I got the sarlaac down to 25% hp on super star wars during my last attempt. I'll finish it someday.

DeepQantas: Ah, to be a Hero... Keeping such company...

I beat the Stanley Parable Demonstration.

I also broke it by doubling back thru a door that was just closing. And I did a speedrun... it was something like 14 minutes which means that the demo failed its own criteria of "must be exactly 8 minutes long".

After the first paint puzzle in Portal 2 there's a small office area cordoned off by a railing. The railing does a little dip near the office door where you can jump on it. From there you're out of the map and can jump to see the previous test area from outside.

for a game like heavy rain or the walking dead, playing it a second time worsened the memory I would have of it for the rest of my life. kinda the same with playing stuff like final fantasy for the first time, then skipping every cutscene and doing terrible min-max bullshit for the entire game, taking twice as long for everything while having half the fun. I'd say playing a game past it's apex is not a wise thing to do for your overall experience with it, and thus, your existence and through your actions, the entire universe. Barring that humanity has any semblance on anything.

I played through Skyrim 3 times, the last time was the most fun because I knew how to become overly powerful and once I was a tank just barreled through the whole story and all the side things

I'll have to see if I can get to it when I go back home for winter break. It's funny to me that this game's difficulty was considered a good idea for kids who just wanted to get their luke Skywalker, X-wing pilot fix.

the Super Star Wars series is the kind of difficult where poo poo just happens, like your guy gets hit by a missile out of nowhere, or you have to make a blind jump and it turns out to kill you

I play the poo poo out of the few games I have, because I can rarely afford new games.

but even then, I'm too busy to play games much, except browser games, Pokemon Shuffle, and Nekoatsume.

sometimes i think i enjoy the act of buying games more than actually playing games

but then i look at any of the steam backlog threads and suddenly the number of games i've bought that i'm not playing doesn't seem bad at all. it's like drinking a six pack and then thinking "ah jeez am i an alcoholic?" only to walk in on a room of people lying on the floor chugging 2 liter bottles of everclear

I don't think you can ever really finish a game of cities skylines. you just get bored and simulate a natural disaster by making a giant poop dam and flood the city with it, making for a neat looking shitlantis.

played that game called LOVE for 20 minutes or so, which was enough to beat it.

got it for about 2 bucks with the soundtrack. enjoyed the music most about the game. not gonna go for any achievements. not regretting the purchase.

In purely material terms videogames you don't play are probably the one of the best ways you can waste your money. The material costs for producing one more copy are negligible, unlike producing a sports car, for example.

Whether that rots your brain, though, is a different matter.

Try Prison Architect. If you can't put your own life in order, at least you can do so to someone else.
