Insane! I just picked up MH stories 1, MH stories 2, MH Rise, and Sunbreak all for less than half that price hahaha. I won’t even play rise again, I played it to death on the switch, but it was only a couple bucks more to add it to my collection!


Not related to STS2 or this topic, but if you really enjoyed Inscryption, I stroooongly urge you to play Daniel Mullins’ other big game, “The Hex.” I went in blind on the advice of someone when I was back on Reddit. They told me

“Don’t watch the trailer, don’t read anything, the weird graphics in the screenshots will make sense like a half hour in. It’s so cheap but it’s an incredible game.”

I picked it up, started it with my partner, and we marathoned it in a couple days. We could have gone faster but we took our sweet time, there were MULTPLE mind-blowing moments for us, and it has ties to the Inscryption world, too. Like nobody has played it compared to Inscryption and I find that insane. I started with Inscryption and loved it, it’s got more replay value than The Hex, but overall I think I’d rate The Hex a tad higher in overall game quality. It’s so… I can’t say anything more without spoiling stuff. Go in blind, it’s worth it!

If you or anyone else reading this heeds my advice, PLEASE let me know what you think of the game once you’re… like, into the game a bit and “get it.”

The Hex and “The Forgotten City” (a game NOT by Daniel Mullins) are two games I went into completely blind, wouldn’t have it any other way, and wish above all other games I could experience again with no memory of the games.

Please go play the Hex, everyone who liked Inscryption! (Also Danial has another game coming out this year or next and I am UNREASONABLY hyped and I don’t ever get hyped for any games ever anymore)


Loved BotW but I played it with a 400% durability mod, at 1440p/144fps with graphical mods to make it even more beautiful hahaha


My partner filled their DEX in Sun and Moon, the last game with every single pokemon!

I did not even come close hahaha. I focused on making an incredible IV/EV team instead.


The Forgotten City is one of my favorite games. Like, legitimately. I wish SO BADLY I could play it again without knowing anything about it. I went in absolutely blind and learning about the world, rules, everything, it was INCREDIBLE. Go, anyone reading this, go play it blind right now. It’s not like Skyrim at all, just the engine it’s built on… but damn. I wanna say more but I can’t!


Sheeeiiiit I’ve never heard of PKSM, thank you! I am installing that immediately.


I was restricted to my MacBook Air when I was in hospital, and that has the same specs as a 500USD Mac mini (m4, 16GB RAM). It plays 3D stuff like Valheim at 60FPS! The only issue is the more limited library compared to my Linux and Windows machines.


That would be nuts to me, I just heard of this new RE game this week!



I agree, but it sounds like this tech requires actual special hardware to pull off, rather than just a chip to say “you’ve got the right brand of video card,” which is always what G-Sync felt like (and is.)


Extremely measured response. This also highlights the importance of having backups of not just data, but important physical utilities as well. If being without a mouse for a month is a big problem (it would be for me, for sure) then having a backup (or multiple backups) on hand will almost inevitably prove invaluable someday. It has for me…


Yah, same on Safari. Only Focus deals with the page well. On Safari with a good adblocker, the pop up comes up and then the page says “page won’t load, click okay to find out why” and says “okay” or “cancel” which is obv shady ass malware or something.

PiHole kills the “level up your game” popup but it still loads the janky “click okay” shit in Safari… focus is the only mobile browser that can handle this horrible web site on iOS…


Site is okay in Firefox Focus, one site-related pop up to “level up your news game” or some bullshit but I’m not even going through my PiHole right now and there’s a ton of empty space where trash used to live

Quick edit: site is cancer is Safari even with Wipr 2, holy balls you’re right. I love Firefox focus hahaha


My partner and I got Palworld when it came out, played maybe five or six hours…. I tried again solo later and got to level 10 or 15. Just recently, my partner saw me playing Enshrouded and mentioned wanting to try Palworld again… we started it up and put ten hour into it in one day. Yesterday we picked it up again, and put another ten hours in. Having a really fun time.


