Wishlisted. Definitely will give it a look when it goes on sale. Your review sold me.

Halo Reach is so good. It’s been a while since I’ve played it all the way through, I really should give it a shot again soon.
- Comment on Mirror’s Edge Was Never Meant to Slow Down 1 week ago:
Yeah, I’d probably agree with that. Some games are just better being tighter and more closed off. I love open world and semi-open world games but it’s not always appropriate.

I loved this game. The sequel was actually pretty decent too, but nowhere near as good as the first imo. A rare case of a branch of EA making a good game that doesn’t just feel like a cash grab. Maybe that’s because it was made in 2008 though.

Megadeath
That one already exists. They’re called Pink Floyd.

Nice job! Sounds like a good setup to me. I’m way too stubborn and refuse to do anything other than GUGS and Fallen Knight set, hopefully one day I can git gud and beat him with my favourite setup.

I never finished TLOU2. Once you reach halfway and have to do you know what, for like 15 hours, I noped out.
GTAV is a great sandbox and has a pretty fun main story too. Is it overrated? Probably. Is it still a ton of fun? Fuck yeah it is.

Thank you!

I’ll probably give it a shot the next time I have an itch for Skyrim. I’m not usually one for survival games but it seems worth trying.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 2 weeks ago:
Nice! I love that game. Now I wanna replay it…
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 2 weeks ago:
Good luck! One of my all time favourite games for sure. I much preferred Ashes of Ariendel over Ringed City but the latter is still a good DLC. The final boss of RC is one of my favourite bosses in the whole franchise. Good luck with M, that’s the only boss I’ve never beaten.

Not the person you replied to but I’m definitely checking this out. Thanks for the comment!
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 2 weeks ago:
Awesome pick! Easily one of my favourite games ever, and second most played game ever, but it doesn’t get talked about nearly enough on here. I try to mention it where I can, in hopes more people try it and love it, and then talk about it here. It’s definitely one of the most confusing games to try and buy, with all the different versions available, but once you figure it out, the game is excellent. It’s probably the only game I’ll actually buy all the small added content for.

Oh nice!
You know, after over 5k hours I still haven’t tried survival mode. Most of that playtime is before it was a thing but I’m guessing I probably have at least a few hundred hours after survival was introduced and I never bothered to try it. Maybe someday.

Nice recap! And thanks for the well wishes. It was a pretty rough move, lots of drama with the previous tenants, but it’s over now and we’re settling in. The cats were very stressed out, which stressed me out, but they love it here now, so I’m happy. My wife seems much happier now too, which makes me happy as well. My daughter is too young to understand what’s going on (still just a baby) so she was happy the whole time, which is really the only thing that kept my wife and I grounded. All in all, super stressful couple of days, but now we’re both very happy.

I put my daughter to bed last night and almost fell asleep in the room with her. My wife had to kick me out of the room because we said we’d stay up till midnight. Poured up a small glass of whiskey for myself, wife had cranberry juice, clinked glasses at midnight, took a swig, then went to bed ourselves. Between leaving the kid’s room and midnight we were dozing off on the couch in the living room just waiting for the clock to hit 12. Definitely not the NYE party we used to do one time. Oh well, I don’t mind.

I’m not sure if it’s possible but a mini pro but with good battery life would be the ultimate phone for me personally. I’m basically always on my feet but use my phone a lot so a large battery is important, but I also want a small phone and a good camera. I doubt that’ll happen though.

Just a heads up, your link isn’t formatted correctly. Square brackets with text, then round brackets with the link (so basically just swap the text so you have Look Outside in squares and the link in rounds).
- Comment on NVIDIA Puts 100-Hour Monthly Limit on All GeForce NOW Subscriptions 3 weeks ago:
Yeah that was basically my thought too. I probably do less than a quarter of that on average, but that’s not really the point. I should be allowed as much time as I want. Not that I use a Nvidia subscription anyway, but still. This makes me mad on behalf of other people.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 3 weeks ago:
I really should finish that one. That’s the one that came free on the PS5 right? That was basically to show off all the new features of the new fancy controller? I really enjoyed my time with it but never bothered continuing after the first little while. I should go back and finish it sometime.

Amen to that. I’m more of a rum guy during Christmas but the rest of the year I stick to whiskey. I didn’t drink much this year so I’m still stocked up, but the next time I do buy a bottle I might get Lagavulin again.

What is Kevin doing with a monolith from 2001? Is he trying to learn advanced ways to deal with criminals breaking into his house? Is he not satisfied with his current traps?
- Comment on Steam winter sale is live. What patient games are you picking up? 4 weeks ago:
Oh nice. I love Islay single malts. I’ve never tried Port Charlotte 10 but Lagavulin 16 is excellent.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 4 weeks ago:
Nice job! They’re probably not as impactful now as they were back in 2011, but they used to be one of the most controversial bosses back in the day due to their difficulty. Coming from Elden Ring, they’re really not so hard now, but given the only soulslike before DS1 was Demon’s Souls, which is a fair bit easier at least as far as bosses are concerned, it makes sense it was really hard at the time. Plus, they’re only really a midway boss so it really is a bit of a brick wall if it’s your first soulslike (or second coming from DeS).
I hope you finish the game and play the DLC. Just keep in mind the game ends once you beat the final boss, and automatically spits you into NG+, so make sure you’ve done everything you want to do before that final boss (DLC, Painted World if you haven’t already, any other optional stuff).

I feel that. I’ve missed the last couple sales and will probably sit this one out too.
