Same, I’ve been at it for a few months too. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve had to re-run all the tools and patchers… Nemesis, Synthesis, Dyndolod… some manual patching in xEdit and oh look, a new mod! And this mod just updated, and this one too… here we go again

Nice! This mod and “A Cat’s Life” are amazing. Truly essential mods right there, instant download

Yeah… I barely pay attention to new releases anymore and I stick to older games that I like. This is also why I prefer to play games that can be modded, so I can make my own fun.

If they hadn’t over-promised things and straight up lied, it would have been received better. A lot of what they said was gonna be in the game still isn’t, and likely won’t ever be…

Definitely The Sims and Runescape for me too!

I used to try to build the wackiest terrains in Sims 2, the tallest mountains with a house on top and things like that. Also messed around with cheat codes most of the time, building graveyards and killing sims in every way imaginable, you know just regular stuff…

Runescape is definitely a unique experience! I remember being really pissed when I had my favorite cape stolen after I got killed in the wastelands (or whatever it’s called) by another player. I used to try going as far as possible to kill the demons there, the danger gave me a thrill lol. I had to cook so many fish and fill my inventory to stay alive.

Zelda Phantom Hourglass and Zelda Twilight Princess are also very near and dear to my heart. I must have played through PH at least 10 times. I harassed my mom endlessly to get a DS and she ended up addicted to the game too lol.

As for TP, i don’t know if it’s the nostalgia but no other Zelda game came close to dethroning it for me. I don’t see it talked about as much as the others. I love the atmosphere of this game, the story, the world, the characters… I still get the creeps just thinking about the floating hands in the twilight realm lol. I had to look up a guide to find all the insects, I wanted to collect everything. The minigames were so fun too, albeit frustrating at times. The one where you try to find all the cats in the Hidden village was my favorite I think, the western music alone was just too good lol. Also bc I love cats.

These are the ones I remember loving the most but I’m probably forgetting some. Above all I think I loved video games (and still do) because they provided an escape from the real world, where the anxiety just faded away whenever I was playing.

I had never heard of XMPP before, thanks for sharing. I’m in favor of blocking Meta completely. I came to the fediverse to specifically avoid those other places…
“The Fediverse is not looking for growth. It is offering a place for freedom.”
I’m very thankful for that. Great article.

If he wants Reddit to grow up, he should start by doing the same…

I didn’t know we coud do that! Thanks for sharing, I missed the collapsible comments on reddit

Legit kinda terrifying lol. What is the clip from?

It’s been a few years since I played this game, but I remember loving the combat mechanics. Jumping and climbing on enemies is really cool. Though I installed a few mods to make it a bit easier… I’m not a fan of difficult combat lol. Too bad I couldn’t get into the story enough to keep playing, since that’s essential for me to enjoy anything. The constant comments from the pawns were getting repetitive too and kinda took me out of the experience. I tried playing the Dark Souls series and couldn’t get into it either.

The character creation/customization is one thing I really appreciate from Dragon’s Dogma, I haven’t seen a lot of games that have the same options like changing the height, posture, and things like that.
