I haven't got around to playing it yet, but what you've described sounds a lot like The Witcher 3 for me.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it enough to finish pretty much everything (except all the Skellige question marks which thoroughly outstayed their welcome), and Hearts of Stone is better than Blood and Wine, but the gameplay was pretty flat throughout, and most of my enjoyment was in the cutscenes and dialogue and following threads to their inevitably grim conclusions. It's not a game that I would ever replay.

It does seem like a very obvious thing to add, and the mind boggles at how it wasn't there to start with.

It's taken this long for Intel to lose gamer trust.

Intel also have lower power consumption iirc, which is useful for laptops etc.

AMD have the best server chips: https://www.cpubenchmark.net/high_end_cpus.html

You have to remember that most people aren't "choosing a CPU" as much as buying a PC. If the majority of pre-build retail PCs have Intel, then the majority of purchases will be Intel.

TF2 hats, CS:GO and the scammy gambling sites it enabled, DOTA2.

None of this is really better than what Fortnite does, and there's probably no big players in the gaming market with clean hands when it comes to this kind of thing. The successes take all the attention, and Fortnite wasn't even that big until they dropped the Battle Royale formula into it after the sudden popularity of PUBG.

But for that you can buy a mini PC that runs it locally. What the fuck is this even for?

The UK one has acrivastine.

So did Valve but apparently that's fine.

I'd argue they already did that with 3.

Valve never makes 3 and DreamWorks always fuck it up.

You could all just join Canada if you want to stay connected.
