  • For me, the sense of place and visuals were top notch. It was extremely immersive. While that carries it far, the car was also very fun. Customizable with parts and new body styles you could find around the wastes, you put work into the car and made it your own.

    The car combat is also very fun and is a kind of gameplay I still love but doesn't get much attention nowadays, so I really enjoyed that aspect as well as the junk storms and collecting the other stealable cars. Past that, yep, it was in the format of a traditional Ubisoft open world game, but, sue me if you want, I like those kinds of games.

  • Just beat Slay the Princess twice. Wow, really lived up to the hype for me. Excellent writing and art. Excellent... Format and pacing for a visual novel with a lot of different choices. The themes it explores are incredibly interesting and varied.

    I heartily recommend it to anyone who enjoys a VN with a mysteriously intriguing story.

  • The grave, I would expect "From the cradle to the grave" to be describing the subject. So if the elf is marrying the old woman, then he's robbing the old woman's grave

  • Indeed. My current house is great thanks to an inspection. My wiring was incredibly old, and so are my pipes. We had to replace the wiring, legally, as the house couldn't be insured, it was a fire risk, but I'd rather know that than die in a fire.

    And if I didn't use a good inspector I would've ended up at a different house that looked amazing, but had incredibly expensive termite damage hidden behind insulation that the owners shoved in the foundation to cover up the damage.

  • My therapist actually said the same thing recently, and it would make sense. I've got an appointment, actually soon to look into it

  • I lay out all my problems on the table pretty immediately, so I wouldn't say surprised by, but probably least expected would be that for a guy my sex drive is very low. I've been about half to a quarter as driven as any girl I've been with.

  • I think each new game in the Sword Art Online franchise is sort of independent of the mechanics of the previous. Hollow Realization had a lot of flaws, but I liked being able to class as whatever you liked, I played healer.

    And I liked the mechanic where you could choose behavioral traits for your party members and if they performed abilities and actions that went with those traits you could praise them and they'd mold into the playstyle you wanted

  • Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization is also mechanically designed as a single player MMO

  • As the manager who has to go get more and replace them every time we rapidly run out, no

  • I actually have a playlist called The Bucket List which is only comprised of entire albums where there's not a single filler track in there, in my opinion, of course

  • I'm not sure if the reason fits the definition of reactionary, but that is a pretty awful take, which is at the least wildly ignorant, and at worst, trolling.

  • There was a lot of talk about RDR's code being duct taped together and being really difficult to undo for a port, took them until recently to really start doing so in earnest, so maybe they've wanted to for a while but are just now seeing the fruits of that labor.

  • I think it's clear you guys disagree on a lot of major life philosophies, and that broadly it would've been difficult to get along with his current views. I don't think this is anywhere near "I'm meant to be single" territory.

    You just need enough time to meet someone who more aligns with where you're at in life currently, and that just wasn't him.

  • The first sentence says they're working on an RTS currently. Even if they weren't, the CEO is probably allowed to share his opinion on RTS games even if he hasn't made one, just like all of us can. I think what's missing is the qualifier "will never be mainstream across all major continents again"

  • Funnily enough, the game is basically stuck at 60 FPS for me, even though I have a 144hz monitor. Everything I look up says the game engine wasn't configured to go past that and anything higher requires mods and such for it to be supported. I'm a relatively modest gamer who plays a lot of Switch, so as long as it's consistent I don't mind, I just keep it at 60.

    Glad to know Starfield can go higher, but my computer isn't amazing so newer games just don't stay consistent above 60, I just cap Starfield at 60 as well.

  • That would make sense, cleverly recontextualizing a regular saying. It would fit the tone of the letter to do that humorously

  • While I'm sad that you had to disconnect from your family, I'm glad you had the strength to realize that it's better that way, at least for now. Maybe they will come around. It can be a real shock to some people, and maybe they just need time to process how different it feels, but I won't pretend to know your exact situation.

    Thank you for your response!

  • It seems a little silly to recommend for someone else not to play it when you yourself don't even know anything specific about it besides that it's an open world action game.

  • How did your friends and family handle and support your transition? I'm always hopeful that your support system will prove that they were there for you and not for their idea of you.

  • I'm sure it is, it's just because my first experience with it was through that letter, so now it's ruined for me.
