I wish my wife could play subnautica with me, as she likes swimming around and stuff but isn’t really “good” at video games, since she never played one until adulthood.

In Minecraft it’s mostly me doing the work while she does farming stuff. I once came back from a deep mining trip to see a once-empty field filled to the maximum with cows. We had a nice library afterward though.

I still haven’t beaten subnautica without cheating or taking shortcuts. Heck when I first downloaded it, it didn’t even have an ending yet.

9.3/10, it’s fun

Right? Call of duty is basically 5 seconds of setup and then everyone just sprints at each other guns blazing.

Who asked for that??

If I had to guess? Children/minors who don’t like setup time.

Yeah, ruining play experiences by locking things behind paywalls is a terrible thing to do.

Removed by mod

Landlords province nothing to society, they are leeches who profit off others hard work simply because they “own the property” the worker lives on and takes care of.

Save a tree, axe a landlord.

I’d love to be able to repurpose my old kindles. I have 3 of them that have been gifted over the years and another two that I could probably just ask for since family members have newer ones.

Ideally I just want to have a simple ebook reader and nothing else for at least two of them.

The only issue is from the (admittedly small) searching I’ve done, they aren’t easy to root or install custom roms due to the software version or how new they are. I’ll admit I don’t exactly know what I’m even looking for.

I’d rather reuse things I already have than buy a new tablet just to read books on, especially since it seems like they’re just overpriced generic crap that all looks and mostly feels the same.

SNAKE?!

Weird, I was literally just thinking about FLoB last week, and meant to see if he ever got there.

My wife asked what I was doing, so that side tracked me into explaining the Far Lands, and we ended up playing Minecraft for the night.

I honestly expected it to take WAY longer to get there.

Yeah I got mildly excited when I read the title, and now I’m just mildly irritated.

Good for pc players though, it’s something!

Fuck it I’m buying it now.

Half life 2 was my first “I can’t wait to get home and play” game, despite having played so many games from basically 97 onward.

It seems like every time it goes on sale, I am either between contracts or just not able to justify the unnecessary expense.

Now that I have more stable employment it hasn’t gone on sale.

Honestly this by itself might be enough to make me pay full price.

I wonder how long it took, considering they wrote a script to convert the original transcription into PZ usable stuff.

10/10 mod, no pattern buffer for you.

Well, you’re certainly entitled to your (wrong) opinion!

Lol it’s not for everyone, especially if you started out with goldeneye. A lot of people I play with don’t have the same appreciation for it, and that’s okay.

And yeah, it’s so cheesy, it makes people spontaneously develop lactose intolerance.

But much like the movie Evolution, I don’t love it because it’s groundbreaking and iconic to its genre. It’s fun for me.

I’ll be honest, they fucked this game over hard in my opinion.

It really does feel like they separated everyone into teams, and none of the teams spoke to each other once. They all just delivered their chunk of the game without connecting pieces together.

Base building was a nightmare, and that’s the primary reason I downloaded it in the first place.

Then I finished the main quest and spoilers ahead for anyone who cares

Kind of killed literally every desire I had to play the game. Especially when they patched the easily accessed chests that at least gave me a shortcut to some things.

Lol. I wasn’t going to be paying full price for a game anyway, but now I’m not paying for gearbox games ever again.

I’m sure they will.

And as long as none of them try profiting off it, Nintendo has no leg to stand on with their usual C&D bullshit.

The spectacle of it would certainly boost sales for a little bit. How much and whether it covers the development time, who knows.

I’d do it on principle alone, but I’m a petty bitch.

Nintendo can sue me any day, I’m out here making RC hang gliders and making tiny 3 second games where the only purpose is to pull out a glider and put it away instantly.

It’s the capitalism way.

“The company with the best, cheapest product will come out on top… Unless the shittier company has more money and lawyers and then they sue everyone else into the ground for even attempting to break into the market.”

Shit like this is why I haven’t bought a Nintendo product in many years.

They might think it’s keeping their profits up, but it’s hurting their business, as a lot more people than me feel the exact same way.
