1. The forum & main site will stay up indefinitely after MTurk shuts down in case anyone needs anything. I assume a handful of things will break after MTurk vaporizes & I'll fix it as fast as I can to keep the two main parts of the site online.

    Why not Steam? Games are so cheap I stopped pirating back in 2010.

    can't set up ach without the internet.

    if you try to call them to do it, they'll tell you to use the website.

    it's a thing. old people complain about it on facebook a lot.

    Doesn't bother me

    A character in Mass Effect Andromeda got completely re-written and re-voiced due to Grinching. Granted, Bioware is super receptive to players, but supporting point made.

    Not when publishers are seeing the giant $$$ sitting right there and have a vested interest in going digital and not paying all the associated production, shelving and logistics fees. And younger consumers are growing up in a world where all their content is a subscription service, so why not digital games too?

    This has been a losing fight for a while.

    I used to use beard oil. It really does make your hair softer if you have that super rough hair like I do. Damn you, Italian genetics.

    They don't want to simply make a game and sell it, I have no problems with that. However if they want me to perpetually rent the game, pay for content included on the disk, buy a season pass, install drm and employ scientists to make it addictive all while making record profits and whining about cost.

    I suppose you could tape some cash to the water tower, but someone'll just steal it.

    Looking for help please. I submitted a HIT for Francesca Gino yesterday but didn't write my review since I hadn't done the work yet. I just tried to go into the TurkerView tab on MTurk, and sorted it to yesterday, but I didn't see it on there! Is there a way for me to submit a review still, and if so, could you please walk me though how? Thanks very kindly.
