People have been asking you for days with zero explanation: what the fuck happened to you here to make you go on this weird pseudo-crusade?

There are some truly online takes out there, and this is definitely one of them.

Buckle up, it'll get worse from here as more people come over from reddit.

All I hear is the Nutshack theme

In-game or real life? Lol

I don't remember any controversy surrounding DOOM and satanists irl

And the line for Metro about taking points off for weak lore rubs me the wrong way. Like I'm not necessarily a fan of the Metro series, but I understand why others are.

Like damn, I didn't realize the recommendations had to be cinematic masterpieces too.

Halo

This should be the top answer for anyone asking for FPS recommendations.

Also there's no need to justify playing Warframe. It's fun as hell. Also, you do realize in DOOM that you're killing the demons and devil worshippers, right? And what controversy with the director for DL2? I played both Dying Light games but the first one is way better anyway.

The city is absolutely cursed. Wasn't it originally built on or near a native American burial ground or something? Or is that just Grundy and his swamp?

Plus the multiple Lazarus pit thing.

He doesn't have a doctorate but Joker is stated to be an expert chemist almost on par with Scarecrow, just different focuses.

Ra's Al Ghul is 600 years old, a master of multiple martial arts and languages, has first-hand knowledge of all kinds of history, and is the leader of the League of Shadows.

And I'd be willing to throw most supernatural villains in the list too.

That's how I've seen people explain it. Like everyone who has access to the funds is basically taking a bit for themselves. And if not, then almost everyone is incredibly easy to bribe or pay off somehow.

Basically Gotham is corrupt to the absolute core (think every facet of city government, all the bureaucrats and city workers and such) and the League was right to have a plan to wipe it off the map.

"Something goin' on in there?"

"Nope."

I finally got my PS3 emulator up and running, so I'm finally able to play Sly 4 for the first time.

It's... different from the others. First in art, second on overall feel. The art is changed for a more cartoon aesthetic than comic book, so animation in the 2D cutscenes is more fluid and there are more details on everything (you can see the wrinkles in Sly's shirt, and the tufts of fur, for instance). The gameplay feels more floaty, like when you jump it looks like you kinda hover for a second before falling back down and it feels a little more weightless than the first three games.

I'm still liking that I get to play more Sly, so I'm not complaining too much.

Which sauna?

If we really wanted to make it difficult, we could use stills from the newer episodes. I feel like most of us either haven't seen all of them or haven't seen them enough to know where they'd be from.

This is what I choose to believe

Old people have too much fuckin money. They have an actual cave?!

And of course porn flash games

"The human mind. Six hundred miles of synaptic fiber, five and a half ounces of cranial fluid, fifteen hundred grams of complex neural matter... A three pound pile of dreams. But I'll tell you what it really is. It is the ultimate battlefield--and, the ultimate weapon. The wars of this modern age--The Psychic Age-- are all fought somewhere between these damp, curvaceous undulations. From this day forward, you are all Psychic Soldiers. Paranormal Paratroopers! Mental Marines who are about to ship out on the adventure of their lives! THIS IS OUR BEACHHEAD. And this is your landing craft! You shall engage the enemy in his own mentality! You shall chase his dreams, you shall fight his demons, you shall live his nightmares! And those of you who fight well, you will find yourselves on the path to becoming international secret agents. In other words... Psychonauts! The rest of you... WILL DIE."

Imo (and most other fan's opinions) you should absolutely start with the OG, if nothing else than to see how gaming has evolved and such.

If you're feeling it, I'd recommend just jumping into BM. With the original being so fresh in your mind, you'll really appreciate the work these people put into their remake. It's so full of love for everything in the original (and a bit of HL2) that it still kinda blows me away with all the little details and such. The scientists and other NPCs all look distinct now and have different personalities and voices, and before shit hits the fan you'll hear plenty of little banter and idk chat between your coworkers as you make your way to the rest chamber.

There's also, as a mod for Black Mesa, another team remaking Blue Shift in the new engine and all. They're not done with the game yet, but what they have is about 3-4 hours worth of story finished (the first 5 or 6 levels I believe), and it's actually expanded on even more than in Black Mesa or the original Blue Shift. There are more named characters, extra parts added to missions, and it feels like the same care went into remaking Blue Shift as went into making Black Mesa.

There's also a fun part at the beginning that has an overlap with Black Mesa where you, as Barney, see Gordon go by in the tram, and I think he flips you off in like a teasing playful way.

People did shit like this all the time on reddit. Why are you personally taking offense to this?

I've been curious about Lethal Company, but I'm not a streamer and I don't have friends to play with.

That said there's another game almost identical to LC called Murky Divers and instead of going around different research stations on different planets, you're cleaning out research stations underwater.

You have a sub that you use to go around the ocean, and there's like a radar to help you navigate, avoid creatures and obstacles, and find locations to actually go into. There are all manner of creepy underwater creatures and anomalies to find/avoid, and I'm sure there's at least one giant sea creature that can come and fuck you up if you're not careful.

Tbh I didn't get very far because as soon as I pulled up to a location and got out of the sub, I freaked out and turned the game off. I ended up refunding it because, again, I don't have friends to play with and I'm not a streamer lol. But it did seem like an interesting spin on the concept.
