Just beat the final boss in Vampire Survivors - yay me!
About 20 achievements left but almost every single one is either reach level 99 or level 100 with character X so it's going to take a while.

Can't remember the last time I bothered to look at Meta user reviews, they've long been useless.

But damn, imagine being that much of a sado console warrior to review bomb a passion project from a developer, Lol.

we all know who they are

I realized I put it back together wrong thanks to a youtube video, I got the contacts for the battery trapped inside the casing. Took it back apart again and fixed it. 

Lol, I just heard Embracer tried to hype up the fact that Saints Row reboot hit 1m players (not sales) in the first 2 months. Thing is, that is staggeringly poor for the series. Saints Row 3 sold over 900k in the first week on just 360 and PS3 (well over 1m first week sales if you include Steam as well), and it went on to sell over 8m copies lifetime on PS3/360/PC (not including what the remaster sold). Saints Row 4 meanwhile sold over 800k first week on just 360 and PS3, again over 1m first week with steam included as well), and it went on to sell over 5m copies lifetime on just 360/PS3/PC, and if you include the PS4/XB1 ports it sold over 6m lifetime. Saints Row reboot is trending well below every earlier mainline game in the series. Embracer may be right that it will reach break even point eventually, but just barely breaking even is still a flop in my eyes, for a series as big as Saints Row.

I just hope that Gearbox straightens them out and gets them working on a proper new SR game, instead of letting them continue with this reboot cast or making them a Borderlands support studio or something.

Alphabet Inc's Google has struck deals with at least 24 big app developers to stop them from competing with its Play Store, including an agreement to pay Activision Blizzard Inc about $360 million over three years, according to a court filing on Thursday.

The deal with Activision was announced in January 2020, soon after it told Google it was considering launching its own app store. Google around the same time was forecasting billions of dollars in lost app store sales if developers fled to alternative systems.

Epic's lawsuit alleged that Google knew signing with Activision "effectively ensured that (Activision) would abandon its plans to launch a competing app store, and Google intended this result." The agreement increases prices and lowers quality of service; the lawsuit added.

Interesting, if it's true. Google paying Activision $360m over 3 years just to keep them from making their own app store. Microsoft probably won't take that bribe, since they want their own app store on Android/iOS and that kind of money is chump change to Microsoft.

Yeah I was about to say, MS is such a substantially larger company than Google that if they ever approached MS on that kind of bribe, MS execs could easily respond with, "bitch, I'll pay you $360m right now to leave us the fuck alone"

This was probably Google execs when they saw the news that MS was buying ActiBlizz

Lol. We can see the chips falling into place in Microsoft slowly taking on Android/iOS, firstly with their support to Epic in regard to Fortnite on Android/iOS, then their cosying up to EU's statements on the matter and changing their own policies, now acquiring ABK which they will likely use their IPs as a weapon against Google/Apple.

Apple and Google are going to hate Microsoft if they break open their stores, it's fun to watch
