Not who you asked, but I find myself turning it off more often than not. I just never see it as adding much to my experience. I tend to notice it more as annoyance more than anything else.

I got it from my sister as a kid. I felt fine. She is six years older and was pretty bad with it.

On a lot of these there is no info for Wyoming. Further proof that it doesn't exist.

I think one of the devs stated 1.0 has improved Linux support as well. I know many of the steam deck users were looking forward to some improvements to it and controller support.

I get that side of it. I honestly rarely play any games these days looking for feeling like a sense of accomplishment. I just play for an escape more than that.

I also enjoy some grindy games. So the meta progression can fit that for me. But I certainly agree it isn't for everyone. That is what makes gaming so great. Usually something out there for everyone and it would get pretty boring if they were all the same.

This is how I've seen it. I only like the Lights usually because I enjoy meta progression. I feel like it makes the difference for me to feel like I'm not just wasting my time. I should also mention I'm pretty terrible at games so the meta progression helps me make progress where other games I'd be stuck too often.

I see ads all the time now using various famous actors voices for spamming scammer crap. If someone didn't know better they would absolutely think these actors were shilling the stuff.

Well, let's just say them fighting hard to say he doesn't confirm all of our suspicions.

Gotta love the Streisand effect on display. Wouldn't have known he smells if they hadn't "fired back."

When this was posted before someone who followed it fairly closely and others like it, updated the thread with info because the article was behind current info. They had already stopped the trials for MS because it wasn't working. So they began to just focus on one other, the Crohn's, I believe. Figuring if they got one to work, they could go back to the others and get them on the right track.

I have MS, and while this is a new approach, there have been so many articles about treatments that end up going nowhere after the first excitement. So it is still very early to get hopes up.

Hope can be a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane, as Red said.

Key word potential. I've seen so many of these over the years. The frustrating ones can be like these when even the earliest clinical trials haven't been started.

Sounds cynical, I know, but I've lived with the disease for a long time. Something like this will get circulated in support groups without them understanding just how early this is for a potential treatment.

Which is so odd to me. I get that some are trying to play the innocent until proven guilty thing. But the thing is, we know for a fact he has essentially lied about his resume and won an election based on it. Every place I worked, you could be fired if they found out you lied on an application or resume. Why should it be any different with this? So even without a conviction on the legal side of things, they all should have wanted him out based on fabricating his whole life.
