- Comment on The excellent survivor-like Halls of Torment is getting a big DLC and free update 15 hours ago:
I just played some an hour ago. I’ve had it for a while and haven’t played much. I’ve only unlocked three characters and two levels.
It’s fun. I very much enjoy the sound of skeletons bones clattering when they die.
Movement seems slower than any other survivors game I’ve played. It’s a little too slow for my taste but upgrades and gear do make it faster.
I agree you should go back to it. The aesthetics are fantastic.
- Comment on Valve now require UK Steam users to verify their ages with a credit card, thanks to the Online Safety Act 2 days ago:
Ah I was going off what I heard from people living in the UK. They might have been wrong.
But steam cards are just steam gift cards
- Comment on Valve now require UK Steam users to verify their ages with a credit card, thanks to the Online Safety Act 3 days ago:
I imagine they have steam cards in the UK.
The age check is only with credit cards though. Debit cards won’t verify your age.
They force you to open a line of credit if you can’t verify your age via the other methods they have.
- Comment on Vampire: the Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 Pre-Order Trailer 1 week ago:
I really liked the first one when I was younger. More than it deserved probably. It hit a lot of the right stuff for me.
I don’t have any good expectations for this new one. It should be something I’m looking forward too but I’m not. Much less pre ordering it.
I hope it’s good. If it is I’ll play it.
- Comment on Slay The Princess - Official Announcement Trailer 2 weeks ago:
This post made me finally start this game up. I bought it a long time ago but didn’t play it.
I played maybe an hour and so far it is fantastic. Can’t wait to play more.
- Comment on Is there a place online where I can apply for a bunch of free books? I was thinking of creating a library in my local county jail to help educate and pass the time in a healthy way? 2 weeks ago:
People like to read?
I’m not sure what you’re asking. I grew up with books as gifts and access to a library. I would literally sometimes read a random book. Some of my favorite books are unknown because they’re old and not remarkable to most people. They just got read by me at the right time to leave a lasting impression.
- Comment on [Megathread] Payments Processors & Collective Shout VS NSFW games 4 weeks ago:
Huh, I never really thought about it when I was on reddit but I sure ended up ignoring the megathreads.
On steam there’s often dedicated threads to post bugs/questions and somehow they make it harder for me to find a problem or solution also. I usually will find what I need in a different thread.
- Comment on Oh yes... 5 weeks ago:
Same here. Though usually it’s not by choice.
I definitely get more tired than I used to
- Comment on Mass Effect 5 is "still in pre-production" says director as BioWare shifts full focus to the sci-fi RPG amid dev reshuffles and reported layoffs 1 month ago:
I thought the gameplay was improved. I mean the actually mechanics. Clearing whatever the underground chambers were was a slog. The majority of the enemies were rather uninteresting too.
The story was pretty weak but it had some interesting side stuff. It could have been far better especially with the arks.
Huh…I guess I agree with middling. I had more fun replaying the trilogy.
- Comment on I may have a chance to see GWAR later this year; what should I know before going? 1 month ago:
I’ve never been into them either. Their show is well worth it though.
It was over a decade ago and before Oderus died. I’m sure it’ll still be fun though
- Comment on I may have a chance to see GWAR later this year; what should I know before going? 1 month ago:
When I went I didn’t bring any spare clothes. Took the train home. I don’t think the color sticks much.
It was a long time ago but I don’t remember any weird looks from anyone or feeling any different from leaving other concerts.
Gwar was a ton of fun and I hope you have a blast!
- Comment on Ancient Aliens vs Predator game briefly resurrected by Steam player thirst for Six Packs 1 month ago:
I remember getting stuck as predator in some jungle encampment. Definitely was a game.
AVP2 has more memories for me as a kid. Loved starting as a face hugger.
- Comment on Meet Demonlisher, the maze game that's actually a demon slayer 1 month ago:
I have a few games I really enjoyed that have mixed reviews. It’s a shame that when I’m browsing I’ve been conditioned to mostly ignore mixed and below. Usually they have significant problems that negate anything cool.
I’m going to try this out based on your post and the other positive reviews I saw
- Comment on (PC) Chill farming games (non-Anime)? 2 months ago:
I second travelers rest. I’m not too far in it despite owning it for years. It’s very chill. I don’t think there’s any real time limits. The only real issue I’ve had with it was accidentally opening my inn and not realizing a crowd has developed with no one to serve them.
Graveyard keeper is pretty good too but I stopped playing after needing extra kinds of materials. It’s been a while but the farming of the resources was just a little too much for the type of experience I was after. I’ll get back to it eventually. I liked the idea of the game a lot.
- Comment on Anon loves The Lord of the Rings 2 months ago:
I remember having a lot of trouble with letho specifically
I did love Witcher 2. Played through twice. Besides the combat everything else was spectacular at the time.
- Comment on What are ways to independently make a few bucks on the side? 2 months ago:
Aw I was curious.
Thanks though seriously for the book suggestion. I’m going to read it as I am at a position in life I need to make a serious change.

What career did you discover with this book?
- Comment on The Dishonored-style sim about escaping a town ruled by a kaiju policeman is getting a public playtest 2 months ago:
This game looks pretty interesting. I wonder how it will handle damage to buildings from the giant hands.
- Comment on Amid AI Plagiarism, More Professors Turn to Handwritten Work 2 months ago:
Article says the teacher is using handwriting for in class assignments. I suppose you could hide your phone and copy answers from that but at that point your back to regular cheating.
I always hated handwriting in school because my hand also cramps easily. I’ve heard the proper way to write is using arm motions. Makes sense to me because my writing is all using my wrist with my hand crab clawed around a pencil.
