Could it be a cache thing?

OP’s observation is pretty on point, I would say.

Return of Obra Dinn. Low power but high aesthetics. One of the most unique gaming experiences I’ve ever had and quite perfect for the Deck.

You guys play games on the Deck?

There is some support for lower income brackets but my personal opinion is there should not be “billionaires” in the first place, and that’s where the system falls short. “Billions” is an obscene amount of wealth to be had by one person.

Edit: Here is a visualization on how much billions of dollars really is. Truly mind-blowing.

Not income at all which and also the reason why it’s taxed very differently (and perhaps unfairly).

Income is your wage or the actual money you make from your business. Most rich people generate wealth via their assets (e.g, the stock / property they own skyrocketed in value), and these are only taxed when sold and at a much lower rate.

Their wealth is almost entirely in assets which gets taxed at a much lower rate compared to income, and only when they sell. And don’t forget about all the write-off, tax tricks their armies of lawyers and accountants can set up for them. So if you work for your wages then the system is definitely stacked against you.

They do not have a billion in “income” otherwise they’d get taxed up their nose like regular people do. Their wealth is in their assets like stocks and properties which gets taxed at a far lower rate.

Death Stranding.

I’ve actually had this game kicking around for a while, never gotten into it until I got a Steam Deck this year and have not been able to put it down since.

The game really resonated with me, especially after having been through the pandemic and surviving the same isolation and longing for connection that fundamentally underpins plot of the game. The characters are amazing (great cast - Norman Reedus and Mads Mikkelsen are just stellar in their roles), the world is vast, cinematic and often scary, and the gameplay mechanics are so deep that I’m still learning new things after 50+ hours into the game. So much to unpack. There is also a fair bit of weirdness, humor and cheese mixed in that is signature Kojima, that cracks me up once in a while.

It is truly an unique game and one of a kind experience. Nothing really like it.

Death Stranding. Still keeping on keeping on!

Make sure you try Alan Wake American Nightmare and Control as well. Brilliant games.

Congrats. I got it as a gift and it’s easily the best thing I’ve had in years. It’s going to change the way you enjoy games.

Death Stranding. Keep on keeping on!
