I was so hyped for it, to play with my boy, before learning theres no local co-op. Still havent bought it.

I started it way too late. Spent the first few hours having to solo while getting spammed with duel requests, like seriously every second a flag came down. I accepted a couple and got wrecked immediately while they spammed lolololoolol noooooooobbbbbbbbbb stomped rek lol doing the dance emote.

By the time I got to the “real game” and its time to party up to do dungeon runs, nobody would let me join their group because I didnt have full epic perfect-spec’d gear. Which i cant get without doing the dungeon. Which i cant do because I dont have the gear.

Just uninstalled it. Didnt even make it past the free trial. I’m still baffled, because a game like that lives or dies based on its player count, and the players make it as hostile and inaccessible as possible for new players.

Thats where I stopped. I played the prologue and was having a blast, then you get to the first camp and it shows you all the stuff youre expected to do and it just looked like hassle.

Dragon Quest Builders 2 kind of fits the bill for me here. I wanted to play it from the moment I learned about it. I had zero experience with 1, or any other dragon quest games. My biggest issue, and im still quite angry about it, is that the game I wanted to play, and the game the trailers promised actually does exist. Its all functional. The only way to play it though is the campaign, and its so frustratingly hand-holding and text-heavy it actually hurt to play.

“we need to build the BRONZE ROOM. So we’ll need some BRONZE. Theres some BRONZE in the cave nearby.” [Camera pans over to where the bronze is.] “Okay! We’ll go and get the BRONZE!” “I think 3 pieces OF BRONZE should do it.”

Head over towards the cave.

Hey! We’re near the BRONZE cave! Isn’t this where they said we could get the BRONZE that we need to complete the BRONZE ROOM? Let’s get the BRONZE!

Head towards the bronze.

Hey! It’s the BRONZE that we need to make the BRONZE ROOM! Lets mine some quick so we can make the BRONZE ROOM! You can do this! Let’s go!

Mine the bronze

[BRONZE acquired!]

Hey! Thats it! We just mined the first piece of BRONZE that we need! Didn’t the quest-giver say we needed 3 pieces? What are we waiting for? Lets mine 2 MORE!

Mine 2 more

Thats it! Weve got all the BRONZE that we need to make the BRONZE ROOM! lets Head back to the base as quickly as we can to make the BRONZE ROOM.

Head back to the base, get talked to by the quest giver for a solid minute about the importance of the bronze room. Then the concept of the silver room comes up. You think 'that was a really really really long-winded tutorial, but they’ll leave me alone to do the silver and gold now that I know what to do. No. Go back to the top of that list but replace BRONZE with SILVER. Then gold. Then do it again and again and again until the credits roll and you realise the game never actually happens and you just wasted a bunch of your life and you’ll never ever get it back and they could have made an excellent game, and they actually did, they just wouldn’t let you play it.

Im still pretty bitter about that whole experience.

Everyone has most traits of most mental health issues to some extent. Its not a useless classification though. Classic example is everyone pees but if youre doing it 40 times a day its probably time for the doctors.

I mean maybe, but well never know for sure because Americans voted for the people who outright stated “get in loser we’re going fascist”

From Penny-Arcade “the least convincing performance of humanity I’ve ever seen”

I think I swallowed some of the juice

Also that magazine(?) that is both far away and really close and lying on the floor and also floating and somehow moving through itself.

I dont know 100% what it is but my soul rejects it.

Its not about the trash cans, its about making sure your neighbours know YOU are calling the shots. If it wasnt the trashcan it would have been the grass a half-inch too high, or the paint on the door chipped slightly, or gravel leaving the premises, or dirty windows.

Oh no, but the PC has no games

Naw

Im remarkably childish, and when asked a question the first thing that pops into my head is often “your mom”. I live in Scotland now and “yer maw” is how they say that.

To the untrained eye, yermaw looks like it could be a real name, or some weird DnD monster or something so I got away with that to some extent.

Wouldn’t be so good of a hiding spot then though

Imagine if we could all agree, every side of every conflict, that all the soldiers just turn around and point the guns at the people telling them to kill.

32 seconds, but my toddler jumped me so im calling it 20.

Im super bragging here but thats the first one I ever did completely so im feeling the pride here.

I’m still gonna complain. Ive got a L that fits perfectly and a XXXL that makes me look like Harold from Hey Arnold. Lucky for me my gender doesnt store such personal worth in size like that.

2030 still feels like a standard “deep in the future shit is fucked” film date.

Didnt pay enough attention to the actual information, because its too indepth for a topic I’m not really interested in, but it was a pretty neat experience. Very well presented.

Post more stuff like this that you find please id love to see something I’m interested in

Is there any way to stop the mods from going mad with power?
