What would be your periodization of the "golden age of gaming"? Mine would start at the introduction of the consoles like the N64 and PS1, and the release Windows 95...then it would end with the coming of microtransactions. So that would be 2006 with the introduction of that horse armor in Elder Scrolls Oblivion.

This is not to say that I don't enjoy any games released after that though :p I built a gaming pc in 2011 mostly so I could play Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

I miss George Carlin. Can you imagine the fire he would spit out at today's cultural and political environment? He would schadenfreude the fuck out of this.

I have no interest in talking to them. Their proper place is to keep their mouths shut and their wallets open for my perusal.

There is always that one lib who downvotes 😆

We see you, dude!

They are sad creatures. Don't worry about them. Their opinions are wrong.

I really thought regular-ass people would have had enough of this capitalism thing after the pandemic started, but here we still fucking are today.

I don't bother. Our time is better spent figuring out legal ways to take as much money away from them as possible, not "engaging" in "discourse" with them. 🙄💀

They cannot grasp the post-scarcity mindset and that is pitiful. We have the technical means today to live in a mostly nuclear-powered world supplemented by sources such as solar and wind.
