@_Edobean @SquareEnix They just put out a new FFT game a few months ago.

As a mobile gacha-fest.

@chuggaaconroy As an engineering intern, I was told off by my boss at one point due to one of my designs requiring overly-precise manufacturing because: "we're not making Lego here."

[Otto Raynar @OttoRaynar]

@chuggaaconroy The simple answer is that the engineering and manufacturing precision standards that give Lego products thier remarkably high quality also drive up costs very significantly.

Whelp, guess today is finally time to exclusively use @GOGcom over @Steam

Me: "Why would they ever bother putting in an achievement for 5000 hunts? That's a ridiculous number.

Also me: "How is it possible there's no achievement for 5000 player commendations!?"

Well, the dumbest solution is a functioning solution:
Install G Hub on my laptop, where I don't need/use that headset, then connect mouse to laptop, change settings, save settings to mouse, reconnect mouse to desktop, the settings are kept.

[Otto Raynar @OttoRaynar]

New @Logitech G604 mouse needs the new Logitech software (G Hub) to use all its features, but existing G933 headset ONLY works with old (Logitech Gaming) software, and breaks completely with the new one. Reinstalling old software fixes headset, removes mouse features.

JP: "But there's one person/group who actually does speak in a slightly archaic manner, what about them?"

EN: "We'll just have to have their dialogue in bizarre, vaguely Chaucerian-looking gibberish instead of using real words. It's the only possible way."

[Otto Raynar @OttoRaynar]

JP: "Let's write this so that people speak politely, but like normal people."

EN: "It's a loosely fantasy setting, so we're localizing it with everyone speaking awkward, archaic English."

@lucahjin Twitch chat runs via IRC. You can even connect and chat via whatever client you like if you know how.

@qikipedia Except that The Lord Of The Rings ISN'T a "single movie," as you say, so one of the three films must hold that record.

@ZeRoyalViking The thing to know is that it's not really a game you can *play*; it's designed to be picked up once each day for 10-30 minutes to do/check each of the handful of things.

Thinking about it, Animal Crossing basically invented the F2P gasha game back on the N64. But for $60.

[Otto Raynar @OttoRaynar]

@lucahjin I think I totally recall the answer to that one.

[Otto Raynar @OttoRaynar]

@lucahjin When it was brand new and fifty people were doing it at once, it was a nightmare.

Now, by the time you can do it, you're the only one there and you've so massively outgeared it that it's already completely inconsequential anyway.

Saw a picture of a dog with human-looking eyes, and now I can't get the idea out of my head of

a dog with human eyes

dozens of them, kept in a jar

that he keeps trying to sell off at what are, frankly, unreasonably high prices, but he's a dog, and has poor market sense.

@ZeRoyalViking Should it maybe be "Pent-about?" Penta-bout makes it sound like the new WWE fight format.

[Otto Raynar @OttoRaynar]

@qikipedia Usually when one has to point out to staggeringly thick people that grams are not a unit of force, they're talking about weight, which is at least vaguely related to mass.
This one is actually just nonsense.

[Otto Raynar @OttoRaynar]

@unseven @batterystaple_g This legitimately sounds like a speech you'd hear from the evil coach in a Karate Kid style movie, just before the protagonist defeats their whole team singlehandedly and they abandon him.

@_Edobean I have personally found "gamer chairs" to universally be the most aggressively uncomfortable sitting experience I have ever had, and have found myself opting to sit on the floor with my laptop rather than use a desk that has one of them.

[Otto Raynar @OttoRaynar]

@TomFawkes Seems hardly disparaging enough, you ARE talking about people theoretically taking time off to go out of their way to watch an advertisement as early as possible.
