- Comment on Reported lead of Obsidian's new Fallout game wants you to feel a "sense of agony" when playing an RPG, rather than being an all-powerful god-splatterer 6 hours ago:
I think that misses the point of the series though, or at least 3 and 4. The point is that you become the god that saved or destroyed the wasteland. You become the legend for the next generation.

The death of Monty endured it would get worse.
- Comment on Like Every single fucking time, and it's not only about Ancient Greeks 1 day ago:
People who think that something being fiction means there are no rules and anything goes are the most annoying people to discuss with.
- Comment on Valve to no longer offer physical gift cards due to scammers 5 weeks ago:
Digital makes it much easier for steam to track. They can more easily identify steam accounts and emails that are part of scam networks. They have options like not allowing sales to be delivered to scammer@scam.com, or reverting transactions they believe are scams within 24 hours.
- Comment on Steam winter sale is live. What patient games are you picking up? 6 months ago:
So far just dlc for games I already own. Maybe I’ll get Slime Rancher.
- Comment on Are AAA Games too bloated? 1 year ago:
It’s not so much that the games are bloated (they are), it’s that many are incredibly gated as well. There’s always been super grindy and bloated games, but the degree it’s done today is just different. You can’t just spend two weeks putting in 100+ hours into a modern game and complete everything. It’s no longer kill a million mobs to get this achievement, it’s kill 100 mobs max a day until you kill a million. It’s do this phase and wait a month for the next phase.
Diablo 2 is honest and open about it’s grinding, modern day games aren’t.
