Okay, PS5 games are just gorgeous. I started Death Stranding director's cut today and I didn't expect this quality or how touching the story is. It's so real that I feel like living a movie. Open mouth!

Going back to EU - switching mindset again. We are really complaining too much about everything. What if we were more positive and concerned only about what is in our reach? (Let's change what is in our reach rather than complaining about what isn't - one step at a time and let's change the world)
