In other words, they’re exactly the same as a lot of the games on disc for Xbox and PlayStation.

Checkov’s Law and Murphy’s Gun seem to mean the same thing.
- Comment on What game has the best tutorial, in your opinion? 1 week ago:
I think the Great Plateau is roughly the size of OOT’s entire world, so if she only played classic titles that may feel reasonable.
- Comment on Switch 2 Breaks Records By Selling Over 3.5 Million Units In Four Days 2 weeks ago:
Don’t forget that the Wii U had one of the most incompetent console marketing campaigns of all time. Just two years ago I met someone who still didn’t know it was a console and not an accessory.

Nintendo has been the Apple of the video game world since the N64.

To be fair, the odds of removing a dagger from a pedestal doing that are extremely low, even in the survivor trilogy.

That’s still a paradox.
- Comment on End of 10 - Windows ten is ending. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again? 1 month ago:
I’ll be doing both with Linux as my primary and Win10 as a compatibility fallback.

Multiplayer games and ones that require Uplay or Origin (can’t remember their new names) have issues, but most single player stuff will run fine. You’ll typically have to run them via Wine or Proton, but Steam will handle that for you.

One of those ditzy but attractive types, perhaps?

You don’t really find those so much as make them.

There isn’t even a federal sales tax to replace, just state sales taxes.

The Sangheli in Halo actually have two fingers and two thumbs on each hand.
- Comment on [Digital Foundry] Oblivion Remastered PC: Impressive Remastering, Dire Performance Problems 1 month ago:
Doesn’t work in the remaster; they changed so that all skills contribute to level up progress.
- Comment on Well played, Todd: You can see Skyrim, or at least its tallest mountain, from the edge of Oblivion Remastered 1 month ago:
Oblivion and Skyrim are 200 years apart, but geographically border each other. Classic Oblivion didn’t render Skyrim, but that was more for technical reasons than anything else. If you get high enough up in Skyrim on a clear day you can see the entire continent.

Yes, but you have to shake the cow pretty vigorously.
- Comment on Oblivion Remaster Rockets Past 100K Players on Steam Hours After Launch - Insider Gaming 2 months ago:
I like to describe classic Oblivion characters as looking like they were all carved from the same potato.
- Comment on Skyblivion fan project lead reacts to Oblivion remake news with "all love and no hate" 2 months ago:
It’s also from the era when people were expected to read the manual while the game installed, so the game never has tutorials for certain things, most prominent being fatigue. New players tend to run everywhere, drain their fatigue meter, and struggle to hit anything or cast a spell. Just reading the manual, as the devs originally expected, solves a lot.
- Comment on Skyblivion fan project lead reacts to Oblivion remake news with "all love and no hate" 2 months ago:
I’m fine with almost any changes to the combat. Oblivion’s combat felt worse than both Morrowind’s and Skyrim’s to me.
- Comment on Skyblivion fan project lead reacts to Oblivion remake news with "all love and no hate" 2 months ago:
Also, Skyblivion will, at worst, only cut into their PC sales. The official remake will be the only option available on consoles due to the nature of the mod.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 - The Final Patch: New Subclasses, Photo Mode, and Cross-Play 2 months ago:
Kingmaker also has the problem of every encounter being designed for a full party but not actually having access to a full party until late in Act 1, after many mandatory combat encounters. The RNG also seems to hate me.
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 - The Final Patch: New Subclasses, Photo Mode, and Cross-Play 2 months ago:
Also note that Owlcat’s other Pathfinder game, Kingmaker, is absurdly punishing. Start with Wrath.
- Comment on Metro 2033 Redux is free to claim on GOG for the next two days 2 months ago:
Uh, enemies are actually less bullet spongey on high difficulties, just like the player. Some humans have armor that you have to either spend bullets shooting off or shoot around by aiming at unarmored portions, but enemies typically go down really quick.

I thought they made that a subscription now.
- Comment on When did movie credits move from the beginning to the end? 2 months ago:
Credits followed by the opening crawl also would have been tedious.

Rules were changed. Lucas actually left the directors guild to have closing credits instead of opening credits. Not sure if he ever rejoined.
