And the graphics still hold up! I’m playing it now, and it looks great.
Somehow, I never got around to playing any entry in the Crysis series. I should fix that at some point. I hope my 3080 is enough to run it.

Oh yeah, the game leans really heavily into diegetic design, with weapon degradation and the map and stuff. Love that.
In fact, I just installed it. I wonder how far I’ll make it before it gets too depressing to go on =D

I enjoy a good power fantasy as much as anyone, but I have a soft spot for the crushing bleakness of Far Cry 2. Everyone is a shithead. You’re a shithead. You will always end up taking missions for both sides in the conflict, perpetuating it. Most of them involving war crimes. The only missions where you don’t do evil are the ones where you’re paid in malaria medicine which you need to not die.
You get a bunch of buddies which will likely get killed one by one, possibly by you as a mercy killing. And those who survive will end up betraying you.
It’s such a nihilistic game. No hope, no redemption. I couldn’t get into FC3 after that. Even though it was a ton of fun mechanically, Far Cry 2 just hits different.

- Comment on Do old people still remember their childhood? Do people just start losing their memories and their sense of self as they get older? 5 days ago:
My dad almost died recently (he got better). The experience lead to several vivid memories from my childhood resurfacing. Memories I forgot I forgot. I would have remembered them if I had a reason to I think, but I had no reason to and so I didn’t until then.
It also made me realise that while previously I thought of my life as a continuous experience, I now feel like there’s a gap in there somewhere. The child me and the present me are separated my more than just time filled with stuff. And there may be more gaps, breaking my life into even smaller pieces now that I think about it.
It’s all still in threre, I don’t think I’ve really forgotten anything, but I don’t have a reason to remember a lot of stuff from the past so I just don’t.

I finally got started on Disco Elysium. When I was playing Planescape Torment, I thought the game would have been better if it got rid of combat altogether and just be dialogue. And what do you know! Seems like that’s exactly what DE is. Awesome.
