CAPT. Rainbowbeard posted:To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand PC gaming. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical player's head. There's also the gamer's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into their characterisation - their personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike PC gaming truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Bill's existencial catchphrase "Who could possibly need more than 640 kB?," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Gabe Newell's genius unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have an nVidia tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. 5/10, should have changed the bit about jokes

Go ahead and buy an Xbox One.  gently caress off, I have no problem using computers, I just don't like how often I'm dealing with things that shouldn't happen. That's not on me, and if you were honest with yourself you'd admit how much you have to baby your poo poo to make it work properly. It's better than it was a decade ago, but it's enough to be annoying when you value time more than anything.

It's really more shocking to me that they manufactured Kinect for like 8 years than it is that they are killing it.

I got Christmas NiGHTS free in some magazine and it was fun, but not good. Dragon Force and Iron Storm were I think the only good games on that system.

Maneki Neko posted:Some decent stuff hitting Game Pass in November (does stuff actually disappear?
