Yup this BAFFLED me for years. I was thinking things like “Why the HELL is Hot Fuzz reusing the sound effect from Diddy Kong Racing!?”

Check out Outward. It has a Morrowind/Everquest kind of feel. It’s an offline RPG, but you can play co-op. You have to basically discover all the mechanics/secrets through trial and error or talking to NPCs, which makes it feel very old school.

I bet there’s private PSO servers you could hop back into. I’m currently playing PSU on Clemantine and it’s an amazing nostalgia experience.

My friend and I played split screen for years in high school on a tiny 12" CRT. I’ll never forget finally beating the Ruins on extreme difficulty. He had to revive me 10 times during the boss fight because one attack would always 1-shot me. It was a 15-minute white-knuckle struggle, and it was incredible.

- Comment on Sony Sues Tencent Over Horizon Lookalike 2 weeks ago:
Eh this lawsuit actually sounds like it has grounds… Tencent asked to make a spinoff, got rejected, then made it anyway.
Sony states that during the pitch meeting, Tencent did not disclose it was already working on Light of Motiram. According to the lawsuit, Sony rejected Tencent’s Horizon pitch in April 2024, stating that while it “greatly appreciated Aurora’s level of passion and the effort put into the pitch,” it would not be pursuing the partnership.
When Tencent did announce Light of Motiram in November 2024, Sony states in the lawsuit that its gameplay trailer did not feature any of the “Eastern-inspired clothing, aesthetics, and backdrops that Tencent pitched and instead copied Horizon whole cloth.”
- Comment on Abiotic Factor review - Abiotic Factor is an instant survival classic, and one of the best games I've played in years. 3 weeks ago:
Always keeps you on your toes. System Shock 2 also had monsters able to respawn anywhere, so you were never 100% safe.
- Comment on 13 skeletons 3 weeks ago:
Wish can consequence-free emulate any level 8 or lower spell. So you could get 11 worry-free skeletons, or risk never casting wish again if you need 13.

Lol glad someone else had this thought. I get that people hate reddit here but this post is inane.

Apply liberally. Bought a video game and expected a feature not common in the genre or the developer’s history? Watched a movie but had no idea what the director’s style is? Bought a smartphone and wanted features that brand has never had (or maybe the industry has moved away from)? Bought motion cameras but didn’t realize you couldn’t just watch the clips they record unless you buy their stupid cloud service…
- Comment on SAG-AFTRA approves 2025 Video Game Agreement, officially concluding its strike 5 weeks ago:
The new contract ensures “safety guardrails” around AI, which includes “consent and disclosure requirements for AI digital replica use and the ability for performers to suspend consent for the generation of new material during a strike”.
Great to see. Now we’ll see if this actually ends all of the voice actor strikes in the industry. I know there were a bunch that started due to this strike but actually hinge on the company’s stance on allowing non-union members to remain non-union.
