gmtom, do gaming w Imagine, if you can.

Idk man, old games just dont have the same wonder and magic they used to and new games are just trying to suck as much profit out of me as they can.

Why would a 45 year old need permission to stay up late?

candyman337,

It’s a subversion of expectations because these posts are often about a time in your life where you wouldn’t have a care in the world, so they end with “it’s 1999 and you’re 12” and instead it’s saying “you can still enjoy those things, take some time to be happy”

grue, (edited )

Or it’s saying “you’re a loser living with your parents playing video games at 45.”

The ambiguity is part of the subversion.

Edit: I’m enumerating how it could be interpreted, not saying I have a problem with it!

candyman337,

fair point lol

You have to give yourself permission. For example, if I’ve got an early meeting and need to get the kids to school I’m in bed by 10.

That is just choosing…

Not really, because I can always choose to stay up late. I just know I won’t enjoy it if I don’t make give myself permission.

glimse, do gaming w Took me a couple of tries, but it totally works.

The least fitting part is the “The” on the Simpsons game

Tekken 5, Rez, Gun

Theeeeeeee Simpsons Hit & Run

Takumidesh,

I slapped a & before The and it worked out great

Tekken 5 / Rez, gun / & The Simpsons hit and run.

orivar, do games w Another intense day at the Goose Military Court

A little obscure, but it actually feels like Wicked Little Letters

Diabolo96, do games w Another intense day at the Goose Military Court

That movie with Jack Nicholson playing a general and screaming “you can’t handle the truth” to Tom Cruise.

Road_Warrior_10,

YES!!! MY MAN!

jaschen, do gaming w I even remember taking batteries from a smoke detector once.

We used rechargeable batteries. The tech was bad at that time but I remember it would last about an hour.

BowtiesAreCool, do gaming w Any 3DS/2DS fans here?

Love my 2DS XL. I’m sad that Nintendo totally shelved their mobile line since the switch is portable. Battery life on the DS line is incredible. I still get long hours from my DS Lite

verycoolusername, do gaming w Everyone's favorite game from the 90s

Who else remembers this obscure platformer? Especially the secret slapping move.

TachyonTele, do gaming w Zelda tried her best

Lmao this is gold

Objection, do gaming w What a frightening suggestion...

Does this also apply to more fantasy oriented war games?

No, the ICRC is talking about video games that simulate real-war situations. It is not suggesting that this apply to games that portray more fictional scenarios such as medieval fantasy or futuristic wars in outer space.

A few media reported that certain virtual acts performed by characters in video games could amount to serious violations of the law of armed conflict. Is this correct?

No. Serious violations of the laws of war can only be committed in real-life. A person cannot commit a war crime simply by playing a video game.

ricdeh, do games w I have a level that is a tribute to The Stanley Parable in my game, here is my progress. Any feedback?
@ricdeh@lemmy.world avatar

Please make sure that you distribute your game without DRM. Steam games are more often than not a miss rather than a hit.

catloaf,

All games are more often than not a miss than a hit.

Donut, do games w I have a level that is a tribute to The Stanley Parable in my game, here is my progress. Any feedback?

Is the level in the demo? Gonna check it out regardless, I love games that are meta and turn themselves inside out

Road_Warrior_10,

No, this level is not in the demo.

You might need a bean bag or sofa. The floor can be a bit uncomfortable.

Also a charging cable and an outlet to not run out of battery.
