Dad's looking for a tank simulator game he can casually play. Moving around in 3D makes him dizzy and WASD confuses and frightens him. I'm gonna download Armored Warfare and hope there's a Very Easy setting with the bots. I wonder if there's a submarine simulator game that wouldn't be too challenging for him.

Train Simulators aren't hard right?

I mean... yes? It seems pretty logical to me that an issue brought up publicly in the first place should have a public resolution.

Twitter is really good as long as you don't use it to keep tabs on popular people or politics, and instead follow your friends and read their cool posts about their lives (and post about yours too).

See I was under the impression people other than her were tweeting about it which forced her to be open about it which I don't know if she was comfortable with being public about it. I haven't seen her twitter at all cause I don't have an account.

sounds to me like facebook is vastly better for that than twitter, considering it doesnt have the asinine character limitation or the possibility of being harassed by tons of people at once, or being doxxed and having your life destroyed because you said something people dont like

Here you go, friendo, a tank ... simulator for your dad with no WASD or 3D movement.

a lot of people were speculating about it but she wasn't involved in the drama and just presented the info of her own volition as she wasn't one of the main people involved in it, just someone that he'd been weird to once

Well, nobody should be coerced into giving away their information to the public, and it's not very reasonable to expect them to want to. I was just saying that there's nothing wrong with wanting to see something conclusive so that you can make informed decisions about how to feel.

I mean they seem pretty much the same in that way to me, with the exception that you have to be friends with somebody to do tons of stuff on Facebook which doesn't have an equivalent requirement on Twitter. Either way Facebook is better for keeping up with people you know in real life imo

i wish melee attacks didn't overheat your suit in vanquish, probably the single thing i would change about the game. at least some of them let you burn the rest of your slowmo after they connect.

Now time to go back to Zelda for a while, I guess. :geno: Or maybe Fabulous would do a better job of keeping my interest

The only thing is it might be too fast paced for him. If there's a game that combines the gameplay of World of Tanks with the low stakes of Nintendo Golf...
