I’m not sure I even made it 1/10 of the way. I want to like the game but there was just nothing compelling me to continue or to pick it back up. The combat was especially disappointing. They captured the monotony of an rpg button masher without the ability to just zone out or multitask while playing. Also seems way to reliant on the moonerang.

Master of Orion I loved I and II. The third apparently bombed and reboots have failed.

Sim City I mean the real Sim city as Maxis would have made it. Not a cash grab, not a mobile game, not a “city painter” where any simulation takes a back seat to decorating with DLC assets.

Super Mario RPG no those other, spiritual successors do not count. They are fine games on their own but not the same.

Lost in Blue not the fanciest games, but I enjoyed them. There are plenty of modern games in the genre, but I haven’t found one that quite fits…

Locomotion was the official “spiritual” sequel, but I remember that game being horribly disappointing.

I hear he plans to bring in Patrick Rothfuss to pick up where he left off and also not finish the story.

Go further… hollow earth.

I liked Gensin Impact for the first few years, but last time I played it, that game was the worst example of this.

Teleport to location. Chat with npc for 5 minutes. Teleport to next location. Chat with another npc rehashing the first conversation for 5 minutes. Quick fight with trivial enemies. Teleport back to first npc Chat about random crap, slow walk to another npc, rehash the earlier conversation again, walk back to starting location, receive the most basic of rewards.

The game is 90% dialog of which very little is relevant or meaningful and none can be skipped. There is an auto advance option for conversations, but so many meaningless dialog prompts (with options are always the same semanticly) that it doesn’t work.

Of course this is all by design as the real goal is to sell you characters, not play a game.

If not for the BASIC examples in the old 3-2-1 contact kids magazines that I discovered worked on my elementary schools Apple II computers and then later QBASIC, I have no idea what I would be doing in life.

That was my gateway to a greater interest in computers and an eventual job in IT. And. I will always respect BASIC for it.

Not if aren’t familiar with control characters. Might was well be three seashells…

All eight badges. Time to take on the space elite four. I wonder who he picked for a starter.

So which OS is which religion? Right now I’m thinking unix=Judaism (older, predecessor to newer oses), linux=Christianity (distros=demominations, roots in unix.), macos=Islam(jobs is their prophet, roots in unix). Not sure about Windows. I guess maybe it could be Christianity and Linux Hindu or Buddhist…

Do you have any idea how many denominations of Christianity there are? And most of them are open source.

Earth only appears to be round when projected into 3D space…

Does this make the heroine a nano user? If so, some time in a vim type dungeon would probably do her some good.

Do they even make physical PC games anymore? Last ones I bought were either discs that immediately downloaded an updated copy of the whole game, or the box just contained a download code.

For the switch I buy physical, but it may be the last console where that makes sense.

I know he said half the universe, but that is in ideal condition. Maybe if you had the entire android or even just the head… I’m going to gave to get a special gauntlet made just to mount and display the thing. Best I can to is $3.50.

I used to try and genocide mos espa in the pc version. Even with cheats it was tricky because the game started to spawn in guards on the roofs armed with thermal detonators.

I had the same problem. Never noticed the drift until tears of the kingdom and then it made the game nearly unplayable. Decided to buy a pro controller only to discover it sold out nearly everywhere with many being sold online for scalper prices.

However, once I found one it was a game changer. The thing fits very well in my hands and works well. I don’t regret buying it, but will be pissed if it does not work with the next console.
