I’m one of them. Huzzah.

She’s just enjoying the last bit of joy before that child sucks all it out of her life.

That’s not true.

I grew up in a huge family and did a ton of parenting without my consent. I know exactly what it’s like.

The first two that come to mind whenever this discussion comes up are Dragon Age: Origins and Bioshock.

If it were possible to erase memories, I’d erase my memories of these games and play them for the first time again.

Just when you think EA can’t get any shittier, they find another way to lower the bar.

Haven’t really had anything I’ve enjoyed lately, but I am ready an exceedingly good video game-esque novel. It’s called ‘Dungeon Crawler Carl’.

That’s pretty fucking cool.

Bummer.

You can still buy bitcoin though, just wait for the next dip and get right in.

Bioshock

FlashMobOfOne, 4 miesiące temu (edited 4 miesiące temu)

I know it doesn’t matter, but after all I’ve read about Nintendo and the Switch 2 in the last year?

Fuck 'em. I’m going to get a Steam Deck or a Lenovo handheld, and I’ll just enjoy the Nintendo products I already have. I’m not spending a small fortune on a console that they can brick remotely, or force me to buy a $50 proprietary charger for, or a “virtual game cartridge”.

Fuck all of that bullshit.

Getting weird is why we love Bioshock so much.

DA:V was such a disappointment.

It was a Disneyfication of the world of Thedas, and none of us wanted a Dragon Age game with no meaningful choices and a G rating.

And, on the plus side, anyone lucky enough to have never played it can get DA:O and all of it’s DLC for like five bucks no.

Thank you for not making me sit through a video.

So… who’s getting what?

FlashMobOfOne, 4 miesiące temu

I think I’m going to get the Dead Space remake (90% off currently), Granny: Escape Together (I like horror), and Escape the Mad Empire to start.

Might pick up more later in the sale, but this will keep me busy.

Remember you can get things refunded if you don’t end up liking a game.

What a bummer. Might get it second hand then instead.

FlashMobOfOne, 4 miesiące temu

Did they fix the janky dodging and rolling though?

FlashMobOfOne, 4 miesiące temu

Yeah, I had to put it down.

The gameplay was ultimately just too annoying to me, which is a bummer because the ideas and aesthetic were exceedingly cool.

FlashMobOfOne, 4 miesiące temu

I hope you have fun with it. :)

Very cool. Congrats!

Good. WotC is wretched hive of scum and villainy.

This wasn’t part of Next Fest, but I devoured ‘Tainted Grail - Fall of Avalon’. Excellent demo.

I hope this iteration gives the player a more open world and a little more freedom than the previous entries, but it looks pretty neat!

FlashMobOfOne, 5 miesięcy temu

Bummer.

Was hoping for a RDR-style Mafia game. Oh well.

Tainted Grail Fall of Avalon

Tried the demo and it hooked me. Great game so far.

FlashMobOfOne, 5 miesięcy temu

I’m only in the second zone of the game but there’s a lot to see and do just in the starter dungeon and the game’s first zone. I’m really enjoying it so far.

Someone please remember to tell them that WE WANT FAST TRAVEL. The lack of it in the SW: Jedi games is so aggravating.

Dragon Age: Origins and Bioshock

FlashMobOfOne, 5 miesięcy temu

Hands-down the best AAA title (in both content and value) in years.

FlashMobOfOne, 5 miesięcy temu

The dodging on this game was frustratingly buggy.

FlashMobOfOne, 5 miesięcy temu

Or get it second-hand off G2A or CDKeys.

I’m never paying $80 for a video game.

Mannequins scare the heck out of me.

I blame it on Herbie Hancock’s music video for the song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHhD4PD75zY. (Still one of the most unintentionally horrifying things I’ve ever seen.)

Also, if you like mannequin horror, the game The Devil In Me is a must-play.

Demons Souls is so damn good.

The Tower of Latria is still one of my favorite dungeons ever made.

Nintendo’s single-minded determination to enshittify makes me want to wait to get the next Switch, TBH.

I know it won’t matter, as their core fan base will happily endure the bullshit changes they’re considering for another Zelda or Mario Kart, but it would be nice if enough people decide not to buy that it actually persuades the company to be a little more reasonable.

FlashMobOfOne, 5 miesięcy temu

It’s a nice thought, at least.

For the last 10 years I’ve only paid full price for one AAA game: Elden Ring. I’ve gotten something like 200 hours out of it. It may be the best value for a AAA game ever, in my book. (And I haven’t yet played the expansion.)

I’m happy to wait for sales on everything else, including the secondary market for Nintendo games, but after their recent fuckery in multiple arenas, I’m not keen buying anything they produce. (Not that it matters. Their stuff will sell regardless.)

Jedi Fallen Order has no fast travel and the map sucks, do you often end up lost or backtracking.

Divinity Original Sin is also one that doesn’t guide the player particularly well.

FlashMobOfOne, 6 miesięcy temu

Stoked to try this game, but I’m waiting a few months for a patch to the graphics issues.

FlashMobOfOne, 6 miesięcy temu

I wish we could have gotten R6:Patriots.

How many of you got ripped off by the redhead, though?

It’s wild how good the cheap games are these days. I’m 30 hours into playing Noita, have hundreds of hours in Vampire Survivor.

And I got about 15 hours into Dragon Age: Veilguard before it occurred to me I could crack open the Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition and actually have an enjoyable experience.

I would suggest trying Caveblazers, as it’s similar, but it’s more barebones and (I think) significantly harder.

FlashMobOfOne, 7 miesięcy temu

This pleases me.

FlashMobOfOne, 9 miesięcy temu

I gave it 10 hours and had to just conclude that, nope, this wasn’t for me. Instead, go get the Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition for 5 bucks with all the DLC’s. That game is a work of art and has one of the best expansions ever made.

It’s not that it’s bad.

It just doesn’t feel like Dragon Age. It’s like Dragon Age if Disney made a DA game.

FlashMobOfOne, 9 miesięcy temu

It was so, so bad.

I’ve had some fun Anti-Nazi movies playing while I work-from-home lately, like Inglourious Basterds and The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare.
