I'll mention something different for my own contribution than my usual:
I've always hated Seinfeld, including when his show was brand new. "It's a show about nothing!" was a thought terminating cliche in the 90s that was used to pitch the show at me again and again by its fans, and also to dismiss any and all problems I had with the show and its ultra-privileged smarmy main character. If I got anything valuable out of that show and for that matter his stand up routine, it was a lifelong allergy to New Yorker comedy that front loads a whole lot of "I am a New Yorker which means I am smarter and tougher and wiser and more cultured and more sophisticated yet more grounded than you" self-aggrandizement into the set. :nyet:

Every game should let the player pick their version like KSP does - and if they don't then Steam should implement it by default (without you having to go through the weird process of looking up build numbers and using Steam's command line). Most useful feature of the game by far.
See, I just pirated every new version that came out. Nice and simple that way. Comes with free DLC too!
