I have to disagree with you on the pricing point. Just because people "understand" that pricing for games has been behind other entertainment doesn't mean they are willing to stomach that increase. Most people buy video games as an impulse buy from their discretionary funds after bills have been paid. At the price point they are at currently it has stopped being impulse buys. This has led to so.many of the AAA failures of the past two console gens(current and last). When a brand new game costs $60(and gaining) and a weeks worth of groceries cost $100 you don't think in terms of "will this game be fun" but instead "will this game be worth a weeks worth of groceries. And while this isn't a problem for indies who are currently eating the lunch of the AAA pubs right in front of their faces, it will crater those legacy studios.

Ha! Soon as my funding comes in.

Honestly I'm just glad to have a raunchy comedy again that actually shows bodies.

For sure. Netflix makes content. That's what they're good at. Not making quality TV or stories. But they are the current kings of making "that show you put on in the background while you do something else".

That's been my litmus test for a lot of stuff lately is Netflix or Disney in the driver's seat? Then I'll pass.

Well, I don't have a desk job and I'm on console. So while I can sympathize, I'm not really able to offer advice.

I'm bouncing around several games right now. New season of CoD, Space Marine 2, Balatro, Monster Train, and STALKER 2.

I also started Valkyria Chronicles 4 recently and have been enjoying that as well.

I was about to say nothing says I wanna be a dictator quite like having the military celebrate your birthday with a parade

I'm enjoying it from the first episode.

You're too kind, and I appreciate it. It was a fun build. I had turned my nose up at the Mater Grade models due to their reputation for being difficult. I thought they were needlessly so just for the sake of being a "filter" for the hobby. But, this build really changed my mind. There are a lot of small parts and it is a difficult build but the level of detail and recreation was amazing.

I mean sure. But you can't mentally play with a concept for a joke?
