- Comment on Why are we not getting stress relief games where we take our stresses out on normal people? 1 day ago:
Technically the final level of Manhunt 1 counts.
Rich dude lets a criminal on death row on the loose in some “TV sets”, with orders to kill everyone in sight. When the criminal survives the series finale, he fights through the cops and the rich guy’s personal guard, and chops the rich guy to pieces with a chainsaw.

Don’t worry. My feathers keep me safe from cuts.

So? Both options work great for me.
If a good alternative to Youtube is created, then I’ll use that. Great.
If a good alternative to Youtube never arises, and Youtube is constantly enshittified further, that’s great too. The human race deserves to suffer, so this option is also great.
- Comment on YouTube adds new hurdles for ad blockers, and there's currently no way around it 2 days ago:
Fine with me. Youtube needs some decent competition.
- Comment on YouTube adds new hurdles for ad blockers, and there's currently no way around it 2 days ago:
considering that is the site’s revenue (specifically the targeted ads based on user data)
I actually pay for youtube premium
pick one

That’s the old way of doing news.
The new way of doing news is generating news that favors the news reporters’ financial backers.

Sent the review! It’s good stuff.
- Comment on I Live In Eastern Europe And I'm Making A Creepy Game About Authoritarianism (Demo Is Live) 6 days ago:
I’m playing through it now - I went through the playtest, and I like the new intro. I also want to let you know that the game was muted until I opened and closed the settings screen, for some reason.

That’s another Russian facebook, yes.
Telegram I feel is a mix between Facebook and Twitter. It doesn’t really push far enough in either direction to be a copy paste clone.

It’s a Russian copy of facebook. Non-Russians hate it for that reason alone.
- Comment on Remedy's new CEO is a former sports betting guy and EA executive who aims to 'scale Remedy in a way that builds lasting value' 1 week ago:
I predict a Control gacha game.
A 50/50 soft pity at 100 pulls, with hard pity at 200. Pull your favorite Control character on the limited banner! Note the limited banner character won’t transfer to standard once the banner ends. Pity also will not carry over.

Well there is that one nsfw forum that is VERY active. Said forum also provides a list of file hosters that have escaped enshittification.
Those guys pirate the shit out of Japanese games but official nsfw game developers sometimes go there to advertise.

2009 onwards.
- Comment on What are some good games to play while sick? 2 months ago:
If you’re majorly sick, I recommend playing a visual novel. They usually do not require much movement or thinking on your part; most only need you to click you mouse or tap spacebar to advance. You can look up a VN that suits your needs here: Link If you want a VN that has a particular genre or theme I can give more specialized suggestions.
Aside from that, you can play some simple automation or puzzle games. territorial.io works well for this. shapez 2 is also a good option.

Sorry about that. Fixed.

Oh, that’s me. Microsoft gave me backdoor access to your computer so I can play against you.
- Comment on 2025 Game Awards Results Discussion 2 months ago:
If HL3 ever comes out, it will be a looter shooter with a strange story. In the time skip between 2 and 3, the rebels and Combine sued for peace because it turns out the Combine really are here to help humanity somehow. And most of the game is spent assisting the Combine with invading the very evil Race X homeworld.
- Comment on Any games I missed in the last 21 months? 2 months ago:
I specialize in finding obscure good games.
Alice’s World - Mix between Doki Doki Literature Club and an adventure game.
Astro Colony - Satisfactory in space.
Days Without Incident - Fun small game make by the same guys who made Nightmare House 2.
I also recommend keeping an eye on Fractured Blooms, The Oversight Bureau, Cycle of Struggle Ardengrad, and Advent Dawn. They’re only demos at the moment though.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
I personally stick to searching by specific tags to find the hidden good stuff.
- Comment on steam vs gog, which game store to buy from? 2 months ago:
I use a decision tree to determine which platform to buy from, by going down this list and selecting the first platform that fits my requirements.
- Steam: If the full game is on there, buy. If the game needs an extensive patch to provide all the content, buy from another platform.
- itch: If the full game is on there, buy.
- GOG: If the full game is on there, buy. If the game needs an extensive patch to provide all the content, buy from another platform.
- JAST USA: If the full game is on there, buy.
- DLSite: If the full game is on there, buy.
- DMM: This platform is annoying to buy from since they dislike foreigners. If the full game is on there, buy.
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 2 months ago:
I nominate DLSite and JAST.

- Comment on Palworld dev isn’t impressed by "so-called" AAA, prefers indies since they "include the kind of systems you can’t find in other games" 2 months ago:
I don’t really do racing games, but Distance is the best one I’ve played.
- You get community maps from the workshop.
- There are some very cool jumps to do.
- You can also train your gripfly skills. Basically, it’s where you flip your car and use the thrusters to fly. Gripfly is a useful technique, but hard to master.
- An excellent soundtrack.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
I know of a major gameplay innovation in the past 5 years, though it’s incredibly unpopular to many.
AI2U features NPCs that are run by Azure AI. The goal is to make the ChatGPT NPC do what you want so you can solve the escape room.
This gameplay feature hasn’t really caught on, but I’ve only seen it be used recently.

When you lose your job in the US, you lose your health insurance. You’re screwed if you need an operation done when you’re unemployed. And people in a union tend to be the first to go for talking back.
