- Comment on What are some old games that are hard to revisit, because a more modern and superior version exists? 2 days ago:
I managed to play and enjoy Oblivion after Skyrim, but found a brick wall when trying Morrowind.
- Comment on What are some old games that are hard to revisit, because a more modern and superior version exists? 2 days ago:
This will be controversial but Hitman blood money.
I have put hundreds of hours into the Hitman trilogy, but no matter what I can’t get past the first guard of blood money, that is if I can get past the clunkynes to even get to him in the first place.
I would like to try it as I have heard a lot of good about it, big portion of the fan base think it is the best game ever, but no matter how many time I trow that god dame coin the guard refuses to move and I can’t progress and that combined with general age and clunkynes of the controls don’t make it an enjoyable experience to try.
In the trilogy and Absultion if I got stuck it was at least enjoyable trying to get around it, this is just frustrating.
- Comment on GeoGuessr is making its way to Steam next month after almost 12 years of sticking it out as a browser game 3 days ago:
From what I remember the subscription was added because Google raised the price of the API.
- Comment on What are some slow acting poisons? 6 days ago:
That or just do the classic ones of arsenic or cyanide and just roll with it.
- Comment on GOG's billboard in Times Square, NYC 4 weeks ago:
It’s a bit like a concrete vs random noise.
If you had to listen to a random rock song on high volume at random times in your videos, and having 100 of different songs screaming at you when you go about your day. You would find that annoying and disorderd.
On the other hand if you went to a rock concert or festival you would be fine with it and even expect that to happen.
I view this similar. Time Square and Piccalilli Circus are just festival grounds for adds.
- Comment on Are mods usually confusing as hell or am I just an idiot? 1 month ago:
It also depends where you get the mod from as different sites offers different amount of help. On some sites you need to download, un zip, drag and drop files in different places and change files both in the mod and outside it, and other sites you just press a button and your good to go. Even when it is the same or similar mods.
- Comment on Why do people indoors at public places always listen to their phone at full volume? 1 month ago:
That I might have some insight into. In our car the speakers are quite wierd in that you can have the volume not even halfway and just so you can hear the person talk clearly, but outside the car you hear it so much better and louder. If you have never been outside your car when someone is taking on the phone you will never know about it, because from the inside you wouldn’t suspect it being so audible outside.
- Comment on Help me out: which looks better for the Duck - the neck tie or the bow tie? 2 months ago:
The bow tie looks like a duck I would carry around and love, the neck tue looks like a duck you punch in the face. That might also have to do with the angle and eye, but the bow tie makes it look better and more loving.
- Comment on Who benefits from the "14 Min Read" estimates popping everywhere? 2 months ago:
I never thought about it being useful for blind people, but it makes perfect sense it’s just like the timer on videos and audio books. Do you have time for an hour of content or do you just have 15 minutes to spend listening. It very useful to know how long it will take before jumping in, or at least in the ballpark of how long.
- Comment on Why is it considered sexist to ask women to smile? 2 months ago:
It’s the same as when people on Reddit act superior and different, because they don’t have their real names on the account compared to Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, ext.
You know the “It’s not the same social media, we are different” that is popular both here and there and most other places to be honest.
- Comment on what was the last game you played in 2024? 2 months ago:
Animal Crossing New Horizons. Celebrating New Year on the island are part of our new year tradition.
- Comment on Why isn't apple a popular ice cream flavor? 5 months ago:
As I have lost the only vegan cheese dip in existence (in my country at least) do to that, I can totally believe it.
I’m still sad about the cheese, it was perfect for tacos and all things melted cheese.
- Comment on Do people actually starve themselves to play games like World of Warcraft? 6 months ago:
As I have seen similar statements about purely singel player games, it wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest to hear it about an MMO. Were there dose exist a minuscule level of reason being it, not good reason but there is still some reason in it. With the singel player games there is no reason what so ever.
- Comment on Is this normal for girls or just a extreme edge case? (Serious question) 7 months ago:
They do have seeds but very very tiny ones.

