Amazing season. The only thing holding it back (and the only reason I might hold back on hyping a season 2) is the fact that New Vegas isn’t canon anymore. What the fuck guys.
!I was open to the possibility that things might have gotten to hell after NV, and personally always considered the DUST mod as canon because of it. But apparently they moved the fall of the NCR back to 2277, when F3 took place, before the events of NV. I know people are saying “but it could mean decline!”, but its still weird considering that the NCR we see in NV is still powerfull and active, not a society near collapse. No NCR character in the game ever makes any reference to Shady Sands being abandoned or in ruins or fallen. Its still talked as the heart of the nation. The entire objective of the NCR with Hoover Dam is to provide cheap electriciy to Shady Sands as well. And making New Vegas be a destroyed ruin is still equal to retcon, since it means nothing in the game has any impact whatsoever. No choice is canon, since it doesnt matter:, it all blew up a second later!<
They decanonized FNV by having BoS nuke the dam at the First Battle of Hoover Dam. Cannot recommend; I refuse to recognize this timeline. Even FO4 recognizes some vestiges of FNV.
It’s just so goddamn silly how Bethesda just cannot understand Fallout, and it’s doubly cursed to see the terrible goofy grimdark mess of East Coast Fallout with West Coast factions.
I didn’t play anything past mario 64 back in the day, unfortunately. I was a teenager and had decided to “move on” to xbox games. Playing Sunshine and Galaxy in the Super Collection was really fun though!
I replayed it recently on an emulator and it really holds up, the only other person I know that played it played it with me as kids. Unicorn Overlord caught my eye recently and looks really similar, I’m pretty excited about playing it
Oh yeah, I’m playing Unicorn Overlord right now! It scratches that same itch, and I’ve really been enjoying it. It’s a little easier than I’d like, so you can pretty comfortably crank up the difficulty to the highest setting for a decent challenge.
If you like this genre (whatever it would be called), you might also like Symphony of War on PC. I played it a couple of years ago, and it’s really good. It was the first game I’d played like Ogre Battle 64 since I was a kid.
I learned about MissingNo back on the playgrounds and read about how to catch him. It said it was risky, but me a kid, tried it anyway thinking what could be the harm.
I caught it! I was scared of losing it, so I hit Save and turned off my Game Boy Color. Booted it up, and my save file was gone. Kid me was crushed, and I chastised myself for being so stupid to risk it despite all the warnings.
My first play through of Pokémon Red was wiped out completely. My first party, my certificate of getting all Pokes (that I desperately wanted to print with a Game Boy Printer my folks never got us), all gone. I spent HOURS trying to find Mew under that damn truck. All of it - gone.
I’m so used to it than I break down crying when I miss it. Unless I’m not using a mouse; if I’m using keyboard only I use keyboard shortcuts to achieve the same effect.
I use those mouse gesture browser extensions. Hold the right-click button, then swipe right or left. It’s probably even more ergonomic than clicking those extra buttons (I have only ever used generic mice). Not that I am against extra buttons for other purposes, though.
I often have to run through folder systems on Windows so feature parity is important. At the office I have a mouse who has these buttons “hidden” on the scrollwheel. I can just push the wheel left or right. That’s pretty ergonomic and actually feels quicker than having thumb buttons on the side of the mouse :)
This was Star Trek The Next Generation for me during the pandemic. Everything was so bleak, and a familiar and hopeful future brought me back from the edge of depression.
My G500 started double clicking within a month of purchasing it. I just bound left click to a side button and never looked back. I’ve been using that broken mouse for over a decade now because they’re just that good.
Logitech was so close to creating the perfect mouse. Why they haven’t fixed their terrible internals is beyond me (planned obsolescence aside).
I still feel that way about the old MX510/518/400 line. When the G series first came out, Target had a whole shelf of MX518 on 90% off clearance and I bought them all. Gave a bunch away as gifts, but they lasted me almost until Logitech made the re-release of the MX518 with newer internals. I bought a few of them and am still on the first one after a few years. I bought a 502 on clearance to see if they were any better than the MX518. Nope, so it’s now living in the backup hardware box.
I went through so many feet on my old MX510 and MX518 that I bought a huge roll of 1/2" wide industrial teflon tape to put over the feet. The newer models have much bigger and thicker feet so that’s not needed anymore, but man those old ones wore away quick.
I’m still on the 500, and I have a couple I got way back. I’m hopeful that when they eventually die, Logitech has available something decent. I don’t have much hope though.
Yep. Although I preferred smaller mice always due to my hands size. Had G9 which lasted for eternity, then USB cable broke and me being an idiot got rid of it instead of looking for a fix. Still regret that decision. Then I wandered through bunch of different device and finally settled on GPro.
