If you are a Mac user, Orion is also a great choice.

They reacquired a significant amount of critical Marvel IP, they completed ownership of Star Wars (the first film was owned by Fox), they acquired a huge portfolio of lucrative IP (one of things you are complaining about), but most importantly they acquired Star… a huge media presence outside the US, especially in Asia.
Also, don’t forget that the merger only completed in 2019, right before a particular major global event that we only just started coming out of… and which continues to impact the film industry in particular in some very wild ways.
It’s a small percentage (10% on avg), but those who do spend, tend to be repeat spenders.
That article completely misses the forrest for the trees.
It’s a complete game. It was created with vision, passion, love, and complete creative freedom. It has a great story and interesting characters. It provides lots of player agency. It is unflinchingly candid, mature, and uncensored. Your choices, actions, and inaction ACTUALLY MATTERS. There is no DRM. There are no live service strings. You can play alone and/or with friends. There are no strangers or PvP to ruin your game. And yes, there are also no micro-transactions.
The lesson that BG3 offers isn’t just one thing… it’s a LOT of things. But the best way to sum it up is: it’s a great game and it treats players/customers with respect.
As a Californian, I take GREAT offense at the idea of gendering “dude”.
There is no more gender neutral term than “dude.” You’re dude. I’m dude. He’s dude. She’s dude. They are dudes. The weather is dude. Animals… dudes. Kids: dudes. Elderly: dudes. Girls are dudes. Boys are dudes. Men and women are dudes. Google is dude. Your smart phone… also dude. Parking meter? Dude.
You can use it for anything… but do not gender it.
Tsuru Bishio Kioke Shoyu is life-changing.

Thing is, “Android” is not a monolith. That can mean a whole bunch of different things… there is version fragmentation, vendor fragmentation, stock vs bloatware apps, dramatic capability differences, etc. So it’s not an “Android” vs “iOS” equation, but Android vs Android vs Android vs iOS.
From a software development POV, unless you are a big brand it almost never makes sense to develop for Android until after you’ve shipped an iOS product (if ever).
The phrasing is terrible. After reading the article, what they mean is that the ending was a full reset that lets them start over.
They consider the Tom Holland trilogy (so far) an “extended origin story”.
You can’t have tried to succeed from the US.
Psst: It’s “secede”
This will require gradual change by actively working toward socially abolishing the very concept of gender roles.
They are not being bought by regular people like you - they are being bought by investment companies, hedge funds, and filthy rich investors... all for the the sole purpose of turning them into rentals.
By turning them into rentals, they keep supply low which increases prices... which prevents people from buying, keeping rental demand high, which also lets them charge exorbitant rental rates. They are gaming both sides of the system to ensure that us peasants can be milked dry over a fundamental human need.
