instead of "idle" games, people should be playing more "idol" games, like Caligula Effect 2 and Groove Coaster: Wai Wai Party!!!

Nethack is in that genre too since every time you die you can ID all of your inventory

NANI?

Finally got around to playing Far Cry Blood Dragon after years of hearing people say it's 'the good one' and it's the worst one I've played, which is all of them apart from 6.

It's a game entirely written by someone who's friends tell them 'you're really funny' and 'you should try stand up some time'.

its bad. the fact that it's basically the exact same poo poo as FC3 makes the dumb aesthetic seem even more of a put-on than it already is

I never understood the praise, which seemed to extended beyond the aesthetic.

couple years ago we had an all-day marathon LOTR viewing complete with themed meals during and between. that's too much movie to consume in one sitting, but as a light social event with friends where you're not just straight squattin through 3 movies and you're free to chat and mingle or take a nap on in your comfy seat, like, very good time.

There is now more time between the present and the release of the first LotR movie than there was between the release of the first LotR movie and the end of the Korean War.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


More time has now elapsed between Roger Ebert posthumously discovering video games could be art (Bioshock Infinite) than the first Lord of the Rings movie and the Moon Landing.

the only thing ive ever bought on the ff14 cash shop, is the scythe pack that gives you edda's scythe for, like 6 different jobs in the game. not all of their animations really work with a scythe, dragoon looks real weird because theyre just stabbing with the blunt side of it

In dungeon fighter online there's the priest class which has the subclass centered around "eh god's ok but the devil has some points too yknow" and they wield scythes. They're pretty cool.

I was talking with my friend about Sonic soundtracks, and when we came upon SA2, I realized I didn't know any other games that have a strong portion of their soundtrack devoted to Bossanova like that game does with the Rouge levels, and I think that's a vastly untapped market. Can anyone offer suggestions to the contrary? I can only think of one-off, (usually) gag elevator muzak remixes like the one from Goldeneye 64.

Yesterday I was pretty disappointed in the original Halo, so I decided to jump straight to 3 and I like it. It's a pretty solid shooter, and in particular guns feel good to use. Also you can see that this is the studio that would go on to make Destiny.

I played donut county tonight and it was really good fun and took 1.5 hours. It was charming and fun. I'm realizing I haven't finished many games this year and I got some surprise time off between Christmas and new years when I'll be home alone, so I'm going to try to finish link to the past, Sekiro (on last boss, lol), life is strange: the new one, super metroid, dying light: the following, persona 5 (at the end of mementos) and maybe one or two other short games. I'm at the start of middle of a bunch more games but I'll finish the ones I'm close to done with.

I am approximately 50 minutes away from getting all the trophies/achievements in One Piece Pirates 4.

What I came to post about is I am trying to figure out how .4% of people exist who got the achievement for getting 100 million money, which takes about 2x the length of time as beating the entire game by itself, do not have all achievements. There is no other achievement that requires effort like this money one does, and even if you sat down and said, well Im gonna beat every optional piece of content instead of just doing the ones tied to achievements you would still have finished them all with time to go trying to get this 100 million money achievement.

.4% of people said, yes, Im gonna play for 20 extra hours to grind out an achievement but not do any of the others that just involve clicking into a menu once.
