As long as they never again include the “::: spoiler spoiler fag hunter :::” arcade/mini game that one of the physical releases had back in the day, and ideally fucking apologize for that shit, cool and I hope it goes well. Apart from that inexcusable bullshit, I’m a huge fan of Postal 2

- Comment on You really have to reach back to remember how THIS worked in your car 1 week ago:
That, plus a portable CD-MP3 player, was the bomb.
I still have my iRiver iMP-350, a portable CD player that could read mp3 and wma files off a CD-R or CD-RW, allowing way more than 74 or 80 minutes of audio. Damn thing still mostly works 22 years later too, thanks in large part to them including a 2x AA battery dongle in addition to the gumstick-shaped rechargeable batteries in the main unit which have long since leaked.
When they started selling head units with aux in ports, I had to have one in my car. And when they started putting iPod connectors in head units, perfection.

Tokyo Jungle, YES!
A game so sadly lost to time. My partner’s PS3 still has it installed, but no idea if the hard drive is still functional…

I used none of these sites and I’m telling you he seems like the type from the perspective of an outsider, and occasional victim/target of those kinds of sites :P

He acts like a somethingawful/4chan veteran. Every now and then something along those lines slips out and rubs me the wrong way too.
Like he’s often the good kind of libertarian, but occasionally also the bad kind.

you’re absolutely right about the rush when everything is on the line.
my most memorable moment was at night, pitch black out, and there’s some idiot kid screaming about Shrek running around outside. I had a pipe shotgun and a small bunch of resources, and I was hiding in my tiny 1x1 shack.
that was the scariest shit on earth. and when he came knocking on my door asking me some shit about Shrek it gave me a few seconds to line up the shot through the door, so I quickly opened it and fired. immediately the yelling about Shrek ceased and I was left with complete silence and darkness.

- Comment on What is your favorite indie game? 5 weeks ago:
Monster Sanctuary was so good. I tried it when I had Game Pass, and I loved it so much I bought it outright for Xbox, and then again on Steam. Also got the hardcover monster journal.
Aethermancer, made by the same folks, is looking really good from their demo. Clearly lots of inspiration from Monster Sanctuary but very much its own sort of game
- Comment on What is your favorite indie game? 5 weeks ago:
Monster Sanctuary. A superbly polished, extremely fun, and decently challenging metroidvania and monster collecting/battling game. If you played the first few Pokemon generations on gameboy and don’t find the newer games capture that same magic, check out Monster Sanctuary!
Pacific Drive. A station wagon building amd exploration game set in a STALKER-esque Pacific Northwest in the Olympic mountain range. Extremely original and unique game, and with an excellent soundtrack.
Hardspace Shipbreaker: spaceship salvage, with increasing hazards and challenges and complexity of ship systems to expertly disassemble. With a pretty cool workers’ solidarity and union struggle type of plot.
Rimworld. Hundreds of hours lost.
Stardew Valley. A literally perfect game.
Terraria. Also a literally perfect game.
Caves of Qud. Like if Dwarf Fortress adventure mode was actually polished, and also if distant future scifi with mutants and cybernetics and sentient plants and sapient gun turrets.
Dwarf Fortress. It’s Dwarf Fortress.
WolfQuest. Wolf simulator set in Yellowstone, with a focus on real world accuracy. So cool to raise a pack and manage territory and hunt and explore and howl a lot
Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. A brilliantly executed spiritual successor to Jet Set Radio Future.
Descenders. Crazy fun downhill bicycling game.
- Comment on What is your favorite indie game? 5 weeks ago:
+1 for Pacific Drive. Nothing else like it out there. And you get to form a relationship with a station wagon, which is peak passenger vehicle design.
And the soundtrack is outstanding!
