I only achievement hunt for certain games. Granted, I’m not a hardcore gamer or anything. I’m probably the guy that most hardcore gamers hate. I’m old school, in my day, you could just pick up a game and go. You’d peruse the manual a bit on the ride home from the store and you’d have a pretty good idea of how to play it once you got home. Some games today are still that way, hell some are so intuitive that you just pick it up and you already know how to play(spiderman), some haven’t changed enough in decades to be a problem. (Gran Turismo, call of duty, Madden). However even if you understood HOW to play a game, some were just hard AF. Everyone understood how to play the stampede level on lion king, very few could beat it.

The point of that previous paragraph is to put a perspective to my response. There weren’t achievements growing up. In fact, many games were so hard, or so badly designed that it was nearly impossible to beat unless you were so ridiculously dedicated that you wouldn’t have enough time to get into other games. I played the original command and conquer games and absolutely loved them but tropico has like 45 fucking menus and I just can’t remember or be bothered to learn every single minute detail. However, Gran Turismo only got more detailed gradually enough that it came naturally, even if I skipped several iterations. My point is, I try a lot of games, especially the free stuff on PS+, that I like the idea of, but when I play it I’m just like nah, fuck this like tropico, I even made my guy look like trump lol. Or games that are too big that I’m just not gonna try to 100% but I love all the same like cyberpunk. I really like DayZ but I never played the arma games and have no idea really what I’m doing. It’s fun but I know getting platinum just isn’t happening but I have fun.

So I guess my point is, I don’t blame anyone for not getting platinum. Currently I only have 4. All the insomniac spiderman games and fallout 4. I want to play a game for the game. Hunting trophies feels like a job, unless I realize I’m pretty close just by playing the game. So if someone wants to play a game without achievements being shown I wouldn’t judge. I like fighting games but won’t play DOA because I dont want to catch shit from my friends for being thirsty.

Also sorry if my post is a little disjointed and rambling. I’ve been writing this during commercials while also getting progressively more buzzed.

I can’t believe kurt cobain died 4 years ago!

I would guess mordhaus or on tour.

Especially if you’re older. It is still 2007, right?

Back then they hybridized pigs and dogs.

My dumbass clicked on the picture and kept trying to use the menu.

It wouldn’t exist anymore and there’d be like 215 countries.

That is really hard to read. “One is going up fast but only in highs, another is going up fast but only in averages, another is going up but only in lows.” (Not actual quote)

It’s out there, several postings and articles that back my claim have been made. It’s not extraordinary, it’s reality.

Edit: it’s been shown enough that it’s on you to prove it wrong. The “buy Canadian” effort has been working, while the EU is working to move away from American tech. The drip of countries selling off US Treasury bonds. The drop of the stock market. At this point, you’re simply either not paying attention, or you’re a shill.

Aren’t they being sued for pricing issues at this very moment?

They didn’t persuade them, they bought the companies and then killed them off. My town had a pretty extensive trolley system, the remnants of which still exist as bike and walking trails further from downtown. The infrastructure for it is still visible and it’s a painful reminder of what could have been. Instead we get a routine traffic problem in a town of only 160k.

Not to mention the abuse that fork lift drivers put on them due to speed expectations. Few drivers use their brakes, and just blast the transmission from forward to reverse or vise versa.

Like a bunch of drunk rednecks driving around in their truck shooting at road signs.

We will absolutely not regret sinking it if you do that. How many warships will it take to do the whole line of succession?

The dollar is shrinking compared to most major currencies and the NYSE is shrinking to all other stock markets. So your comment is more suitable to, well, your comments.

A lot of them are running low on air defense as well.

It’s not always willingly. I can’t give consent to ring to use my data when I walk my dog. I can’t give my consent to flock when I drive around. We judge China for their surveillance state and yet we have far more data centers in America fueling surveillance.

I imagine for most, it’s the economy and enshitification of life in general.
