12·1 year agoAgreed with what you’re saying about blizzard, but I don’t regret buying D4. I enjoyed the story and playing through the classes. The thing that’s missing is the replayability. The seasons don’t do it for me and the gear is too incremental - there’s never the “holy shit it finally dropped” moment.
That’s how I do YT. The good creators usually have a consistent release schedule. The really top tier ones may only release every few months, but by only browsing subs I’m sure to catch them.

92·1 year agoI’m seeing a lot of judgement on pretending Santa exists vs being 100% truthful with your kids. I don’t think either way is a bad way, but don’t judge others if they choose to pretend Santa is real.
With that being said, I do agree that if you are going to go with the Santa story, when the kid asks if they are real you should be truthful.
I just went through this with my 9 year old. She just came up one day and asked me if Santa was real and I told her no. There were a lot of follow up questions and it made her realize the tooth fairy, Easter Bunny, etc were the same situation. She asked me why we pretended Santa was real and I explained for us it was nice to see the magic that they felt from a stranger being kind just for kindness sake.
For me personally, I think it’s a good lesson for kids to begin logically questioning their world and what they’ve been told.

Huh? Lol
My rule of thumb is if it’s spammed all over YouTube, then It’s going to be shit in some way. Temu, TikTok, Raid Shadow Legends, Better Help, that stupid cereal brand that was advertised for a while, etc.
They have such sights to show!
It used to be good. They went downhill at some point in the last 5-10 years. Their bread sticks always taste like store bought now and they got rid of my favorite meal (the steak gorgonzola Alfredo).
I wonder if they’re repackaged due to not meeting certain quality control thresholds, but still technically useable
If that’s Dan Cummins, then that changes the entire context of the picture.

But it’s not an opinion. You’re judging a show based on images and saying you don’t like show because everyone else likes the show and keeps resharing those images.
An opinion would be “I watched this show and it wasn’t that funny.”

I’m usually the same way with open world games like The Witcher, GTA, RDR, etc, but BG3 puts the story enough on the rails to keep me focused while still letting me make critical choices and enough freedom to explore so it feels amazing when I find little secrets or Easter eggs.
My buddy has played through it twice with 40 hour runs each.
I’m still on my first playthrough at about 70 hours and close to wrapping up act 3.
Some games need huge QoL updates. I’d like to see a balance of backwards compatibility along with the ability to toggle QoL settings. Give the player a choice to play OG or with modern QoL mechanics
17·1 year agoAwesome, eXTwitter is on the cutting edge of 10 years ago.
To add onto this, one of the Arkham games had a bug in the last fight with Joker that wouldn’t let you finish the fight with mouse/keyboard. It was a QTE and it would recognize the button press, but wouldn’t recognize you were holding it down, so the animation kept resetting like you were taunting the joker before finally finishing him off.
For me, Half-Life and Half-Life 2 modding was the golden age of FPS gaming. The life of a single game purchase was extended well beyond any expectations because of the creativity of the modders.
Unfortunately, mods like Counterstrike, Day of Defeat, and many others are getting developed and released as “Full games” now, to the detriment of the gamer and the industry.
Now we’re in the age of relatively easy to use game engines, where anyone can develop and release a game, but there are so many games flooding the market that you look at and think “Why would you release this?”. In the past, I truly believe these types of games would have been relegated to the modding scene and filtered properly through the communities to gain popularity naturally and organically rather than getting huge marketing budgets pushing us to buy the next big thing or FOMO.
