Yup this BAFFLED me for years. I was thinking things like “Why the HELL is Hot Fuzz reusing the sound effect from Diddy Kong Racing!?”

- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 2 weeks ago:
Check out Outward. It has a Morrowind/Everquest kind of feel. It’s an offline RPG, but you can play co-op. You have to basically discover all the mechanics/secrets through trial and error or talking to NPCs, which makes it feel very old school.

I bet there’s private PSO servers you could hop back into. I’m currently playing PSU on Clemantine and it’s an amazing nostalgia experience.

My friend and I played split screen for years in high school on a tiny 12" CRT. I’ll never forget finally beating the Ruins on extreme difficulty. He had to revive me 10 times during the boss fight because one attack would always 1-shot me. It was a 15-minute white-knuckle struggle, and it was incredible.

Yeah, pretty sure it’s just on PC. And the Dev passed away a few years ago so it’s essentially abandonware
- Comment on What are some games with absolutely fantastic soundtracks? 3 weeks ago:
Love the writeup on Bastion. I have very similar feelings about Aquaria, an indie metroidvania from the beforetimes. The entire game is centered around the soundtrack, weaving the motifs into the game’s narrative. Even moreso than Bastion or Undertale, Aquaria makes it’s soundtrack a key narrative driver.

- Comment on Sony Sues Tencent Over Horizon Lookalike 3 weeks ago:
Eh this lawsuit actually sounds like it has grounds… Tencent asked to make a spinoff, got rejected, then made it anyway.
Sony states that during the pitch meeting, Tencent did not disclose it was already working on Light of Motiram. According to the lawsuit, Sony rejected Tencent’s Horizon pitch in April 2024, stating that while it “greatly appreciated Aurora’s level of passion and the effort put into the pitch,” it would not be pursuing the partnership.
When Tencent did announce Light of Motiram in November 2024, Sony states in the lawsuit that its gameplay trailer did not feature any of the “Eastern-inspired clothing, aesthetics, and backdrops that Tencent pitched and instead copied Horizon whole cloth.”
- Comment on Abiotic Factor review - Abiotic Factor is an instant survival classic, and one of the best games I've played in years. 4 weeks ago:
Always keeps you on your toes. System Shock 2 also had monsters able to respawn anywhere, so you were never 100% safe.
- Comment on 13 skeletons 5 weeks ago:
Wish can consequence-free emulate any level 8 or lower spell. So you could get 11 worry-free skeletons, or risk never casting wish again if you need 13.

- Comment on Eating would be weird if we didn't enjoy it. 1 month ago:
I actually do enjoy cooking! I’m usually the one preparing meals since my wife works a later shift. Nothing terribly complicated, but I do stews, stir fry, pasta, etc. I like making my own pizza dough, and I have a great pizza stone for it.
But again, it can often feel like a chore to cook, and if my wife were more receptive to it, I’d probably rely on Soylent more. As it is, I’ll drink about one 400 calorie bottle a month if I’m busy or especially lazy.
Soylent certainly isn’t for everyone though. It’s like a protein shake in terms of consistency. The premade flavors are pretty good, and back when I was buying the powder I was adding my own flavors (peanut butter powder was the best). But doing that for a few meals in a row really messes with you the first time. You kind of feel both full and starving at the same time.
