Exactly right. No amount of loss prevention investment will make up for a broken and damaged economy.

Good.
Yeah gonna disagree. West Coast US here and it’s been a stocking stuffer treat every Christmas in my family since the 90’s and very much front center in the holiday section at grocery stores.
May would be Debian, going years between major releases for the sake of stability.
The difference is that the same house in 1990 at 12% still only cost $150k. Today at 7% it costs $1.2m

I really wonder what it is about TotK that makes for such wildly different opinions. Everything about TotK was a vast improvement over BotW for me. Up to and especially including revisiting the same locations to see how they’ve changed and exploring all 3 levels of the map to their fullest extent. I stopped playing BotW the moment I beat it after ~90 hours of play time. But I’ve continued to return to TotK nearly 300 hours in now, after beating it in about the same 90 hours originally. It’s just endlessly interesting wandering and getting sidetracked and finding / figuring out side quests.
I have a couple friends who beat it for the sake of beating the next Zelda game but the majority of my small circle continues to play, some even putting off beating it just to explore more. It’s very interesting seeing such different approaches, hearing what people focused on and how they tackled the openness. I’m not sure I witnessed the same phenomenon with games like Skyrim. Something about this one feels different at least. Hard to describe.
That thin line of dust is just a reminder that you need to vacuum after you sweep.
Combine that with the 20-30 seconds my system takes to do bios memory training on the DDR5 ram and we’re practically back to the “go make some coffee while the system boots up” days 🤦
