That entire era of youtube is a strange blur of random British names and accents to me

The price likely going up even more in the next year does make sense to at least be selling something new at a high price point rather than something old

A PS6 with Series S style handheld option and then whatever Windows oriented, multiple store front PC esque experience the next Xbox is rumoured to be are like...actually pretty solid reasons to upgrade on a pure feature level? Its likely going to be the last 'traditional' gen regardless

Its has less titles everyone has rallied around (and the ones that have had that have been heavily RPG oriented) which skews the issue even more

I think 2028 might be pushed cause...yanno...tarifs but this really isn't a major issue. Cross gen is long these days and no one is forcing you to buy

Increasingly a tone of 'next gen has no games' is getting on my nerves when its a lot of a certain generation of gamers having their taste calcify vs lack of actual good things to play

@insipidghost.bsky.social shoutout for another great Obsidian interview.

J @joealouder.bsky.social · 2d

Really great stuff and reminds me of how much talent and unique perspectives are held in the core Xbox studios, i hope that talent can be nurtured against the odds of the capitalist overlords

Sounds almost identical to my Doctor Strange 3D experience in 2022 💀💀

J @joealouder.bsky.social · 3d

Was the 3D passable? I'm bleakly interested and the novelty might help

Love how bad Baldur's Gate 3's male love interests are:

Wyll: hot - but obviously more into your friend than you
Gale: alright to look at I guess, but on a rebound
Astarion: hot - but a child murderer
Halsin: a child murderer - and not hot
