i played like 40 minutes of fallout 4 a year or two back and in that 40 minutes i felt fuckall intrigue whatsoever. i thought fair enough i may just be dead inside, but then i finished sable and hunted down all the chum eggs and had a pretty good time. sable just had me going 'what's that? i wanna check that out' all the time and each time i did it was something interesting or creative.
i'm really hoping starfield isn't going to be 1000s of planets of uninteresting characters, same-old faction battle stories and sensible but ultimately boring buildings and geography

if you don't think Solaris is a cool and interesting story you shouldn't be allowed to work on space games imo

lol that Bethesda could not think of a better plot than "find the 5 artefacts but oh no, pirates want to stop you!"

also lol that their animation still has the "armour is welded to your body so everyone is constantly doing a funny hip jiggle all the time" thing going on

ace combat 7 is a dumb anime storyline jet game and im loving it. are there any games where i can shoot 20 missiles at something and they all leave cool trails?

if you have a dreamcast, check out bangai-o or bangai-o hd if you have a 360. it's not BC, unfortunately, and i don't think there's any modern ways to play (unless there's DC or 360 emulators i'm unaware of, which is entirely possible)

also with the buyout starfield or whatever is xbox only and on the PC

but a new PC is insanely expensive right now (and maybe forever) and ... well I own a PS5 and gently caress playing a first person game with a controller

Almost spent 5½ euros on GOG after being lured in by a giveaway of a game I'll never play.

But 0,49€ for Blake Stone is a pretty good price.

I'd buy a new Blake Stone game. They've made several good Wolfenstein 3D sequels, why not Blake Stone?

The fact that some of the dudes were actually allies not enemies was like a #WHOA #WOW moment for me back in the day.

yeah that's pretty much MSRP these days. the fancy three-fan EVGA 3080 I bought for $1150 CAD last week has an MSRP of $879 USD, which is only $13 USD less than what I paid.

supply isn't why costs are hosed now. costs are hosed because nvidia demands it.

i feel like paying that kind of money for a video card is like owning a $300 pair of jeans. sure you can do it, but it makes more sense to not do that. just get a console or play on lower settings
