I really didn't like Lake. Too slow, looks kind of crappy, story didn't grab me at all from the start. There's probably some good story elements in there further than I got but I decided to refund. I can't help but compare it to Road 96 which I think is a whole lot better

Infinitum posted:PEGI have updated their rating system, if your game contains gambling it is an automatic 18+ game. Kind of hilarious how utterly useless this is. So now fake gambling, like say you have a poker minigame where you are gambling FAKE money, is 18+. But randomized lootboxes, which is ACTUAL gambling with REAL money, isn't? I mean, good for making an effort I guess...

frytechnician posted:When Ferman retired, he campaigned to have legislation around hardcore porn severely relaxed, so that he could enjoy his twilight years. He died 3 years after stepping down." Clearly all the hardcore porn just made his heart plumb give out Rarity posted:The problem with the horror genre is that unlike drama or comedy or romance its tools and language all have limited lifespan. All horror movies boil down to the fear of the unknown but as soon as you put it in a movie and a bunch of people see it the unknown becomes known and then it's no longer scary (and eventually reaches the point of parody). Like if you watch Nosferatu now it doesn't move the needle at all but back in 1925 it was terrifying. It's why horror goes through phases like the classic monsters of the 30s, the slasher flicks of the 80s and the torture porn of the 00s. You find what works and you milk it until the audience goes numb and then you find the next thing. So just cause horror films aren't scary any more it doesn't mean they're bad. Nosferatu's still a classic. I wonder ore about horror games. Why are there a nearly infinite amount of lovely first person horror games, who is buying them? If some lovely low effort game comes out there's like a 50% chance that it is a horror game

Webbed where you are a little spider who can shoot webs, Arboria which is like a bizarro soulslike roguelite with weird troll plant monsters, Tiny Robots Recharged which is a little diorama puzzle game, and Voidigo which is a 3/4 view action roguelike with a cool and super insane art style

Holy poo poo I got selected in the newegg shuffle! Proud owner of a new 3070 (I didn't get to pick, they only let you buy one of the things you select and I selected a lot of items to broaden my chances) plus a 2 TB SSD that they forced me to buy along with it Don't care though, I'm happy enough to finally be moving on from this 1060. I game on a 1080 monitor so I am thinking the 3070 will have me covered for many years Help Im Alive posted:What percentage of jrpgs have a protagonist with some form of memory loss? Could I wager as high as 20%? That new AAA JRPG Tales of Arise has exactly that so in terms of JRPGs I have played recently I think it's more like 100% lmao I wonder what's actually in that poo poo cuz I assume it is not amyl nitrate? or maybe it is, who knows

Tales of Arise is really good actually. For me it's the only game in history with that formula (JRPG but 3D with exploration and real-time skill-based battles when you encounter enemies) that I've ever liked even a little bit. It looks great too.

hatty posted:The combat seems to be decent this time, I’ve hated every system after Vesperia but this one is good They kind of rely on absolutely massive health bars for the big enemies and bosses, but I was pretty impressed that I died like 4 times on the first boss, 1 time on a mid area boss, and now I just got absolutely owned by a sewer monster and I'm legitimately unsure how I will ever be able to beat it. Hard does not equal good, but I'm sure there is a strategy here, plus just better execution, that will get me the win. FirstAidKite posted:I told my current landlord that we'd need to stay here a few more days because the new place isn't ready yet and they legit had the gall to ask me to give them my new landlord's contact info so they can keep in touch with them about us Mine just raised the monthly rent by like 200 dollars now that I'm going to month to month. I'm leaving in a few months thankfully but gently caress them. I've lived here for like 4 years too, can I get a discount for being a long term resident and probably the easiest tenant they have in the whole place? No.

Zil posted:Make sure to get lots of electrolytes and especially potassium, will help with cramps and mitigate some of the soreness. Magnesium as well is supposed to be helpful. I get horrible lactic acid toxicity after even a moderately strenuous workout, and it literally makes me feel like I have the flu. Exhausted, fuzzy brain, body hurts, even nausea it's very strange. Chugging a huge magnesium powder drink afterwards helps a lot though. In any case, congrats on getting back into working out. Can't wait until the weather around here isn't so crushingly hot so I can go skateboarding and take the bike out and stuff.

cheetah7071 posted:They're trying to give context to the headline that China is trying to ban effeminate men in media. I.e., it's a specific word with a more limited meaning than effeminate. I wasn't trying to whine about it, I really did learn a lot, but yeah the overall point ended up being a bit elusive ymgve posted:the context didn't really make it any less anti-LGBT though, unless I'm missing something lost in that looong thread I don't think it did, but I don't think that was really the purpose anyways. It was really just a bunch of background to explain the context of the proclomation, plus a lot of Chinese/Vietnamese linguistics. They didn't even say the Western headline were wrong per se, just added context.

GlyphGryph posted:What other movies are good... The Thing is good. John Carpenter's remake, obviously, not the original. Well, the original might be good too, I've never seen it, but it probably wasn't as good or I'd hear more people talking about it. I think they remade it again at some point and it was... not good? I don't know. My favorite piece of media from The Thing is a short story by Peter Watts. I actually read it before I'd ever seen or heard about the movie(s), and only connected it later when I heard someone talking about the movie. I just thought the short story was very creative and fun to read, told from the perspective of The Thing itself. The whole thing is online actually https://clarkesworldmagazine.com/watts_01_10/

2021 has been amazing for games in my book. then again I actually love video games not just complaining about themBarudak posted:I am Fish controls bad and is stunningly stunningly poorly optimized Yeah I was hoping they would fix those optimization issues before launch. The game performs just as bad on my new 3070 as it did on the 1060, so it is clearly a flaw with how they've put it together. It's still pretty fun though actually, a lot of the levels are solid and very enjoyable. I found the controls okay for the most part, they are purposefully awkward since weird traversal mechanics are pretty much the point of the game Help Im Alive posted:high IQ required - 99% of gamers can't solve this puzzle 😲 well it's hard not to immediately spot the logical fallacy there
