• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What was the first game you ever bought ?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I wqs pretty young, not sure how old but definitely still in middle school I wanna say. But the first game that I bought with my money was a game called Blockland, which was kind of a fusion between roblox and garrys mod that leaned more into the lego visual aesthetic. I remember doing a lot of map exploration solo to find secrets the mapmakers put in. Fun times.

  Its hilarious how little they respect copyright, there’s even Link BotW and Roadhog Overwatch in there too

  So does the mother cell no longer exist, or is she her own daughters and still totally the same amoeba lady, just twice?

  PatStaresAt is your guy. RE is his cozy comfort series, and he’s super knowledgeable about the franchise.

  Wtf didn’t they make a shitzillion dollars? Why are they needing help to ‘pay the bills’? Did they squander all of that money on EGS and avocado toast? Smh

  And sequel to a sequel to a sequel, while we’re at it, since NieR itself was a sequel to drakengard

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Young gamers in Japan may not be forming the same attachment to Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest because modern dev cycles are as long as their childhood, users theorize - AUTOMATON WEST⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, that makes sense. Do they need to be forming attachments to the same series that we did though? Certainly stories told by contemporary writers are more likely to resonate with someone growing up in today’s world, rehashing and up the stuff that resonated with us isn’t necessarily the best move for getting the youths on board. Let the ones with interest in the history of gaming play dragon quest and final fantasy.

  didn’t that one rebrand to stoat, and then reveal they’re into slop coding?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Games you fell out of love with.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  World of Warcraft. It was a magical, formative game for me as a kid who had just got his own PC. When eventually I had to stop paying subs because I was a poor teenager with no income, i always yearned to go back, and mostly played on private servers. When I finally got both the time and money to revisit… bizzard was in their cosby suite era, and the game kinda sucked ass. It felt gross and i havent been back since.

  Im convinced the term ‘adulting’ is a psyop by old people to infantilize the younger generations

  this is making my ttrpg group actually consider letting me host stuff for them and I’m unironically thrilled… so like, matrix is the way, right? Or should I be looking at mumble or something?

  why is this man talking at me when he could’ve just transcribed the situation like a normal person

  thanks for the article, op

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is immersion to you?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The only quality that matters is that sweet sweet dissociation. When I lose track of time in Rimworld and suddenly its midnight, thats immersion to me. When the controller rumbles in skyrim, thats the opposite of immersion because I feel my own hands touching a controller and am reminded I exist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What challenge from a game isn't worth completing and what challenge from a game is worth completing?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Filling out your arsenal with adversary weapons in warframe gets easier the more you do, and a lot of them are really worth while… but maxing them out? Hell no, that’s 5 forma a pop, and the valence bonus is NOT worth re-grinding out. I’m glad DE has made the Infested Adversaries easier to deal with, so the valence bonus is easier to max out but good god. that’s too much forma.

  Fuck yeah space funeral. One minute you’re being jumpscared by dramatic Charles Baudelaire readings and then chatting up Dracula in the next. It fucking rules

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favorite RPG maker games?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Fear and Hunger 2 is pretty swell. The first one was kind of a bit too edgy for the sake of edginess, but miro did a much better job on the sequel
