Even if it says “licence” or whatever then I’d still not be fine with it not being permanent. The language isn’t the problem

- Comment on Can anyone help me identify this Xbox controller? 4 weeks ago:
That website was really tempting… until I remembered that these run on AA batteries and don’t have gyro or a touchpad. M$ really selling an 85$ controller without the features of the 50$ ps5 controller

Isn’t this an actual thing? Pretty sure I was told by some instructor not to use references older than a decade or two old. Unless the subject is very elementary older sources are more likely to be obsolete
- Comment on PC Gamer: The top 100 PC games 4 weeks ago:
I see, I don’t consciously think about the map/level design when playing something so my opinion of doom comes from its mechanics and presentation, both of which are lacking in comparison to what indie boomer shooters have today.
find better examples of them (Bioshock
I don’t know if I played it wrong or something but I really didn’t like bioshock 1. It lasted like twice as long as it was fun and as time passed enemies just got spongier. Ammo is super scarce in the beginning and super common at the end. Shooting not very satisfying. The existence of the elemental gun. Bioshock 2 was much better imo
- Comment on PC Gamer: The top 100 PC games 4 weeks ago:
I meant it as “yes why did you ask?”
I don’t have strong feelings about level design. I think the levels I enjoyed the most were in other episodes. If this is about the keys I’m neutral about them, I like exploring everywhere anyways so I’d just collect them on the way. I don’t know what else to say
I feel the same way for smb. It has historical importance but it’s not up to the quality standards of today. I like the digital movement, feels better than the analogue stick in nwerer games

Yes?
- Comment on PC Gamer: The top 100 PC games 4 weeks ago:
Maybe they keep it fresh for people that already like it, but I haven’t seen anyone excited to play doom due to its mods
- Comment on PC Gamer: The top 100 PC games 4 weeks ago:
On the other hand, how is doom even on the list? This isn’t a ‘most influential games’ list. Surely the 10th best game in 2024 isn’t Doom 1993? Their scoring system (Quality 60%, Importance 15%, Hotness 15%, Playability 10%) makes sense to me, but how they assign those scores is baffling.
Take doom and doom eternal for example:
Doom 1993: Q 8.41 - I 9.99 - H 6.81 - P 6.81
Doom eternal: Q 8.00 - 7.45 - H 6.09 - P 8.45How is cardboard enemies, simplest damage mechanics and single axis camera control higher quality than any modern shooter? And in what universe could a 30 year old game be called hot??

- Comment on PS5 Homescreen Now Replaces Unique Video Game Art With Annoying Ads You Can’t Turn Off 1 month ago:
On other news, welcome to my blog adshittification. The blog that uncovers the sinister truth about the ads being shown in your throat! This week’s highlights:
-
Youtube still hasn’t stopped ruining my week by filling up those precious few seconds between opening a video and going fullscreenwith intrusive ads that cover a quarter of your screen, and still even then you can’t stop the wall of ads that show up after the video finishes:
Image Image -
I opened up steam to play some factorio to calm my nerves, but I got greeted by an illegal ad telling me to kill myself:
Image -
So instead I opened library home to play something alse, only to be assaulted by more ads at the top!
Image -
I decided to give up trying to play. Normally I would open reddit next but I haven’t been using it since they put promotions in the post screen:

- Comment on PS5 Homescreen Now Replaces Unique Video Game Art With Annoying Ads You Can’t Turn Off 1 month ago:
It’s upsetting how news outlets can now call anything an ad to generate outrage and people here just eat it up. Something about that word seems to turn people’s brains off and they start commenting misinformation.
This is:
A feature to show you news from the game you’re about to play.
Badly designed since it can’t be turned off and it covers the entire screen.
Prone to abuse for ads.This is not:
An ad.
A money making venture by sony. Unique to playstation. - Comment on Palworld will not change to free to play model, dev claims [VGC] 2 months ago:

- Comment on Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of September 8th 2 months ago:
These are more like last 2 week but anyways:
Finished Agent A after a year of hiatus.
Got hdr to work in Dark Souls 2 with the graphics overhaul mod and finished getting the 4 big Souls. Got tired of the difficulty of Dark Souls 2 and decided to start a new random shooter from my library… Devil Daggers
Tried to figure out which way to go next in Dark Solus 2 by checking the wiki but kept getting sidetracked by things I might’ve missed.
Had a management sim itch and gave another shot at FTL, never got to win. Half the time I lost in a single encounter to things like never landing a shot on the enemy ship due to shields + misses or 7 people teleporting to my ship and wrecking havok. Other times I got too greedy.
Also tried to quench it with shapez, but didn’t like it much. Just made me crave the factorio dlc more. Amazing music though - Comment on Risk of Rain creators Hopoo Games join Valve 2 months ago:

- Comment on Soulslike Enotria: The Last Song delayed indefinitely on Xbox as dev says it's being ignored by Microsoft 2 months ago:
From this march:
Jyamma Games also said it was no longer planning to launch Enotria: The Last Song on Xbox alongside other platforms. This is to ensure “a superior experience for PC and PS5 players,” Jyamma Games CEO Giacomo Greco wrote in a statement on Steam. The exec suggested the studio will reassess an Xbox release once the game has launched elsewhere.

- Comment on Anon has their wisdom teeth removed 2 months ago:
painful and time consuming
When I had one of mine removed it was the quickest dentist visit I had. They exposed the tooth, drilled into it, hit it with a wedge and collected the pieces. It probably took less than 10 minutes including the time for local anesthesia to take effect and didn’t really hurt
