    Spending money on games

    So I really need to point out a lot of AAA games (not mobile) are getting micro-transactions added after their initial releases this has only thrown gasoline on a giant bonfire of anger in the gaming communities. Especially when many are what are referred to as pay to win, want the best armor...

    Spending money on games

    The problem is that those companies are just as likely to turn around and start selling $100 a year memberships with game play benefits, if you don't know the reference, fallout 76, which is a paid game in the first place. At this point it's best to avoid any game that has micro-transactions. If...

    Spending money on games

    So this actually goes to the issue of morality and ethics, in business schools today ethics are not being taught anymore its become does it make money. Consider something I witnessed when I was running my own business with card games, as following what’s happening with the makers of the games...

    Starting a discussion on the current game market of "online" games

    While its true that AAA games are doing that, they have also increased prices with premium editions, farcry 5 gold is $90 for the whole package standard is $60. The problem is someone like myself is going to wait for a sale. In the end the problem on the cost is more due to graphics and with...

    Starting a discussion on the current game market of "online" games

    So I want to start a discussion on something, first the current market of games that are online or have online parts and have transactions of any kind that you can do more then once, loot boxes and monetization that are in my opinion unethical. I want to make it clear I believe its okay to...

    Which Joker do you think is better?

    Which Joker from the batman films, Jack Nicholson's from Batman 1989 or Heath Ledger's from The Dark Knight, do you think is better? While I like Ledger's performance after re-watching the original 1989 film I think Nicholson's is more of the original version of the Joker which I like.

    Why do some people need god and religion while others don't?

    I'll put it this way again, first if matter can not be created nor destroyed then how can the universe exist? It would mean that all matter that exists has always existed a similar argument as this, God, as creator of time, is outside of time. Since therefore He has no beginning in time...

    Why do some people need god and religion while others don't?

    :eheh: The ironic thing is you expect him to show up like some stage magician and preform a few tricks to prove himself. :nono: Judges 1:18 (GNV) "And the Lord was with Judah, and he possessed the mountains: for he could not drive out the inhabitants of the valleys, because they had...

    Why do some people need god and religion while others don't?

    It is simply becouse I didn't want anyone thinking I was saying that I was referring to them specifically :) While that is true, in the historical context it originated there, with a philosophy that man as an animal must be controlled. And that philosophy has spread to others who are not...

    Why do some people need god and religion while others don't?

    Before I start what I am about to say isn't about any one here nor all atheists, but a brand of atheism, that I'm sure no one here believes in. It also true of some atheists, who believe themselves more evolved, the ranchers while we are the cattle, that we can not run our own lives and that...

    Why do some people need god and religion while others don't?

    The sons of Ashkelon Ashkelon was a city of the Philistines, a people who persistently oppressed and brutalized Israel. The Philistines were notorious for their idol worship and worshiped the false gods Dagon, Ashtoreth (the spouse of the false god Baal), and Baalzebub. The rituals of Ashtoreth...

    Why do some people need god and religion while others don't?

    OK this one is long so stick with me if you can. All right let’s go through this quickly starting in Genesis with the flood 5 ¶ When the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and all the imaginations of the thoughts of his heart were only evil [A]continually, 6 Then...

    Why do some people need god and religion while others don't?

    :hoho: I’m liking this thread it’s getting me to go through my old notes on these things Since this can be a long answer I'll answer it in a reverse way (using science), first if matter can not be created nor destroyed then how can the universe exist? It would mean that...

    Why do some people need god and religion while others don't?

    I’m sorry but I don’t see it that way, as much as some would like it I just can’t. The fact no one has in a lab managed to get spontaneous generation of life with all those special conditions needed is very problematic. And if you can’t get it to happen in a lab...
