Man, I have to do this also. No idea why the algorithm doesn't pick up on me not wanting to watch some idiot ranting about how videogames are woke or whatever.

I personally don't care a lot about Kojima's games but I still think it's absolutely great he gets to make whatever he makes because he is a unique voice in gaming! In a sea of games as a service, mindless franchise milking and countless copycats someone like him is needed to make outlandish stuff, whether I like the games or not. Tons of people do and that's great!

Aw man... I know that Elex has problems and stuff but it is and always will be one of my all-time favorite open world games. It's probably the insane mix of science fiction stuff mixed with Mad Max style stuff mixed with fantasy stuff. It's definitely a game done by people who really cared! And if they have to shut down, the gaming landscape will lose a unique voice!

Yeah! I played it something like two years ago and it aged wonderful! I mean, I wish them all the success in the world but this game doesn't actually need a remake

Man, I so wanted to love this game! Instead I just liked it. The graphics, the world, music, even the story are so well made and interesting to look at and explore. I loved the mining town at the beginning or the town with the ghost house! The only thing holding this game back is the somewhat stale level design between the interesting places you explore. They feel like flat 2d Zelda dungeons with a handful of frustrating design decisions to make them harder and take longer to finish. Still, I will probably get the DLC to show support for the devs and the interesting world they created!

Edit: Jesus fucking christ! I watched the trailer after commenting and didn't see they made a Harvest Moon/Stardewvalley style DLC! Day one purchase!

Eh, there is a ton of content creators who make cool stuff and don't endanger other people.

EasyJet is the only cheap airline I've traveled with and honestly, the crew was great! Friendly but quick, you always felt seen and cared for. This has nothing to do with the article but I just wanted to put this on here, anyway. Lufthansa is great also but at least double the price.

Eh, there are quite a lot of additional services and products Google is selling. I'd argue they want both: my money and my data. And then they turn my data into more money.

I love Dredge! But I think I finished the whole game in 4 or 5 sittings over a weekend. That's not a comment on the game's length per se and more on the fun I had. I just didn't want to stop playing!

Well, welcome to the club, I guess? Hard to understand how a corporation as big as Google (or Alphabet) has such a hard time catching up to other music/podcast services. I am subscribed to Youtube premium, so I try Youtube music every once in a while and it's just not as good as Spotify! The playlists Spotify generates are lightyears ahead of anything Yt music has. And the main page of YouTube music is just random stuff that has nothing to do with anything even remotely similar to stuff I listened to. Also, so many artist pages still have no additional information about the artist/band.

Anyway, for podcasts I prefer Pocketcasts. The free version is more than enough for the amount of podcasts I actively listen to.

I played Rogue Legacy and Dead Cells combined at least 150h and only a bit of BOI. I know that in RL the shtick is that with every new run another one of your family is the character. And in Dead Cells you just use a new body every run. The stories in those games aren't very elaborate and the games would just be as good as they are without story.

Hades is different in that the story parts of the game are an important part of the experience (you go around and get to know a lot of different characters and find different ways to upgrade stuff) and that the main character Zagreus doesn't really die - he is also a god. When you lose all hp you just get transported back to Hades and almost everyone there has new tings to say and the relationships develop over time.

I don't know how to explain it better but the main idea of a roguelite is clearly there the execution is way more elaborate and story heavy than RL, DC or BOI. Slay the Spire is on my imaginary backlog of games in need to play before I die.

Hades! Whenever you die, you get reborn in the "house" of your father Hades. Dying and being reborn is an integral part of this game and is what keeps the story going. You also get to upgrade and unlock weapons that way. Highly recommend this game if you like fastpaced and smartly designed action games!

 

Spring 2018. First time visiting Ireland and Northern Ireland. Love both!

I guess mall is a bit of a stretch because it was only a supermarket, a pharmacy and if I remember correctly a shop with cheap jewelry. Also a woman approached me about an election where the issue of abortion played a big role. She wanted me to sign a petition - I think. Anyway, this is also the first time I encountered a complete blue screen in public, not just a pop up.
