I reckon maybe Timmo knew it was more than four polygons but was using exaggeration to make a point.

Belated thanks @Mortis @Munkienut, I inevitably caved on the last day of the campaign and pledged all in.

Do I want to commit ~£200 to go all in on the Everdell KS? On the one hand it seems a ridiculous amount to pay for one game. On the other people seem to love it and I am very much tempted by all the cute animeeples. Opinions please.

Haha, sorry! I've never played the earlier editions but I like some of his other games and this looks good.

Mythic Adventures £21.79 Tinner's Trail KS £43 £104.05 Kickstarters we paid for last year don't count, right? If so I should be able to keep things sensible this year, given that I have Kanban EV, The Gallerist, Fruitticola, and Venice due to arrive shortly. Plus Perseverance and Wibbel at some point. If I count them my total would look a lot scarier. EDIT: oh and a LOT of Railroad Ink, but also paid for last year.

So why aren't all first party MS games released on PlayStation?

The absolute worst thing for PlayStation owners is Sony dominating another generation and Microsoft leaving the industry. MS being competitive forces Sony to be more consumer friendly. Sony will unquestionably screw gamers everywhere if they can get away with it. For this reason, assuming you agree that acquiring ZeniMax makes Microsoft more competitive, this is good news for all gamers. Unless you believe it's so good for MS that Sony stops being competitive, I suppose. But no one really thinks that.

No doubt, but the discussion was why MS would spend $7.5bn and not make their games exclusive, and you suggested to get them on Gamepass. Clearly they want their stuff on Gamepass, but presumably that could have been achieved by using a pile of money that is big but not as big as $7.5bn. Basically I am agreeing that buying ZeniMax outright suggests their games will not be on PlayStations in the future.

I'm not sure they would have had to buy all of ZeniMax if they just cared about getting their stuff on Gamepass.

Pretty much in line with his general character though. What a dickhead. Imagine being that arrogant when you're talking to Sean fucking Kelly.

You haven't missed something but it's quite nice playing on the same island together. It's kind of in keeping with the point of the game. You can leave gifts and notes and surprises for each other. It is shit that you aren't given the choice though. But anecdotally people annoyed by this have indeed bought extra consoles and copies of the game. Probably more people than have refused to buy it at all in protest. So I guess they're vindicated.

We have Chief and he is great. He sings all the time.
