It's "free" on Xbox PC Gamepass as well but if you prefer to own your games steam is the way to go. I played it on Gamepass and enjoyed it a lot. Not as good as Doom Eternal but it's still a great game.

Always happy to share! Glad you enjoyed it!

Check out the band Zeal & Ardor. Specifically the song "Devil is Fine". It has grown a bit as a music project but it started as satanic gospel mixed with metal.

He did take a secret meeting with Fox News Executives and Rupert Murdoch at the Murdoch family ranch the other day. Maybe they are planning to try and sawy public opinion on Trump to put JD in the role.

I might lie to myself but I'd never lie to you.

I've worked in e-commerce since 2007 and I've seen every type of website/app selling all sorts of products and services. The issue the card companies have with content like this is that they have an incredibly high rate of charge backs. It's the same with gambling sites as well. Usually spouse one will discover the purchase, spouse two will claim they have no idea where the purchases came from, spouse two will say the card/account must have been compromised, then they call the card company to reverse the charges. I don't agree with the process but it is the main reason I've seen merchant accounts rejected when my clients were applying for one.

You have to take time off from work and you are not usually compensated well enough for the inconvenience.

Most of us just like the day off from work, or the holiday pay if you have to work. and that's where it ends.

I would not have Ellie kill Abby. I'd keep the ending the same but have Abby be the one with the upper hand at the end of the fight, then she decides not to kill Ellie. It makes more sense to me that Abby would see that killing Ellie will just perpetuate the murder cycle, as Abby did when she killed Joel. That's something Ellie can't admit to herself because she lets her anger guide her actions, even when it hurts her friends and loved ones. By letting Ellie go you are robbing Ellie of her vengeance, making her sacrifices pointless, which would hopefully show her that her violent ways only lead to violent ends for her and everyone around her.

I feel like that would be a better ending because Abby seemed more like the hero of the story than Ellie did. Ellie is definitely the villain to me because at a certain point in the game I stopped sympathizing with her. I think that is why Ellie having a change of heart at the end felt so off to me. We just helped her kill hundreds of people without shedding a tear. That person would not stop when they finally had their chance for revenge, especially with what it cost them to get there.

You might not have played the game but you are spot on. No other piece of media is as guilty of this as TLOU2. Ellie literally travels hundreds of miles and kills hundreds of people on her path to revenge, then I'm supposed to believe she has some epiphany during the final fight and she decides to not kill her target??? That target being the whole reason the game exists??? Totally ruined it for me.

When my 1st child was born all she did was sleep. Like 18hrs or more a day. We took her to the pediatrician because we thought something was wrong. He literally laughed at us and said enjoy it while it lasts. He was right. That sleep stage only lasted a few weeks. After that the child never slept again. 11 years later and she is still awake.

Same here. I've been saying for 25 years that the right wing Christian clowns were going to ruin this country and eventually the world. At the time my folks, family and friends all thought I was just some conspiracy nut.
