I like the fact that all the old companies are dying (blizzard,Disney,) and new filmmakers/developers are finally getting a chance 

I don't like your opinion, and I like it even less that I found myself in agreement with you.

 

Nostalgia is a b*, absolutely broke my heard seeing those big name that I grew up with being on the news for all the wrong reasons, some of those are unimaginable wrong reasons for my inner child. But instead we are seeing more and more indie games/movies destroying the market performance with a fraction of the budget of the big guys, all because they actually gives a s* about their work, it keeps me from losing hope for humanity. It made me feel like every now and then we are actually capable of rewarding works of love.

 

And if I found myself started feeling too good about the world and humanity as a whole, I just need to google Diablo: Immoral, and the latest comment from an EA CEO, it will all balances out in no time.

That does make sense that you would mourn the loss of companies you grew up with and have such nostalgia for but I’m probably a lil younger than you so I just think of it differently I guess. But you are entitled to your own opinion and I respect it

Cheers mate, but regardless how I felt I am in complete agreement with you. Sometime reality is a tough pill to swallow but I am too old to spit out pills that I don't like.

 

I think at this time, it is a bless if you don't have the nostalgia of those old games, as the quality are getting WAY better comparing to even a few years ago. And if you want great games from big developing team, could I introduce you to BG3 (lol!). We are for sure at a industry boom right now, even the gaming handheld (thanks, Valve) is booming, and this could be your nostalgia moment when this trend dies out, because we can't have nice things and it would die out. Hope you are enjoying the ride as much as I do!

Yeah your right I’m at such a young age that I didn’t really grow up with these companies and eventually these indie devs might turn big and die off and I’ll have the same feelings that you have

There are too many people getting offended, get some perspective and stop taking yourself so seriously.

I’m not sure how unpopular this opinion is, but the humble potato is so versatile and delicious that it’s the best vegetable, root or otherwise.

Other than its horrible for you health wise. Too much starch. The most healthy way to eat a potato is baked. Not a fan of baked, I like mine french fried.

Im pretty sure I read somewhere that Millennials and Gen Z are aging like spoiled milk. Something about crippling debt, unaffordable housing, no retirement and impending doom around every corner.

These things go in phases. Look at TV shows & movies from the 80's, for example.

 

The worst thing about it, is at the office Christmas party. You have a woman talking to you who clearly knows who you are, but you're struggling to figure out who she is, despite having seen her 100s of times before. This problem is, admittedly, more severe the greater your acquaintance with Mr Daniels that evening.

The majority of entry-level gamers don't necessarily require the absolute latest and greatest tech to enjoy PC gaming. I've crafted numerous gaming PCs for young enthusiasts using hardware from the Intel Skylake and Ryzen 1000/2000 series onwards. It makes more sense to ease them into the gaming world with the fundamentals, instead of urging them and their parents to invest heavily upfront, potentially leading to mishaps that could cost both time and money.

Kids generally don't care about the specs of a PC. Most of them just think of a PC as a box that can play Roblox, Fortnite, and Minecraft, which aren't exactly demanding games.

Yeah, that pretty much sums it up. All this leads to stress. And long-term stress ages you.

 

But there are other factors like social media and camera filters that create unrealistic expectations of how people look, and in reality almost everyone looks older than their social media posts. I swear to God, my sister-in-law looks like she's 15 in her social media photos, but when you actually stand in front of her, it's very obvious that she's in her 30s and a heavy smoker.

What's the point of separating/tiering the "generations" from boomers to Z (usually)? I find it as useful as insulting people by their astrological star signs. But that might just be my unpopular view on life.

Brisket is overrated, it's just really mushy way overcooked fatty feeling beef.

The way I see it, if they need that much makeup they're hiding something you probrably woudn't want to see and they know it.
So they cover it up with makeup instead.

I know not everyone is the same because some don't need much, if any really but others are at a disadvantage that way.
It's unfortunate but true.

However:
That in itself isn't the problem, it's when you see one that looks like they went bobbing for apples in a jar of Mabelline or Mary Kay AND they have the "I'm just the shit" (Bee-otch) attitude, that's when it's relevant.

Now? No no no it's been a thing since it was invented. I clearly remember drawn on eyebrows and lines of foundation demarcating the division between face and neck.

A lot of brisket really is overrated, but good brisket is on another level. Also, the ends are the best part as far as I’m concerned and quite a bit drier than the middle, I tend to ask for the ends when I have the option.

I'm offended that you're offended about the offence I've taken

I think AI is stupid.

Not all AI, but AI that people use to "make videos for them" and "draw art for them."  It's all soulless and I don't think it should be encouraged.

I think AI can have a really good impact in other ways and situations.  I just don't think using it as your main content creation tool is the way to go.
