where the truth of the apocalypse hits you, the dread of being alone against the world knowing you will fail but not knowing how and when
That’s a pretty interesting take.

They already tried it once (remember Stadia?), and they will try again!

I saw the release announcement and was thinking about pinging you about it, guess I didn’t have to!
When you mentioned Jerry finding something he could actually love, I thought you will be talking about eating chickens next 😀
Glad to see Jerry and Cable back, looking forward to their adventures.
- Comment on Best Joycon 2 alternatives recommendations? 5 days ago:
I don’t have much experience with any third party Joycon, but SwitchUp guys recently mentioned Nyxi Hyperion 3 in one of their videos (it was sponsor of the video, so take that as you may - here’s the link to video: youtu.be/YvL7thsQnu8?t=29).

Heh, hearing lots of similar sentiments from different people.

Interesting. Thanks for the info!

I am not a horror fan but Dead Space is fun. Played the original on PS3 and have been thinking of playing the remake (since I got it for “free” from PS+).

Hehe, no worries.

Yeah, it has been same for all PlayStation videos.

Congratulations on 2 years! I knew it was coming up but I forgot the basic math that 365 + 365 = 730. It’s good to see you still going strong!
I think having Halo as number 1 was easy guess. Didn’t think Oblivion would tie up with Assassin’s Creed Shadow, but it might be cause there have been multiple Assassin’s Creed, so they feel a lot more. If you still have the numbers, I am curious where AC will rank if you count whole franchises instead of games (like with Halo)? I think that will give Mario Kart a chance to compete for top games too.
I think I missed your Oneshot post, going to lookup the game.
Here’s to many more years of playing and enjoying games!

Happy Cake Day!
- Comment on Should I buy a Switch 2 despite owning an OLED? 2 weeks ago:
Is there any news on that? Or just rumours?
- Comment on Contemplating on playing a controversial developer's bought game 2 weeks ago:
Same, the boycott is to not give them money. If something is already paid it doesn’t effect them if we don’t play it.
- Comment on Should I buy a Switch 2 despite owning an OLED? 2 weeks ago:
I think any console buy should be based on whether it has games that you want to play.
If there are games that you want, but not enough of them, you can always wait, these games aren’t going anywhere, and as a bonus you can get the EU battery variant, even if they don’t release OLED version anytime soon.
If you are sure you’ll want to buy one in next couple of years, even without OLED, and don’t care about the EU variant, then this might be a good time to buy one, before the price increases.
It all depends on your situation.
- Comment on Xbox needs to make a choice, says former PlayStation leader Shawn Layden: be a publisher or a platform, but you can't be both 2 weeks ago:
As a first-party platform, our job was almost not to be the biggest game publisher in the world. In fact, it was against our interest to start muscling our partners out of the pie. We weren’t there to steal; I wasn’t making games so I could steal market share from EA or steal market share from Activision. My job was to make games that made the pie bigger, and my opportunity was in growing it out.
He isn’t talking about being a publisher, its about being the biggest publisher.

It’s the Zombies! They have done something to your controller so you don’t rescue those people!
Looking forward to whenever you get back it!
- Comment on Day 722 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, Ubisoft games also get huge discounts pretty soon, so it’s generally better to wait for the sale.

Where is my Project Zomboid? Why are you forgetting the poor people stuck in zombie apocalypse!?

with the head bobbing thing he does where he looks like a chicken
lol
What do you think about Black Flag remake? Going to play it?
- Comment on Day 718 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 3 weeks ago:
Same here, I turn off most of the these kind of notifications.
Ironically I found my way over here to Lemmy and get on daily for my screenshots. So… I guess I ended up doing that anyways lmao
Well, those daily check-ins are just for consuming content, turning you towards what some people call “zombie”. You are here creating content, that is much different, having a daily streak for something positive is a great way to keep the momentum going. Jerry Seinfeld’s “daily chain” strategy is one of the famous examples.

Any game that expects regular attendance is an immediate mood killer from me.
This is my biggest issue with mobile games. Log in every day to get a gift, or keep a streak, annoys me too much so I mostly just end up deleting them.
Animal Crossing was different, I mostly played it cause I wanted to, and since whole family was playing it, it was a completely different experience.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
Apparently its not a remake, more of a retelling, so there are probably going to be some other changes too.
- Comment on Physical disc production ending in January 2028 for new games releasing on PlayStation consoles 4 weeks ago:
That is why you need a strong competition. Unfortunately Sony doesn’t have one, so they can do whatever they want.

Switch 2 has more exclusives in an year than PS5 has to date. 😀

AI upscaling to 8k with 120FPS!
I think we haven’t even fully utilised current gen power, not sure what the next-gen will be.
- Comment on Guess the game (#004) 4 weeks ago:
So true. I have never played the game (though it has been in my Steam Library for a long long time) and instantly recognised the game from the picture.

You should have written the last paragraph first, would have gotten less downvotes.

Cool, definitely going to try it.
And thanks, going to just steal whatever I like from now on 😀

I was skipping Twilight Princess posts cause I haven’t played it yet and want to go in blind (some day). Hope it’s get a good remake too.
These are really good pictures. I am going to steal the first two for my wallpaper.
