on steam... Well, don't they already have powerful gaming PCs?
"We sincerely apologise for having laid off so many talented people and having tarnished the Xbox brand with our uninspired decisions. We appreciate our dedicated players for enduring these difficult times alongside us. Thank you," said absolutely no one from #Xbox. Just Corpo mumble-jumble. 🙄 ☹️
Go ahead, defend these scumbag CEOs. Just know that Satoru Iwata, may he rest in peace, took a pay cut and refused to lay off anybody because he believed a fully-staffed Nintendo would come back stronger. It did so, just like that Britney Spears song.

So she didn't then? She didn't laugh awkwardly while deflecting questions and mentioning other things that had nothing to do with the current situation? Instead, as a leader, she has taken responsibility for what is happening?
If that is the case, then I apologise.
I'm not so naïve that I would trust news outlets implicitly. I'm just upset that talented studios and people have been terminated while those at the top sit unscathed.
It's sickening to see the likes of Sarah Bond laughing away when asked about the massive layoffs.
If utility bills increase, then it's a sure thing that hygiene and cleanliness will automatically decrease. People will wash and clean their clothes, their house, oneself less regularly.
In a post-pandemic world, that is completely unacceptable.

Because the Series S is so quiet and energy efficient, you may not have noticed that the black circle houses the fan, which keeps the system cool and in perfect condition.
L. Frank Baum's timeless masterpiece, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, is released on this day, May 17th, 1900. The world is a better place thanks to it. 📚 ❤️

Have you played them all? If so, sure. Maybe consider selling/donating some of them.
No, it wouldn't. People can say whatever they want, but Gamepass is amazing. If Xbox committed to it fully, it wouldn't be a bad thing at all. Actually, to have GP on PlayStation 5/Pro and the upcoming Switch 2 instead of a system that nobody's buying would be terrific.
I thought so the same. But not everyone benefits from good Internet speeds and/or games every day, so it can be annoying to boot up the system expecting to play after a long time, only to be stopped by a large update.
I genuinely hope these modular controllers will help more disabled people get into gaming.

I'm pretty sure Xbox knows absolutely nothing about the finance world. These days, I'm not so sure they know anything about gaming, either.
How is stream pace any different? Sorry, I'm not into streaming. Just curious.
I hope that doesn't happen. I don't like how everyone's hyping up it for no reason, either. It won't move units or subscriptions or anything like that. Most people won't even play it. It favours 《games as art》 and that should be allowed as well. Just take it for what it is. Simple as that.
It's mostly bad stuff, and personally, I'm done with that. It has nothing to do with video games, but everything to do with Capitalism gone wild. Positive scores and awards mean nothing. It's all about the bottom line. So again, I'm done. I play only what interests me, and that's that.
Another Crab's Treasure 🦀 and Little Kitty, Big City 🐈⬛️
You should give Starfield a go. It's pretty great at times, honestly.
I'm playing Little Kitty, Big City right now. It's awfully cute. 🐈⬛️ 🫶
Someone posted something that really made me look at video games in a different light. They said that finishing a game shouldn't be a requirement. Having fun an enjoying yourself, even if it's for an hour, should determine whether a game is good or not.

More than a dozen food delivery businesses operating from the same windowless kitchen/building that share the same underpaid staff and ingredients of unknown origins is just insane. This is Capitalism gone wild. It needs to stop.

No, I don't read aloud, nor do I whisper, but I do tend to move my tongue around my mouth. I never noticed it until recently.
What a coincidence. I just bought the Ezio Trilogy like 2 hours ago. Have fun. 👍
Please make sure to rest. Don't be a casualty.
Umm... Lengthy games, RPGs in particular, are not a good fit for GP, I believe.
PS: Not saying that Microsoft/Xbox are doing the right thing. I'm upset just like everyone else. I'm only trying to make sense of it all.
Single-player games tend to fall off the chart after a while. Meanwhile, live service games like Warzone and Roblox can be monetized ad infinitum. For the time being, Microsoft needs Sea of Thieves and Rare to... Ehh, stay afloat. Sorry for the bad pun. 🚣♀️
Unlike Redfall, Sea of Thieves has indeed managed to become a popular live service game. Xbox is keeping Rare. Just don't expect them to do anything else, like work on the new Perfect Dark game. Crystal Dynamics can handle that... Or not from what I've read.
