Aye and it helps the fans are so passionate making new maps to play for both Thief games and TDM.
DKR holds up so much better. It's just mire realised too. Way more stuff to do. MK64 is skeletal more like an arcade game really. Wish it'd get some reverse engineering love as much as I enjoy the fan made map packs for MK64.
With DKR once you get used to the car drifting camera movements, bunny hopping the hovercraft, letting go of the gas before hitting boosts, and learning the plane can also trigger ground boosts you'll feel like a god.
I see a lot of people shit on the hovercraft while I'm over here bunny hopping sharp corners jumping up to smash into walls on purpose like a psycho so I don't slow down ping ponging all over. It's such a joy.

I adored Disco Elysium while playing it, but the ending felt kinda rushed/soured for me so it didn't quite hit top 3. However, the book Sacred And Terrible Air by Robert Kurvitz that was fan translated to English semi recently helped a great deal with unanswered questions about the world the game takes place in that I had which really helped brighten my overall opinion of the game in retrospect.
The book isn't very approachable I think with almost zero exposition, so it actually helps to have played the game first.

Not gonna rank them because I can't.
Age of Empires II I've played since release and still do occasionally.
Everhood 1 everything about it I love. During covid things got very dark for me personally and this game just hit perfectly on some stuff plaguing my mind at the exact right time I most needed it. The devs were one hit wonders unfortunately. Coming from that, the sequel was atrocious.
Thief 2: The Metal Age. It's like crack to this brain of mine. Yes I play The Dark Mod too.
Runners up:
LISA: The Painful
Diddy Kong Racing

Wow they really went for the RCT look, even the logo. I uh, would've preferred a theme park game tbh...but I'll definitely play this.

The tools to get around early CD DRM copy protection is still available on GameCopyWorld's website.

- Comment on Is it worth selling on eBay in 2025? 1 day ago:
I sell to locals first always, but some stuff you just can't. Nobody around me knew for example what a PC Engine Duo was when I was selling off my console collection. eBay is good for that.
I'd garage sale first, local buy&sell websites/apps second, then go eBay for whatever remains of enough value to bother with.
- Comment on AI-generated music is here to stay. Will streaming services like Spotify label it? 1 day ago:
Bandcamp is my still primary new music source, and I've uninstalled my modded Spotify apps over AI. I'm just not gonna deal with it.
- Comment on Uber received 400,000 reports of sexual misconduct from 2017 to 2022 1 day ago:
One of my friends works as a train engineer and despite the brutal and dangerous career she says the regular use of Taxis to and from the trains are the most dangerous and sketchy part of the job esp for a woman. Refuses private owner apps like Uber entirely now, there's been attempts on her on the 5AM trips.

She is? Damn, I thought her dad was like 80 years old when I watched that movie as a child.

This one has been fucking awesome, I'm going to read ahead.
I like the cleaner crew, dire world design, the attempt at smiling, and the plunger. Fucking hilarious.
- Comment on When was the first time you cried over an anime? 6 days ago:
Cowboy BeBop or FMA before Brotherhood came out. There's a few emotional moments in both that'd probably still get me.
- Comment on I wonder how many people throughout history have confused Floaters with ghosts, UFOs, or other paranormal phenomena 1 week ago:
As a kid I could only notice what I now know to be floaters on a bright sunny beach and thought they were little bacteria or something floating on the surface of my eyes or something. Never jumped to ghost!

Yeah that lack of transparency is a bummer. Might be worth private messaging some of the devs listed here to inquire.

Daniel still has the RetroArch trademark registered in his personal name and continues to oversee the project and that's enough for me that he's still in a mangerial role, but you're right in that the last shitty thing I heard about him is fucking up netplay in 2022.

Dolphin is the poster child example of changing licences properly. It was a painful job just getting in touch with all the long inactive devs.

Defending a dick head dev they know nothing about or their history and insulting end users under false assumption. Overly self righteous.
Yep, reddit as fuck.

You know yourself better than us and I don't kbow your reasoning behind that "it's just not my thing" so I can't tell you either way.
I've never wanted kids and wish I had gotten a vasectomy earlier than 28. I'm 35 now. Looking at the world, I can't say it's done anything but constantly reaffirm the same conculsions I've drawn since I started thinking about sterilizing myself at 16.
I never changed my mind because my reasons weren't shallow. More of a reaction to my environment and the nightmare nature of reality most refuse to acknowledge, choosing delusions and unevidenced beliefs instead.

- Comment on Epstein puts my morality into perspective 1 week ago:
Reminds me of something. Martin Luther’s own writings, dating from 1531, in which he stated that Pope Leo X had:
“vetoed a measure that cardinals should restrict the number of boys they kept for their pleasure, otherwise it would have been spread throughout the world how openly and shamelessly the Pope and the cardinals in Rome practice sodomy.”
- Comment on Epstein puts my morality into perspective 1 week ago:
I've learned paedophiles seem to be naturally skilled with grabbing power throughout history and the present is no differnt. I'm more aware of that fact now.
I've also learmed a large percentage of humans actually are fine with their leaders raping children. One might think they're fine with it in general.

I ride in the parks after curfew bylaw and we pretend they've done their job for a moment where they "chase" me to an alley they can't drive through and I wait for them to fuck off for 2 minutes.
