Elden Ring and souls-like games really take a certain mindset to enjoy, and if you get stressed too much from failures, you’re probably not going to have fun.
Alternatively, if you’re someone who craves the challenge and can laugh off losing, it’s the best thing ever.
This reminds me of a semi-friend I knew in highschool, dude really thought he was a cool guy and everyone was always up his ass even though he was a huge jerk all of the time (like a wannabe Tosh.O kinda style). For some reason I let him borrow my WC2 Battle chest and after a few months I asked for it back and got only one disc that was so thoroughly scratched it never even registered.
Started hanging out with him like a decade later when he moved next to my bestfriend, got to tell him I thought he was a piece of shit in school because of how he treated my stuff but doubt he actually cared or really remembered.
Interestingly, had a meth head who was visiting my roommate for some drugs (had taken shit from our place in the past) who borrowed one of my vhs sets while I was at work (was thoroughly pissed thinking it was gone forever), he brought it back the next day and had even wiped down and fixed the broken flap on the box. I try not to judge people borrowing stuff because of that and only let people borrow items I’m ok with losing and wouldn’t sour a relationship over.
I modded my Wii and loaded the sucker w/ n64 emu, ds emu, gc emu & practically the whole catalogue of games to follow suit. 3 years later and I’ve only ever played Animal Crossing and Bionicle Heroes…
I’ve been replaying Skyrim since I got the Special Edition on sale few days ago. The loading screen goes away so fast that I can’t enjoy any tips on information that it shows. The technology has come a long way.
I tried to do an online check-in for a flight some time ago. After cursing the airline, all software developers, all of society and all the gods for about 30 minutes, I realized that I had to allow popups for the site.
