  • This is also another debate that goes around. I do agree that it is justifiable to increase the prices of new games on new consoles, it’s their company (even though I selfishly want to pay less), games prices have not kept up with inflation and they are brining more hours of gameplay. I do personally think this logic shouldn’t be applied to older games though. All the work was already put into creating them.

    I feel like some of these videos are people just riding the hate train? Nintendo has always done this. Everyone agrees it’s a stupid practice. In Nintendo’s eyes their content is always about the software and not the physical aspect of it. The value of their IP never goes down, so they never lower it.



  • I really enjoyed Convergence. It was easy to 100% the map. I think it was just the correct length, since I was starting to feel it drag a little. It was nothing mind blowing, but it scratched my itch for a time manipulation game (The last one being Katana Zero). I generally like Ekko as a character, so I may be biased a bit (own two statues even though I never played League of Legends).

    I’m at the start of chapter 6. I paused for a while to get through all the 41-50 challenges, so yeah those took me a while to get through. It was very repetitive, which is why I did it between other games.


  • It think it’s about balance. I have the same view point as yours. Early on, my wife would just get me new things of objects I already had. The difference is timing. I would tell her after the fact to not ruin her mood. She eventually understood and learned.

    Every now and then she still does get me a thing I believe I don’t need. But she’s learned to be observant and is usually correct. If it were up to me, I would likely wear socks until all 5 toes are showing through. What I do in this instance is keep the new thing and I make sure I gift the older item to someone in need of it, or as back up for myself if the space allows. I am very much known in my spaces as the person that gives things away. If you’ve been in my life at least 3yrs, you probably own something that belonged to me.

    I’m not sure what the relationship is between OP and the partner, but timing of when you tell them, does matter. Don’t do it right when the person has given you the gift, just wait. From what info there is, it doesn’t sound like they are a repeat offender of violating their rules.
