The thing is what is the consensus of “runs well”? Is it a FPS constant? No glitches? Fast loads?
My point is, a game can come shitty and run a constant 30 fps under the “recommended” since that’s what they thought was appropriate
Is a gray area that should be more descriptive, not sure why downvote me

Not that I remember, true that it didn’t handle the last gen consoles, and that it was marketed as quite demanding
Sadly “minimum” or “recommended” just tells us the game runs, not that it runs well

I’d argue It is heavily inspired, and not copied.
The game has been in development for some years now, you can even find some early ads for It. And the lack of action by Nintendo, in all this time, tells me there’s no bases for any legal action.
I’ve seen comparisons for all the pals and the “look alike” pokemons, and honestly, some are inspired by pokemons and some are similar just because they are based on the same animal, I haven’t seen any blatant copies.

- Comment on sleep paralysis 4 weeks ago:
It’s not a feeling that you can rationalize by looking at It from the outside.
It’s a primal and visceral feeling, a fight or flight situation. Sometimes you even think “hey this is a sleep paralysis, I can just ignore and go back to sleep”, but you usually can’t, and your body screams “danger, danger, danger, run away, fight back”, but you can’t move, or scream, or “wake up”. It bites of our instincts, and It’s hard to describe afterwards, but you wake up scared and bit relieved that you’re alive.
It gets worse If you hallucinate, all sorts of distorted figures and creatures appear, all fabrication of your brain of course, but since you’re half awake, they are half real as well, you can feel their presence like a sixth sense, when you look at a dark corner or a dark hallway and you know something is lurking there, sometimes you can even “touch” them if they come near enough.
I had and episode one time that I had to keep pushing a floating demonic mask away from me, I could only move my right wrist, and yes I could somewhat touch the thing, and I had this primal fear that If that thing approached my head, I would die.
It’s a really hard concept to describe, but once you experience It, you never forget the feeling.
- Comment on I bought frozen BBQ eel and the best before date says LJ349. What does this mean? 4 weeks ago:
I’ve seen food expire before the date stated, so you should also take into account where you live and the regulatory entities that manage your food and stuff.
I’d say always do the sniff if you are worried.

the dlc is really good, albeit short, it feels really long
all the characters are well written and it’s hard to straight up hate/like them, the gray area is real
also, theres 4 more ending added if I’m not mistaken, give It a shot

the faulty console launch aside, cp77 came as a really good game, one of the best story and characters I’ve seen in a while

- Comment on EA flop Immortals of Aveum reportedly cost around $125 million, former dev says "a AAA single-player shooter in today's market was a truly awful idea" 2 months ago:
I think the problem is just that, the game is… okay, not bad or good, just okay, unremarkable and forgettable.
If you want good sales you need to do something innovative and interesting, or something cliché but really well done.
Taking a look at Doom 2016 (also a single player shooter) we can see the core gameplay: Shoot demons, Pick up ammo, Shoot more demons. But it’s crafted so masterfully that you spend dozens or hundreds of hours doing just that.
Now with this game that I actually forgot the name mid comment, It’s… well you get the ideia.
- Comment on behold. dog 4 months ago:
In the souls series you can use a special item to leave messages in the actual world for other players to see, be It a warning, a tip or even jokes.
When writing these messages, you have to choose a template, that usually have one or more blank spaces, then you choose between their bank of word (locations, items, concepts, monsters, items, etc), to fill the blanks.
Alas, in Elden Ring, we don’t have the word “turtle or tortoise”, despite having many turtles in the game, like wild and friendly tortoises, an even a literal Tortoise Pope as an NPC.
With this lack of description, we then use the word “Dog”, which is available, and honestly pretty funny, you see a tortoise in the wild, and a message near It, then you click thr message and…
“Behold, Dog!”
“Ah… if only I had a Dog”
“Why must it always be Dog?”
“Be aware of Dog”
“Dog ahead”

The car is parked tho, you could spray the oil around the glass a bit, so they use the wiper first thing
