I learned about it from Austin Powers in Goldmember in the early aughts, but yeah I’m glad someone else pointing out there’s like, an odd historical rhyme with the particular numbers coming back.

I thank you for your contribution to my collection ʚ♡⃛ɞ(ू•ᴗ•ू❁)

I tried to make a resolution this year to not buy any new games when I have all these demos, ROMs (and ROM hacks!), fan games, and otherwise free games so it’s nice getting a recommendation like this.

If anyone here is into puzzle platformer games I strongly recommend Toki Tori 2+. I think it’s come out for just about everything at this point. It’s somewhat billed as a metroidvania but that’s only because of the platformer aspect of it and the large map you have to explore – there’s no combat and the only gates to progression are your own knowledge of the gameplay. You start with your only two abilities and slowly you are introduced to puzzles which give you insight into how those abilities interact with the environment and creatures, until by the end you realize you had ten times the number of options from the beginning as you thought you had.

There’s also an abstract puzzle game I recommend called Hook (here it is on Steam to be sure). It was originally a mobile game, I think. It’s not long, and it’s not difficult, but it’s zen and I personally loved the way it introduced and iterated on concepts.

Sorry if this comes off as creepy but I feel the need to ask due to my own disappointing searches lately: do you mean this in like “100% serious the devs let you sex up a catgirl” kinda way, or just a “we have catgirls, everybody loves catgirls” kinda way?

Also, I’m curious how much Morrowind differs from the ones before and after. Because I remember playing many hours of a friend’s Oblivion and ending up souring on the open world enough that I legitimately never want to play Skyrim despite it being the most popular one, and I have Daggerfell and Arena on my GOG account but have never touched, either (I think those may have come free on the account?).

Personally, I recommend Snes9x as an emulator (I also play on linux, Ubuntu if that’s helpful). As for hunting down ROMs, you can often find compilation “best of” packages on Archive.org or if you hunt around for trusted sites (I’m unsure of the rules here if I’m allowed to direct you to said trusted sites or not) I’m sure you can find it.

Officially, Chrono Trigger is on Steam and that probably takes minimal finageling nowadays even on Linux.

Damn. My sympathies, friend. Life dealt you a bad hand and society said “get wrecked” instead of helping you fix it. Hope I didn’t offend. 🫂 🫶

I’m sure you just made a typo, but I am chuckling to myself at the thought that you are walking around being blind specifically because it’s against the law and not because of any biological problems. Like “fuck the police, I’m throwing away my glasses!”

Lemme (heh) know if you ever figure it out – I’m very new here and apart from doing the legwork of finding communities to subscribe to I don’t know what else there is

I think most of this is spot on, but the hearsay was that the subreddits who did participate in the shutdown were threatened with an ultimatum, which while I don’t think is possible to prove either way, hints that it would have happened regardless. Tho I’m usually all-too-ready to don my tinfoil hat when it comes to reddit trying to look appealing to investors; I witnessed a number of hentai/porn subreddits get banned and users actively request to become new mods only to be ignored.

Even if you discount the mods, there’s definitely a certain inertia you see in groups like this (like what’s going on with Discord right now) – people don’t want to leave in part because they’ve got their little in-group and don’t want to have to go through finding or founding a new group elsewhere. I think it’s particularly prevalent with those niche communities that don’t ever really break containment; the community would already be small enough without fracturing to the eight winds. I’m liking Lemmy so far but as I am trying to drum up activity in one of those niche communities (RWBY), it’s kind of disheartening how little relative traffic there is across the place.

You could try 12ft Ladder – looks like the .io site went down but first result when I searched the web was “5 alternatives that work” from a tech-focused website. I personally wouldn’t bother since the OP didn’t actually provide a source other than the WSJ’s homepage.

Ironic since this is a fully SFW server (I like it here, it’s the only place I saw a RWBY community, but yea)

It’s math like this that convinces me that you can contribute more to the ecosystem by paying even a single dollar to a creator’s Patreon (even when Patreon takes 30% off the top) and watching w/ adblock than paying a monthly subscription to YT.

Hot take: visually this looks awful in comparison to the original.

Well, played, my friend, well played.

Seconding this suggestion as I’ve actually played it. The scares are really low-key, too (more on the psychological side) so even my little baby ass was able to get through it alright.

Considering you’re specifically asking for horror games, I would suggest clarifying what you mean by “no nsfw” – because there’s going to be a lot of horror games that don’t contain any nudity/sexual elements that would still qualify as NSFW due to gore, body horror, and other disturbing imagery.

There was one (1) spot that got me seriously stuck in Portal 2, I think about halfway thru? Here’s hoping you can work through it better than I did (I had to look up the solution).
