    Thought it was just me. I’ve been trying so hard to get into Ori but I just… cant. I have no idea what it is, but every time I mention it people are stunned that I’m not enjoying it.

    Thinking of it like that, it actually does help… I mostly just didnt want the story and little secrets to get spoiled mostly. Although if I don’t go seeking them out, I’ll probably be fine.

    I promised myself I’d finish some other games before buying it, but I loved the first one so much that I may just bail on that promise lol. I’m only hearing great things about it, are there any aspects people don’t like or enjoy? I need reasons to not jump on this game right now

    The state of streaming services is what pushed me to ramp up my Plex server and acquisitions for it, and to share it with as many of my friends and family as possible. I tell them to ditch those subscriptions and just text me what they want. It’s easy enough to get if it’s on a streaming service somewhere already.

    Apologies ahead of time for the short rant. Few things bothered me about this show, but overall it was good and I enjoyed it as long as I didn't think too hard about minute details.

    While I liked the show, I felt a few details were missing. One of the big questions I have is why are they (who even is "they"?) so secretive about the creation of the silo and "relics" from before the silo? I understand the whole idea of control and wanting to keep the population under "their" thumb (I suspect there is some secret overarching governing body that wants to maintain control), but what does sending people to their death over something like a pez dispenser accomplish? Is it just to instill fear and maintain that aspect of control? I just don't understand some simple things and there's no real explanation for them.

    Definitely a spoiler, be careful if you haven't seen the show yet And why hide the fact that there are other silos? Is it just the idea that it's easier to control smaller pockets of population than one large one? It makes sense that the helmet shows a false reality when outdoors so people will want to clean the sensor, but with all this technology how is there not a mechanism built in to clean the sensor? I mean for christ' sake we have cars from the 90's that can spray their own headlights to clean them. Obviously don't use a liquid for this scenario but they built these silos, they could have figured out something...

    I have the Nreal Air glasses. I use them often for my Steam Deck and lately for work. They feel pretty great once you get used to them being on your head. And being able to look through them...
