I’m surprised no one is talking about the US midterm elections. I have to hope that we can actually turn this fascism around. God, please let us turn this fascism around…

God, I love being able to block people on Lemmy. Please block me too. Let’s never see each other again.
- Comment on Crimson Moon - Announce Trailer | PS5 Games 5 days ago:
LOL, yeah person that got a college degree in making video games doesn’t understand basic terms used to describe how gameplay feels. Sure, bud.
I’m not invalidating how you feel about Lords of the Fallen or FromSoft games. I’m literally just stating (for some reason, repeatedly) that people feel differently about different things. I couldn’t give a flying fuck what games you enjoy, nor should you give a flying fuck about what games I enjoy. Just because we enjoy games at the other person does not doesn’t mean that the other person enjoys shit games.
- Comment on Crimson Moon - Announce Trailer | PS5 Games 5 days ago:
Saying opinions are facts doesn’t make them so, just because they’re your opinions. I guess you had a skill issue with the original Lords of the Fallen, huh?
- Comment on Crimson Moon - Announce Trailer | PS5 Games 5 days ago:
I disagree. I played it all the way through, yet I never managed to play any of the Fromsoft games more than maybe 10 minutes because I feel that they are too clunky.
- Comment on Crimson Moon - Announce Trailer | PS5 Games 5 days ago:
I’ll take the original Lords of the Fallen over the new one or any of the Dark Souls games any day. People have different tastes.
- Comment on Horizon Hunters Gathering - Announcement Trailer | PS5 Games 1 week ago:
I hate everything about this. I hope it does well enough that it doesn’t shut down their studio.
- Comment on Why are people still romanticizing No Man’s Sky’s “redemption” arc? 4 weeks ago:
lol, look at OP’s only other post. Looks like another account for my block list.
- Comment on Is there desire for Capt. Una spin-off? 5 weeks ago:
Personally, I wasn’t particularly enthused with the character. I didn’t gravitate towards her at all. If they did something like that, I’d still check it out because SNW was so good, but I’d rather see something with Ortegas (not as captain, obviously).
- Comment on Behind the Scenes - Prince of Persia (1989) [Making of] 1 month ago:
For anyone interested in this, I would also recommend reading the original dev diaries: www.jordanmechner.com/en/books/journals/
I really enjoyed the read, personally.
- Comment on Is there a point we can track down when we stopped caring about doctors, nurses, teacher, etc? And thought it was a great idea to pay atheletes millions and screw everyone else? 1 month ago:
I don’t think doctors fit in that group. They are paid well, and respected, far more than nurses on both accounts.
- Comment on Lords of the Fallen 2 Will Be Revealed During Gamescom 5 months ago:
Funny enough, the original is the one I like. Hated the reboot.
- Comment on Lords of the Fallen 2 Will Be Revealed During Gamescom 5 months ago:
I’m so tired of game naming trends. Let’s not make any mention of the sequel being a sequel and name the third game number two!
- Comment on John Wick Hex will be removed from sale on all platforms beginning July 17th, 2025 7 months ago:
It was okay. Nothing exciting, but one aspect of it that I did like is that you can choose to watch your choices happen in real time after you finish a level, which - although not the smoothest - does actually make it feel like John Wick just rolled through.
- Comment on 32, f. Are there any dating sites that are actually free and don't suddenly force me to pay to actually use the site? 7 months ago:
Well, shit. I pulled out my laptop to grab the scripts and it looks like the extension was updated and it wiped them out. I didn’t have them backed up anywhere else, so I guess their gone unless I find myself back on the apps again (please, god, no…).
- Comment on 32, f. Are there any dating sites that are actually free and don't suddenly force me to pay to actually use the site? 7 months ago:
OkCupid was amazing 15 years ago, but it’s pretty shit now. For what OP is looking for, it’s probably still the best option, but it’s a very low bar.
OP, if you want to check out OkCupid, message me. I can set you up with a couple of browser scripts I wrote to improve the website experience. One will show you your matches’ photos. You won’t be able to view their profiles, but people that like you will generally show up in the profiles you’re shown pretty quickly, so it’s easy to find them. The other will need to be slightly tailored to you if you want to use it, but it will automatically skip any profiles that are showing to you that don’t meet your minimum requirements, and even alert you if one of them liked you instead of just skipping it, just in case you’d like to give it a closer look before you make a final decision.
- Comment on Microsoft is closing down Xbox studio The Initiative, with Perfect Dark killed as well — joining Everwild and ZeniMax's new IP, and other unannounced projects 7 months ago:
Agreed. I really wish more multiplayer games would put in bot options. I am firmly an anti-PVP player, but I would play the hell out of some of the big PVP games if they gave me a pure PVE option.
- Comment on Microsoft is closing down Xbox studio The Initiative, with Perfect Dark killed as well — joining Everwild and ZeniMax's new IP, and other unannounced projects 7 months ago:
To be fair to MS, they bought that with Rare a long time ago, and they have put out a perfect dark game since then.
- Comment on Microsoft is closing down Xbox studio The Initiative, with Perfect Dark killed as well — joining Everwild and ZeniMax's new IP, and other unannounced projects 7 months ago:
Thanks for the correction. I was also looking forward to Perfect Dark. Been a big fan since the original on N64, hence the username.

Fuckers buying up studios and then shutting them down. I knew this was going to happen.

“If that were true, I’d be trying even harder to make you take it.”
- Comment on What do you have to wake up to to be considered a heavy/light/normal sleeper? 8 months ago:
Mirroring what others have said, often even heavy sleepers have sounds there sensitive to that wake them up immediately. I had someone crash on my couch one night. I knew they had to be up in the morning for work, so I set an alarm for myself to make sure they got up too (this is right around when smartphones were starting to become a thing, and it wasn’t really common to have alarms set on your phone, hence why I was going through the extra effort for them). I woke up and went over to try and wake them up. First it was a soft nudge in the shoulder, then a harder one, then a shake, then grabbing them by both shoulders and aggressively shaking them. I literally stopped to check their breathing and make sure they hadn’t died on me. My roommate came out during this and was also laughing and wondering if they had died. I really had to use the restroom, so said I was going to do that and then come back and give it another go. While I’m in there, I hear their phone go off and my roommate starts laughing hysterically. Apparently as soon as the tone went off on their phone, they sat upright, wide awake.
- Comment on Borderlands 4 Price Has Been Confirmed 8 months ago:
To be fair, The Pre-Sequel was made by different studio entirely, but I agree that the Borderlands 3 story was utter crap. It was so bad that I couldn’t bear to keep playing, despite how I felt about the gameplay (which I honestly don’t remember at this point).
- Comment on Prince of Persia remake apparently still on track for 2026, per Ubisoft 8 months ago:
It wouldn’t have gotten so much hate at release if it was a remaster, but it was a remake that looked like a remaster, which is not acceptable when you’re talking about a 20-year gap. They made the right move, which is what’s so surprising to me.
- Comment on Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy - Reveal Trailer 8 months ago:
It looks like it has nothing to do with Plague Tale.

Might want to update your other post too.

Fantastic speech! So happy I decided to watch it!
- Comment on Which co-op first person shooters would you recommend? 11 months ago:
Seconding Dying Light and Borderlands 2. Excellent games! If you’re open to 3rd person, Helldivers 2 and The Division 2. No idea about DRM, though.
- Comment on Netflix culls staff at Oxenfree developer Night School Studio 11 months ago:
I didn’t realize that Netflix actually bought the studio. I just thought they licensed the game or something.

If you can’t play with a light gun, what’s the point?
