Then it's context. If you're going for the excited delivery, try throwing in a ! or a "That's" beforehand otherwise it could be misinterpreted as uncaring or dismissive.

I'd throw Spicetify into the ring for desktop. The dev team is always pretty quick to fix breakages and post info on their Discord. Between themes and plugins (including adblock) I can't recommend it enough.

Clearly you aren't a real fan...

Only fatal? Jog it off, you'll be fine!

True though I can't even begin to understand how marketing justifies its price when a common "fact" that goes around is that the marketing step accounts for 50% of the total game's budget. Like, how does it cost that much?

Hard to say. Scaring customers away is an interesting marketing strategy unless they've started doing some Hollywood accounting and get an insurance payout for a product they already knew would fail.

Sadly I can't torrent it multiple times without leaching.

They backed out of supporting the Stop Killing Games initiative led by Ross Scott so I rather doubt it's to support preservation at this point.

How do you buy a game less than zero times?

The problem is that it's actually not as expensive to make a triple ehh game as people are led to believe. What's expensive is overpaying all the greedy executives and their unearned bonuses. More people need to be aware of this.

Because there's a lot of negativity towards Hasbro and everything they are associated with given recent years. It's a miracle BG3 came out good at all, let alone as good as it is with them involved.

Once. By accident. Just grabbed a pair off a shelf that were labeled with my size and that was it. Hated them. So impractical.
