Has anyone else noticed that western systems are still using Microsoft authenticate today? The switch to the new one was meant to happen today but it has not.

I recently bought a second hand copy of the game because I was curious after seeing gameplay of the characters interacting with each other. I was also aware of the controversy that surrounded the game at launch.

I have completed the main story and am working through the side missions and I can say: this game is an awesome, underrated gem. I love it. My personal favorites were Iron Man and Kamala. They are both great characters and the voice acting is really good. I loved the main story: I found it fun, driven and interesting. The fact you could use the movie and tv show skins for the characters was so satisfying. The game skins are fine but it was incredibly satisfying to play as iron man in his iron man 3 skin. A big surprise was that they did MODOK justice in this game. This was a far better interpretation of the character than Ant Man Quantumania.

I did encounter a couple problems, mostly the function. Some of the cutscenes were very choppy and certain parts that were meant to move did not. But those are minor details.

So overall it is a really good, fun game at the core that was unfortunately buried under developer mistakes.

Was running an errand at my local Woolies and there was an individual wearing a support BRS shirt courtesy of one big chocy. The spread is happening.

QLD police doing dodgy illegal stuff. Joh would be proud.

I originally posted this in the main Star Wars subreddit but everyone there is so toxic I deleted it.

I thought it was a good film. Is it the best? No. Is it a fun adventure movie? Yes.

I liked what they did with Mando and Grogu, could really feel the father son bond they have. I also absolutely loved what they did with Rotta and Embo. They made a Hutt likable and made Embo a scary opponent.

Some parts of the story are a bit weak and parts of the movie feel a bit episodic in format but they are not huge problems.

So overall I think it’s a decent Star Wars movie and a great continuation of Mando and Grogu’s story.

8/10

I have a neighbor who I chat with a fair bit and have noticed he tends to take anything news/rumor on face value without any real research.

He believes the following despite me trying in vain to convince him otherwise:

- Albo sends $50 million dollars to the taliban every year (what it actually is is $50 million to the UN for humanitarian aid)

- Albo is putting in a death tax (when it’s just a provision to stop the super rich from dishing out to their friends without paying taxes)

- Albo is multi religious just to suck up to everyone (he’s a catholic)

- He thinks that one nation is the only real solution

I have lost count of how many hours I have spent debunking everything he believes with facts and figures and he just doesn’t listen.

So sorry for the rambling but in short: don’t convince people who are set in their ways, you will just give yourself a headache.
