That’s a very steep drop-off!

I’m being redirected to a poorly translated version of the article automatically without a way to get back to the original.

IGN can go get fucked.

Dr. Disrespect huh? What’s the title of his dissertation?

Fingers crossed for Ultima Underworld 3.

This. I’m still playing Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri.

Now post one after!

I agree with your general point about the economics of hobbies, but I’m not sure it applies here.

If you are sensible about it gaming is, in real buck-per-hour prices, one of the cheapest forms of entertainment available.

I had some serious demographic questions to get to 1/3. 26% sounds way more reasonable.

To be fair, I’m starting to fear that all the fun bits of human jobs are the ones that are most easy to automate.

I dread the day I’m stuck playing project manager to a bunch of chat bots.

You should see 52% of the first version of my code.

It doesn’t have to be right to be useful.

I was amazed at how good a reflection it is on the nature of investigative police work, and what makes a detective a detective.

It’s not the gun or the badge (you start off without either), it’s not the innate authority (you start off in a humiliating predicament) it’s not being able to call upon the might of the state (your fellow police officers barely bother picking up the phone).

No, what makes a detective - maybe even the best detective on the force - is the willingness to do the work. To observe. To inspect. To interrogate. To pound the pavement day after crappy day. To completely give oneself up to the task of figuring out what the hell happened, and follow the clues wherever they lead.

It’s probably the best cop game ever made.

Disco Elysium.

I missed it when it came out, but it’s an amazing game. An amazing amazing game.

I love love love this game.

I have no expectation of my 1060 being able to run the next generation of games. It has a good run, but it’s really old by now.

I feel like I bought at least six of them.

I really really liked ME1 and 2. Sure, there are some nits to pick, especially with the act 2 gameplay (stupid mako, silly scanner), but they are great games.

… and now I know the only compass that I need …

I love BTS. There’s something liberating about playing carefree rebel Chloe that I never managed to tap into when I was playing Max.
