  In case you haven’t deciphered where the cut off points are:

  • Cassette Beasts
  • Pseudoregalia
  • Return of the Obra Dinn
  • Chants of Sennar
  • Gloomwood

  Here are my recommendations then:

  CrossCode is a personal favorite of mine. An action RPG heavily inspired by retro games.

  Library of Ruina is a great non-roguelike deckbuilder. Technically it’s a sequel, but it’s not necessary to know anything about Lobotomy Corporation to get the full enjoyment of its story. At most you can just look up LC’s true ending if you aren’t interested in brutally hard management sims.

  Tactical Breach Wizards is a really intertesting mix between a turn-based tactical game and a puzzle game.

  Never even heard of it till now, so it probably didn’t work the way they wanted it to.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney supports the $900 million lawsuit against Valve, arguing Steam is "the only major store still holding onto payment ties and 30% junk fee"⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That argument is stupid for anyone who understands how games utilize DRM and DLC. As long as DRM is not involved, there is literally nothing stopping you from getting the DLC from somewhere else. Things are slightly trickier with DRM, but not impossible.

  If I’m remembering correctly, price parity only applies to keys sold off platform, rather than the game itself because they don’t profit from the keys being generated.

  WTF did I just read?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨6🤷‍♀️7⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s two numbers that can multiply together to make 42.

  Other than that, it has no meaning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trains cancelled over fake bridge collapse image⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It took skill to do this before. Hardly anyone with that level of skill and time would do this. Now the dumb idiots have access to that skillset because of AI doing all the work for them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Half of the US Now Requires You to Upload Your ID or Scan Your Face to Watch Porn⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Computer hardware & accessories, networking equipment, and appliances. Physical media and hatdware specifically for playing it has been on a decline because of the prevalence of streaming.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Countdown is starting⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The radio at my workplace has already started playing Christmas music a week ago. They can’t even wait until after Thanksgiving to play that crap now.

  I played both HK and silksong on arch, and haven’t noticed any glaring problems like that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Brad buys a house⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  At one point mine was barely legible cursive. Now it’s a bunch of squiggly lines that barely even resembles cursive at all.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Brad buys a house⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Mine was a variation of my xbox gamertag.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Begun the kernel wars have⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Valve never intended for deadlock to have as much media coverage as it did. It happened anyways because a media outlet chose to ignore the informal NDA message that popped up when launching the game. The message was removed shortly after the incident.

  Dark traffic?!?! LMAO. Can we start calling malicious ads dark advertising?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Itch.io is delisting NSFW games due to pressure from payment processors⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Visa/MC make up most of their income. They were given the ultimatum of either banning a small group of games, or losing the ability to process payments almost entirely. Itch is not the problem here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Good ending⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Why are you buying clothes at the soup store?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Grieve with me⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I had that exact same experience a few months ago.

  Whoever is poisoning the AI search results, please don’t stop. These are hilarious.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ads⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I just copy and paste the link into my browser. Lets me make use of sponsorblock that way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tradition⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  If you’ve gone this long without knowing, you are probably better off staying that way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Denuvo respond to their rep for tanking games - "I'm a gamer myself, and therefore I know what I'm talking about"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  At least Capcom eventually removes denuvo from their games. I’ll probably wait until that happens to play Wilds.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Denuvo respond to their rep for tanking games - "I'm a gamer myself, and therefore I know what I'm talking about"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Same for me. Denvo killed me enjoyment of monster hunter world. Locked me out of the game when I tried playing it after a long break from the game. Being told I have to wait 24 hours before attempting to play a game I paid for was a quick way to get me to not want to buy any denuvo game.

  It looks like SCP 1507 broke containment

  Why. Why must you remind me of that cursed story.
