Hi Guys!
I'd like to know your opinion about this question:
Why do you want/care about online play?
As I understand some will go as far as to purchase a new device for it.

I prefer playing offline since NES when I was kid.. Still today through PS4. OFFLINE. An online is not for me. Never was and never will.

I myself dread online play because of two things:
1. Unstable internet ruining the experience
2. Cheaters

cpu's are stupid!
Yeah! Pretty much often sadly!
It always amuses me to let the CPU move around with the ball and not shooting in FIFA 18:D

Because when I play with CPU it feels so...empty? I feel alone when I play with CPU.
And I don't have friends irl to play, so online play is really great for me...specially because it takes you to a random room with new people everytime, I really love it

Updates and DLC are priority for me. Next would be playing games with my family. We have multiple carts for that but I dove into the brew-train (I mean who wouldn't want to be able to freely backup save files) and I'll likely end up banned for it but meh the few games I really care about seem to offer local play at least.

A lot of the games I play now have some sort of online component to them, but I tend to leave most of them alone. Save games like Destiny, Borderlands 2, Diablo. But I usually play while in a chat party just to talk to my friends even if we are all playing different stuff.

    Will you give me mouth to mouth oxygen if my throat closes?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Nah the air can do that
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Ask @x65943 he's trained for that stuff
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Kissing random dudes choking in celery? Really? Need to study for that?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Yes it requires a degree
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    I could also yank out the rest of my teeth but theirs professionals for that
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    "Just kiss me Kyle." And I thought all the godreborn gay stuff was a smear campaign
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    If I die, tell my momma I won't be carrying Baby Jesus this christmas :sad::cry:
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:

    Sweet found my Wii u PSU right after I ordered a new one :tpi:
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It literally turns it on.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Yeah power supplies are filthy perverts
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
