For all the problems the game has, the major thing they get right is the environment.
Almost every area looks more than great, some are industrial, luxurious, barren, creepy, outright hostile, or cozy, but they are usually always gorgeous.
The environments are what pushed me to keep giving the game a chance after the initial shock of not having a cohesive overworld.
I’ve flipped flopped my consensus about the game a couple times, but my conclusion is this…
Starfield is not going to be what you expected from Skyrim in space, at first. It will seem weird and claustrophobic and broken.
But if you give yourself a bit to acclimate to the world they’ve built, there is a surprisingly engaging game underneath.
I believe they’ve left most planets barren on purpose, so they can easily shove DLC wherever they want for the next 10 years.
“New facehugger planet, 20 hours of exciting quests and valuable loot! - $29.99”
That’s 100% going to happen.
Fortunately that doesn’t work.
Even if Musk totally shut down Twitter, then opened an identical platform named X, the contracts Twitter held are still enforceable under the law.
There might be stipulations in the contracts where severance isn’t payable if the company fails, but if I remember correctly, this severance is something mandated by state law, and not just a contractual perk.
So bottom line, Musk is liable unless his lawyers are able to worm their way into a settlement.
It really is a big move, since it likely cost them millions in early sales.
I probably would have bought it already if I couldn’t find a crack, but now I can pirate and wait for a nice sale.
I’m sure I’m not the only one.
You can just click the checkbox for “Copy crack to install directory” to get the installer to do everything for you.
I’m not sure why that isn’t the default.
Do you keep the game if you get the “Deluxe Upgrade” on GamePass? Or do you have to keep paying the subscription if you want to play?
Which GPU did you get?
And also, the “early access” is just a way to get people to pay more for the game in the first week.
By all reasonable standards, the game has been fully released.
“Pre-ordering piracy”… What does that even mean?

I don’t know why you’d want to rent the game if you’ve already got the cracked copy, but I would be surprised if the save files were any different between the two platforms.
I’m almost positive they’ve been developing an image recognition AI that will make slightly altering csam photos obsolete.
Here’s hoping.
If they used SMS those records are still around.
Or did they use something else?
Maybe 30 years ago.
But in the last 20 years there has been a lot of of funding towards prevention and researching a cure.

An HIV vaccine has proven itself to be an extremely elusive target.
But with recent developments in biotechnology, it may not be much longer before we finally have get one.
And by they, you mean the right wind politicians in power.
The people who vote for them are constantly voting against their immediate interests.
If we had some sort of ranked choice, a lot of these one-issue voters might actually have a choice in their representation. Which would be good for all of us.
WinAeroTweaker will let you decide what junk you want to disable.
I mean, illegal online transactions are like the one place where crypto really shines.
Eh, I would support blocks on that. [Porn]
Okay, so lets build all the infrastructure and technology to block porn in the most effective way possible.
And I pinky winky promise to never use that technology to silence my political opponents.
Just think of the children.
And the thing is, there are open source internet browsers that can be written to avoid any browser checks that a law might require.
However, if Google’s browser DRM gets widely implemented, a browser-side content blocker would be effective, because all those open source browsers would be unable to access the wider web.
I think if Big Brother Browser with Google DRM is our future, we’re going to see people using 2 browsers as standard. They’ll have one “corporate” internet browser, for Instagram, Amazon, whatever. And one “free” browser for all the grey area stuff.
Twitter was already struggling with nearly unfettered access to every internet-connected user. (sans heavily censored countries)
If Musk cut off 25%-50% of users, the platform, which relies on eyeballs seeing advertisements, would certainly spiral into oblivion.
The son’s name was Fred Finger, and he died unmarried in his 40’s due to complications from AIDS.
The guy above was joking.
