death stranding rocks so much lol

is it Actually Good or is it one of those games that gets a super uncritical reception because a poo poo ton of hype was built up around it and neither "games" "journalists" nor captial-G G*mers could break their collective self-induced mass hysteria to say it's actually poo poo?

ok, so the saints row 2 question, then:

because of mods, or because it's a good game?

I will never read more than the title of a piece of ~~ViDeO gAmE jOuRnAlISm~~ and just judge them on that premise and I can assure you her premise is in fact poo poo. The story for every triple A game is poo poo and focused tested into the most moronic watered down filth your for the average gamer.

one of my favorite things to say is that games like the last of us or whatever david cage wankfest is getting attention are further removed from movies than a tom clancy looter shooter, simply by virtue of that game bearing the name of someone who wrote books that got turned into movies

Standing still makes them visible, they don't move much . Otherwise just crouch walk at angles with your little scanner antenna pointed at them . Hold your breath as much as you can

ahhh ok that's what i was missing. i mean, i knew what i was supposed to do (avoid them) but for the life of me couldn't figure out where they actually were

i played it a bit, didn't understand what i was doing, played it a bunch, still didn't understand what i was doing, and gave up. it looks like there's fun there, but i think this is a me problem, not a cultist simulator problem.

cultist simulator is really cool but is written by a lovely sex pest so steal it if you're going to play it

it being written by an abuser and sex pest recontextualized the mechanics of dealing with cultists in a way that makes it Not Fun for me anymore, but ymmv

hey so I went into the steam thread for the first time in a long time and look at the lovely posters there

judging by how many nights i had to pick my last roommate up off the floor after blacking after spiraling down the path of cocaine, mushrooms, and alcohol out telling me stories of watching kids getting raped and being prohibited by threats of leavenworth to not take the shot, i really don't think these steam kiddies actually want to deal with the hosed up rape scenario this guy is dreaming about

i used to, until i started letting capitalist assholes extract my job as value and return as little of that value back to me as they can get away with.

i'll even go so far as to say that i'm good at figuring out and fixing problems, but it's become so toxic as a means of self-preservation that i just can't stomach it during my leisure hours.
