Eh, probably not. But if you're looking for the real explanation, that's it.

We're a bunch of individuals posting on a public message board. A few like minded posters can make it seem like everyone is of one opinion or another. You have to stop seeing this as some sort of democracy or community, this is essentially a public place and the mods are there largely to prevent behavior that is wrong in absolutes, like racism and hate speech. There is an ignore button and it is very powerful. If you don't like someone, push the button and they won't exist for you anymore. It's the only way this can work, you can't expect attitudes and opinions to be policed.

Relax Or DIE posted:anyone played much of griftlands? I played quite a bit in Early Access and absolutely love it. It has the fun deck-building of slay the spire with lots of additional systems layered on top. It's tough but not grueling like StS and you'll probably be winning runs before long. That said, you can also put additional difficulty modifiers on once you want an extra challenge. I highly recommend it and am really looking forward to the 1.0 release.

I played a bunch of Griftlands, but it was when I was deep in the Slay the Spire hole, which ended up with me just wanting to play StS more than Griftlands. 1.0 should be a good time to go back because it seemed interesting with all the little narrative bits it had.

Video games have turned my kids into wage slaves – but without the wagesquote:There are currently three computer games occupying the house: the 13-year-old (M), sometimes in conjunction with the 11-year-old (F), plays Fortnite, a game mainly about shooting people; the 13-year-old (F), also sometimes with the collaboration of the 11-year-old, plays Genshin Impact, a whimsical, open-world environment game, whatever the hell that means. Avatars dressed as pirates or fairies wander about the place, doing chores, occasionally fighting giant warthogs. Mr Z plays Hitman, another shooting game with very densely layered storylines, though he always skips them so never knows what’s going on beyond that; the aim is to leave everyone else dead in a laundry hamper.

Bowsette returning to the poll is exactly the pick me up I needed, bless you. Currently playing Moon rpg on switch. Just a wonderful chill game after the first hour or so (you have a daily limit that is very tight at first but it's not an issue for long).

It's definitely more of a community than it is a bunch of people hollering in the middle of the street. It's smaller, there are def. communities within subforums/threads, there's a lot of history. As a community it's also honestly way kinder than its ever been. I came back to this site recently after years of staying well away and the edges have softened so much it's kind of incredible. Back in the 'oughts, people would drop a specific homophobic slur like every other post as if it was nothing, and basically every forum had entire threads devoted to cyberbullying someone who was usually a combination of not part of somethingawful but also mildly eccentric. It was, in hindsight, bad and hosed!

It's smaller, there are def. communities within subforums/threads, there's a lot of history. It feels like so many toxic people jumped ship after the back to back lowtax. We lost some good posters, but a lot of the mild misogyny and homophobia seems to have disappeared.

ShallNoiseUpon posted:they should make a Jojo Yakuza like they made a Fist of the North Star Yakuza I want a good JoJo game but they are so tied to the source material that I think making something really open-world would be difficult. If they did, Diamond is Unbreakable would probably be the best thing to crib from since it takes place in one town. I was playing a bit of the Golden Wind PS2 game and it's about what I'd expect for an adaptation of the series. There's apparently a PS4 game covering the whole series but both of these games are mainly arena fights. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wMtsnE_F00 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqg83WyLMIA e: fuckin beat, shoulda used za warudo

I'm not sure about Dishonored 2. It's fine. It's beautiful. But it feels perfunctory. Outside the graphical refresh, I don't think it's much of an improvement over the original. There's barely any evolution of the core concepts. Level design might be a step back in some cases (I know there some upcoming levels that are supposed to be standouts, though, so I'm looking forward to that). Can't complain too much because almost no one else makes these games, and I have to stress it's not bad, but it very much feels like it's Arkane spinning its wheels. And the chaos system remains a pet peeve of mine. I told myself I'd just go with the flow: try and avoid unnecessary killing but stab a dude when I have to. And I immediately ended up with high chaos at the end of the first level. So the next level I reined it in, but it was so much less fun and it still wasn't enough to change the chaos rating. Caring about this stuff is optional, but at least for me it's hard to completely disconnect from. I would have liked it if it recognized my half and half approach, but it seems the threshold for chaos is fairly low.

I read that guardian article at work today and it seemed such an empty take that I’m genuinely not sure what the point was. “My kids are playing video games and taking them seriously, that seems bad but not too bad. P.S. I’m playing FNaF, it sucks and I love it.”
