Rhynoplaz, do games w Would you considering watching playthroughs of a game the same as playing that game?

It depends on the game.

If it’s a story based game, absolutely. Cut through the filler and get what you came for.

But something like a rogue-like or Call of Duty, no, you just watched somebody play a game, but didn’t actually get any of the “game experience”.

Is watching someone play the game the same as playing a game myself, absolutely not.

Can I get satisfaction and an understanding of a game I know I never would’ve played otherwise, yes.

I’m not going to put in enough hours to make it through difficult games like dark souls or Hollow Knight. But I’ll put a walkthrough on while I do work or chores so I can experience those games in some way.

I’m all for it, but it scratches a different kind of itch than playing a game does.

It’s sometimes better because I myself may not even like the actual gameplay (such as long grinds, which you can skip over in a video if it’s not a theatrical cut to begin with), but otherwise wanna see the story.

Congrats! You actually did it!

ayyy, do games w Day 365 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing (One Year Anniversary!)

Congrats! I have enjoyed seeing your journey. I just want to check in with you and let you know that you can be proud of what you accomplished, but keep in mind that daily streaks can do funny things to your brain. It’s ok if you need to take a break. Don’t let the fun thing accidentally become something that hangs over you, and remember that taking a break is not a failure, because you have already succeeded!

Thanks for looking out for me! I appreciate it. I try to regularly assess my life and how it’s going to see if I can reasonably continue. So rest assured i try to keep watch from letting this take a toll on my life

DoGeeseSeeGod, do gaming w Open world RPGs need a standard feature whereby you can transfer your current clothing stats to any other equivalent piece of clothing in your inventory

The new dragon age game has this. As long as you don’t care about a good story, the combat is super fun and there are lots of nice quality of life stuff like that. You can reset the skill tree at any point, copy your character’s appearance if you want to start a new play thru.

If the execs didn’t fuck up the story, I think the game would sold big time. Fuckin idiots

jay2, do gaming w Steam is cracking down on porn games, to keep Payment Processors happy.

Additionally, all of these adult themes need their own filterable genre tags so that they can be included or excluded when you browse by filters.

Call of Duty players, when the matchmaker doesn’t just put them against people who have never held a controller before and they have to shoot at moving targets:

Thanks for sharing!

The Swedish GBA ad campaign is very unique!

That Spider-Man box for Gameboy Advance gave me serious nostalgia. I never owned the game but I think because I saw it dozens of times behind the glass at Walmart growing up. I haven’t seen it in years. Back when they had the controllers out so you could stare up and give yourself wild neck pains from playing games while mom shopped.

The foot for your distraught friend/partner in prison is cold, damn I like these old ad campaigns.

Lost_My_Mind,

Tickle tickle!
