I checked my account through the site and they don’t seem to have shit other than my current display name. When did they start collecting this data?

I regularly emulate Switch games on my RoG Ally Z1E, and it pulls it off so fucking well, I haven’t touched my Switch since I got the thing (it easily runs every title I’ve thrown at it at 60fps+higher res, plus I have the ability to mod games if I need to.)

I can’t imagine it’ll be too difficult for them to emulate Switch 2 games, assuming Nintendo don’t catch on to emulation developers too early.

imo Tooie it’s vastly inferior to the first game, and feels like it has no concrete identity as to what kind of game it wants to be. Banjo-Kazooie even to this day is a tight, defined, and perfectly balanced game that genuinely holds up, but I’ve never been able to get through Tooie without becoming either bored, frustrated, or both.

I get that Rare were trying to push the boundaries for video games at the time, but it just didn’t translate to a better experience.

I thought you were exaggerating, but after checking it out, it really does feel like a mid-late 00’s website, and goddamn do I fucking miss it. Everything online these days is flat, overly-simplified, absolutely corporate and sanitized to fuck and back. I feel like, on an atomic level, I’m closer to a frown than a neutral expression when browsing most of the internet these days.

Also Subnautica itself fucking rules, good to see their website has just as much effort put into it.

1980’s.

It couldn’t possibly be the fact that the game is just mid as all fuck, and people are far enough past the honeymoon phase that they’re finally having to accept it.

I love the passionate anger.

Yeah, agreed. This is a very spicy take, but Mario Kart 64 also disappointed me after going back to it as an adult. It just… doesn’t play well compared to the newer titles, especially with how good the gameplay in 8 is. It was amazing for its time, but things have absolutely improved since then.

Enjoyable exploration at the very least. It’s the one thing Bethesda has always excelled at, but I knew Starfield was going to be a massive disappointment full of copy+pasted POI’s as soon as they mentioned “1000 planets” and procedural generation. So not only does Starfield fall flat on its face in the story and wooden dialogue departments (imo, all their games suffer here), it isn’t even able to save itself with the kind of immersive and rewarding exploration experience you’d have expected Bethesda to at least provide as they did with their previous games by merit of a handcrafted, curated map.

I’m glad the honeymoon period is over with this game and people are finally seeing it for the half baked, outdated, and bland exercise in mediocrity that it actually is.

I’d still prefer a Pixel running GrapheneOS with aggressively-restrictive permissions.

DKC2 has one of the most beautifully-melancholic soundtracks of all time imo. I was enamored by it as a child, and as a young adult, realized how influential it was for me during the time in my life I made music myself. David Wise really is something else.

Coles isn’t small. They’re part of what is essentially a duopoly in Australia.

This is happening in Australia, a country almost universally controlled by the ‘left wing’ Labor party on both federal and state levels. The sooner you realize that literally no politician gives a shit about their people, the sooner we can move on from this bullshit left vs. right shitshow and start directing our anger at those responsible for the state of the world (hint; it’s every politician with any amount of power and any large enough corporation. The cunts are all best mates, left wing or right wing.)

Never forget who the real enemy is. We’re playing so fucking effectively into their little game, and they know it. If only we did.
