  At least one of the modern Ghost Recon games has motorcycles.

  This doesn’t have the pretentious stuff of Witness.

  It’s a sokoban game, so it’s a grid-based puzzler about moving stuff around to get to an exit. It has a bunch of characters, each with distinct mechanics. It gets really interesting when you have multiple characters in play at once, requiring you to mix their abilities.

  So far, it looks to be one of the best of that genre, though it’s hard to tell how it will be later in the game.

  This article leaves out Order of the Sinking Star, a sokoban-style puzzler from the Braid/Witness designer.

  These are often two components stacked. There’s a cabinet box and a shelf unit. They may not have attached them if it’s a temporary backdrop just for this video. It’s also possible that the shelf is bolted to the wall, allowing the cabinet to slide underneath it.

  The Editor-in-Chief of the American Diabetes Association’s flagship journal was ejected and banned from the Association’s conference for handling out copies of an article from their journal. The Association blames security demands made by the Trump administration.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s your favorite video game that most people didn’t like ??⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Underneath the silliness, SR4 had a good story and great performances. I remember tearing up a bit during the car segment of the final mission.

  It is one of the few open-world sidequestapaloozas I have ever beaten because the story and insanity kept me coming back.

  You should either include something to wear it to or indicate that future gifts may go that direction. Dressing up to go to a show, symphony, etc can be a lot of fun and that resolves the “but I have nowhere to wear it” objection she would likely have.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there any such thing as "edutainment" shows for adults?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Veritasium is awful. So much misinformation, holier-than-though attitude, and disguised advertising. They are just pre-AI slop: Stuff that sounds correct presented in a convincing way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what’s your best “nitric acid acts upon trousers” moment?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Cyanoacrylate was formulated specifically to bond well with human skin. Liquid stitches.

  They all focus on letting anyone run fast, which just makes them feel like autopilot.

  Haste lets you run fast and actually gives the player control. It’s what a 3D Sonic should be.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is Fallout New Vegas considered a very transy game?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Blahaj has the same color scheme as the trans flag and is cute.

  Jr High teacher, so they’d be a few years past being her students. Age gap is problematic, but I don’t see any school-related abuse of power there.
