Civ 7 is steam deck verified and releases Feb 11.

Don’t ask me how I know that…

Hello! As someone who fell into the rabbit hole years ago, I would like to inform/warn you that “roguelite deckbuilder” is a genre.

Sorry / Your Welcome.

Balatro skewed my numbers

There’s actually lots of foul language while playing Balatro, but it all comes from the person playing, not the game itself.

I feel that making a game exclusive can sometimes make better games, because you’re making one game instead of 2 or 3. Even with games that are on multiple systems, one version always ends up being “the definitive”, and the other versions are not up to the same standard because they’re put out just to appeal to a wider audience. Focusing on one system let’s you put everything into making your game great instead of making it accessible.

I was on ante 7 with a build exploiting Pareidolia, and didn’t realize I drew The Mark as the boss blind.

Whole deck disabled 😭

Balatro is really fun until it pisses you off because of a bullshit draw and you stop playing for months…

That’s just one mod. Every character gets Tits and dong.

I have a bunch of coupons for hotdogs that I got years ago, because the were like $1 for 20 hotdogs.

The problem with it for me was that it has all these branching stories, but no cohesive overarching story. It was more like 8 separate stories than 8 chapters of the same story.

I’ll admit I didn’t finish it, maybe it comes together at the end, but I was bored of it and not having fun anymore.

I, for one, Welcome our nursing home LAN party overlords…

I’m about halfway through it and it’s great. They nailed the storytelling, the environment feels like Portal, and the puzzles are engaging.

I rage quit a puzzle I was stuck in a loop on, when Hades 2 went early access and haven’t gone back yet.

To learn Kingdom Hearts lore going in blind you’d need an autistic kid who’s hyper-fixated on it, a couple cases of monster energy, and a weeks worth of LSD micro doses.

That should get you up to speed on about 50% of it.

Screw ray tracing, can it do Body Harvest with a decent draw distance?

Those weren’t bugs, those were “Skinnies”, humanoid aliens.

They showed up in the animated series, but not the movie.

WrestleMania 2000 on N64 had a bug that would randomly delete all saved data.

The difference between StarCraft and Brood War is staggering.

I miss getting that big of an upgrade to things. Not to mention the level editor and the endless river of user created content.

Most of the time there are accoplishments. Sometimes there’s The rouge like curse of failing the first level 17 times before totally face-rolling the entire game while trying to unlock an achievement and getting stuck at $357…

I’m not bitter…

I’d love to see Magus’s rise to power in the middle ages as well.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM…

Still haunts my nightmares

The original Hollow Knight still holds up so I doubt there’s a chance of the sequel feeling “dated” unless they do something terribly wrong.

Pokemon didn’t grow up with it’s player base. They try and keep the storylines Kid friendly, when I’d guess 70%+ of players are adults.

Black & White probably had the most “Adult” narratives of the series, delving into the slavery/forced labor a bit. I’d love to see the games delve into some more adult themes, but I doubt it will happen.

I got Brotato on sale a couple weeks ago on steam and I’m terrible at it but still having a good time.

Got 3 victories under my belt & a bunch of unlocks, though. Any pointers for a “noob”?

I’ve read the books, played the games & seen the things that have been “removed” from canon, but are still referenced. The fact that you had to state “Current Disney Timeline” shows that there are multiple, and the current scatter point happens in a retcon.

The "Star Wars Timeline"is about as straightforward as the Zelda timeline.

True.

I’ve had better luck w/ Beat Saber “multiplayer” in a party type setting where there was turns being taken by 5+ people.

Keep talking & nobody explodes is perfect in VR, though, because the diffuser is in their own world.

In the realm of Rhythm games and movement input: Beat Saber.

A bit of an initial investment for the VR setup, but well worth it.

MegaMan Xis what I think of for the ghost tutorial.
