  The problem is you’re seeing it as punishment, when instead it’s a necessary journey on the path of enlightenment.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What free to play games can run smoothly on my old laptop?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Gog has a small list of free games. Some can even be modded further, like Daggerfall.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve discontinues the entry-level Steam Deck, considerably raising the starting price⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, they were gonna phase it out even before the price hike was a thing.

  To be portrayed by Pedro Pascal.

  What, you didn’t see the pretty flower at the end?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some good games to play while sick?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Something very chill. Your brain needs rest, more so if you’re running a fever.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No offense, but your history makes you seem like an ad bot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Divinity - Cinematic Announcement Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Gore porn, yay!
  This trailer could be interpreted as a fundamentalist vegan ad. “Beware the sin of flesh in all its forms, for it shall bring forth the wrath of the elder gods!! Yield and repent! Return to Floral and partake in their flowering seeds!”

  Fool. Just say the previous one was Bruce Wayne, you’re Batman.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony cracks down on Concord custom servers, issues DMCA takedowns on gameplay videos⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it’s more to do with its ongoing clash against Tencent. If they allow this to keep going, it may damage their chances on that side as well.

  Bosnians, probably.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Winter burrow SBI controversy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As per my understanding, Sweet Baby Inc was/is a DEI consultant that would advise on accurate portrayal of minorities in games that wished to have them represented.

  How accurate they were/are or how much their input is being used, I can’t say, however the easily swayed have taken to the idea they’re an evil shadowy cabal that mind controls companies and has them add brainwashing techniques meant to bring about the downfall of western society (the MAGAts that is).

  “permanently”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨To the rapidly aging person reading this: GameFAQs is 30 years old, and people are sharing their memories of the venerable guide hub⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As i recall, the files were user submitted so it was more of a tacit consent of plagiarism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨To the rapidly aging person reading this: GameFAQs is 30 years old, and people are sharing their memories of the venerable guide hub⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember when Gamefaqs was hated for stealing individual creators’ walkthroughs. Obviously, that didn’t pan out.

  Disagree, but then again I’m not the intended audience.

  The dream is playing music on the strings of reality.
  A phone is just a pitstop.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly Recommendstions Thread: What are you playing this week?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve had Airship: Kingdoms Adrift for a while and gave it a go.
  It’s got neat broadside naval combat in the air and you can customize components in ports. There’s a small chance to capture enemy ships under certain conditions and make yourself a fleet or send trade convoys on their own from port to port.

  It has a main mission though and kinda acts like a tutorial so, not sure how far along one has to follow it to unlock everything.
  Butt the mission rewards are kind of silly. Gave me some warehouse plans to increase port storage, but no idea when I’ll get to use it or where, if at all.
  Need resources probably, but i didn’t get that far and the costs are way above what i can poach.
  Then gave me a piece of equipment too big for the ship I have, so again, useless at the moment.

  Anyway, feels off. Maybe I’ll get back at it, maybe not… Who knows.

  It was sold off to venture capitalists. So obviously it’s going to get much worse before finally dying off in a ditch somewhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When Everything Is Fake, What’s the Point of Social Media?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Escapism.

  There was an episode in Stargate SG-1 where they find some pretty lights in a temple and they couldn’t take their eyes off it.
  The longer you feeded the addiction, the easier it made you forget about everything else, until you forgot to eat, drink or sleep.

  Not saying social media has the same properties but.. “It’s fun”.

  It also provided the udders.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  GOG isn’t really recommended for games still being actively worked on. At heart it’s meant for complete games ready for archiving.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hey Lois, remember the time when it all came tumbling down? That was sweet.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Is this part of those OpenAI porn ads?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It may be that some games are dropping the ball and so players are looking to flock somewhere else.

  For example, Helldivers 2 has some loud complainers who advertised both Battlefield 6 and Arc Raiders as potential alternates.
  Word of mouth can do a lot of damage if the mouth is loud and persistent enough.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 | Review Thread⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Guess it’s really Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2: The Masquerade instead.
