- Comment on Happy Star Trek Day! What was your first contact? 2 months ago:
TNG 4x17 - Night Terrors
Still a fave.
- Comment on My (re)discovery of roguelites 4 months ago:
Hollow Knight is my favorite game of all time. It’s tough though, and you will feel lost and “where the fuck am I supposed to go?”.
I recommend that new players install the mod manager and enable “free” Gathering Swarm and Wayword Compass charms mods. Frees up 2 charm slots for two QoL charms – those two free slots will make the midgame a tad easier.
- Comment on What's your favourite era for video games? 6 months ago:
Early-mid 90s.
The latter years of the NES, the entirety of the 16-bit console era, the golden age of PC adventure games & the dawn of multimedia (CD-ROM based games & talkies).
Just before the release of Doom, where FPS took over; and the PSX/N64, where (bad) 3D was teh hotness; is where it’s at for me – likely why I live my MiSTer FPGA so much.

- Comment on On the end of Discovery 11 months ago:
Premise was great, buildup was okay, outcome and resolution were awful.
- Comment on [deleted] 11 months ago:
Project Diablo 2 is a pretty vanilla version of Diablo 2 LoD. Yes, it rebalances.skills and items, and adds corruptions and endgame maps, but there’s no new skills. For a complete overhaul, you want MedianXL.
That said, I’d still forego both and go with D2R. Modding is coming along, finally. After a regular playthrough or eighteen (6 classes × 3 difficulties), give Diablo 2 ReModded a try.

Sir Patrick Stewart as the Encarta (or was it Britannia?) encyclopedia “help” narration was hilarious in how unnecessary it was.

Loved him as the evil Protoss in SC2.
- Comment on Games that my non-gamer girlfriend can watch me playing? 11 months ago:
Play retro adventure games, or modern Telltale ones.

Lemme guess on the two cheevos:
“Bounce the 'rang 25 times”
and “Equip a certain relic and do some boss fights”For the first, just find an enemy you fight CLOSE to and just button mash.
For the second, it’s not hard, just do it on NG+ and start EARLY.

Try Sea of Stars, it scratches that Chrono Trigger classic RPG itch, while nearly completely eliminating the grinding. I got every achievement in it, and at no time did it feel like a slog.

Wanna get every item? There’s a feature that facilitates that, which lets you know what areas still need to be swept, near the endgame.
-
Feel like you’re not leveling fast enough? There’s an easily purchased in-game item to double XP.
-
Only got time for short sessions? Save points are everywhere
And yet, the game isn’t too easy, either.

“After rejoining the Great Link, I carry with me now the voice of all my People. I apologize if I… if we… sound… different.”
Problem solved.

Rene’s son is basically a clone of his dad, appearance wise.
