Why would you ever buy one of these games?

I stopped playing anything that's a live service, don't buy games until a year after release so they have most of the QoL fixes applied unless I really trust the devs and want to support the project.

It's almost like there's thousands of games besides the mainstream ones being shoved down the masses' throats that are already fully worth your time, you just gotta look around a bit for them - because they didn't sink a huge portion of their budget into marketing - because they made a good game.

They released quite a lot of music. And did HELLA drugs.

I'd like to see you produce nothing but bangers with the resources they had available nonetheless too. Music is subjective, to some people "Good morning, good morning" is their jaaaam

Just because it's not yours doesn't really mean it's objectively bad or not good

You've listened to their whole discography? But you only listed Hey Jude and Come Together. Not stuff like Eleanor Rigby, Yellow Submarine, Tax Man, I mean the list goes on for tracks that pioneered multi tracking and various other recording techniques on top of making psychedelic music mainstream in a time where very few popular bands actually did much to express themselves or did anything out of the ordinary.

TLDR; they did drugs before it was cool. And they did them so hard it stopped being cool.

The Beatles hugely shifted the goalposts at the time, there was no popular music on the radio like what they offered - but specifically what they eventually made popular was a huge shift in popular culture and they largely spearheaded it.

I use my TV for all my PC stuff, gaming, video editing, cat watchin'

My PC is basically set up like a console, I custom made a tray for my keyboard and mouse, and just sit back on the couch. If you're set up is at a desk I can understand a monitor but honestly I'd encourage people to embrace the future and try the couch command life.

Honestly for the most 'this is why videogames are a thing' moment I gotta say Helldivers is a masterpiece. Shared screen so you always see what everyone is doing, gigantic skill ceiling, goofy fun to be had mechanics upon mechanics.

It's just one of those games that give you that good fun game feeling when you're playing
