While it is an uplifting game that I highly recommend, probably don’t play Spiritfarer if you have anxiety around death or dying…

Obviously, Chrono Trigger is an all-time classic with some good endings and character building. I’d recommend that too.

Perhaps RDR2 is a good idea also? You’re a part of a gang, so you’re always near or close to a camp where there are people to interact with.

This is why people don’t like Lemmy.

Star Trek is awful for this, but this conversation:

Subject Matter Expert: Oh no, the defences are down

Captain: How long do you need to fix them?

SME: Two hours

Captain: You have one

No, motherfucker, the person that you fucking PAY for their expertise on this very subject said it would take two hours!

Management is full of these cunts that think they can just dictate a timeline and have people that actually know their shit dance to their tune.

For those of us that miss the lore and story/atmosphere of this games, absolutely.

Don’t get me wrong, Starfield has made me truly worried about the next installment, and I truly believe that milking Skyrim has ultimately left Bethesda in a position where open world gaming just leapfrogged them. The likes of TOTK and Elden Ring have absolutely shattered what they can show to deliver in a supposedly improved generation.

All I can hope is that Bethesda really look at the feedback they received, and take the time to make the necessary changes to their engine. That alone might be enough to at least give a retro feel to the games. I’ll still eagerly await them, but my hopes for them being GOTY are long gone.

Well…except the next installations of Fallout and Elder Scrolls. Let’s be honest, that’s what Microsoft were really buying, and neither are anywhere near a release.

It has essentially killed Harvest Moon as the established farm simulator for relaxed gaming.

If you know someone that loves games, but hates fighting or quick skill-based stuff, they will lose hundreds of hours to this game.

To be honest, a 50% attendance record sounds pretty good. I’m really sorry to hear about this though, the spread looks great, and anyone that puts a watch party on for All In is going to put on a good time.

What time was it on for you guys? I went the first year and had an amazing time, but sadly had work this year. Perhaps you should make the pilgrimage over next year for Forbidden Door?

People were saying this 20+ years ago because goths could talk online in chat rooms, see other goths on TV, had specific nights in goth-friendly bars, etc. It was always a mixture of both - unique, but not enough.

I switched from .local to .honk and I’m never looking back.

How about instead of anarchist cosplay where we all pretend that we’re going to petrol bomb billionaire estates, we push for people with excessive incomes to be taxed at a much higher threshold?

The fact that there are billionaires just shows that the system is hilariously flawed. Billionaires would rather you sit around and make memes about them than actually push for some fucking change…
