- Comment on "Palworld is going to be the survival crafting game everyone always wanted" and "people will be shocked" at how big 1.0 is, says Pocketpair publishing lead 2 days ago:
Nintendo mostly lost. They did have to make some minor game updates, glider pals no longer appear when gliding, and you can’t throw a captured pal’s sphere on summon.
- Comment on Xbox as a platform is officially dead 1 week ago:
Xbox 360 emulation is getting better, so it would be playable on pc.
- Comment on How to I prove to someone that the U.S. moon landing wasn't staged? 1 week ago:
The Saturn V rocket was also massive overkill on power. It had about 50% more thrust than a falcon heavy that is currently being used for planned moon missions.
- Comment on I want to replay Skyrim but 1 week ago:
Apart from semi standard bug fix and texture mods.
Try the ordinator mod for a complete overhaul of skill trees to be a lot more interesting. It also makes playing a caster a lot more interesting compared to the vanilla experience. You probably also want the uncapper mod to customize the amount of perks you get per level.
Personally I also use material chest mods that are basically cheats to level crafting skills, I’m not interested in grinding them out multiple times. Up to you if you want to use them to gear yourself as well or not.
If you want the game to feel truly different, you need to change your play style as well. Playing a dual wielding berserker is a lot different than a stealth archer.
- Comment on Jason Schreier says Sony is backing away from putting single player games on PC 2 weeks ago:
I’m already at the point I don’t really need to buy anymore games, and my library isn’t even that old or impressive. Add emulation and it’s even harder to justify purchases.
- Comment on it keeps getting momentum 4 weeks ago:
I hope not, that’s basically what 2008 was. We could at least get a new reason.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
Your neighbors would be lucky to have a house if it actually went off.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
There’s a lot of reasonableness and average person would expect in law, but needing a supersonic bullet to hit it is well out of reasonable territory.
- Comment on Name it 5 weeks ago:
I understand the appeal, but I can’t call wow good looking overall. Mechanically and design wise it’s great.
- Comment on Name it 5 weeks ago:
The character models look awful though. draenei and blood elf were massive improvements.
- Comment on Name it 5 weeks ago:
They toned down the ass in the legendary edition unfortunately.
- Comment on How does this thing work? (wrong answers only) 5 weeks ago:
It’s steam, like almost all power obviously.

Kid Rock is the guy you call when everyone else said no and you can only pay in Bush Light.
- Comment on Im curious what they will come up with 5 weeks ago:
Yea, but that still was a funny episode as their beliefs were played as a joke. There’s not anything funny about sex trafficking and ritual killing.
- Comment on Im curious what they will come up with 5 weeks ago:
They need an episode with a disclaimer the whole time that this actually happened. It wouldn’t be a fun episode though.
- Comment on What is the best way to drop 50lbs in two months without spending alot and no fad diets? 1 month ago:
Yep. You can’t outrun your fork.
- Comment on Why do you need a launcher? (asking older gamers actually) 1 month ago:
The real killer feature was not having to manage cd keys to install games on new computers or just reinstall them.
- Comment on What if the USA decided to use another language as its *de facto* national language at it's founding? How would it affect the world? 1 month ago:
In the sense that the US is a product of British colonialism then yes. Global communication wasn’t anywhere near robust until the empire was in decline.
- Comment on Moder games with Abuse-like controls scheme? 1 month ago:
Shootas Blood and Teef. A 40k themed side scrolling shooter with very heavy stylized graphics. If you like 40k it’s a good insight in how orks see themselves. If you don’t like 40k it’s still a mechanically solid game and it doesn’t really have the same grimdarkness that is common in 40k games.
- Comment on If I publish my memoir and wrote about every bad thing people did to hurt me while the people mentioned are still alive, how much trouble could I get in? 2 months ago:
There are anti-slapp laws to help with this, but they aren’t always used appropriately.

That’s not actually a solid defense as “fictional” characters that are obviously someone that exists can still be ruled libel. A common informal defense is to give the fictional person a small penis. It doesn’t change anything legally, but it does require someone suing you to admit in court that they have a small penis.
- Comment on Pet Peeves with Games? 2 months ago:
I don’t mind RNG, I mind games that rely on it over proper design. Xcom has tons of RNG, but it’s generally still possible to win most maps with proper strategy. Most roguelikes have this problem where any given run is impossible to win regardless of play.
- Comment on Pet Peeves with Games? 2 months ago:
I do appreciate the games that give you quit and quit to desktop in the same menu.
- Comment on Pet Peeves with Games? 2 months ago:
- Games that offer stealth as an option over combat, but have mandatory combat bosses.
- games that have excessive grinding as part of the main gameplay.
- Games where randomness is the primary factor in winning and losing.
- Comment on Anon thinks about wheat 2 months ago:
That chemical is a calorie.
- Comment on Anon thinks about wheat 2 months ago:
- Ancient people were as intelligent as we are.
- It didn’t have to start at a massive scale, it was likely a smaller start that spread and expanded.
- Finding and making food was the thing everyone spent all their time on until the agricultural revolution, even then is was still almost everyone. It wasn’t until the industrial revolution that a majority of people weren’t focused exclusively on food production.
- Comment on Anon tries to understand credit scores 2 months ago:
Investing is great for retirement funds, over the 30 years or so it’s great for returns. It’s terrible to invest principle you need in scope of months or 1-2 years even.
If you have 20k and a 20k loan, putting that money in the stock market is stupid if you need that money to pay the loan. If you have 20k, a 20k loan, and income to cover loan payments in addition to living, it may be beneficial to invest that 20k, but it’s still relatively high risk.
- Comment on Anon tries to understand credit scores 2 months ago:
It’s gone down moth over month many times though. If you are dependant on that principle month to month it’s insane to trust the market.
- Comment on Anon tries to understand credit scores 2 months ago:
Having 20k plus the cash flow to pay a 20k loan is a totally different scenario than buying a car for cash. If you need that 20k to pay the 333/month, it’s stupid to trust the market isn’t going to go down, and simple savings would net you maybe $500.
- Comment on Anon tries to understand credit scores 2 months ago:
The average cost of a car is wildly skewed by luxury models and the absurd prices of new cars. The market has gotten more expensive, so it is more difficult to find reliable cars in the sub 5k range, but under 10k is possible. It’s possible to save a few hundred bucks a month and get progressively better cars without financing them, because depreciation isn’t significant at the low end of the market.
