maybe I wasn’t clear enough, OP thinks that this is brag-worthy, not me

Be it creating manga, having tabletop game companions, or recommendations for baking recipes, I want everyone to have a better life from collaborating with AI.
We used to did all the above together with other human beings. Sounds to me that you just want to replace them with machines. Well, good luck. You’ll never find true happiness down this path, in my opinion.

I kinda expected that… same thing with the steamdeck, only way to get one is to go through a scalper
- Comment on Lastest Riot Vanguard Update Can Brick Your Hardware (If You're a Cheater) 4 months ago:
This should spook the hell of anyone still playing anything that relies on that. Imagine have that kind of malware running in your system, with kernel-level priviledges, that could simply fuck up your hardware if it thinks you might be cheating.
- Comment on What is a game you can’t understand why its so popular ? 4 months ago:
Not a fan of FPS. I have played my fair share of them when I was a teenager since it’s all my friends would play, but today I simply can’t stand any of them anymore

- Comment on Hot Take: most modern games are designed to purely kill time 6 months ago:
No, very sporadically, then the nostalgia hits me hard enough. I was just ponting that maybe your nostalgia is kinda skewing your viewpoint too.
- Comment on Hot Take: most modern games are designed to purely kill time 6 months ago:
Games use to made with world building in mind. Characters , stories arcs maybe in some cases a message to share.
My first videogame console was an Atari 2600, there wasn’t even a single thing of your list in any game there

- Comment on Ubisoft initiates colossal restructure to become a more 'gamer-centric' company 8 months ago:
The publisher is restructuring around five ‘creative houses’ by implementing cost-cutting, project cancellations, and a return-to-office mandate.
“We’ll become gamer-centric by fucking our employees even more”
- Comment on Ubisoft target audience when they play a good game 8 months ago:
Just like with watershed TV/movie/music, it seems quaint and overhyped as their innovations become the norm.
There is even a trope that describes that
- Comment on Ubisoft target audience when they play a good game 8 months ago:
If you launch the game outside steam the time isn’t accounted. I know this because I love playing Timespinner with a randomizer. Inside steam I have 40h of played time. If the timer counted my randomizer sessions I’d have at least 4x that
- Comment on Ars Technica’s Top 20 video games of 2025 9 months ago:
well, TIL. I thought it was more recent than that. Their quality has been steadily decreasing for quite some time, and I always blamed that acquisition.
- Comment on Ars Technica’s Top 20 video games of 2025 9 months ago:
They used to be good but have greatly enshittified since being acquired by Condé Nast. I’ve been an Ars reader for almost 15 years, until last year. I don’t even bother going there anymore.
- Comment on Ars Technica’s Top 20 video games of 2025 9 months ago:
since they’ve been acquired by Condé Nast, Ars has been almost thoroughly enshittified, this list (and almost everything else they publish nowadays) was created to appease their corporate overlords.

I feel you, I’m in the same boat
it would be cool if there was something like the Game Boy Magnifier for those modern systems
- Comment on 10 months ago:
How often do people leave reviews?
Speaking only for myself, I only leave a review if I loved or I hated a game. A “meh” game doesn’t get a review. I’d hazard that many people do something similar.
- Comment on If you want to get into handheld gaming, but don't want to spend a lot, buy one of these. 10 months ago:
I kinda agree with you. I don’t use retro achievements because I’m an obsessed completionist. That means that I’d keep playing one game well beyond the point it stopped being fun just to tick all those boxes.

- Comment on What is your favorite Metroidvania? 10 months ago:
It’s an fantastic game, as other have already told you. But I’d like to add that there’s a randomizer for it and this basically adds almost infinite replay value (at least for me!)

It’s a little old and more Metroid- than -vania: A Robot Named Fight
