They all want to be remembered and worshiped for what they accomplished by seeing numbers go up in their bank account.
They are too egotistical to realize they would actually earn respect, adoration and have a legacy if they put their money towards helping the world be a better place. Instead they seem to think having a dick measuring contest via rocketships is a good way to help humanity.
Thats how I interpret it as well.
On my knees, in my ass.
I still have the guide that came with Earthbound. I read that thing through so many times as a kid. I think my parents bought it new on clearance because it didn't sell and I was having a rough year.
Still remember the night I got it. It was a nice summer night, there was a block party on our street. My parents wanted to stay later than usual but let me go home to play. The adults were only one house over, but it felt like growing up getting to be home alone.
That opening sequence felt like it could have been my life in a different reality. It took a few years for me to finally beat it , but it felt like growing up with the characters in a way.
I feel the guidebook had a lot to do with my memories. It was so cool how it was presented as newspapers from towns along the way and it being a tangible object added to the immersion. Seriously a great gaming experience I can't ever replicate.
I remember doing that for HoMM3. I brought it with me from home when I stayed with my grandparents for a few weeks one summer. It wouldn't install on their PC so I just read the manual cover to cover forever.
Fascists gaining power by sexually repressing the population doesn't sound kooky at all. It's sounds like reality.
IDK. When I pick up a new hobby I try and go mid tier. I'm not going to buy the 1000 dollar gear but also not the 50 dollar gear.
Though I did go and buy a way too expensive camera a few years ago. But it was more a return to a hobby than a new one. Don't regret the purchase, don't plan on upgrading any time soon.
Huh I have that same controller with the 2.4ghz receiver dock and have no issues. I only use it with my htpc running bazzite. I don't remember if I've played crosscode with it but I'll check it out and report back. Every other game has been great.
Edit: 8bitdo Ultimate 2.4ghz worked just fine with Crosscode for me.
But are they actually healthy and happy?
Only good Queen song is Under Pressure and I think Bowie wrote it.
I always wake up when Jurassic Bark comes on and it's a real bummer. So I don't watch Futurama going to bed anymore.
I'd like to go around leaving big ass tips. 5 dollar coffee, here's a 1000 dollar tip.
