If you're going for the newest one I recommend getting it on ubisoft connect since it will need that anyway and you wont need steam with it. But in terms of online play and performance, Nations Forever is the better option.

Because people are monkeys. The reviewer says it’s trash, everyone says it’s trash, reviewer says it’s good everyone says it’s good.
It sucks really because there are a lot of ok games out there that aren’t all that bad, they aren’t great games but they by no means deserve the rep they get as a bad game.
Just because a game lacks originality doesn’t make it a bad game, it makes it an unoriginal game but not bad. That game is probably still going to be fun regardless. Same with games that are overhyped before release, EG cyberpunk where the community get it into their head that the game will be something way bigger than it was ever actually going to be, the game was still decent, buggy as shit but still fun.
I also don’t like how a good game with decent developers who have had their hands forced by shareholders to add a battle pass, and yet the developers still somehow managed to push back just enough to make sure the battle pass was only cosmetic and not pay to win like the shareholders want, how does that great game get labeled as a bad game? The battle pass isn’t ideal, but if it’s only cosmetic and doesn’t harm your gameplay just don’t buy it. If it had game changing elements in the battle pass by all means don’t play the game those battle passes actually do make the game a bad game sadly.

Strong opinions drive interaction. Driving polarization is is monetarily beneficial.
A moderate viewpoint gets glossed over because it doesn’t stand out. It won’t drive views, revenue, interaction, responses, etc. It’s the extreme claims and views that bubble to the top of media and social media via algorithms designed to elicit response or interactivity.
Even if moderate views exist, they get suppressed. Then people also want response, so they skew what might otherwise be moderate opinions to be more aggressively polar in order to get that response. The polarization is mutually self-reinforcing as a result of existing algorithms.
It would take active algorithm design seeking to deemphasize extremes to attain anything else. This would naturally decrease user interaction (and thus $), so it’s unlikely.

In an industry where almost every single big player is is a faceless, souless entity, personalities that you actually remember are far and few between, everyone knows Randy Pitchford, Bobby Kottick, Todd Howard, Yves Guillemot, Kojima, Hidetaka Miyazaki etc.But such a sizable portion of them are just so blatantly apathetic and out of touch with the industry.
This makes Geoff Keighley stand above many of them because he genuinely believes in the medium and the industry and always tries to prop up not only great industry icons but outstanding independent developers too when he can. His shows are a celebration of these developers, E3 instead is a business event for these developers, but at the very least on the surface, his shows have some heart. Just look at some of the biggest memes of last year or any year he is involved in, there are so many memeable moments.
Look, he's got faults when it comes to corporatism, but that is mostly in the past decade ago when he was memed to death as the Dorito pope, google dorito pope if you don't know that past.

That was the remake to rule all remakes (first game), it absolutely blew me away. Them taking the generic collectible dragons and making them all unique, thematic characters that fit each world was the first time a remake like that didn't just make it feel like how I remember it looking as a kid, but improved on it.

Reply to SSD TRIM for PS5 by DefunctInTheFunk
There's no reason to think trim isn't on by default, as it is crucial to maintain a SSDs speed. I doubt you can change this setting on a ps5.
Trim is a command that the system sends to the SSD regularly. It's not a mode that the SSD needs to be in.

Pandemonium! was a favourite of mine, as was Guardian Heroes. Also the classics like orginal Doom, Quake and Hexen.

It's an acquired taste. Some absolutely love it, for others it just didn't work at all thematically or mechanically.

Ripto's Rage was definitely my favorite as well. I loved the home worlds. It was such a vibe playing the remastered trilogy.
