Playing this game for the first time and it’s very impressive.

I’ve read that the game world is estimated to be 5x larger than Fallout 4’s, and 3x larger than The Witcher 3. That’s insane.


feel disgust when your beliefs are challenged

I remember feeling this in church as a kid. Know what I did? I asked myself, “why would I react that way? If this is true, then it should be able to withstand challenges, and if it’s not then it is not worth believing.”



Maybe they’ve gotten better at filtering that shit out in the past couple of years, but can tell you with certainty that I’ve watched at least a half dozen shows and movies based entirely on this and have enjoyed them. My memory is shit so I can’t seem to think of any off the top of my head right now. If any come to me I will update this comment.

It’s usually media that portray the black experience in America, or that shows US history (particularly slavery and/or Jim Crow) in a negative light. Sometimes it’s just because it’s about strong women. Or, in their minds, it makes men look bad (because portraying the objectively shitty things men do is apparently biased)

For examples of the religious BS, look up anything Jim Caveizal has been in throughout the last decade or so.


Also, the only thing that comes from including more people of color, LGBTQ+ people, etc., in media is more variety in characters and possible story lines. How is that ever a bad thing?


Also I’m pretty sure that the black samurai in the game is an actual real, historical figure. Or at least based on one.

Which makes it all so much stupider. It’s not even about race swapping, it’s literally people upset that the main character of a video game is black.


I, unironically, use this as a way of finding movies, TV shows and games that I might like.

If you go on RottenTomatoes and look at the critic score vs. the user score, you can really tell a lot.

For example, if a movie has a very low critic score, and a suspiciously high user score, it’s most certainly religious drivel created to push a narrative. If you click on the reviews, it will confirm it. Every time.

Conversely, if a movie or show has a very high critic score, and a suspiciously low user score, it’s going to be because of conservative snowflakes getting triggered. Again, reading the user reviews confirms it every time.

In the case of the latter, it almost always means I will enjoy the content. So I will seek out movies and shows that have that discrepancy.



I was just reading some of the reviews on Steam the other night (because it’s my favorite game), and was pleasantly surprised to see that I was not alone in that view.

People who know, know.


Once it clicks, there is no feeling like it. Incredible game.


YES.

Sekiro is my favorite game ever and I wish they’d make a sequel.

It’s so good that it ruins other games for paling in comparison.



This game is cool and nobody ever talks about it.

3D platformer meets Pikmin plus Honey I Shrunk the Kids.






Morrowind is over 20 years old, and there hasn’t been a FO game with compelling plot lines since New Vegas. You are living in the past.


I’ve played through DS several times and would expect to get it finished in about five hours

Do you think your experience here is at all the norm?


I have distinct memories of my buddy completely demolishing the level with the skeletons who play their own bones like xylophones, on the hardest difficulty.

Great music


I haven’t used PCSX in a while, but I remember those settings being obscure af if you’re not like an expert on VRAM and shit. I would just try everything until I found the best settings for the game lol. Thankfully you can save settings per-game I believe.


I believe a Suikoden 1 & 2 remaster is coming out soon.


Hell yes, Gitaroo Man is fucking dope… Had a friend in high school who was like obsessed with that game, he got really good. I tried it again recently on an emulator and holy shit it gets hard after a few levels.



Nah, just bring a pen and paper to the news stand and copy down cheats from “Tips and Tricks” magazine by hand.

Did people actually call those numbers? We couldn’t afford that shit.


To be fair, the entire thing is an ad disguised as an article.



I’ve been playing a lot of Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 on PS5 the past few days, and couldn’t even tell there was an outage.



I wish more developers would take advantage of the insane features of the DualSense. It’s sad that a free tech demo does a better job than 90% of the games.


Yeah I think it was kind of like a tech-demo for the Steam Deck. I had fun with it, but I truly don’t remember a single moment from it. These screenshots look completely foreign to me lol.

To be fair, I was probably high when I played it.


There was some kind of high resolution patch, I think? Try googling “the sabateur resolution patch”. I remember there being some jank at first, but once I got it tweaked it worked just fine.

Honestly, I don’t remember specifically, sorry. Have you tried GE Proton?


Did some tinkering to get this working on my Linux pc last year. Only played a few hours, but seemed like a fun game (and who doesn’t love fucking up some Nazis?)


Anyone who’s looking for a great new(ish) cozy game, check out Natsu-Mon.

It would probably help to watch the Action Button review of Boku no Natsuyasumi for some context (yes, I know it is 6 hours long lol… but it’s a really good video).



Hold up, so they went from making the Wolfenstein games, to making an Indiana Jones game where (according to people here) you beat up Nazis?

Based studio…



I can just see the NSA nerds now, “Sir, we have seen a severe uptick in downloads and installations of the video game ‘Woflenstein’… We must do something to stop the propaganda!”

Edit: You know what, I’m gonna leave the typo because I think it makes it even more funny.


More and more, I’ve been coming back to Inglorious Basterds as possibly being QT’s best film.

It is just so goddamn good.


So it sounds like the problem with the game is shitty writing. Not anything about it being “political.”

Breaking the fourth wall, and/or getting meta is nothing new to video games (or like, literally any other form of media). Some people like it, some people don’t.

But that is not a political issue…
