I have reconnected with a true gamers gamer by the name of Tenneb Mcintosh over Synthetik. It is crazy sweet also sick to boot. play it with us, Hokay? Also play hand simulator with gupta.

I just played a bit of Pokemon Emerald. So much nostalgia, great game (also doing the nuzlocke challenge).

Tried getting into this again on my phone a while back and just couldn't. Really feels like I've played enough Pokemon for a lifetime, everything is just so samey.

I just recently finished GRIME, a very Hollow Knight-y game that runs a bit shorter and has much less of a story presence. It was pretty good. Not a perfect game for sure, a lot of it was kind of forgettable, but the boss fights and the platforming were pretty fun and it kept me coming back until I had finished it.

I cannot escape Yu-Gi-Oh the trading card game.

It grabs me. It pulls me. It reels me.
I hate when my oponent floodgates me. I hate when Dragon Link survives another format. And, above all else, I hate, hate hate that a card called "Chamber Dragonmaid", of the Dragonmaid archetype, is a meta-relevant card. I am going to OBLITERATE Konami HQ with my rage.

And I come back. Well, not really, because I never leave to begin with.

I've been playing this game for 3 fucking years. LITERALLY everyday I have EDOPro out, deckbuilding whatever janky stupid idea I came up with. I may metaphorically scream and have my soul forcedly removed from my body when Konami reveals the v-tuber archetype, but sometimes you just gotta appreciate the creativity - by day they're v-tubers, by night they're extravagant thieves. And then Konami reveals Train support and my soul comes back to my body in an ecstasy like no other.
Konami literally printed a card called Superdreadnaught Rail Cannon Juggernaut Liebe that has 4000 ATK points, can boost itself to 6000 ATK points and can attack thrice. Also - your starting lifepoints is 8000. This mf can literally kill you twice over and still have 2000 ATK to spare. Also, you use a card called Number 81: Superdreadnaught Rail Cannon Super Dora to summon it.

It literally is 4 trains with a large platform connecting them, filled with guns, with an even BIGGER gun on top.



Shit like this brings me life.


Also, there's a new deck recently released. It's called Suships, and it's about ships, that are made out of sushi. Literal suships. Their main mechanic? You have a central card - of course, rice - that can then combine with the other cards of the deck - that is, the sushi toppings - to create the battleships, wich, of course, are made out of rice and kelp with their respective topping. This is alarmingly high levels of creativity. Heartstone may be more popular and Magic may have better lore, but DAMMIT I want stupid ass shit like this in my veins.

Project Zomboid. Basically it's like The Sims 1 except you can roleplay the NEET lifestyle with greater accuracy.

ive heard good things about that game, I think ill check it out right now

this tutorial was fucking written by 17 year old me

houses have alarms

fuck

Opposing Force. Enemies are bullet sponges on Hard. All your guns (bar explosives) feel incredibly weak. Not very satisfying to play.

i can't recommend echoes of the eye enough if you haven't played it yet

i can't recommend outer wilds enough if you haven't played it yet
actually one of the best games i've ever played and the expansion is just as good as the base, although i recommend not engaging with the expansion content 'til you beat the basegame at least once

every half life game feels like this on hard, opfor is great

I read a bit about it and it turns out Opposing Force has the difficulty ramped up compared to the base game. Certainly compared to Half-Life 2, which on Hard is much easier (and a lot more pleasurable to play in general). In Half-Life 2 you're showered in health and ammo and particularly things like grenades which come in ever-replenishing chests. In Opposing Force I was constantly out of bullets in my good guns and low on health and having to figure out the optimal play between quicksaves to maximise the two. Not the worst way to play a game but it felt more like doing a tool-assisted speedrun than playing an FPS. In the end I got to the final boss and just sort of said fuck it. Same is true of the original Half-Life, actually.

Played Echoes of the Eye and then Return of the Obra Dinn. Found Echoes way more tedious and repetitive than the base game. Want to go back through and beat the base game again to see the new ending but don't know if I can be bothered. Had to cheat a bit on Obra Dinn. Got impatient and frustrated with my lack of progress after a certain point. The fates started out easy to medium in difficulty and satisfying to figure out and then beyond a certain point I was left with a shitload of unknowns and no idea how to progress. It wouldn't have occurred to me to check the hammocks for crew numbers in the sickness scene or match the Chinese Topmen to their bunks based on their socks and shoes sticking out. The filter over everything made it particularly hard for me to make out small details in the characters' appearances (or the tags on the hammocks). The only thing I'd want to change about the game (other than the filter) would be making it so you could could enter memories through the book instead of having to revisit the corpses throughout the ship, which always made it a pain to go back through chapters chronologically. I also felt that the game did its story a disservice too. It would've been better as a show like The Terror, or even just as a book. Best part of the game was easily the music.

im doing hcgim in osrs and im having a grand old time

like a lot of people i've wasted many hours of my life to runescape over the years, especially as a kid (first got into it in 2004 and was there for the RS2 beta) but like a lot of things i never really got very far with it and can't imagine subjecting myself to it nowadays

why do people do it to themselves? it can take literal days clicking the same few things to gain a level

i have it run in the background while i do other stuff like work, coding or reading

played FF3 (the PSP port of the DS remake), enjoyed it a lot, simple and not nearly as difficult as the original but still good

you bot?

oh lord no lol it's just easy to tab back into the game to queue up another action, esp since runelite tells you when you're idling

If you've ever played and enjoyed VVVVVV, you should try ElecHead: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1456880/ElecHead/
I played through it a few days ago and it was great in a lot of the same ways as VVVVVV in terms of being a fun platforming game with a very unique and clever central mechanic.

