The Williams distro of choice is a single windows 7 machine with an excel spreadsheet containing all of the companies data

The infuriating thing about dragons dogma has been all the simple things they could fix but didn't. The gameplay and atmosphere is amazing but then Capcom have to shoot themselves in the foot constantly. A friend of mine just lost 8 hours of gameplay because they accidentally clicked "Load from last inn" instead of "load from last save" which apparently overwrites your singular save file and removes any progress you made after resting at that inn.

The singular save file BS was a problem in the first game, why the fuck did they reimplement it in the second game!?

I view the mtx as basically paying for cheat codes. I'm not interested in using cheats but am opposed to companies trying to monetize them. It's straight up mobile game level of BS in a PC game. Tbh though, if the store button wasn't available in the main men, I wouldn't even know the mtx exist.

How difficult did you find the process? Over here we basically just go to the store and buy it after a simple background check. Even the background check seems to be avoidable if you do a private gun sale. At least this is how it was described to me by friends who have firearms, I don't own any myself.

Well I wasn't planning on vaping for very long, just enough to stop smoking. However, I finally did get honest with myself and get a refillable not too long ago.

The disposable one I'm using has a rechargeable battery and an LCD screen lol. So wasteful. I've been saving my dead ones and will be salvaging the battery and screens for a side project.

I don't blame you at all. I've worked at a place that have sucked my life force away like yours. The saying "no good deed goes unpunished" comes to mind. Patching servers and fixing infrastructure issues gets rewarded with getting blamed for any server or app issue going forward and then fixing said issues on top of your current workload. Getting out of that hell hole was one of the best decisions I've made.

Yeah if a company relies on some underpaid person from Macedonia to do an entire IT departments worth of crap then they deserve to get hacked lmao

Microsoft did the same shit with 343 and it was a big reason infinite came out a total mess. They clearly have learned nothing.

It would be awesome if this game got traction after switching from f2p+micro transactions to p2p-micro transactions. I've only ever heard of games doing the opposite.

This was also at my college in Ohio around the same time. Maybe not the exact same poster but definitely the same wording and messaging

Wow I was completely unaware that this game had something so invasive. I'm definitely going to have to refund it. This sucks since the game is really fun but that's a deal breaker for me.
