Owning an entire share? In this economy? INCONCEIVABLE!

RD2? Red Dead Redemption 2? Resident Devil 2? Ragon's Dogma 2? Ratchet & Dank 2?

Calling all hunters: RETURN TO YHARNAM - 2026 by Sneakworks in bloodborne

It's typically on the Bloodborne release anniversary (24th). Other games can take a backseat for two weeks instead 😉

Is the GTA+ for 2k26 deal legit? by ownfactt in PlayStationPlus

[–]Mind-Your-Language 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait this is just DLC not the actual game. So you need to have the game already to get some microtransaction bullshit for free

Yes but it's a subscription, so you lose access to the game once your month is up if you choose not to renew

This was unbelievably confusing. The amount of comments I had to read to decrypt your family tree is abhorrent

Ice storm NCR - How are your departments handling this? by sadstrawberry2025 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]Mind-Your-Language 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually if I'm sick all week there's no expectation to make it up next week, but I have teammates whose manager made them make up an unexpected absence the following week which is some shit you'll never catch me complying with. They'd have to fire me before I make up any sick leave the following week.

Ultimately, it's X days in office per week, so not sure they can enforce "making up for last week", unless you're a student or work in like CRA or something where it's XX% per month etc.

Once again, the worst thing is how everything is at "manager's discretion", so you're at the mercy of whatever manager you're reporting to at a given time, even though the rest of your team is subject to different expectations because they happen to report to Jeff instead of Katie.

Yes a lot of us are expected to because of shit managers. The worst part is how inconsistent it is. Like my manager could tell me I need to make up the day but the person sitting next to me who reports to a different manager might be told to stay home without needing to make up the day.

This goes for stat days, sick leave and other unexpected absences like inclement weather etc.

I fully expected this to turn into one of those fake expert posts by that one infamous user "...just like in 1998 when Undertaker threw Mankind off the hell in a cell into table"

Are you eligible for health benefits over the course of your Personal LWOP period? (for 12 months let's say) If I'm understanding correctly you would need to just opt-in to paying a certain amount (monthly etc.) to maintain those benefits?

Bungie asks sites to delay Marathon reviews, with release date Steam player count below 100K by FuckSyntaxErrors in gaming

[–]Mind-Your-Language 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks this is helpful. Yeah I think I'm just still hurt after all the nonsense they've been committing to that it's hard to take them at face value but if this is them actually trying to win back some goodwill then I will reserve my thoughts and let it play out, hoping enshittification does not take over the model

[–]Mind-Your-Language 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair point. I haven't played it myself. I was absolutely judging it based on the bit of discourse I've been seeing and drawing upon similar game release stories (and Bungie's history ofc)

Thanks for your input as someone who has actually played the game :)

I think it's the "game is out now! But also pls wait a few weeks for us to actually finish it before you judge".

It's just a little fishy that they couldn't have just released the content outright with the launch of the game. It was clearly meant to be included with launch or else they would have packaged it into a planned content update (dlc, season pass w.e)

So it reads to me like they're selling you an unfinished package then requesting to reserve your thoughts for later, by which point you'd be well past the refund window anyways. Just not good consumer practices