Darkest Dungeon 2. Like the first one I want to enjoy it but I find it to be a boring, repetitive slog.

I bought that Foreskin Horizon thing so I'm gonna get bored of that now too I think

I got a X rated Lamborghini which somehow made every AI driver also have a car rated 999 so I came third

BACK TO OXYGEN NOT INCLUDED ITS MY SAME GAME FROM 6 MONTHS AGO AND I DONT REMEMBER WHAT THE FUCK I WAS DOOOINNGGG

when i'm not playing shaft miner in ss13, i'm playing deep rock galactic.
ironic.
ROCK AND STONE, EVERYONE!

sh

currently running through the master chief collection right now if anyone wants to co-op it with me, on Halo 2

ill be playing infinite for probably a few weeks after that as well if anyone would like to join me

Acquired Atelier Lulua and it's pretty chill and cute so far

DYING LIGHT 2 IS COMING OUT TOMORROW LETS GOOOO
GAME OF THE YEAR
(It's probably gonna end up censored in Germany but it's getting a release this time, big step!!)

I liked Dying Light. Can't wait to pirate that flick. Oh, they added Denuvo. Guess I'm gonna have to waste money on it instead.

Denuvo is already cracked + it being cracked increases performance

Think I'm gonna wait until the Denuvo gets cracked to pirate it it seems kind of mediocre

Teichland is one of the studios you should avoid pirating from, if you can. They're gamers, and healthy for the industry since they do pro consumer policies

using denuvo is not pro consumer

also i've been playing sifu all day, it's pretty/good

I bought the last one on sale after giving it a pirate knowing very little about it, actually enjoying it and finishing it but I got kind of sick of it during the second playthrough and never went back and I get the feeling this will be more of the same

Everyone makes mistakes...

So I got banned for 1 day today for making Lukas Judge do blackface and then after getting in trouble writing "Blackface by proxy is not racist" on the floor.
So now I'm going to catch up on a couple of flicks I've been meaning to play:



And they still haven't cracked the Denuvo on Dying Light 2 and Techland still wants $99 for the base version.

They added a no-building mode to Fortnite and it's unironically fantastic. A couple of my friends tried it with me and we've been on it for maybe a week or two. The last time I played the game was way, waaay back before it became a big meme, and the game has improved a ton since then in ways besides just the removal of building: The movement has been thoroughly upgraded (sprinting/sliding/ziplines/jetpacks/mantling/these wacky spider web bounce pads that I think are left over from a spider man crossover thing?) and there are these cars that you can drive now, and let me tell you, the cars are FUN to drive. You can have your buddies ride shotgun and poke their head out the window so you can get into car chases or do drivebys and shit like that, and there are vehicles like the tank with a gunner seat and all this really cool stuff. I've been playing it via the Legendary Games Launcher (easier to use than it looks: Get the exe, from the command line run `legendary auth`, log in to Epic, install/update with `legendary install fortnite`, then launch with `legendary fortnite`) so as to avoid the Epic launcher and have marginally less spyware (though Fortnite itself needs Easy Anticheat which is a bummer but that ship has long sailed for me) and I'd thoroughly recommend anyone reading this to give it a shot.

Vampire the masquerade: bloodhunt
Rogue lineage 2

I'm cautiously looking forward to Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong. Although Tim seems to have stolen it, so that sours things a little. Hopefully it won't have Denuvo, so I can just pirate it.

I had no idea what Rogue Lineage was so I looked it up and found this

A cringe Roblox game which only 20 year olds living in their mom's basement play so they can virtually murder new players with their vind ultra spy so that they can get free internet points.

Is this true

Fuck shit cring i meant rogue legacy 2
I always confuse rogue legacy with lineage

Rogue legacy 2 is good I have it

Rogue Lineage is an evil version of ss13's game design where you progress and gain more power by wiping out other peoples save-data. They get 3 lives and if your evil you snap their necks, taking 1. Or if you're good you throw an evil person in prison which kills them by starvation, wiping out a life. If you run out of lives your data gets deleted and you have to start all over.

It's honestly ingenious at how they create an "endless" game with a toxic atmosphere..But its the equivalent of trying to build a sand-castle right next to the waves at the beach. Utterly pointless!

I bought xenoverse 2 on switch when it was on sale for 4 dollars. Definitely worth it.

Kinda sounds like Rust, which seemed to turn out as a salt generator for Australian teenagers to abuse each other in.
