I don’t blame them. Not everything needs to be a freakin’ multiplayer game.

I use a VPN at all times, because I want to, and I have now learned to not Google anything as it takes me to these CAPTCHAs that I refuse to do. Bing may be crappy too, but at least it doesn’t block me from a simple search. There is no reason, in my opinion, to block a VPN from SEARCHING something. Disgusting.

Don’t be like me and buy this on sale, everyone!
I have never looked at “incorporates third party” part of the Steam page and have now paid for it.
Until they learn that the consumers chose Steam, because they like Steam, and stop trying to incorporate their third party BULLSHIT, just pirate the game and enjoy the best damn Sci-fi opera I’ve ever had the pleasure of playing.
(ME3 still doesn’t sit well with me, but oh well)

Well, I’ll tell you that I tried all the weapons in the game even with the stupid durability mechanic turned off. Each weapon has its own advantages. So, with durability turned off, I had the master sword for all the mobs I didn’t feel like dealing with as I was exploring. I had a fire sword to use for tactics or to light stuff on fire/cook. A ice wand because I liked the tactical advantage, and the same can be said for the thunder wand.
After that, every other weapon in the game was a reskin of other weapons. There was no point to them other than to have them there because of the stupid mechanic. Your rusted sword swings the exact same way as the master sword. It’s just a pin in the ass to use. Wow. That is just so fun.
But in all seriousness, it’s just not a good mechanic to have in a video game that is not trying to be a realistic video game.

Hello. I played the games on PC too, and turned off the stupid weapon degradation and had a BLAST playing through and exploring the game after the fact. So, no. Some of us just thought the durability thing was a waste of resources, and could’ve made the game much more digestible to those who think it is absolutely dog shit to even be included in a ZELDA title.
- Comment on Anon encounters a Switch owner 6 months ago:
Yeah. Weapon degradation in a video game that isn’t trying to go for a realism vibe is absolutely fucking garbage. You’ve got arrows that light on fire, turn to ice, or have lighting as soon as you pull them out of the quiver, but yeah. Totally makes sense that my Master Sword needs a lil sleepy time to become usable again. Just fucking garbage.

Hey, Kadu! It’s so good to see you again! I have been using the yuzu zip you sent me, and have been playing the hell out of some of my games. I just wanted to say thank you so freaking much, from the bottom of my heart! 🙏
- Comment on The Fallout Bible: a collection of lore documents compiled for use in the development of the original (cancelled) Fallout 3 6 months ago:
To give you something else to think about for Fallout 1, 2, and tactics, there were also not very many people who could afford computers at the time of their releases.
I wouldn’t attribute the games being any less good than the newer games just because they didn’t sell as much as those newer games.
Fallout 3 and New Vegas was on PC, Xbox 360, and PS3. That’s also around the time the tech became much more available to the broader audiences. More people than ever had gaming consoles, and gaming PCs.
Fallout New Vegas has a lot of the charm of the older games, especially the wackiness that many love. Fallout 3 was (in my opinion) a much more focused game, in that it focused on the main story and kept most of the wackiness to a minimum compared to the originals and New Vegas.
I see what you’re saying, but if the originals did not exist, neither would the newer games. We shouldn’t shit on the classics, because without those classics, we wouldn’t have the show to even begin with.

Plenty of people remember and adore the first two games, and even tactics. Bethesda’s version of Fallout is great, and so are the originals. Get over yourself.

And if you are not the most tech savvy, read through the options to make sure it is what you need removed. Removing everything might break some things, because M$.
I can safely say that removing the telemetry is absolutely essential. Remove it from Firefox, and (ew) Chrome (ew, ew) alongside Windows telemetry because fuck that shit.
- Comment on Windows 10 is the last version of Windows 6 months ago:
“Features” lmfao!
In all seriousness, remove actual beneficial features? No. Remove the shit that people have been complaining about for ages? Yes, but I guess we are all in on losing people eventually.

- Comment on RuneScape creator unveils new MMO after 10 years of development: 'At times it has felt like an insurmountably ambitious task' 7 months ago:
RuneScape to me is about having an easy enough game that you always have something to do on.
I’ve got a few 99s, but I still have plenty of others to do, and if I don’t want to do skilling, I can go do some of the plethora of quests I haven’t done yet. If I don’t want to do either of those, I can go find quite a lot of different things to do ranging from very easy to very difficult.
I’m sure most people stick around for the grind, but for me, it was always because there was SOMETHING for you to do. :)

Shit, if that’s the case, I would rather Stardew or No Man’s get it because THOSE games actually added and improved the whole game with each update!
And this is coming from someone who was able to play Cyberpunk at launch with minimal bugs and actually enjoyed it and still do!

Red Dead Redemption 2, Chapter 2.
Galloping around, taking in the hazy morning with a cup of coffee at a makeshift camp, the ambient music and noises as your travel. It gives me such wanderlust.
