- Comment on Slay The Spire 2 Getting Review-Bombed Again After Latest Update 12 hours ago:
People review bomb games that add or take away things that didn’t even affect gameplay in the slightest.
For Lunacid, there was an update that allowed you to choose your character’s pronouns when you started a game; this has literally nothing to do with how you play the game, how NPCs interact with you, or literally anything other than just some flavor text. If you go into the steam forums and read reviews for the game you’ll see so many idiots harping on and on about how the game “used to be” great until they added pronouns, and now it’s literally unplayable.
- Comment on Hot Take: most modern games are designed to purely kill time 3 days ago:
You could also take it a step further and say “all games are just tech demos”
Like all they exist to do is proof-of-concept type stuff showing off what people can do, instead of making a piece of entertainment for the people.

You should definitely watch the General Sam videos of Kenshi. He makes it fun but also doesn’t hide how much of a bitch this game can be. He’s also probably why I got pulled into the game so hard.

I’m the exact opposite, in a different, but similar way that the other commenter is.
I will fall asleep trying to play almost any turn-based/tactical RPG you give me. It’s just too slow for me, and I can’t focus on stats or stacking effects that much. That’s why I like real-time action games. I’ve been playing the hell out of Fallout 4 lately and that is probably the fastest-paced game out of the entire series. There’s snappy gunplay in first- and third-person with a dedicated bash/grenade button, and you can pop out from behind cover when you aim. Also the whole customizing and modification system with the workshop and settlements.

Isn’t Binding of Isaac by the guy(s) that did Castle Crashers, which got their start on Newgrounds?
I haven’t played Isaac, but I’ve played enough Castle Crashers to know that it’s pretty gorey/scatty with all the weird poop “jokes” and whatnot.
I feel the same way about CC as you do about Isaac. It’s fun to play, but some of the themes either haven’t aged well or were already for a particular audience.

Kenshi Scrolls, Kenshi/Fallout, Kenshi Wars, Kenshi Effect, Halo: Kenshi, Kenshilands, Kenshi-Life…
There are so many awesome settings you could make a Kenshi game in.

I would probably damn near never leave the house if that game were to exist.

Sometimes I wish I had that dedication.
- Comment on State of Decay 3 lead says the game only existed in a Word document when its reveal trailer dropped 6 years ago: "We're not doing zombie animals" 1 week ago:
I want to like State of Decay, and I do for the most part.
But imo it just feels like “Not-Project Zomboid” if that makes sense. Like it’s almost on par with PZ, but not really. So whenever I play it, I just wanna play Zomboid instead.

- Comment on "The Old Oak Lodge" (Enshrouded) 2 weeks ago:
Even with the world settings jacked all the way up it takes a stupid long time to mine just about anything other than stone or dirt, even with a top tier pickaxe and the requisite perks. And I will say exploration is a little iffy too, especially in the desert with all the verticality.
I broke down and started visiting a multiplayer server where it’s basically just a big store full of everything currently in the game so I could just take what I needed/wanted.
- Comment on "Any update is a bonus not a right": Peak co-developer Landfall reminds impatient fans it's not a live-service studio 2 weeks ago:
I remember when Oblivion came out and everyone found all the glitches and exploits, like the vampirism quest not finishing properly with Count Skingrad so you could just ask him to pay you over and over.
I also remember thinking it was a big deal anytime a developer sent out a patch for their game(s) around that same time. Like, damn you already made the game and now you’re doing more stuff to it?
Anyway I guess my point is people are impatient as fuck nowadays thanks to the internet.
- Comment on Steam lawsuits in a nutshell 2 weeks ago:
I bought Valhalla on Uplay (or whatever it’s called now) back when it came out… And I spent 150 hours playing through it…
Tbh it was probably the most boring AC game I’ve ever played. It actually made me stop playing them at all because it just dragged on so goddamn long.
- Comment on Anyone else looking forward to the new Starfield dlc and update? 2 weeks ago:
I wish it ran well on my 6-year-old PC. I want to get back into it and actually give it a real try. Also I want to play with some Star Wars mods.
- Comment on "The Old Oak Lodge" (Enshrouded) 2 weeks ago:
It is gorgeous, but imo no game comes close to the immersion you get when playing a Bethesda game.
There’s no other game in history where you can walk into some random dude’s house, steal everything that isn’t nailed down (including useless plates and silverware), and sit on any of the furniture.

Take every news headline with a grain of salt today, folks.
- Comment on How long until the rise of games with mods turns into user created games. 2 weeks ago:
In fact Morrowind (arguably Bethesda’s best game) is still getting mods made for it over 24 years later. It’s biggest mod, Project Tamriel/Tamriel Rebuilt, is still getting made and worked on, and just had a major update last April.
- Comment on How long until the rise of games with mods turns into user created games. 2 weeks ago:
It’s been happening for years, almost decades at this point. In fact, I’d be willing to say that at least 50% of most games ever made were made by someone who used to mod other games for fun.

I like that Dunkey’s running joke is if it has some cave you need to squeeze into then that’s how you know it’s a AAA game

Meh.
It’s a good game, and imo still holds up decently well. This is just a cash grab.

People just think it’s “dreaming but awake” or just a hallucination.
To be fair, I’ve never experienced it nor do I have any desire to. That’s just the sentiments I’ve gotten over the years.

Yeah, seems about right for some of the purists out there. There’s a whole fucking subreddit dedicated to talking shit about them. It’s honestly sad.
Like it’s one thing to have a semi-parasocial relationship and call it “hanging out with your friends” but it’s another entirely to dedicate time out of your life to get upset and angry over a goddamn YouTube channel.

I actually forgot that Game Grumps only play the newest of the new when it’s from a particular series or something.
Why did they get in trouble? Was it with Nintendo or the fans? I kinda remember some “controversy” over them using emulators instead of original hardware, but imo that’s bullshit. Sometimes old hardware isn’t better, and all kinds of things can go wrong with it.
