Is it, though?

Chris Sawyer is a madman.

I see what you dad there.

The fish and chips shop closed? So sad that it should come to this.

You’ll trip balls so hard survival isn’t guaranteed.

A new Tony Hawk Underground game set in a fascist dystopia sounds pretty sick, tbh.

Dunno how you can think those things about yourself with all that maniacal laughter you’re doing.

I suspect they did it so people wouldn’t be put off from buying something close to expiration.

In fairness to the people I worked for, they only put it on stuff with a short shelf life anyway, so it was all fairly close to expiring. Also, it was a convenience store. Most people ate it right away.

It might be the Julian date (I have no idea where the name comes from) which is just basically January 1st is 001, December 31st is 365, and the rest of the year is between. So this would be around December 15th.

We used it for food expirations on some things at the convenience store I used to work at.

Lucky you, time to move on to Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons, the best 2D Zelda games in my opinion.

In the past games since Dark Souls, the DLCs have consistently been some of the highest quality parts of the games. If they can do that for Elden Ring, that’s good cause for getting hyped.

Still, this is a reminder not to get too attached to any particular developer. Doesn’t matter how sincerely dedicated to producing fun and satisfying experiences From is: when Tencent talks, they have to listen.

You know there are people at tencent unironically thinking “People were happy with how unmonetized Elden Ring was. How can we monetize that satisfaction?”

I was just thinking “it’s refreshing that you only have to pay for it once, instead of it being a live service.” I guess there’s always a catch.

It’s a very good setting for a show or mini series, but the way the IP’s current owners have handled it so far gives me pause. Hopefully the writers will be competent enough to not resort to the “radiation and mutations are basically magic” writing that’s been all too common with Bethesda.

Yeah? Well I want 10 times of what that guy ordered.
