New warning label unlocked: Do not eat the Batteries.

If you're basing your value judgement on the price of similar games on the market right now then no, it's very very unlikely to be worth 70. There are critically acclaimed open world games that will likely beat this on content and potential enjoyment / play time for $5-10 right now.

Realistically, we're paying for the novelty though, if you're desperate for something new it might work. I told myself my price point was $60, but there will probably be some sort of discount on the way to or shortly after launch day for the PC version.

It's fun and I recommend it, but I'm hesitant to say you can 'replace' your existing systems with it. You'll probably mostly be able do what you want to do, but we're still in the enthusiast stage and there's going to be annoyances and frustrations. Home assistant is also one of the easier things to setup as far as self hosting goes, but you're going to pick up some skills on the path to getting it working.

Lots of people, me included, but you're not wrong.

It's kind of the only real Switch 2 game, honestly a weird launch situation. Feels odd to buy a switch 2 without Mario Kart. BOTW is cool and the updates are nice but I can play that mostly fine on the legacy switch.

The people who would typically be expected to push back against collective shout also typically wouldn't be expected to do anything effective whereas the people involved with collective shout are the type of people who give politicians money.

It doesn't, Japanese homes don't have that by default. Sometimes there are special options for grounding specific items.

Denuvo could have played a role if I had got that far, but as soon as I heard Ubisoft, that was enough for me to skip it.

It's too bad, the idea had me really excited for a minute.

Also like, have we all forgotten about the possibility of someone having two phones.

I'd love to see a whole series dedicated entirely to finding these people who have dedicated their entire life to some esoteric craft.

People have tried to setup a federated alternative to Tinder/etc and other things, but population is still real low and we're still kind of weird. The sparse demographic info we have is also more than a bit skewed, it's rough.

Don't even have to make it symmetrical my friend, I am still down.
