I have a 600 PC game library. I also own nearly every mainstream console and handheld released since 1980, and quite a few lesser known ones. My house is pretty much a gaming museum.
And I’ve only played a sliver of the total amount of games available to me.
I remember being 11 and playing Super Mario World and a couple Zelda games about a hundred times each. I came back to them over and over, I remember the maps and layout of Ocarina of Time better than I remember some of my childhood homes.
Now I have a steam library with 750 games in it and I can barely finish with the game I’m currently playing before I’m back on the store pages looking for more novelty. I think the average play time of items in my library is something like 2 hours.
I hate what I’ve become but I’ve lost what I had in the past. When I only had like five games I had no problem coming back to them over and over and over, but now that I’ve got my own income and no oversight I’ve flooded myself with options to the point that I don’t even want to play any of them. It sucks. I take solace in the fact that I pretty exclusively buy things on sale, so the total money pile is roughly half the size it would have been otherwise, but even so I don’t really want to know how much money I’ve spent on steam over my career. That’s cursed knowledge.
The wait for build 42 is agonizing. I have major respect though for Indie Stone for keeping up on the game for all these years. I know the game gets occasionally bashed for being EA, but it feels like they care with each update (and the public roadmap to release helps too)
How is this only blowing your mind now and not the entire past decade or so where this has become the norm for the giant corpo devs like Blizz, EA, and Ubisoft? This has been common long enough that I’ve become completely numb to it now.
Good game, had a lot of fun with it. It seems a lot of people didn’t like the game because the graphics got downgraded from what they showd in the first trailers. They only real complaint I have is the handling of cars is weird.
Does anyone play splitgate? Has anyone played the splitgate 2 alpha? Jesus, it’s this. Whoever made that game missed the boat big time. Splitgate is a simple arena shooter with portals sprinkled in to make it interesting. No loadouts or “heros” to memorize, no points and weapon upgrades to keep track of. Just fast paced point and shoot. Splitgate 2 is everything I hate in video games currently.
Man, I remember I got Minecraft right after the Nether’d been introduced. Played pretty constantly until right around the oceans update, and then I got distracted and fell off.
Now looking at it there’s so much it seems almost unrecognizable.
I got Minecraft on the Xbox right around TU 3/4 (probably TU 3 since I believe TU 4 added horses and those were only added after I started playing). I would play almost daily with my Younger Sister until we both ended growing apart. The game really has grown a lot. Sometimes I can’t tell if something is a mod or vanilla when I see a post online.
To be safe put it in offline mode. You can always do a clean install later. I do prefer being online but if you’ve played the crap out of it already it shouldn’t matter much