That game is insidious. I started it one day, played six or seven hours a day for a week, hit 30ish hours, and beat the game. I couldn’t do anything else. I was so sucked in. Great game!


At first I read “Wired West” and got hopeful for a new person experiencing Dust for the first time.




Ball X Pit is PERFECT for being sick. I was recovering from hospital and marathoned it in a couple days. Beat it in 33 hours.


I dunno how well crafting/building games fit what you’re looking for, but I can jump into Valheim and just screw around for hours collecting and making stuff. The world isn’t populated like a grand theft auto, but it’s fun to just explore and mess around/build stuff in!


Everyone here should go to YouTube and watch the investigative journalism docu “Sunk Cost Galaxy”. It’s EXCELLENT. I think the dude making it had to stop because of legal threats, but the parts that are out are VERY enlightening.



As an avid KBM user, I played through “Returnal” with a Dualsense on my computer and wouldn’t recommend any other way! It uses the Dualsense’s triggers and haptics and it’s definitely made for controller play. I loved the game and would fully recommend it.



Heyo yee, I got my 1080 when Destiny 2 came out with a free game deal and kept the card for soooooo long (although fuck you, piece of shit Destiny 2 garbage game that made all of the worst or most predatory decisions ever and I hate you)

AAAAANYWAY the 1080 for so much longer than my previous cards have. Now I’m on a 3070ti and have no urge to upgrade.


In an old version of “Who Wants to be a Millionaire” for the computer, if you take too long before starting a game, Regis gets pissed at you and starts yelling at you. If you take a bit longer. He closes the game.


My hats and a weird patch got me a ton of free games and an Index so I have to agree with you. I have a dope ass piece of sick VR shit that I got for zero moneys.


I had too many unopened loot crates #1-20 and one day there was a weird patch and I sold them all to get a free Valve Index in 2020


Anything by Chilla’s Art. The Coffee Shop, Parasocial, The Bathhouse, Shinkansen 0, The Radio Station.

Also The Hex if you want a spooky mood but no jumpscares. Go in blind, it’s by Daniel Mullins who did Inscryption. It’s an incredible game. Ignore the screenshots on Steam and don’t watch the trailer, it’s five USD and the graphics make sense after playing for 30m.

If you want jump scares, At Dead of Night. My partner and I are horror aficionados and we cannot play that game.


Fuckin right?

ALSO can Mojang get my goshfuckin ALPHA account back that Microsoft deleted because I wasn’t paying attention to their bullshit during COVID and now it’s gone forever even if I make a Microsoft account which I will never do and now I have to pay money to Microsoft (which I will also never do and have never done)?

I’m pretty sure it was promised to me that I’d have Minecraft access forever because I bought an alpha account, but I guess now I have to give point to a horrible soulless corp to buy it again.


Yeah, the one that’s you beat and it’s like “NOPE SECOND HEALTHBAR”, then you beat it again and it’s like “UMMM TIME DOR ANOTHER HEALTH BAR”

I’m fairly early into the expansion, I’ve only beaten two legacy dungeons. I figured I’d just come back once I learned he’s options.


Fuck yeah! I don’t think I ever will. I’m down hundreds hours in of just fucking around and exploring and I keep hitting walls in the expansion. There’s a crazy tree bitch I can’t kill at the bottom of somewhere even with expert help. Aaaaaaaaa


Good riddance to any gar journalists who rate games on a 6/10 to 10/10 scale. I insinuated because sponsors, but fuck that.


I love that you dig it but don’t even call it by the right name, Balan Wonderworld, because it was named so poorly hahahaha


It just… feels better with KBM. and I’m sad about that. I wanna sit back, but it just feels crunchier with a controller.


I also feel Stardew works insanely better on KBM. Terraria too. I WANT to use controller and sit back and be comfy, but I just feel like I’m fiddling more and not as relaxed as point and click.


I REALLY love Enshrouded. It’s right under Valheim for me in games of its type.


64 is one of my favorite games of all time, BTN is objectively better though (with horrible loading times tho)

I love them both but BTN is just… more better, although Karen was MUCH better as a mean bitch in 64. She was so much cooler.
