Seriously, there are a million free games that are basically AAA,  yet Tp4 doesn't want to play any of them.

sigh........ growing up is awful.

Growing up makes us less happy


Ignorance is Bliss, Orwell was right about that.
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

I don't know about you chief but I cherish the fact that I can buy 3 packs of fruit by the foot and a 2 liter of Dr Pepper and nobody can stop me.
One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen, Fourteen, Fifteen, Sixteen, Seventeen, Eighteen, Nineteen, Twenty... Yeah that seems about right.

I mean a lot of those free games are designed to take as much money as they can, I regret spending some of the money I had on Clash Royale and Fortnite, at this point I just play paid games cause they already have my money.

Also as someone who is about to be an adult, growing up terrifies me.

cherry blacks - unlubed - filmed and springswapped with tx 55g mediums - alu Plate | pretty happy with this, the blacks were cherry picked so they weren't that scratchy to begin with, but currently breaking them in, may lube them with a dry lube like ro59 or ptfe powder.

lubed with tribosys 3203 | like topre a lot, prefer it lubed but did make less tactile but that might have been a skill issue. probably will get more tactile over time as the domes age.

bad orange alps lol | definitely needs a restoration. planning on wax boiling them and maybe a replacement pcb because the board has only 2 key rollover apparently.

gateron yellows - lubed with 205g0 - 62g tx mediums - pc plate | probably my favourite keyboard already, feels super nice and sounds pretty good, it's got a great layout as well. probably gonna build this with mx browns, I feel like it would suit the board more.

stock with silent reds | Pretty cool looking board, the silent reds are actually good, they are smooth and I don't mind the mushiness (it's not even that mushy as well). the layout is pretty weird, but is useable. will probably mod this in the future. maybe a pcb and plate swap, change the keycaps to something dolch like, and also spring swap the springs in the silent reds.

stock, needs a cleaning and probably replacement foam. Do plan to change layout so it has split bs and rs, as well as ansi enter.

Built with new nixies on pc half plate. Love this board already, probably the best looking board I own, those brass accents are so mint. Really like it as is, but I do want to try an alu build (probably with nixies as well) just to experiment with that.

Personally I'm tired of paying $60-70 for a new game, then getting bored with it about 30% through. It's really black and white. I either beat the game, or stop around 30%. No real in between.

Yeah I mainly just buy indie games on sale at this point, and honestly they are probably better than most AAA games. The last game I bought for 70USD was Elden Ring (Though tears of the kingdom does look pretty inciting, even though I probably won't get it). Not saying you should, but sailing the seven seas could be an option if you want to.

There are so many great indie games nowadays! Even as someone who doesn't play games that often anymore, I'm glad to see that there are options other than the overpriced and mostly uninspired AAA games that have been coming out as of late.
