  • If I want the tuna salad, I’ll order tuna salad.

    Also if I’m walking up to a sandwich shop or a restaurant that serves tuna steaks on a grill or something of the sort and say “I’ll have the tuna” the assumption is, they know I what I mean (variance for multiple dishes not included).






  • Is it really that different though?

    Lets say you get the 1 month pass, play any games you want and are part of that “service” for the duration, once it runs out you lose access to the games (unless you crack the downloaded files for them which would be like not returning the “rented” game I guess)

    Personally just feels like the same scam cable tv was and now transforming into streaming services with ads.









  • I think a lot of people don’t realize that their pleasure receptors aren’t the same anymore (or are willingly blind to that fact?) and even if you recreate scenarios that might be as enjoyable as the ones that were 20 years ago, for a lot of people the sense of “childhood wonder” is either dulled or gone entirely after so many years so the result still wouldn’t be the same.

    One of those times where it needs to pivot to an entirely different approach to the genre to make it viable, and I don’t see anybody doing that… yet?
