  Maybe I need another coffee but I’m a little confused.

  So this site (named after a previous writing practice workshop that shut down after a series of scandals) is trying to do the same thing but isn’t actually hosting anything and is more or less pointing to a Reddit megathread with like over a dozen other writing practice workshops?

  This is a weirdo complaint but one thing I don’t like that some modern games keep doing is adding a lot of visual/texture noise by having a lot of details.

  Sometimes its OK, but sometimes it gets difficult to tell what’s going on in the chaos of a fight. Combined with particle effects, reflections, and the DLSS or FSR or whatever and it gets to be a bit of an eye strainer.

  Halos usually pretty good about strong enemy colors and easy to read room layouts but a few glimpses of this have me raising an eyebrow.

  I really enjoyed the Sims 2 on the Xbox because it was co-op and I was eager to see how they handled co-op in future games.

  Then I found out that they just never did co-op again and I was incredibly disappointed.

  I quite liked Fields of Mistria though its still early access.

  KB/M is a little easier for placing things but its not at all bad with a gamepad.

  I got several, I’ve found that some people really think about what I like in a game and nail a recommendation and some people just recommend things they liked, regardless how I feel on them.

  The big ones would be Breath of the Wild and Helldivers 2.
