GOW 2018 had what felt like a pretty tacked-on crafting system that I didn't enjoy

I didn't like it and almost totally ignored it and it worked out fine but yeah in an otherwise stellar game that part felt so unnecessary

Assume you're going to survive.
What I don't understand is how Gamers find weed to smoke in the first place. Don't you have to like go outside and talk to people? Can I just type "/weed" into steam chat?

you go to the weed store and ask for the gamer weed, and they give you a candy bar with weed in it

I assume that like, matrix inversions per second or triogonometry functions per second or quaternion multiplications per second would be a better measure of gaming power than just straight up operations per second but I'm not a hardware expert

Also you get into the weeds about what has a hardware path on which platform. At least you used to in the past, this generation that might actually work because the hardware is so similar.

Having new hardware to sell would probably help them sustain themselves a little bit longer at least.

So if either of those new boxes get delayed to early next year that would probably be very bad for the Stop.

GameStop not, not Stop and Shop.

Gamestop's final gambit has been a massive investment on video game merch, but they went the lame child-based route of Minecraft t-shirts and Joker funko pops instead of the correct business decision which would have been to fill every store to the walls with copies of the Katamari Damacy vinyl soundtrack

Fuck you say?
Crafting, if not in service of building tension (Resident Evils), encouraging exploration and invention (Minecraft, Terraria, Elder Scrolls alchemy) or acting as a way to supplement readily available resources (Monster Hunter), is a horrible boring and incredibly annoying thing that I'm glad has become less of a thing since the boom it experienced during the Minecraft era

Action based games are the worst for it because gently caress dude I just wanna bash poo poo. If it's too complex it's getting in the way of my murder, but if it's too simple why even have it at all

Doom2016 has the best crafting where you convert punches into weapon upgrades

I live in an mmj state and my wife has a card but we still buy from a dude she worked with because he's cheaper and more likely to have flower than the stores. The card is worth it to keep cops away and to have a back up in case the dude is out.
