Start with HL2 on normal difficulty. Then do 2E1 and 2E2 on normal difficulty.

Then repeat all of that on hard.

Then you’ll be where I am. Never bothered with 1.

“Oh, I thought I was coding in Python. Oops!”

Continues coding in C++

I assume one OLED for the family and then a portable per person

Stop. Don’t buy anything yet.

What do you mean “one portable”? Do you mean a non-OLED Switch? Do you mean a Switch Lite? Do you mean a pair of Joy-Cons? Do you mean a single Joy-Con?

My family has 3 Switches. I bought a launch system, my wife bought another of that type, gave it to our kid, then bought an OLED for herself.

So, you don’t need more Switches than the number of people (unless you’re planning to host Animal Crossing treasure islands, which, you’re probably not).

We had a Switch Lite, but it was redundant since we each had a regular/OLED, so we sold it.

Why not just start with one and go from there? Get the OLED if you’re planning to primarily play handheld, or if faster loading times are super important to you.

… why?

He’s dead, Sam!

I felt the first Mass Effect was cozier than the sequels, though I never finished the sequels.

“Catch creatures to use to fight” is a broad enough theme that it should be fair use, and has other precedent. For example, it was done in Bomberman Generation. Why didn’t Nintendo sue Konami?

2 is the only one I completed. I enjoyed it.

The graphical shortcomings might have something to do with there being 100 players in the match at once.

This chapter/season added jetpacks, which are very fun.

And still no Half-Life 3

It’s the same game though

Spear of Destiny or Rise of the Triad would have been better picks

Heard of that one a few times

If you’re open to silly casual games, Untitled Goose Game

Also, I heard Cult of the Lamb was getting a co-op update

What did CoD 4 introduce that Halo 3 hadn’t already done 2 months prior?

If you want to talk about “how do I get up there” in a 3d environment, Doom did it before TR.

Low effort? OP doesn’t say anything about what they dislike.

100 golden walnuts was enough

I felt like II had very few modern segments and was worth it

… are we playing different games, or are you a troll?
