- Comment on Former Dragon Age writer says Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Baldur's Gate 3 prove 'what's possible when a game is given time to cook' 1 day ago:
Seriously, I keep trying to get people to get a taste of it, to the point I’ve even gifted it. It’s been fascinating and beautiful and devastating. Haven’t finished it yet, but getting very close and I only regret it’ll have to end soon.
- Comment on Clair Obscur's Composer Talks Going From Unknown To Scoring 2025's Most Celebrated RPG 2 days ago:
The man is an actual genius, I can’t believe how varied the OST is, from operatic, to jazz, etc, every track just works. He is at the same level of genius we all felt about Mick Gordon on his Doom OSTs, and maybe better. I know I’m dealing with recency bias, but this is one of my favorite games of all time already, and probably my #1 for OST.
- Comment on F*ckin Android update on my ZFold5 removed the setting options to independently set the home screen grid and the cover screen grid size. 1 week ago:
I have ever since Nova sold out. Loved that one but I removed that immediately after the news came out. I don’t hate the stock Samsung launcher, but it’s left a lot to be desired.
- Comment on What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games? 3 weeks ago:
Some games really do depend on learned conventions from previous games which can feel a bit unfair to the uninitiated. It’s a double edged sword of avoiding too much tutorializing vs alienating newcomers.
- Comment on V Rising Update 1.1 - Invaders of Oakveil is Out Now! 4 weeks ago:
As much as I’ve been excited about this content update, I didn’t know it required a server reset to get into it. Not sure I have it in me to start over just to see this.
- Comment on Bethesda Gifts Everybody in the Skyblivion Mod Team a Copy of Oblivion Remastered 5 weeks ago:
The most? Nah. Yes they’re fairly friendly to modders, but there’s been other cases of publishers going way out of their way to embrace a modder or mod group. I can think of one right now where a massive localization mod team actually had their work used as the basis of the official Western release of a game.
- Comment on When Nintendo games were affordable 5 weeks ago:
You’re also forgetting maybe the biggest factor: library selection. We used to have a lot of choices, but not literal thousands of choices across all our platforms. If we only had our choice of a few hundred games, $80 might sound more reasonable.
- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 1 month ago:
Cool, thank you. What’s up with the bezel? Flimsy?
- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 1 month ago:
How’ve you/her liked the Framework? Which one did you get? I’ve been considering one for months but I don’t have a huge need but it’d be nice to have a solid laptop rather than my Chromebook that I’m running Arch on when I’m on my couch.
- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 1 month ago:
Made my jump to Arch (btw) a couple of years ago and haven’t really looked back. I have Win10 as a second boot option, but that’s reserved specifically for Game Pass and VR, but it’s very rare I boot it. Don’t care to upgrade even after EOL, and I’d never recommend Arch to anyone but the most comfortable with Linux, but it’s been a great option for me.
- Comment on I had an anonymous Google account I had been using with Grayjay. Today, they decided I must be a bot. 2 months ago:
But are they useful?
- Comment on Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 | Release Date Trailer (April 24) 3 months ago:
This is the way. I’m hyped as hell about this game, but we should not trust any game will be the same as advertised until proven.

- Comment on Day 152 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots 5 months ago:
Never played Emperor’s Tomb, though I think I have it. I’ve played Last Crusade, Fate of Atlantis, and Infernal Machine, but never really kept up with anything after. Do you know how this compares to Infernal Machine? Loved that game but it was brutal and made me question my sanity repeatedly for continuing.
- Comment on My post was removed because it was not political? 5 months ago:
Deal and agreed.
- Comment on My post was removed because it was not political? 5 months ago:
If you’re wrong, would you be politically incorrect?
- Comment on Thief has a new spiritual sequel, built by the Deus Ex and System Shock devs 5 months ago:
Yep, hard pass. I’ll occasionally play a co-op game here and there with friends, but as soon as you add pvp, especially if required, I’m out without regret and nothing will bring me back.
- Comment on Is Kickstarter Still Viable for Video Games? 5 months ago:
Yeah I also backed System Shock and it took so damn long. Was happy it finally released, but the experience like that gives me pause about other projects. Project Phoenix is another example of one that went on for years and then ultimately fizzled out with zero product.
- Comment on Everyone talking about the Indiana Jones game lately, so I gave in and bought it. It's a 10/10 recommendation from me! 5 months ago:
Still love this one. Have watched a couple LPs of it in the past couple years too just to relive that first experience again.
- Comment on New Xhitter policy just dropped 6 months ago:
I’m about 80% sure the point of the reply was that you didn’t use a comma. “Bluesky people” vs “Bluesky, people” means two different things.
- Comment on Half-Life 2 is currently 100% for its 20th anniversary 6 months ago:
Oh hell, mine too back in August. Guess I’ll have to take it out drinking next year.

Yeah I heard something like that too, but I never heard of any success.
- Comment on Day 87 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots 7 months ago:
Every time I see a post about Spore, I get sad I never played Dark Spore (despite owning it) before it got shut down.
- Comment on Day 69 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots 8 months ago:
Some day I need to actually give this a go beyond what I played originally. I haven’t played this since the alpha days forever ago, and it looked like it had a lot of potential, but I didn’t have the patience. I think I helped fund it through their own site to play the super early build and then got the steam key from that when it released a long time after.

I know, how dare they?! Wait, am I allowed to respond in agreement with you???
- Comment on [deleted] 8 months ago:
Yeah I quit WoW in 2009 and never went back, which would have been 15 years ago now, and lines up with what the OP was saying for timeline. I remember all the coming class changes that would homogenize things drastically, and already being rather annoyed with how things already were, I dipped without a regret, other than losing touch with friends from there. I’m only in contact with a few of them at this point and that’s a little sad, but we all move on eventually.

A friend begged me to play this and I just didn’t for a couple years despite owning it. Once I finally did it quickly became an all-time favorite. You should fix this yourself.

I demand the goat puzzle be left intact for a new generation of gamers to become infuriated.

Big “QUIT HAVING FUN” energy.
