They only speak of software in the article, and a “$200” theoretical price tag. Their hardware breaks … constantly … for anything I have purchased in the last 4-5 years. Zero change I would give them $200 for a mouse and trust them to keep it working / the service online forever.

Logitech has become so cheaply made, the idea of them making anything “forever” is very laughable.

This man is evil.

If he is in a group of like minded people, then all the power to them.

We have played with people like this in the past, it can get really old really fast. We constantly had to remind them what to roll, what skills / feats / abilities they had, etc. Sometimes there would be a side bar for a character or two for a quick 15-20-minutes. After the PC(s) involved would finish their actions, the player not invested would add what they want to do and we would remind them that they didn’t go. Same thing as above, they were not on their phone or having side conversations. They were just a backseat passenger in their own mind when it came to the game.

We are far from a hardcore group. We regularly interrupt the session for other conversations, it is almost always parallel to a beer share so there is lots of distractions. Even then, the bare minimum for play is at least wanting to participate. The above post is the kind of play I need to do when hand holding my 5-year old along. They are just social loafing and want the “fun parts” (to them) to them at the rest of the tables expense.

With all the tripe released between then and now, it feels like well over a decade ago.
