  I’ve never played a consoley Hitman nor tried a controller, but I loved the original hitman (silent assassin) and the original series sequels up till about Blood Money. I didnt enjoy Absolution, it’s too choreographed unlike the originals where you could actually be creative and kill people in a variety of ways.

  Then got pretty confused when I realised they reset the numbering with “Hitman” and “Hitman 2” (why do games do this?) and just gave up at that point and haven’t tried them or anything newer

  I love factory games. I have over a thousand hours in Factorio.

  I’ve almost entirely avoided trains. I just build conveyer belts everywhere. Huge long world-spanning conveyer belts. I just dont like having to think about trains, when conveyer belts are so simple to use.

  I’ve always played inverted because it just makes more sense to me.

  but at some point I just gave up on controllers altogether. They’re too annoying to target accurately. Some fancy steam game tells me it plays better with a controller? No thanks, I’ll stick to games that’ll let me use keyboard and mouse, where I’ve been training my whole life to click on tiny buttons. Controller just feels like hard mode for no reason.

  Whenever my wife complains I look homeless and is willing to spend 20 minutes cutting it for me.

  Which is roughly every 2-3 months I think. It’d be less often if I didn’t have a wife and had to pay someone to do it, that shit gets expensive.
