That’s just a list of games that used to be good and now suck.
- Comment on A postal worker in Harlem attacked a trans woman. She fought back and fatally stabbed him in self-defense. This is how the NY Post framed it. 5 days ago:
The story seems to be all over the place so it’s hard to piece together.
Getting in a fight over who’s first for a sandwich though and her comments afterwards make her seem like she was looking for an opportunity for something like this.

Not after I’m done, never be the same again…

Never knew it was commonly painful, I’ve heard from people I know it was like a slight pinch on insertion and then no pain afterwards.
- Comment on Warhammer 40,000 Maker Games Workshop Is Doing So Well It’s Giving $27 Million to Its Staff 2 weeks ago:
It’s definitely pricey, a couple of reasons:
I believe the kits are still entirely made in the UK rather than Asia like so many things.
The quality and designs are arguably the best in the world with techniques far more advanced than most rivals can compete with.
This doesn’t mean they don’t get greedy and stick on a huge profit, I believe they heavily rely on staff who love the hobby to run their stores too and pay very poorly.
- Comment on $80 for Borderlands 4 too costly? Randy Pitchford says, "If you're a real fan, you'll find a way to make it happen" 2 weeks ago:
Can’t wait to play it…in 2035 summer sale. Maybe I’ll even get bored in under 2 hours and get the instant refund.
- Comment on No, Steam wasn’t hacked, and your account details are safe 3 weeks ago:
It’s to help reduce smurfing in f2p games like the ones mentioned below. (Dota and cs)

It’s good to have a constant in the current world, steam seems okay, I love what they’re doing for Linux gamers, I think they should reduce their share by at least 5%,but they do a good service and seem competent.
- Comment on Microsoft laying off about 6,000 people, or 3% of its workforce 3 weeks ago:
Every issue I’ve had has been easily fixable with searching and following instructions. There’s not been many issues, and I can do it anyone can.
- Comment on Microsoft laying off about 6,000 people, or 3% of its workforce 3 weeks ago:
Works great with steam. I went back on my ethics and played wow classic for a while though and battle.net was a little tricky for me to get going. But yeah steam works perfectly.

I started with pop os 5 years ago and haven’t found a reason to change. I’m not hugely techy and just wanted something to play games on. Had very few issues overall.
- Comment on Today's featured article on Wikipedia: Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories 4 weeks ago:
I hated the existence of this game. Loved KH1 and excited to play KH2 only to not understand anything that’s going on. No idea there was an in between game on an entirely different console, not even a Sony console. Very frustrating as a kid.
- Comment on What is your favorite indie game? 4 weeks ago:
Just looking though some of my higher playtime games, here’s a few I haven’t seen mentioned: (I think they’re all indie or small studio)
Gunfire Reborn - Roguelike fps with infinite replay.
Troubleshooter Abandoned Children - XCOM style battle system with a really really fun way to customize how your character fight. Story is pretty lame though (I ended up skipping it) and it’s pretty grindy.
Thronefall - Pretty challenging base defence.
The last spell - Turn based base defence with lots of different ways to build your characters.
Ratropolis - Roguelike real-time card strategy base defence. Pretty good, although not well balanced at highest difficulties.

Don’t think I can go back to dota, deadlock is really great though.
- Comment on The US Secretary of Education referred to AI as ‘A1,’ like the steak sauce 1 month ago:
I’m fully onboard that you past shouldn’t matter if you’re good. I won’t hold it against Linda McMahon for her WWE performances etc. But she’s an odd cookie and has no place running education.

I got 5, so which Kardashian am I? Not sure the point.
- Comment on What's the community for stuff like this? 2 months ago:
Ironi, onions are generally the first thing to cook. You don’t desperately need onions midway through a meal, you need 5 spice which is 4 years out of date.
- Comment on How You Doin? 2 months ago:
My understanding of the Maryland accent is entirely Baltimore from the wire and the ‘aaron earned an iron urn’ video. I imagine it’s closer to ahh-iit, though. Is it the single sound of London or drawn out like I imagine?

UK London and east is, ‘y’aight’, which is you all right? Shortened to one syllable.
