UPS is never United Postal Service. You might have meant UPS as United Parcel Service, or you might have mistaken USPS (United States Postal Service).

In this context they are using UPS as Uninterruptable Power Supply.

This isn’t about hardware, though. The experiment was performed on a Switch.

Lego Island… What a fucking legendary game.

Morrowind and Oblivion are probably both on my top ten list of best games ever, if not top 25. I used to be a huge Bethesda fan. Starfield is perhaps the most disappointing game I have ever played. I tisk say worst, mind you, I said disappointing. Any excitement I had for ES6 is well and truly gone.

It was an Italian immigrant, though.

Is that new? I’ve definitely made multiple accounts and I only have one number.

They have literally taken down servers before for maintenance and the like.

Player connections are peer to peer, but a server is absolutely still involved in match making and serving up player messages.

Lol, I am very critical of my hobbies, especially the companies that produce my hobbies. That’s not why your comment is hard to take seriously.

Also, who is “you kids”? I’m in my thirties and don’t buy mtx.

My guy, I wasn’t even trying to make a defense of micro transactions, I was pointing out the really weird comparison of a PS1 game from 1997 with no baked in online features, and a modern game with baked in online features.

Addressing only your first paragraph, the comparison is a bit silly. FF7 didn’t have any online features. Elden Ring does.

Your rant or point is hard to take seriously when it eschews any kind of nuance and comes off as “old man yells at cloud”.

Censoring names in a post about censoring is hilarious irony.

plenty of quality art (stark contrast to youtube)

Then why do you watch YT at all?

Traffic is not even close from anything I can find. YouTube gets as many hits in a month as PH does in a year.

What makes you think any free option that takes YouTube’s place won’t have just as many ads? The traffic that pornhub gets compared to YouTube is not really comparable.

Honestly, considered it even though I haven’t pirated a game in like twenty years. But when I found out the the person who cracked the game is also a hateful bigot, I didn’t even want to download their work. Nah, I’ll buy it second hand.

Been waiting to pick it up cheap second hand. Not interested in financially supporting it.

People who have different world views than you are not automatically trolls. You’d do well to consider that.

are you refusing to see eye to eye with someone who buys a house somewhere because their career moved, then chooses to keep the old one because they were able to rent it?

Yes.

If that’s the case, why?

I will kindly direct you to my very first comment in this thread. Cheers.
