I’m in a similar situation. It looks really fun but I struggle to make it past the first few days.
There’s a painful learning curve that needs a way more comprehensive tutorial to overcome.
- Comment on Do elaborate on the accusations of "toxicity" 4 days ago:
A lot of us are pretty far left for the USA and believe the DNC is compromised by corporate money. I dislike the Democrats but the GOP is run by MAGA who I believe betrayed our country Jan 6th.
Saying shit like this is almost certainly why I’m on the list lol

Agreed. If I can make billions fracking and it costs me millions to shift the narrative for enough people to get my bill passed I’m still making tons of money.
Most of us want the same things, just some of us have completely ingested lies and half truths the news spews. They legitimately believe all leftists want Marxist communism across the world.

Don’t get me wrong, 2 hours for a game is hella short, but too many games want me to spend hundreds of hours on them and just aren’t good enough to justify that kind of time investment. The best games respect your time imo.

Just gotta find a decent private tracker and keep your ratio good.

It does automatically turn off after a turn, the only difference is really the second push in the same direction to turn it off. It just prevents the stalk from being pushed too far in the other direction.
- Comment on Poll: Will you buy GTA 6 when it launches on your platform? 4 weeks ago:
Yup, they haven’t even announced a release date. But I’m sure they’ll do typical Rockstar shit and charge the full $80 when they release it two years after console.
There’s thoughts it’ll come to PC sooner than five did because Rockstar postponed PC port of five to work on the next Gen console release, but I honestly don’t even care. There’s like 20 games in my backlog and other great games will release before then. The large lapse in time between titles has me feeling totally fine never playing 6.
- Comment on Poll: Will you buy GTA 6 when it launches on your platform? 4 weeks ago:
I’m trying to recall the last AAA game I even played when it was relatively new… Starfield I think and yeah, it sucked.
Loving an indie called Surroundead right now. $5 zombie survival open world and some guy just made a multiplayer mod and I can’t wait to play with my buddy.
- Comment on Poll: Will you buy GTA 6 when it launches on your platform? 4 weeks ago:
For me San Andreas was the best game. The mechanics were solid and the game had a whimsy to it that was completely thrown away with 4 and 5. I didn’t think the story writing was particularly good, but the characters and missions were super memorable and fun.
- Comment on Impossible 4 weeks ago:
It takes a little time to get used to but it’s ultimately the superior design. Light tap for three blinks, hard press to turn signal on, another tap in the same direction to disengage. You never accidentally click too far that other way.
- Comment on I still can't get over Skyrim. Are there any games that can replace it? 1 month ago:
Lol you can choose to play the character as gay if you’d like, but besides some dudes coming onto you there’s no forced gayness.
There’s definitely no mandatory gay sex scenes.
- Comment on What’s your favorite video game that most people didn’t like ?? 1 month ago:
I played for a few hours because I got it for free. I’ve been begging my gaming buddies to give it a shot but the initial impressions and reviews still have them scared.
Seemed pretty cool imo

No it’s kinda great because there’s already a banging catalog of games and they’re dirt cheap!
- Comment on 2 months ago:
Yup, I take the train and everyone who’s gaming is on their phone or a retro handheld. In the airport is a different story though.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
Exactly. I’ve put more hours on my retro handheld playing ps1 and SNES games in the last year than I’ve spent on my desktop. It was $26, and I’ve hardly even dented the library it’s got.

The core gameplay is solid. The story is fucking wack.
- Comment on GameSir Tako: A vertical phone controller for retro games. At $21 in China, is it worth it? 2 months ago:
I actually use a 3d printed device that holds a switch joycon on either side of my phone. It works in both horizontal and vertical orientations and leaves the entire screen open. I only really use it for DS games and still prefer standalone devices, I’ve been killed by a notification blocking my phone screen too many times!
- Comment on GameSir Tako: A vertical phone controller for retro games. At $21 in China, is it worth it? 2 months ago:
I had a whole thing typed out about why this thing feels inferior to a standalone. Then I realized it could be used for games developed for mobile, not just emulators. I get it now lol
- Comment on GameSir Tako: A vertical phone controller for retro games. At $21 in China, is it worth it? 2 months ago:
But for $35 I can get a r3x variant which has a screen, why would someone choose this over that?

Yeah, I think I got every weekly for the first two years and lots of times I never even drove the reward cars lol.
Good luck with 6, while I’m sure it’ll be great I am just not ready for another horizon.

Same as all of us. Basically Larry David but somehow better than the actual man.

Same energy lol
- Comment on The Struggle 3 months ago:
I am one of the OG hydro homies and it legit changed my life drinking more water. Skin cleared up (acne wasn’t terrible, but there was almost always some blemish), lost weight (less soda, less hunger in general), reduced stomach issues (helped with getting regular and not binging, just better general gut feeling), no more UTI’s.
I also get to pee like 4 times throughout the day at work which just helps break up the day.
- Comment on Forza Horizon 6's Japan map is the series' best yet 3 months ago:
I played the fuck outta the last two, but they were basically the same game. From what I’ve seen, not a lot has changed. There’s other driving games out there doing new things, so I have no incentive to start playing horizon 6.
The weekly challenges started feeling more like a chore than a fun experience, and the more or less required multiplayer races were usually awful. It would almost always be me and one other decent racer and the other 4 guys were garbage, you could lose the series even getting first in all the races because your team sucked so hard. I would often take an early lead then use my car to block the CPU cars, then after my teammates all got a solid lead I’d start racing again and usually get back into first. - Comment on "You Were Supposed to Feel Lost": Metal Gear Solid 2 and the Shock of Playing as Raiden 3 months ago:
I played through the mgs2 demo like 20 times, I knew every detail of that boat. The swap to Raiden was jarring and he just generally wasn’t quite as likeable or cool as snake. Game was still cool as heck and fun though.

- Comment on Double Dragon And River City Creator Yoshihisa Kishimoto Has Passed Away 3 months ago:
It’s kinda similar to the indie scene now, small teams or even solo devs can make things of a smaller scope and can try something totally new or innovate on an old idea in a way AAA games just can’t.
