  I think you can still play the original version if you still have your login info. That’s what the official download page seems to imply. Don’t quote me on that, though.

  They already dragged me back with Reforged. I’m guess I’m in it for the long haul.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you cheat in games?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t play games to beat records. I play them to relax after work.

  If I die a hundred times, its a lot easier to switch to a game that’s at the difficulty I’m willing to engage with. Sure, I can manually tweak the difficulty to make it easier, that can help, but when I do that it’s too easy to score an own goal. Once you start cheating, you fall into the trap of making the game too easy or boring. Nine times out of 10, it’s so much easier to just switch to a different game. And the fact that my backlog is astronomical in size doesn’t help.

  I do use save states out of convenience, though. Sometimes the save point is too far away and life just gets in the way.

  It has been a long time since I bought an EA game, yeah. Bioware was their only developer that I cared for.

  Are there any soulslikes that take place underwater or with moon gravity? I think you might be onto something with that description

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PlayStation boss says single-player games won’t come to PC going forward | VGC⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Only 300?

  Some of the games in my backlog came out in 1998.

  I watch 0 of these, only recognize 2 names because I know other people watch them.

  Its amazing how fragmented our feeds have become.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Game preservation only works if people care" As GOG doubles down on its commitment to saving old games, it's asking players "who give a s**t" to support its crusade⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I love old games

  New games, not so much

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Social media, not gaming, tied to rising attention problems in teens, new study finds⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Speaking as someone who grew up with video games and only reluctantly engages with social media, I think I understand how the previous generation felt about me

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some good games to play while sick?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It is. It’s actually the first entry in the Science Adventure series. Steins;Gate comes after, though it also works as a standalone story. Robotics;Notes has a lot more references to Chaos;Head.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some good games to play while sick?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Chaos;Head is a visual novel I’m tempted to recommend specifically for this type of situation. The plot revolves around a protagonist with the power to make his delusions into reality. It’d probably be trip to experience while sick.

  Augmented Steam has a ton of useful features, including better filters