Intresting, I have never seen a cucumber look like that. Closest are some types frown in home gardens but not even those have been that bumpy.
Here they look kind like this Image
So completely smooth and with around the same circumference as the bigger part of most carrots.
- Comment on Is this normal for girls or just a extreme edge case? (Serious question) 7 months ago:
How dose cucumbers look where you live? Mostly the ones bought from the store.
- Comment on Why is homebrewing so middle-class, straight, white, male? 8 months ago:
If it makes you feel better, I first thought we where talking about moding game consoles and rom hacking. This made me seriously confused about the apparent physical stores.
- Comment on Unsolvable epic store captcha 8 months ago:
Is it one of those click all pictures that contains a buss/bicycle ones. Because I have noticed that some of them after you have clicked all the relevant pictures will give you more pictures to click but there sometimes is a significant wait before the pictures refresh into the new ones, with no indication that there will be more pictures and if you press compleat before the new pictures load it will fail you.
- Comment on Why is Horizon: An American Saga flopping in theaters? 8 months ago:
And this isn’t even mentioning being stuck in an expensive theatre for 3 hours, that the show in its full is perfectly bingeable over a weekend and that there is a high likelihood that it might get cancelled midway through, which will really sting with a 4 episode mini series.
- Comment on Did the premise of an entity approaching you only when it's not being viewed originate with Doctor Who's Weeping Angels? 10 months ago:
From what I remember they didn’t intend for Watson to behave that way, they just forgot to add the animations to him.

Just remember to set task manager to always on top before, I have tried this with some programs only to have task manager get stuck underneath the problem window.

There are a lot of games like this, Headliner comes to mind for me.
- Comment on Why do people hate TV shows like The Biggest Loser and My 600-lb Life? 11 months ago:
Then let’s hope the re-boot is just as good.
- Comment on Why do people hate TV shows like The Biggest Loser and My 600-lb Life? 1 year ago:
Connections was only like 20 years before my time, so not really.
I did however see that they made some form of re boot last year, so I will try to check that out it sounds fun.
- Comment on Why do people hate TV shows like The Biggest Loser and My 600-lb Life? 1 year ago:
I was SO surprised to find that out about TLC. I have only ever associated them with shows like say yes to the dress, cake boss and toddlers and tiaras.
- Comment on Family Group Games 1 year ago:
That wasn’t a multiplayer game lest I checked.
- Comment on What's your favorite game that you will NEVER finish? 1 year ago:
I kind of agree with you, to be honest.
Instead of putting this two things together and half assing them both, we could have had a more Fallouty Fallout 4 and a spin-off like Fallout: The Minutemen Story where you work in a Minutemen like faction somewhere to get it establish and working. With a much more settlement focused gameplay and with the big baddies being some raider factions, you have to deal with in different ways.
- Comment on What's your favorite game that you will NEVER finish? 1 year ago:
Fallout 4 I have around 450 hours in it, and like 10 are in character creation and 400 are in settlement building.
I have not meet the Institute, I have had two run in with the Railroad, I have defended Far Harbor when you first arrive, I have meet Virgil ones and I have never been on board the Prydwen. I did get to some big fight in the Automatron DLC after you build the brain bot, but I have now idea if it was the last or not.
But I absolutely love the game to bits and can roll play in it for hours.
- Comment on Removed from sale: Peter Molyneux's Godus and Godus Wars, never finished 1 year ago:
I remember loving it when it came out for mobile and really liking the updates for a while. Then I didn’t play it for some time as I had done most stuff and when I came back it had had some big update that completely changed it and I really didn’t like it.
- Comment on was my account purged/kicked out/muted? 1 year ago:
I have done that more than ones myself, I have also accidentally blocked people when I wanted to block a community. Glad it was an easy fix.
