Having a job sucks.

Not having a job wouldn’t suck if it wasn’t for the fact it usually means you also have no money.

Having no money sucks.

It would be cool beans to not have a job, but have money.

The last time I tried to play the originals, the controls were so awful… I would love to have modern style controls with it so much.

Also dune 2?

It’s what all modern day RTS games derive from.

Definitly the D.

• Doom.

• Dune 2.

• Disco Elysium.

• Dark Souls 1, 2 and 3 as well as Demon Souls.

• Dwarf Fortress.

• Dark Messiah.

• Diablo 1 and 2

• Day of Defeat

• Dead Space

• Death Stranding.

• Deep Rock Galactic.

• Deus Ex.

• Dying Light

And that’s just what I have in my Steam library ('cept Demon Souls obviously). There’s so many more D games that are also great.

Can you only use the in-game mod browser or something? Put the mod up somewhere else that Bethesda doesn’t control. It’s not like it’s hard to modify DOOM manually by dropping the files in the folder.

Additionally, extend the mod to include the CEO of ZeniMax as a Baron of Hell or Revenant.

“Buy game” where you own your digital copy and can do whatever you want with it.

We ain’t ever seein’ that one.

Can it play directly on the skin of my wrist?

IMO, a lot of them suck as games because they’re not really games in the traditional sense. They are experiences. Or even just art pieces. What annoys me most about them is they are usually touted and tagged as being “experimental” and yet don’t do anything new or unique or anything one could legitimately say is experimental.

Back in the day I would use NO CD cracks for games I legit owned because I just didn’t want to have to change discs all the time when switching games.

DRM tends to negatively affect paying customers more than pirates, so I could easily see legitimate owners still using cracks to remove DRM that is causing them issues in their legally obtained game.

The only thing you’ll miss out on is knowing the original story because it does change things a bit. Other than the main plot beats, it’s a totally different game.

Would they enjoy it as much as you enjoyed the original …? Maybe. Maybe not. There’s a whole slew of other reasons why FF7 was such a massive hit back in the day, and Rebirth does not have that kind of impact amidst other, modern games. Gotta remember that in 1997, FF7 was the most epic RPG available. Games these days all tend to have stories just as epic and large.

Yeah… Fuck that noise. I ain’t giving my login details to anyone; not even the people who run the thing I’m logging into.

Just for online play, no it isn’t worth it. Especially if most of the games you want to play are F2P; F2P games don’t need PS+ to play online.

But I do think the year of PS+ Premium, for access to the big library of games, is. For less than $200 you can get like $1000+ worth of value if you play a lot of games. If you were to just buy games outright, for the same cost of a year as PS+ Premium you’d only get 2 new games ($70 each) and maybe something on sale or an indie/AA game.

I don’t think it’s the raw part that’s the trend so much as big cookies are, and big cookies tend to be less cooked in the center.

But then again, raw cookie dough is delicious. 🤤

I fileshare because I have been conditioned by private trackers to always keep my ratio at a 1:2 minimum to stay an active member.

I am much more worried about seeing some consequence for uploading than I am for downloading. They tend to go for distributors more than leechers.

Oh yeah, Undertale is gnar. They actually did something new and different with the style, which is what I’m really about here. Octopath Traveller is another good one; the thing that it has going for it is the sheer number of options you actually have. It’s not just “attack, item, magic, defend, or run away.” It also has a lot of other Western RPG elements in it like actually having dialogue choices that matter making it an actual game with branching paths and not simply a story with some minimal interactive elements.

FF style? Hate 'em. I’m not a fan of the turn-based combat in those types of games either. Outside of boss fights/special enemies, you’re usually just spamming A to select the first option (attack) until you win. It gets hella old, hella fast and the random encounters happen every so many steps you take.

Fallout style, on the other hand, is awesome. More like Fallout 3 and beyond than 1 or 2 which are still a bit like FF in that you can’t see shit, you just walk the map and then FF battle music fade to black and pop into the encounter.

The Yakuza series does them well. They’re visible when wandering around, but they’ll also just appear at random all over the city walking down streets or chilling in alleys. You can’t always tell exactly what you’ll fight but you’ll know how to get around them if you don’t want to fight.

Of course I also like roguelikes. The entire game is a random encounter.

Ruby, ruby, ruby, ruby AWOO

Does it have to specifically be semi-realistic, have old guns, be military themed and in first person? Cuz I know some fine twin-stick sci-fi co-op shooters that can fill the same “shoot everything that moves with minimal effort” itch but they aren’t realistic, military themed or first person.

Like Synthetic 1 and 2 or The Ascent. I know of a couple WW2 games also similar but they completely lack co-op (or any kind of multiplayer for that matter) except for Jagged Alliance. And those games are old (except for the F2P thing that might not even be around anymore).

I’ve been calling it the Soap Opera of gaming since first playing Lost Judgment.

The games are about various yakuza/ex-yakuza just living their best lives basically. The main plot differs from game to game, but most of them are what I would call an “every game.” It’s got a little bit of everything; the majority of them are absolutely batshit insane side missions and mini games while the main game is a brawler/dialogue heavy RPG.

If you like video games and anime, this is a series for you because it’s basically both at once and every game is both self-contained and enjoyable on its own, but also references past games a lot and has impeccable continuity.

This one with pirates I have a feeling is going to be a lot like Infinite Wealth with Kasuuga being either one of if not the main character. He has a super wild imagination; every time you get into combat in Infinite Wealth, everyone changes to some fantastical creature or hero. Like you get into a fight with some drunk business men and suddenly they’re fire breathing zombies. It’s great.
