- Comment on Half-Life 2 is currently 100% for its 20th anniversary 1 day ago:
Sweeeeeeet! I had HL2 on my ancient Steam account that I lost ages ago, it feels right to have it back in my library all these years later.
The anniversary update sounds tempting, but I think I’ll wait for HL2 RTX before replaying it.

- Comment on Minecraft-like free and open source game VoxeLibre (formerly MineClone2) hits over 500K downloads 2 days ago:
Fair warning though: Vintage Story is vveeeeeerrrryyyyyy slow paced and involved. Making a pickaxe for ex requires you to find copper nuggets scattered on the floor, making a mold, heating the copper in a crucible, casting it, then waiting for it to cool.
- Comment on Has Fast Food Gotten Worse, or Am I Just Getting Old? 2 days ago:
Brand names have gotten worse, that’s not you. Cost saving measures upon making sizes smaller while still raising prices. I swear, KFC mid-2000’s was amazing compared to the bland oily ones of today.
Local fast food is still really good for me, but I’d just avoid major brands like Mcdonalds. They’ve become synonymous with trash food.

- Comment on I want to feel like a bad-ass wizard 6 days ago:
Kingdoms of Amalur has very fun, very flashy combat. The rest of the game is really ehhh, but if you just want to blast magic and have cool skills then it’s a great choice.
- Comment on Ghost of Tsushima - I've heard it's a nice game, but it overstays its welcome. Do you agree? 1 week ago:
Yup, but that’s my opinion of most open world games anyways. There’s a lot of Ubisoft-esque content like “free this stronghold” or sidequests that involve you slowly following an NPC and they get old very quickly. The combat also doesn’t evolve that much, so I found myself bored around the halfway point.

- Comment on What is your favorite Halloween older game? 2 weeks ago:
MediEvil. It’s not a horror game, but I always think of it as the game that carries the Halloween feeling the best.

- Comment on PS5 Pro just got even more expensive as Sony admits these accessories won't work. 2 weeks ago:
Also the title is so misleading because it acts like it’s missing a vital component when most people really wouldn’t care about alternate covers…

- Comment on Entire Mac Lineup Now Finally Starts With at Least 16GB RAM, Ending 8GB Era 2 weeks ago:
It’s not ideal, but you’re getting probably the best hardware in the market in return. The M series still dominates Windows CPUs, and the build quality on most $1000 laptops leaves a lot to be desired.
- Comment on In the era of remakes and remasters, what niche game would you like to see receive the treatment? 2 weeks ago:
I really wouldn’t mind a remake of Left 4 Dead 2 with better netcode and more official maps.

- Comment on Whatever happened to racing games 2 weeks ago:
As for indies, there’s also a ton that are good. Just recently we got #DRIVE Rally, Victory Heat Rally, WHAT THE CAR?, Aero GPX, and some others I forgot.
- Comment on Having $270 billion dollars and spending the bulk of your time trying to make more money is like weighing 900 pounds and thinking "ooh, I bet I can get to 1000". 2 weeks ago:
It will stay an echo chamber until mods step up and start removing low-effort posts. Also, people are downvoting me in favor of an engagement bait account with one post lmao. That’s how bad it is.

When sockpuppet accounts are posting to unrelated communities, no shit I’ll complain. “Rich people are bad” is not a showerthought and you know it, but I guess let’s just spam the platform with this nonsense and keep making new accounts to boost these posts. What’s wrong with that?

So I guess showerthoughts is going to be the new platform .ml users will use to complain about capitalism? OP is a brand new account and this was their first and only post.
Yes, I will keep calling this out.
- Comment on Sharpen Your Nostalgia: CUT3 Shader Upscales Retro and Modern Gaming 2 weeks ago:
There’s a web demo here: …github.io/cheap-upscaling-triangulation/
Looks nice on games with simple graphics, but I’d still never use it on pixelated games.
- Comment on Stories and Mechanics around punishing over-aggression 2 weeks ago:
I haven’t played Overwatch for a while but for a time there was a notorious meta called GOATS (3 tanks, 3 supports). It was an insanely aggressive meta that focused on rushing straight into the enemy team, tanking them, and killing them before they can react. The only way you can counter it is by also running the same team comp and hoping to kill them faster.
It ruined ranked games for a few months and the devs apparently had no idea how to fix it without nerfing tanks or supports hard - which would make playing them feel terrible. That’s why OW added a role queue and enforced 2 damage, 2 tank, 2 support teams.
