They’ll be avenged, the real war hasn’t even started yet, it’s only been going on for 12 hours and Iran still has plenty of missiles to retaliate with.

Goodbye yankee soldiers. All alive yankees - go home!

It’s not that simple and besides, if the war made no sense for russia they’d just settle along current lines. According to Ukraine’s propaganda, only 43,000 Ukrainian soldiers are dead or injured and somehow russia has 1,500,000 dead (not counting injury). Ukraine doesn’t even have a functioning economy, they are propped up with donations because they cannot pay the salary of government workers.

Ukraine’s meat grinder is running even lower. The Ukrainian conscripts don’t want to fight but they have no choice.

So they’re going to do a false flag just like 9/11?

Sounds like a real crack up. Last week I played Drop Duchy and I thought to myself, what could be more weird than a tetris game with deck building. Then I see this post.

Wouldn’t it be awesome if they could get proper funding and port this onto consoles and reach more people?

Lol it’s a good thing I stopped playing runescape in 2007. Gaijin would never do this to War Thunder but they did ruin it other ways, with anime body pillows and those cartoon eye decals on tanks. Tell me how that’s historically accurate 🤔

Sounds like a random event in Phoenix Point.

Your operatives discover an abandoned warehouse. Outside the complex glowing radioactive crabs guard the entrance. Do you go in or nope out?

YOU CHOOSE TO ENTER THE WAREHOUSE. There isn’t much here except a box of old video games and dvds from the year 2004. What do we do with this discovery?

1. Give the games and discs to the synedrion council.

2. Give the games and discs to the local orphanage

3. Keep the games for yourself.

4. Play the games now for an instant stamina and morale bonus.

The economic news keeps getting worse. I’m thinking I should get an xbox series x because the series s that I have kind of sucks and I’ve been meaning to upgrade for years. I can buy a series x if I sell my car but then there’s no more money so I’m screwed. Come on government. If we can’t buy houses or have a family we should at least be able to have mindless distractions 😆

I haven’t got it because I’m poor but I really enjoyed their previous game. It had creative dialogue and it was funnier than gta 5.

It will still be bland and boring though. Might as well buy The Precinct instead.

I think the concept fits Microsoft mission - allowing people to connect with technology in different ways. That’s the name of the game. People whine about ai, but voice commands and ai assistants will be good for some people. No more screwing around with 10 point fonts on a 7 inch screen.

Apple products integrate with a lot of healthcare stuff, so it only makes sense if microsoft makes accessible products.

While we’re here, the xbox adaptive controller is pretty cool even if you don’t have any kind of issue. It can be customised with third party button pads and arcade sticks which you plug into the adaptive controller. Great for playing basic games. I read that it’s almost like a keyboard in a sense. It’s quite big and you can add a lot of buttons.

Weak.

So what happened, do other players raid you and loot your entire base if you aren’t sitting at the computer all day to defend it?

Overpriced crap I’ll stick with my xbox but this news is good for Linux users who want to play games right?

I’d consider buying 1 dlc pack for Stellaris but atm I just played the base game on GamePass to learn the basics. I think the other user in this thread had a point about the industry needing to make money constantly and not just make money upon release. I’m glad that paradox supports their games unlike other companies that make dreadful console ports to xbox and never update anything, even when the tools and advice exists from microsoft.

What I dislike more than paradox is these companies that publish a game and abandon it after a few months. They could at least update the graphics for Series S/X consoles but no, games like Aliens: Dark Descent and Batman are left with blurry 2012 graphics because the companies don’t care. Even worse is the games with freezing or crashing bugs.

Sure paradox charge a lot of money for dlc and they keep pumping it out but the same could be said for age of empires 2 and 4. If the game is worth it for you then you’ll buy a major dlc bundle and spend all your time in the game you like most.

I think the base game stinks and it doesn’t give me much to work with. I can’t even do espionage without Nemesis dlc. Options are limited in my opinion. Same thing with cities skylines. Base game doesn’t offer much.

That’s true. I have a similar dilemma with war thunder. It can be expensive and I feel like it’s rage inducing. Surely buying a full game is better for replay value. Why spend extra when there are so many other options.

And so, I shop around. GamePass on Xbox Series S has been great for 2 months. It gives me a clear picture of what I might pay for in the future. Stellaris seems pretty cool though and they keep supporting it, which can’t be said for the bargain bin games that I pick up for pennies.
