Even then I am not sure, if it can keep up the wonder and horror. It will work only so many times.

I would love to experience the sequel like I did the original, but not sure if it is repeatable.

At least something.

I saw it a bit later after the post. But it is a bit of a stretch tbh.

It’s the loss meme somehow.
- Comment on Which Mortal Kombat games across the years should I start with? 7 months ago:
I thought Mortal Kombat 1 was a good introduction to the series for me. The cinematic story is a banger in the first 2 thirds, and the final part is weak, but doesn’t break its neck.
And for quite some hours I had a lot of fun just playing it. However the gameplay will not hold up past the 2 week honeymoon phase, with all the bugs, pricing, always online and truly awful invasion mode, which is the core single player experience next to the story.
So it depends what you expect of it, other fighting games are just better in many aspects.
- Comment on Is it normal to forget things from the previous day often? 7 months ago:
Unfortunately it could be so many things. First off is to consider overthinking a little bit, if you feel your memory performance otherwise is acceptable most of the time. As the reason for why this happens it could be a great many things. Clean up your sleep schedule and quality first. Then maybe check and work on the diet. Vitamin deficiencies can cause all kinds of subtle trouble. Next the obligatory exercise disclaimer as it will improve functioning. It can be frustrating to deal with the human body as many things aren’t as clear cut.

- Comment on Square Enix’s president says it will be ‘aggressive in applying’ AI 10 months ago:
Which is also what the last CEO of Square Enix rode on. This is either investor appeasement or indeed improvement of quality with these tools or, and far more likely both buzzwords and producing crap to cut costs.
- Comment on The track listing is written out of order on this compilation of a band's entire discography 10 months ago:
Also check torrents for “remastered” albums of bigger bands. Sometimes it is a miracle what they achieve with editing the same files, but with good audio knowledge and repair bad mixing.
- Comment on Has google stopped working for finding anything? 10 months ago:
You really need to add Discord to this list as it is soaking up gigantic amounts of information about video games as a forum replacement. One could argue for actual community games like MMO’s it is perhaps slightly different, but for the majority it is a huge problem.
- Comment on What's up with Epic Games? 10 months ago:
Your points are very valid and it was a terrible thing for Epic to do, but they backpedaled on that and have never done the removing a product from Steam afterwards ever again.
- Comment on What's up with Epic Games? 10 months ago:
Your post and further explanations are excellent. Don’t let the down vote fool from people with parasocial bonding to their game launcher fool you. Valve introduced account bound DRM, unregulated lootbox gambling, skin gambling and for the better part of a decade their UI was crap, there were no user reviews etc.
- Comment on What's up with Epic Games? 10 months ago:
-
Epic Games paid big money to make some games platform exclusive.
-
Their launcher is, just like Origin and Ubisoft’s one, features wise vastly inferior to Steam.
-
Smaller indie level multiplayer games do not have crossplatform play with Steam, or other issues like DNF duel breaking player room ping indicators.
None of these explain the amount of frequency of anemosity towards Epic for their store. It seems some are in a parasocial relationship with their Steam launcher. A bit like console fanboy wars. And for some reason they prefer a monopoly without alternatives than one with alternatives. Perhaps some see the installation of another program as an intrusion to to their private comfort. Not rationally like Microsoft’s ill willed
spyingtelemetry, but emotionally led. I encountered a few people who just don’t want to install new programs and perhaps see Epic a threat to their habits.But I dislike them for dropping Unreal Tournament.

- Comment on What the actual f*** is this Rockstar? 11 months ago:
I feel your pain. I have rare disorders which affect my executive functioning, so simple tasks are insurmountable at times for me while my intellectual ability is unaffected and likely above average. Which leads to two things: I rarely get help making appointments and what to do and just “do it yourself” without guidance and get kicked out. And the other one is that I could not be possibly correct interpreting the test results, because how could I have the ability without being an official researcher to research things. I am deeply frustrated, the more tests I run and see my thesis is correct, the more push back by doctors it is more likely to have randomly a dozen conditions instead of a single one uniting them. Welcome to Ehlers Danlos.

These things are ableist. We are reaching the point where AI can solve these much more reliably than a human. As a result the difficulty has to rise and will exclude more and more people which might have problems with “basic” tasks from a neurotypical perspective. Not to speak sometimes there might be multiple solutions depending on language and cultural interpretations.

Terrible approach to see hundreds of thousand of children as unsalvagable human garbage, because they come from a difficult environment to say the least.
- Comment on And now Bezos is trying to inserts ads everywhere 1 year ago:
WoW and other MMOs are not just games with slapped on subscription costs. It is a very specific subtype of games which have much higher maintenance cost than an arena shooter. There is a reason these games get shutdown when certain financial thresholds get passed beyond let’s do something more profitable.

Tour de France sends the message performance is everything, and if you don’t perform, destroy your body with drugs. It is inherently toxic.

Why do you think 13 gear cassettes are a thing? The chain has to be thinner and everything is much more precise. Add to that mechanical load and it is much worse for every casual rider in reliability than the older 2x9, 3x9 systems.
