The BallXPit revelation here is akin to the meme: ”I don’t want to be horny, I want to be happy”

I agree with Conrad on the last character, the moment I unlocked that character and ”played” it once I kind of lost all interest as the unlocking and progressing shifted from being an incentive to play the game to the sole motivation in it, just to see different numbers and stuff. Still play Brotato from time to time tho....

I had no idea Marty O Donnell was a piece of, no wonder Bungie fired his . What a loser. I thought Revive was a fine game and I think it looks decent, also excited for Halo remake regardless of it coming to Playstation.
