• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Enshrouded shows promise for an early access game. Lots to improve on, so probably safer to wait it out, but I’m a sucker for survival crafters.

  Will be an Easter egg in DS2 for sure

  It made me laugh so hard when I learned that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ok, the clutter itself is bugging me now. It's all identical, right?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  BGS spent over a decade training us that every piece of junk had purpose, then did away with all of it in Starfield. I’m not saying that had to stick to TES and Fallout design principles, but why offer so much lootable junk if it truly is just junk?

  Correct, just Honor Mode

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Baldur’s Gate 3 Patch 5 Adds New Playable Epilogue With 3,589 Lines of Extra Dialogue, Much More⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Patch 5 also improves inventory access, letting players manage the inventory of all companions from one single UI, regardless of whether or not they’re currently in your party.

  YES. I was just looking for a mod to do this but it’s so much better when the devs build out a highly-requested feature like this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microplastic overdose⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have clear rolling papers and they’re a cool gimmick but not at all practical for everyday use. Harder to roll and doesn’t stick to itself as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This level explains my 30+ year fear of being strangled by seaweed.

  The very few times I was able to clear this level (with a low-health Don), I immediately died in the van level. Yet I kept coming back…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox users call out Activision and Microsoft for "vomit inducing" full-screen Modern Warfare 3 ad⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Any sort of ad on a luxury item you’ve already paid for should be cause for concern for the future. Sony does have ads, but they are hidden in menus and are static text ads, not video ads (yet).

  Even in 2nd grade, I knew this was a squirrel hunting simulator.

  I will never ever ford a river.

  Too lazy to install SFSE and achievement unlocker? It takes maybe 5 minutes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Have you ever been taken into space while attempting to hijack a ship?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  In my defense my kid sucks IRL too 😂

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Have you ever been taken into space while attempting to hijack a ship?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  So, your kid is a reaver.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Severe bug with save file⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you using mods? Some have been updated for the new patch but usually it takes a day or two for all of them to catch up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starfield update 1.7.29 released. FOV slider/brightness/contrast/HDR setting added + Nvidia DLSS support on PC⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The thing I don’t get is this would be what, one person’s afternoon to implement and another to test? Why not take that time and ship with it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rating down at 77%⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess I’m a dipshit and didn’t follow the link and assumed this was a metacritic score (which is actually 87, with a 5.6 user score).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rating down at 77%⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Ratings are so hard to trust these days. Some people never play the game they are reviewing, others use it as an opportunity to enact some vendetta based on prior games, and some are worth reading. 77 is fair enough at this stage, but the only way to know for real is how the game feels for you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Share your tips and tricks!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You can hide your spacesuit when in settlements using an option that appears in the inventory screen

  I just wish people wouldn’t comment on my still wearing a space suit. Yeah, I know I don’t need a helmet on this planet, I’m just not going to take it off every time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I haven't seen this mod-free traversal tip posted here, but it's a game-changer! (PC Only?)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, I forgot to mention! This is from the Reddit post:

  steam://controllerconfig/1716740/3033314324

  Paste this into your browser URL bar and it will take you to steam, just hit “Apply Layout” down the bottom right and you’ll be able to forward boost with L3 + Y (or Triangle on PS controllers).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it just me or is Starfield kinda meh?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You can usually fast travel from one location to another, no need to take off. Just enter the menu, navigate to your location (or use the mission tab to show on map), and fast travel. Saves those multiple steps. Only exception is when you’re docked - you need to undock first.

  But I agree, space travel is more complex than land.

  Kinda like space.

  Same with food. Unless I modded that and forgot about it.

  I’m so glad I don’t have lane assist.

  But yeah, I pass Honda minivans and think they’re fits.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mozilla review of 25 car brands finds they're "a privacy nightmare"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I will drive my 2013 Honda Fit until the wheels fall off. I love it and with a $20 Bluetooth adapter, it has all the amenities I could need. I think it’s insane that people are driving around with a tablet that controls their heat and radio.

  If you’re looking for something to complain about, you’re gonna find it.
