Maybe Valheim?

I had to look up the meaning and now I can only imagine the confusion this person must have felt, before he figured it out, lol.

Agreed 1000%. That game is phenomenal. It has made me laugh so hard I ended up crying, well and sometimes I was just crying. An emotional roller coaster, superb writing.

My husband was playing it and I thought the game looked terrible, but he kept saying I really should play it, and I can’t put into words how fucking happy I am that I chose to try it. Can’t believe I almost missed out on it. Truly a masterpiece.

It’s… without a doubt one of the best games I’ve ever played. Just hope you won’t buy it, publishers don’t deserve it.

If only for the soundtrack, it’s worth playing once, at least. It’s so haunting and beautiful. The first time I played DOS1, I knew I would love it the moment I heard the music at startup. RIP Kirill, his music was so beautiful. Also nice they put his music on the piano in a certain evil dude’s house in DOS2!

Maybe I should replay it again. Just like OP I’m having a bit of a BG3 withdrawal issue.

Rimworld.

Over the years, on and off, I’ve put 2k hours into that game, and I’ve never, ever built the ship or helped the High Stellarch or found the Archo Nexus. Never even gotten close. I love building bases and growing colonies, and with all the DLC+mods there’s an endless amount to do, but yeah… doubt I’ll ever actually get to the end.

I went back to playing Slay the Spire for a bit, since it’s almost N7 Day, but I might just replay Disco Elysium in stead. After ME, maybe it’s time to try Starfield? Have seen too many negative reviews to really want to pay full price for it, but we’ll see.

Oh the graphics don’t bother me at all, the Legndary edition holds up fine, I think. But ME1 has the best story in the trilogy, it’s why I still play it. I still remember the first time I played it. Being made a Spectre, speaking to Sovereign, the attack on the Citadel. How scary and unknowable the Reapers were. Hanging up on the Council. ;) The main storyline is better than 2 and 3 combined, imo. However, you are right that ME1 has some issues. While the Legendary Edition fixed a lot of the issues (and it does play smoothly, I do think), there are some things in ME1 that have become so tedious I don’t even do them anymore. Mainly talking about the exploration of unchartered worlds and the terrible handling of the Mako, or how every outpost looks the same, every mine looks the same, with the exact same layout. Makes it feel way more dated than it feels if you only go through the story. Not to mention the headache that is inventory management and swapping weapons and mods and grenades, turning everything into omni-gel because the stupid mini-game is even more annoying than inventory management!

For this reason I made a few save games that I 100%ed (one paragon, one renegade, different romances, etc). And I backed those up. Now, whenever I play ME1 I only do the main storyline and some side quests, and ignore the rest, lol. Then in ME2 I import one of the files I saved. Cut out all the tedium. ;)

Mass Effect trilogy.

Or maybe Bioshock.

Either/both.

Very late edit: Deus Ex. I still play it every once in a while and while the graphics are terrible, it’s a lot better with GMDX and you get used to it very quickly. That game is still a masterpiece.

Damn.

I can’t remember ever experiencing something like this…? Is it possible to forget about it, like a dream? Barely ever remember dreams. Or maybe some people don’t experience these hallcinations?

Yeah, it’s years. I always keep my phone as long as possible, but I was forced to replace my previous phone because my bank app was going to stop functioning on Android version X and lower. My current phone is now 4 years old and I hope I won’t have to replace it any time soon. I hate setting up new devices. :p

How would this even work? How are they going to stop brigading, bots, low effort spam crap for upvotes, massive reposting, etc? How will this actually increase quality of content?

Also: this would mean giving reddit your actual information, right? How else are they going to pay you? Or are they going to try using crypto and nfts?

It sounds like a terrible idea to me, tbh. Maybe they should start with paid moderators to deal with all the extra spam, crossposting, brigading and bots that will result from this move.

You can think the mother and daughter should face consequences AND at the same time think it’s beyond disgusting that facebook even has this info to begin with AND that they handed it over so easily.

The problem isn’t that “facebook followed the law” – it’s that they knowingly created a situation where they could follow the law to begin with. If they would stop collecting so much data and just encrypt their chats, there would already be less of an issue.

I think people have the tendency to think like “well I have nothing to hide, so who cares?” or “well in this case I agree with what happened, so it’s fine.” But laws get changed all the time, government changes all the time. And when a dictator at some point changes some laws, suddenly facebook is ‘following the law’ by giving law enforcement information on who is atheist, or gay, or what books you like, what your political opinions are, etc. They’d still be “following the law” – but just because something is law doesn’t make it right and imo it’s terrifying that companies who have so much money and power (and with it you would hope: responsibility) don’t seem to have any scrupules regarding working with government/LE.

r/interestingasfuck still doesn’t have moderators. It’s been closed for 18 days now.

I check the sub every few days to see if they have mods yet, we’ll see what hapens. :p

I guess it’s possible, but what good would that do reddit? That’s millions people who aren’t going to be browsing that subreddit anymore, and presumably at least some of them aren’t using any ad blockers, so they’d be losing revenue…

Seconded, unequivocally! Disco Elysium was such an experience.

I remember the first time I saw it… it looked so terrible at first glance. My husband was playing it and he said it was so good, but when I came over to check I was like… “ehhh if you say so.” I mean, let’s be honest, a casual glance might make it seem like it’s some crappy game.

But my husband was adamant, so I got the game too and I’m sooooooo happy I did. It’s honestly one of the (if not the!) best written games I’ve played. The monologues are beautiful, the dialogues are superb. This game has made me laugh so hard I had tears running down my cheeks, and it has made me cry for real. It’s funny, it’s tragic, it’s melancholic, it’s remarkably ‘deep’ and it touches on so many important subjects in a non-lecturing way.

Anyone who wants to experience the entire rainbow of emotions should definitely buy this. It’s brilliant.

Edit just to say: You can never go wrong with Slay the Spire. I’ve spent hours upon hours playing it, off and on, and it’s great!

r/interestingasfuck has been without mods for 2 weeks now. It’s just so idiotic. They remove all the mods and then… don’t replace them? Now there hasn’t been a post in 2 weeks on a sub with 11+mil members.

I wonder if they just forgot about that particular sub?

Holy shit. Well, that’s not dystopian at all.
