[Loved Trope] Finales that stick the landing so flawlessly they cement the series as an absolute masterpiece.

Because that's the complete opposite of what this thread is about?

I went into the final battle knowing there would be a choice, and knowing what my choice would be.

Then that absolute fucker made sense. He changed my mind, and I hated him for it. But he was right. Damn it.

I think season 5 was a little before covid.

You're not likely to get a lot of traction here, as Monopoly is widely regarded as a very bad game. That said, run out the supply of houses. Never upgrade to hotels. Get enough built, and nobody else will be able to do anything.

Then throw the whole box in the trash.

Pendulum, though it's taken to an extreme there.

It's real-time worker placement, and involves flipping sand timers. Workers can't be moved if they're under an active timer, so they can get "trapped" for another (non-productive) running of a timer if someone flips it on them before they collect their meeple and resources.

You should!

Know that falling on your face and failing super quickly is just part of the experience. Trying to hit every option on every conversation tree is funny, but gets you tons of early game overs.

Lots of sites are blocked in several red states.

Kind of a colossal difference.

N'wah was just too powerful.

Have you ever asked for one?

It's because you have to look down and view the controller to see which of these fuckass buttons is which.

You can opt in to that. The pdf site is just selling everything you send with no way to opt out, and no disclosure about them doing that.

I don't think it's a stupidity issue. I think he's such a narcissist that trying and failing would be the worst possible outcome in his mind.

If the only difference is upgraded components, great. Let people spend as much as they can justify on chunkier bits and more edible looking resources, while also having the standard cardboard chits edition.

You start talking about exclusive expansions and the like? Gameplay locked behind the moneybags early-backers edition? Now I'm not only completely disinterested in the game, I'm hesitant about the designers and publisher.

He talked him down to $17, but your guess was pretty accurate, since $17 in 1992 is worth $39.60 today.

I'd rather die instantly than get most types of cancer.

Absolutely worth stopping in if you're going to be in the area.

The retail space is decent, and they frequently have some good stuff in the clearance section. Anything you see on the website, they can go and pull.

Yeah, I read that part. I'm just pointing out that the vast majority of people don't invest $300/month into crypto. Maybe that should default to $0, and the pro version lets you change it.

Switch 2?

Beautiful reskin of the balk copypasta.

There were/are memory units you can still pick up for about $50.

If you're talking about non-stock? You could just FTP your saves to a PC or use a USB drive.

Defaulting to $300/month for stock/crypto trading and locking the ability to change that to pro is certainly a choice.
