I was in the Summer event and came third or so for Jarvonia overall. Like a dope I stopped using Discord right after that and haven’t seen anything from the game since. Looks awesome, can’t wait to get in.

Welcome to the club, Take Two has been on my shitlist since they tried to sue modders or whatever the hell that was back in like 2017. I barely even remember why I hate them any more, I only remember deciding to boycott.

Looks like Eurogamer’s a bit behind, it’s been a month since the negative Steam reviews started flowing in.

“After” profits tumble? We haven’t even had a chance to buy FF16 or Rebirth yet, and if they’re like Remake there’ll still be a year to wait for it to get off Epic and onto Steam. Just sell us the damn game if you want money.

BioWare revealed that Dragon Age: Dreadwolf will allow players to explore much more of Thedas than in any previous entry

I know I’m very much in the minority here, but I loved 2 because it was so much smaller in scope. Origins was great too of course, but if I’m going to replay the series 2 is the one I’ll be looking forward to most. Inquisition was so big and boring to me, there were a million things to do but I didn’t care about any of them.

That’s been happening for ages. I’m sure if you check the profiles you’ll find other posts with all the same bots commenting. A lot of lazier ones wait exactly a year to repost, and it’s pretty obvious in subs for something like a live service game where they’ll be reposting complaints that are way out of date. One in the Monster Hunter sub reposted a trailer for Iceborne which had been out for 3 years by that point.

Nice. I’ve never played DF but I’ve got a good thousand hours in Rimworld (rookie here obvs). I’m thinking when I get home from work it’s time to update the modlist and waste all of my free time for the next month.

The first security job I ever worked was for a rich girl’s 21st birthday party at her house, my main duty was making sure nobody went to the stables and bothered the racehorses. I heard one of the kids say that her dad owned 2 Toyotas & her mum owned a Subaru, and I thought maybe they’re not so different from me after all because my parents have the same cars. Turns out she was talking about owning the car dealerships.

I was in a similar position. I’ve at least tried almost all of the games since Demon’s Souls on PS3 (plus a few other Soulslikes like Surge 2 & Last Remnant [edit: Last Remnant is something else entirely, i dunno. It was something like that]) and I could never get into them. Elden Ring especially is exactly the kind of world I love in games and I wanted so much to enioy it. It took a handful of 10-15-hour attempts over nearly two years before it finally clicked with me and I started really getting into it back in December. I got the platinum last week and then started Sekiro for the first time a few days ago, so let’s see how that goes.

My advice, if you can’t get into it give it a few months then take another honest crack at it. If you don’t enjoy yourself that’s fine, just try again next time you start thinking about the game, but if that switch finally flicks on you can clear your schedule for the next fortnight.

Exactly. If I ask someone for a source on something I feel is wrong it’s because I specifically want to know the information they’re working from. If I look it up straight away and send them a link that says they’re wrong straight out of the gate they aren’t even going to open it.

Throw in a little sweet chilli aioli or something to dip it in and I’d be happy with that, it looks like a pretty satisfying crust.

I’ve had several people comment on the way I tie my shoelaces. I can’t even remember how to do it the “normal” way, but I use that knot that takes about half a second where you make both loops at once and pull them through each other.

On the Connect app on mobile I get

Private mode detected! In order to read our site, please exit private/incognito mode or login to continue.

I could copy it into Firefox easily enough, but if they don’t want me looking at their site then I won’t 🤷‍♀️

Jesus, adblock detectors are one thing, but news sites are even blocking private mode now. People not reading past headlines is enough of a problem already without it being enforced.

Stuff+ generally always has a Prison Architect and one other game series going, then does one-shot videos of random indie stuff in between. He’s also not loud and annoying the way youtube gamers tend to be and doesn’t have a webcam feed covering a quarter of the screen, it’s just about the games.

I don’t know anything about the development, I just use it 🤷‍♀️ I imagine they probably have their own community you could ask. I’m still just scrolling though all with a good 1200+ communities blocked and every US politician’s name I could think of added to the title filters.

I switched to Connect months ago solely for the ability to manually hide posts.

Same. Until these things are physically in my hand I’ve got plenty of other stuff to get on with, what’s the point of wasting years chasing them. It’s the same with any marketing really, give me a title, pitch & release date, I’ll see you then.

It depends on the type of game I guess. I like the way Final Fantasy 13 did it when you arrived on Gran Pulse. Everything was there from the start of the chapter, there were some enemies you could handle, some that were a challenge, some that were out of your weight class and some that would wipe your team without even noticing you were there. You had to pick your battles and know when to bail. Despite the problems that game had, you could at least feel yourself getting stronger while the world stayed roughly the same.

I’m struggling to think of any situation in which invisibility would benefit me personally. Teleportation would save me over an hour a day of driving to/from work alone, plus hours at work itself, fuel & vehicle maintenance costs just about disappear, world travel becomes something possible to do any time of any day on a whim, you could do anything.
