This is dumb because you can totally browse through netflix even though it suggests stuff to you.

LoliRock was on there probably because this is KCB's family's netflix account where their 12 year-old watches anime and cartoons

It's like how steam has a steam queue that tries to recommend stuff to you but it's not very useful

Also Netflix intentionally recommends titles it thinks you'll give a low rating to, partially to refine its algorithm and partially because deep down inside people want to watch poo poo sometimes.

Not really. They've been folding all past xpacs into the base game for a while now, since there's not much fervor for old endgame raids and such anymore.

The latest expac is the best they've released since Wrath of the Lich King, so I hope they stopped hemorrhaging subscribers as rapidly as they were.

I thought it was cool, but I was so burned out on the game and frustrated by Cata that it was also the only expac I didn't buy within a month of launch, so I barely got to experience it "as intended".

There are also WoW tokens, which can be bought for $20 and can then sold on the auction house for a fixed price (depending on market demand). The person who buys said token off the AH can then redeem it for a month of play time.

The prices are pretty attainable, obviously moreso if you have Legion and can farm the latest mats of course.

Is there a thread to help you find a game? This might be a long shot, but I'm trying to find an old computer game.

It was a black and white shooter game set in a maze. The character that stands out to me is a floating smiley face with an evil grin. If I remember right it was a multipack of games too. This probably would have been around the era of Windows 95 or 98.

Sorry, don't mind the crazy guy, but please if anybody knows!

Port reports from visiting locations is the basic way to make money / get resources. You can start to find various shipping routes (eg stone from the Salt Lions, ferrying passengers, doing smuggling work), but that requires knowing where those things are.

It's really hard (and boring) to ship cargo from A to B to make a decent profit.

Their previous game was a browser text adventure called Fallen London and it really shows. The game is mostly long stretches of dull sailing and clunky combat in between text dumps of oh-so-cleaver anglophile Lovecraft steampunk worldbuilding, with resource management being the biggest bottleneck in the game and the devs actively patching out anything people discover that negates some of the tedium.

It kind of reminds me of Massive Chalice in that it being grueling and unfun is arguably the way its supposed to be and it complements the story and mood they're going for but it doesn't really make up for how tedious it is to actually play the game as a result.
