Service as a product is one of the big reasons I'm moving back to offline single player games again.
Another is how fucking retarded most gamers are these days trying to emulate the top 0.1% that stream online and actually have the skill to push the envelope. Watching the same group of brainlets smash into the same hurdle over and over because "I saw X do it" gets tiring fast when more readily available options would have meant already being past it.
Everyone wants to rush to the level cap. Nobody knows how to actually play or understand their build choice let alone what many of them are called. It's all RNG skinner box trash fueled by time sinks and FOMO which far too many are willing to indulge now.
Yeah that sounds about right for how nigh impossible and braindead the proposal should be for Westminster.
As others point out the most likely result of all this is everyone else just telling the UK to go pound sand and geoblocking the entire region.
He was at least beaten, literally, by the strongest Avenger on the roster. While he might have had what amounted to short brawls with Captain America then later Thor neither really managed to stop him properly. Hulk just ragdolled him into the floor with very little effort.
Or not buying it as is probably the case since companies do love to both tell certain groups the product is not for them, while later whining about going bankrupt because nobody bought the product.
Because they were told not to.
By the producers.

Genius marketing strategy! 🙄
some Scottish accents are D tier (very difficult to understand; they might as well be a different language, honestly).
If they're speaking Doric it is a different language.
leathery Scottish accent, like the one Critical Drinker has, is also S tier.
I had to look him up to check this, he's from Fife so I'm not sure how well it's going to go listening to him 😂
I'm trying find a vid he's done I won't despise simply for the context and I think I'm going to go with Starship Troopers.
Eh, there's some weird echo in the vid so watched the Maverick vid instead as that's newer.
Honestly, that's not a great Scots accent. He's got a very slight slur at the end of many sentences where the last word lasts juust a bit too long, and I chose the number of u's there intentionally because it's enough to be longer than it should be and yet still also too short for the expected effect ifb any is intended. Which is ironic imo since the recurring characteristic I've been told about Scots is just how fast we talk. Sure he's possibly speaking slower so that his audience can understand him, since it's a cornerstone of his gig, but I can't help but feel like it misrepresents the general accent and patter I've known all my life from both my own accent and that of every other Scot I've spoken with across all parts of the country.
From my own experiences I've had non Scots lose track of both my own and another Scots conversation after we got faster and faster to the point we could both still understand everything but evidently we're going quite deep into Scots vernacular.
Personally Critical Drinker is not a Scots accent I could listen to for very long, probably in part because of how off it sounds to me due to the above reasons. I understand it works for many given his popularity but I also wonder whether his channel focus may help with that.
Don't forget their mods were aligned with reddit mods during the origins of gamergate
A lot of people in general seem to forget this part from 10 years ago, which is slightly more surprising when considering how specific that is to boards like here.
4chan is very much controlled and curated these days, and while there will be some degree of shitposting and occasional anti MSM push it is nowhere near as organic or prolific as it was 20 years ago.
NGoCs/engox sounds like an infectious disease. Or an evil megacorp from some cheesy 80s action movie.
