  • Vulture capitalism. These VCs come in and take out a huge loan to buy these established companies, then the company becomes responsible for paying the loan, and the company also pays the VC “management fees” then when the company is a hollow husk of what it used to be they start selling off assets and closing stores. Kmart, Sears, Toys R’ Us, Circuit City, Party City, Payless, etc etc etc. This is how Thiel made his Billions and what Vance did before pretending to be a politician. Lately they’ve been going after the funeral home industry and veterinary clinics.









  • I’ve got hundreds thousands (lol) of hours in Civ VI alone. I’ve paid for copies for PC, Switch, and Android (and I’m cheap as hell so that’s really saying something). I played Civ VII for maybe an hour or two and then never came back to it. I shouldn’t have to tell you that a Civ game you can willingly put down is not a good Civ game. Aside from the game just not being very fun to begin with, the transition between ages is so clunky, it just completely ruins all of your planning and the pacing of the game.

    With this news I saw some DLC had been released since I tried the game and thought ‘oh great, maybe they fixed it a bit or added new mechanics.’ Nope, just more fluff. Never again, Firaxis. You will never get another dime from me.
