Oof I never read that. Well that’s disappointing.

It’s good to see clips from Loops as the Fediverse is trying to get this competitor to TikTok and whatever the other competitors from Facebook and YouTube are called.
The short clip summarises the About page of GOG. www.gog.com/about_gog
Cool to spread awareness for people that are on those platforms and enjoy swiping through short videos. But here? Nah we’re okay. Plus I speculate the majority on Lemmy knows the value of GOG compared to more public places like Reddit.

Love Tales of Berseria. Velvet’s English voice actress excellently communicated such complex emotions ranging from anger, compassion, grief, and peace. Probably time for another replay!

Kellog also married, never had sex with his wife or consummated their marriage, and the pair adopted like 30 kids or something like that.
So clearly, corn flakes works. But ideally, corn starch is the way to keep those urges down.
Keep them down, dude. “Conceal, don’t feel” as Elsa from Frozen would say (and seriously, do not feel because that specifically strengthens urges).
- Comment on corn starch recommend 1 month ago:
Careful mate. Thick water is fine. But thicc water sounds like urge avoision. Better add more corn starch homie.

- Comment on your mom falls significantly faster than g 1 month ago:
There’s too many words in this meme that’s making me dizzy from all your fancy science leechcraft, wizard.
I reject your reality and substitute my own: the feather falls faster. It’s more streamlined than the bowling ball, and thus it slips through the vacuum much faster and does hit the ground and stay on the ground, I think. The ball will bounce at least once, maybe even three times. On each bounce, parts of it probably break off, which change the weight. Thankfully those broken pieces won’t hurt anyone because they’re sucked up by the vacuum. Thus, rendering your dungeon wizard spells ineffective against me.
- Comment on Random Screenshots of my Games #21 - Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice 2 months ago:
So the camera is third person, but you of course experience the game through the eyes of Senua! You feel her courage, her fear, and her strength and grit as she pushes forward to solve her problem (no spoilers here).
While you play as Senua, you also get to hear Senua’s voices. Lots of voices, and it is an eerie and tough experience to get through. They will uplift you, praise you, beat you down, scare you, make you feel rotten. And it’s absolutely best to play this game with headphones - trust me.
I can’t praise this game enough. For me, it was about an 8.5/10. I only had a few nitpicks with gameplay, but the story beats, heartrending story, wonderful voice and motion-capture acting, musical score, art direction, etc is such an experience.
- Comment on Random Screenshots of my Games #21 - Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice 2 months ago:
One of my favorite gaming experiences. For anyone reading this, it’s a must play. It’s not the greatest game of all time, but the audio experience combined with the heartrending story make an emotional package.
- Comment on Why isnt there an aftermarket way to bulk up pinch welds jack points on cars 2 months ago:
I drive a hot hatch and purchased aftermarket jacking rails for it. The rails are two long pieces of steel that I bolted underneath the car to distribute weight. I can jack the car up from anywhere along those rails.
Alternatively there are also jack pads you can buy for pinch welds. It’s just a block that you set on top of your jack. As you raise it to the point of the pinch welds, the jack pads surrounds it and helps distribute weight and support the car better.

There it is! The Legend! Thank you for sharing this, it made me laugh so hard back in the day!
- Comment on Two more monkeys jumping on the couch... 2 months ago:
This occurred somewhere in mid 2000-2010 I can’t remember. Tom Cruise was promoting his movie Mission Impossible 3 and was also dating Katie Holmes at the time. I don’t remember the interview much, but he was so excited and in love with her that he was jumping on the couch in excitement and exhibiting this weird energy. At one point he even grabbed Oprah’s hands and was shaking her too in the excitement for his love. I only remember that part vividly because there was a popular animated GIF back in the day where someone edited it so it looked like he was shocking her with Sith lightning, like how Palpatine shocked Mace Windu.

- Comment on Has anyone here ever bought games on eneba? 2 months ago:
Don’t buy from them. They don’t seem vetted.
Here are alternative known good sellers that also offer great discounts:
- Humble Bundle
- Green Man Gaming
- Fanatical
- Game Billet
There are others that are legitimate.
Avoid places like the site you listed, and also these ones especially:
- G2A
- Kinguin
If you buy from Eneba, G2A, Kinguin, etc. you may be fine. However, there’s risk that you may not be fine and have a key that was purchased via a scam or stolen credit card. Then that game which is linked to you can be deactivated from your Steam account, possible Steam account ban, etc. Don’t buy from them because you just don’t know where that key may have come from.

- Comment on 2 months ago:
I love using CRT shaders on a game by game basis. As others commented, if it’s more detailed artwork, I’ll flip it on. Other times I don’t like how it looks with some classic games.
The only mod I do want is a way to replicate, on a modern monitor, the feeling of turning it off and putting your arm against the screen to get that sweet sweet static discharge that only CRTs could give you.
…C-can we leverage AI and the blockchain to do this for us?

Good point. Perhaps we also put up a cautionary sign that reads, “Warning: Crushed glass below. Do not dig. No corpses buried at this site.”

- Comment on Star Wars: Outlaws being a "AAAA Game" for 3 minutes 3 months ago:
I’ve had no excitement for this game since Ubisoft is such a disappointment of mediocrity. I grew bitter to them back when they announced the controversial shutting down of their legacy activation servers: this would prevent gamers from passing the online checks to play their games. Suddenly, despite me possessing a physical disc of Splinter Cell Blacklist on Wii U, I learned I would lose access to the DLC I paid for and “owned”. Certain missions would also become unplayable since you need online co-op. Ubisoft backpedaled after significant backlash from gamers, but since then I hesitate whenever I see them attached to any project.
I miss old Ubisoft. I’m playing Beyond Good & Evil 2003 on my GameCube for the first time, and this game is spectacular! Wish Ubisoft didn’t become evil, but it was inevitable.
- Comment on When the streamer says their favourite pokemon is Pikachu... 3 months ago:
Same dude. My love for Ash’s Pikachu was cemented when, as a kid, I watched Pikachu tank a lightning bolt and save Ash from a swarm of Spearow. Such a great episode and a memory that kid me will never forget, an invaluable lesson about friendship and love.
That episode made me beg my parents for Pokémon Red. Ha, and Pocket Pikachu now that I think about it - the Pokémon Tamagatchi.
