  Playing through ff7 rebirth and was trying to finish a dragon age origins play through I’ve had going on since 2022.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If I wanted to, hypothetically, guarentee that I shit my pants 2 to 6 hours from now, how should I do it?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Movieprep or kleenprep. I’ve had both and one definitely worked for me and the other only kicked in the morning off my endoscopy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨V Rising has launched out of Early Access!⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ehh can’t speak the for the parent comment but I don’t like spending more than 15 quid on indies unless it’s something I really like the look of. Like I bought stray and kena full price but I haven’t bought this when I’m not a survival fan so not sure if I’ll enjoy it despite it seeming like a good game.

  I’ve only beaten it once for some reason I can never beat the >cloudburst tank again

  Not am Austin game though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft Closes Redfall Developer Arkane Austin, Hi-Fi Rush Developer Tango Gameworks, and More in Devastating Cuts at Bethesda⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It is. Lots of “gamers” can’t be fucked learning the difference between Austin and arkane, it’s like how there’s people who think bioware Montreal is the same as Edmonton or rockstar north is the same as san Diego when north makes GTA and the other red dead. Generally gamers don’t care what studio does what just the first part of its name. Arkane Lyon are developing blade and that’s still in progress.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gender-specific toilets to be required in non-residential buildings in England⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly and even in the UK the laws of England won’t necessarily be the same as the laws of Scotland and Northern Ireland.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Recommendations for Pacific Northwest Themed Games?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It is a chill game. Basically you deliver mail every day to NPCs and have conversations with them. That’s basically it but I really enjoyed it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gender-specific toilets to be required in non-residential buildings in England⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  K but I’ve never seen a cinema in the UK with mixed toilets so moot to the UK. Gender neutral here is like a disabled toilet or a small cafe which only has space for a single toilet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK Government Response to the Stop Killing Games Petition⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t forget going after disabled people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The “Require videogame publishers to keep games they have sold in a working state” petition just got a response.⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is why I never saw the point in the UK petition. Fuck all chance the tories would give a fuck and it was a waste of time signing it. I very much doubt there’s even 100 mps from all parties that have any real understanding of video games or give a fuck about them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tour dates⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Must be bittersweet learning he wrote and performed so many great ones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TOEM is an amazing game, here's why⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Basically a steam deck streams you’re library onto a handheld device, I don’t know if the PC needs to be on or not though. It’s like playing PlayStation games remotely on PlayStation portal or game pass games on an android through the app except the deck is a dedicated device like a portal but plays more than just games bought through steam.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Half Life 3⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Pretty much this. I’m fairly certain that I read years ago that Gabe just wasn’t interested as well. Which fair enough valve don’t need to develop games now because they have to but because they want to.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Disability benefit claims can’t be made on ‘unverifiable assertions’, argues Sunak⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe I’m stupid but pip was only brought in just over ten years ago as a way to reform the system and prevent “scroungers and cheats” by the Tory’s, surely by pushing reform now that’s all but admitting they’re thick as shite and and they’re deliberately targeting vulnerable people. How does the electorate not see this?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yep⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Or yeppers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everyone who reads this was at some point(s) in their life seconds away from death, without realising it.⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I already know of a couple occasions where I was close to dying. Once at 5 I split my head open and had to go to hospital for stitches, I had a tea towel held to my head to stem the flow of blood. The second time was three years ago when I was admitted to hospital because of a flare of Ulcerative Colitis (IBD, Crohn’s disease is the other type) and I lost so much blood over the months I had the flare that I had to get a transfusion and iron infusion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Remember when the body washes contained literal micro plastics and were advertised as such?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember my sister telling me to use facial wash for acne with stuff like that in it. Thank fuck I’ve ADHD and never got a routine going with using it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lawsuits test Tesla claim that drivers are solely responsible for crashes⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Good luck not getting killed then…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lawsuits test Tesla claim that drivers are solely responsible for crashes⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And? What the fuck does that change in regards to the lawsuit? He is the CEO and he is responsible, that’s the reality right now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk says it's his turn to have the remote⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Skydiving without a parachute would be my first choice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Generative AI could soon decimate the call center industry, says CEO⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This has been my experience whenever I’ve phoned support.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Best Linux Distro For Playing On Steam?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Basically any that appeals. My biggest issue when I last used Linux with gaming was getting non steam games working through bottles or lutris, I had no idea how to set them up. Steam and proton played almost all of my library and worked well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If a universal basic income started today with the stipulation that you had to put 40 hrs/wk towards making the world a better place or solving societal problems, how would you spend your time?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Welp. I don’t know if I’m capable of working to begin with my chronic illness. I’m unemployed currently and it’s not even manageable at home, I’ve been in hospital twice in a month. And I’ve been having a flare up of it since January. So most two seasons so far.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Laurence Fox told to pay £180,000 in libel damages - BBC News⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  He’s from a nepotistic family. Look up his siblings and dad, they’ve all been in fucking, lewis.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Too soon?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nope. Nope. Nope. Incels are fully to blame for when they act violently. Fuck making excuses for people who think that it’s everyone else’s fault that they can’t get laid and then become bitter and hateful.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can an online library of classic video games ever be legal?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s because of how shit saints row 2 and gta 4 are on PC that I use my Xbox to play Xbox 360 games.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can an online library of classic video games ever be legal?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If copyright law is involved then you’re looking at 70 years after the author’s death or 95 years depending on which expires first for it to be public domain and only the original iteration is released into the public domain. That’s for the USA and different countries have different laws and I’d imagine that would complicate things massively as an online library would have to be compliant with various laws of different countries

  So take Mickey Mouse for example he’s now in the public domain but only in his original form in the Steamboat Willie cartoon, anything that uses something more recent than that like his red shorts for example would be taken down.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Remedy Makes Changes to Core Management Team, Wants to Grow Alan Wake and Control into Larger Franchises⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s already a sequel planned and being worked on plus a multiplayer game set in the control universe where you play as a ranger of the fbc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨About to try the Outer Worlds⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The game’s maps are like walled areas of differing sizes so don’t expect open world or a sandbox. The cities are also walled and they differ in size so be prepared for that. I remember being disappointed with one city that’s built up and getting to it and finding out it’s about the same size as some others and there wasn’t much side content or exploration. The game’s writing is great and I think there’s various endings but I only played it once. There isn’t any romance with the companions but they’re well written l, there’s one in particular whose storyline I really appreciated as a queer person. Hope that isn’t a deal breaker for you as some Gamers have issues with things like that.

  Overall I enjoyed it, just never felt like I needed to replay it like a Bethesda game, I play those once and do the things I want in it and move on.
