  Unfortunately it is. People fucking suck. Don’t believe me? Go for a walk in a place where litter stands out like a beach or a hiking trail. Or in a supermarket (barely any litter, but items abandoned by shoppers that changed their mind about buying said items)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Red Dead Redemption 2 was amazing.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The looting you can skip with cheats. Technically you can skip a lot of traveling that way as well. But That’s a bit part of the game, imo. If you don’t enjoy spending time in the game, then all you want to do is shoot people? There’s better games for that.

  I thought the beard was the only important part. What does built like a cult leader mean?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Deck / Gaming News #22⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Might be something else. I’m also using boost and there’s no issues here.

  Thanks again for these, fun read as always. Really sucks to hear about the health stuff. Rooting for you to get good news from the specialist!

  Which is why I suggested using cheats to make the game easier.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favourite single-player games without much fluff, grinding or difficulty spikes?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Definitely. Thought I put it there, but guess not.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favourite single-player games without much fluff, grinding or difficulty spikes?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, that’s fair, had forgotten about that. Then again, that’s one of the games where cheats can make it playable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favourite single-player games without much fluff, grinding or difficulty spikes?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, if you’ve enjoyed Skyrim, honestly you can just google “best RPGs of all time” and play any that will show up. I’m gonna go against the grain here and say that Skyrim’s world is beautiful but nothing else is that great about it. Try enderall, fallout London, gothic 1+2 + archolos, mass effect 1-3, disco Elysium, Witcher 1-3, Baldur’s Gate 1-3, Neverwinter nights 1+2, dragon age origins, fallout new Vegas, pillars of eternity1+2, Kotor 1+2, south park stick of truth + fractured butthole, cyberpunk, fable the lost chapters, divinity original sin 1+2, etc.

  If at any point you feel like the combat is too hard or whatever you can use cheats and just enjoy the story. All of these have pretty good ones. At least all of these have less grinding and better story than Pokemon games, in my experience.

  Beyond that, just go for popular, widely acclaimed games such as rdr2, bioshock, whichever doom you want, portal 1+2, etc.

  Okay, good, that wasn’t just me. Had to read it 3 times… anyway, bring it! Loved postal 2, stupid as it may be.

  Omg, they’re onto something. Will you reply no matter what people type?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver - Official Teaser Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, that wouldn’t be enough to differentiate PoE to hzd, imo. It’s like comparing Max Payne to CSGO. Or I dunno… rocket league to Football manager… or Mario party to street figther… trying to cover as many bases here to cover the games that you might be more familiar with. xD. Point is, in both games you get a character which you level up and customize by doing quests and killing mobs, but that’s pretty much where the similarities end, as far as the gameplay, mechanics and goals of fans go.

  And for the record, despite this also being called an arpg, it’ll be very different from both PoE and hzd. ARPG seems to be as vague as “driving game” or “shooter”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver - Official Teaser Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, in this case, I just saw op say that this game was gonna be an arpg and because I play a lot of PoE, last epoch, etc. I was expecting something in that vein. Then I open the link and I see 2 seconds of something that looks more like hades or god of war and I was disappointed. So if me wishing we had better terms for various genres makes me a prescriptivist, I guess I am one, in this case.

  Also tdggrpg is too complicated of a subgenre name, I feel xD

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver - Official Teaser Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  We need more subgenres! What do you call breath of the wild or the spiderman games in that case?

  Imo god of war/ horizon are aptly named because they’re action focused RPGs.

  We need new, better name for the “diablo-like” games, however. I feel like those are different enough that there’s not enough “rpg” left in them beyond the character building elements. Survivorslike aren’t RPGs despite them having character leveling and stuff so why should diablo 4 /Poe be called rpgs?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver - Official Teaser Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  We’ve only seen 2 seconds of gameplay, how can you be sure it’s not a rogue like or something?

  Also, this comment reminded me how ridiculous I find it that we have genres such as “metroidvania” and “souls like”, “auto shooter” , “survivors like” and etc. Yet we can’t come up with subgenre names other than arpg which can describe everything from Bastion, to Horizon Zero down, to path of exile. What’s up with that?

  My claim? You don’t even care who you’re replying to, everyone is wrong and nothing else matters xD

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Happy anniversary of the day absolutely nothing happened at nowhere square!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  People also claim the earth is flat. Your point?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Witcher 4 - Cinematic Trailer | State of Unreal 2025⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Most of the people that appear in Witcher trailers are just random victims or passer-bys.

  This video was split into 2, in the other half we learn that the merchant told ciri that he was transporting salt. And that was a chest full of coins.

  So, not your fault nor some lore that you’re unaware of.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Had a take about Supergiant Games that recieved a lot of pushback fromy teo longest eunning best friends.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  All 4 games are great. And I do enjoy the one and done deal of the first 2. I don’t mind finishing a game in a few hours. If anything, that’s actually a bonus nowadays. Most games I stop halfway and never finish.

  However, if you were to just focus on finishing the main story and consider that enough, I think you could finish Hades just as quickly. So to me Hades is just the same kind of game but with more replayability.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Common British L⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, there’s no “British cuisine” per se, but there are British restaurants. For example a pretty famous and influential one. Also, most pubs serve food and those are now pretty much everywhere in the world, that’s quite British, isn’t it? Dunno the history, but I always associated it with the Brits, maybe I’m wrong.

  Because Lemmy was drunk when he went to bed with the chick and couldn’t consent, obviously!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The kids are ready for it...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Huh, interesting. That’s what the huntsman does to the wolf in little red riding hood, actually. Or well, in the version I’ve heard when I was a kid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The kids are ready for it...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In Romania we have a story about a goat with 3 kids written by a famous author.Source.

  Shortened version: She leaves the kids at home and tells them not to open to door for anyone. Wolf comes, the 2 older kids open the door cause they’re idiots, small one hides. Older kids get eaten and the wolf leaves their heads by the window.

  Mom comes home, young kid tells her what happened and she decides to invite the wolf to a meal. There’s a big hole where she puts hot coals or something and covers it with a bunch of twigs or something and places the table on top.

  Wolf comes, eats and eventually falls in the hole once the hot coals weaken the twigs enough. Goat and kid throw some stuff on the fire to weaken it and then kill the wolf by throwing big rocks at him since he can’t escape the hole.
