I wouldn't have been surprised if it was both. They live in that amber-hazed section of my brain reserved for the late 70's early 80's.

You're right, of course. It was a Douglas Adams HGTTG quote. My bad. Too many lost years and vague memories of Cosmos. 'Twas also in those years those two media were simultaneously consumed.

It's OK. My rep is still intact...
Had a PS4 for around 3 years now. Got it on a deal that could not be missed. It gets turned on for about 10 hours per year on average.
Bought an Xbox One S about 6 months ago. Just for it's Plex player, which is one of the best, and has native 7.1 audio and 4k. All for less than a dedicated 4k player. And it's an Xbox
I still only play games on my PC though

It sounds like you try to finish one game before sinking time into another. Very laudable.
I just want to point out that NMS is more of a sandbox than an RPG, even though it has main- and side-quests. The main story is only the beginning, and the game is really all about exploration, collapse, and rebirth.
There are 256 galaxies to explore, and each one is ~1400 light years diameter and consists of billions of stars, each with multiple planets and moons. You and I will never see the entirety of it in our lifetimes. In the words of Carl Sagan, as appropriate to NMS, "Space is big, really big."
I put around 10 hours into NMS on the PS4 around 18 months ago. It's how i know i cannot play it with a controller.

I had a quick chat with him via Facebook chat over the summer. I will reach out and let him know. We can always bombard him into submission.

Never say never, but i don't think he intended coming back. I have him on Steam so will send him that message.

Damn. Well, you have talked about burnout for awhile now. I kinda of felt the same way when I was writing/blogging about hockey... eventually, the fire goes out and the passion wanes. That said, don't be a total stranger. -
I loved seeing pauper on camera, but it also showed that why WOTC wouldn't want it to be on video more often: The matches took for-ev-er. MTGO forces players to click and play fast, especially Dinrova Tron and the like... those paper matches had a lot of moving parts and really did drag.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who despises social media. There are definitely cliques and if you aren't in one of them or align yourself with what they think like a lemming, it will make it much harder to get your content out there. Lots of the bigger creators talk about 'muh community' but it's all lip service. With one click to share a link or a post from another creator would expose that content to thousands of people. They don't owe anyone anything, of course. They don't have to do anything to help anyone else, but don't talk about how much you love the community and how much you want to help and do next to nothing to help new creators or creators who have been grinding for years but just need that one click to push them over the edge. Twitter especially is such a cesspool of negativity and drama. Creating content is tough, and I have the utmost respect for those of you who put in the time, money and energy to create content that most of the time goes unnoticed by most players. It's too bad, because theres so much great stuff out there that doesn't get the attention it deserves. I'm glad some of you still create content because I enjoy it and know there are others out there who do too. -
Well, like any draft, if you can't decide on a path early enough, you end up thin on playables. It hurts a bit more in a multicolour set because if you draft Orzhov or Simic cards and end up Azorius, you may have dead cards you can't play without good fixing, even worse if I had picked up Gruul. The lack of 5 guildgates (from the other set) means splashing only works for certain combos I also probably ended up passing good Azorius cards. I was the only true Azorius player, but the guy who went 4-colour gates had a few of the cards I would have loved to have.

If you don't decide on a guild and spread out a little, does it spread you too thin?
