you’re probably an idiot. I know I am.
I had good times on WoW for a long time, and a good time on a private UO server for awhile… Maybe I should look into a private WoW server. Blizzard (as it is today) is a shithole I don’t want to give more money, but my love for WoW as a property is undeniable.
I picked up Cyberpunk on the Steam sale so I’m just starting that. Aside from that, I’m kind of casually working my way through Coromon, which so far isn’t great but it scratching the Pokemon-like itch well enough. That said, if other folks were looking for a Pokemon-like to try, I’d recommend Cassette Beast a hundred times over before recommending Coromon.
Yeah I have no idea what fucking losers are out here downvoting people for their personal recommendations, but I can’t think of much worse basement-dweller behavior.
Eyyy I hadn’t heard that yet! That’s awesome, thanks for sharing!
Will do! I just started playing Moonlighter recently which is currently scratching that itch a bit
I haven’t ever played BPM, I’m sorry.
Celeste is 75% off and is a near-masterpiece of a game.
Portal 1 and Portal 2 are on sale again of course on the chance you haven’t yet hit these absolutely classic legendary games.
Persona 4 Golden is 40% off and is awesome, and Persona 5 Royal is 60% and is even more awesome.
Metal: Hellsinger is 70% off and while it isn’t a GOTY type game, it’s a hell of a lot of fun if you’re a contemporary metal music fan.
but my biggest recommendation is probably gonna be
Recettear: An Item Shop’s Tale at 80% for only $3.99 (US) which is an completely underrated hidden gem of a game and a huge recommendation for anyone who likes quirky cozy-hybrid games or who, like me, spent way too long on the shopkeeper segments in RPGs like Torneko Taloon’s chapter in DQIV.
edit: why in the world would anyone ever downvote a personal recommendation comment? Weird behavior, fam
The inability to resize the Undertale window without using a third-party program like Sizer continues to be INFURIATING to me.
Undertale is a good game, but it just makes me so goddamn angry every time I open it to not have control over the sizing on my own goddamn monitor that I haven’t been able to finish it.
Who cares? The Blizzard that anyone actually had any positive opinions on died years ago. All that’s left now is a zombie corpse animated by the worst of capitalism.
Fuck Blizzard, let them die
I wish Vivaldi wasn’t Chromium-based, because I think it’s the slickest browser out there.
But it’s chromium, so it’s time to move on to Firefox regardless.
Ladybird development can’t happen fast enough.
I have a Pixel. It is literally made by one of the largest advertising companies in the world.
Bigger screens mean bigger and more obtrusive ads.
I’m convinced this is 90% of the reason right here.
I would have pre-ordered Civ7, but then they announced it has Denuvo so now instead of pre-ordering I’m just not going to buy it at all.
Fuck denuvo and fuck corporations who think their customers should just bend over and accept whatever bullshit they offer for the “privilege” of playing their game.
There is so much good indie gaming content these days, we don’t need these abusive mega-corp games.
That’s exactly what the US government did under Teddy Roosevelt when it forced by law these large entities to divest and break up into smaller ones not subsidiarized to each other. And yes, they should also do this to Amazon and Microsoft.
edit: I guess I should say I understand they can’t force them to break up in this instance, but they can simply state they won’t do business with the entities at present and recommend it. If that doesn’t happen, I am confident other savvy investors will be happy to fill any hole left by these giants. The world will keep turning, I promise.
My friend, you yourself have been implying this whole time that Google’s infrastructure is too vital and important to remove - how do you not see that this means they are too powerful? Remember trust-busting? Remember anti-monopoly activism? Nobody thought that by breaking up the railroads people wouldn’t need trains anymore, but they understood the danger of allowing a single company to have such market dominance and what it that would mean for consumers. Same thing here. And yes, I’m aware this requires continual diligence as the phone companies that were once PacBell are now bigger than it was, but that lacking of failure to continue enforcing anti-trust doesn’t mean the concept is wrong.
No single company should be allowed to have such influence that very idea of them going away leads to the very doomsday considerations we’ve been talking about. That’s what this is all about.
Step one in saving us from the oncoming corporate technocracy?
None that insane hyperbole doomsday scenario would happen. None of it.
I think people and societies are vastly more resilient that you’re implying, and would survive an admittedly complex 6 month period to switch necessary services. Would it be hard? Yeah absolutely. But I’ve never accepted “but it’s so hard!!” as valid reason to hold off positive progress.
Yeah having already played D a couple years earlier, when Silent Hill came out it didn’t look like anything revolutionary to me, and replaying D had already shown me that cinematic horror only works the first time through anyway. Still don’t get the appeal.
