After Slashdot, Digg, and Reddit...

I am not going to put my trust in such companies. And it gets worse with AI.

I love the concept, but the execution keeps me from jumping in. The platform is too delicate and separated.

Care to elaborate?

Keep in mind that the Strait Times is somewhat pro establishment and pro China.

Better than South China Morning Post. But I would still be cautious with this media.

Haha no idea what those are (I am not American).

Which is your favourite Resident Evil game? Mine is RE4 on the Wii.

Animal Crossing New Horizons (about 15 hours in)

I really enjoy the crafting, feels more involved compared to New Leaf.

I think that is utmost important. I didn't notice any symptoms but then all the sudden I had foot pain, turned out I had gout (high uric acid), high blood pressure, kidney damage, and high triglycerides.

Lifestyle changes help tremendously, and it is easier than you might think.

Have you taken a comprehensive blood test recently? Found anything you need to fix?

The land of freedom allows big companies to do whatever they want.

I tend to have casual thoughts while taking showers.

By answering (no) stupid questions.

 
  • Manga is usually better than TV series, and TV series are usually better than movies
  • Too many internal struggles that drag on and on
  • Frequent flashbacks. Things that happened in the same episode they would have to remind you with flashbacks

I don’t understand why the majority of cozy games have a calendar system and or time limits. I already have a limited time on earth and I don’t want game devs to artificially restrict how I spend time in game.

I have to drop games like Stardew Valley because of the calendar system. I know there is no strict time limits and I can just wait for the following year if I miss an event. But that just makes the game stressful. Also the day/night cycle is extremely quick. Every action I take I have to look at the time and consider the duration.

Similarly in Persona series, why do they have the calendar system and restrict how much you can do with social interactions? When I play an RPG I like to take my time to explore as I want.

I am writing this because I finally found a game that feels cozy, which is Fantasy Life i. No calendar, no time limits, live as many different lives as I want. I prefer games to be games.

 

Any summer sale?

 

Is the Steam Deck performance struggling with new AAA games? Should I be concerned buying a Steam Deck now?

I'm guessing/hoping not because most game developers would optimise the games for the Switch 2 and Xbox Series S which have similar performances as the Deck.

I think 30 fps (consistent) is perfectly fine, and I don't mind medium details.

I am wondering if results from this community would be different.

 

For me, I am hoping to see discounts on:

  • Steam Deck OLED
  • Expedition 33 (probably worth the full price but I am not sure if the timing based combat is for me)
  • Fantasy Life i
  • Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
 

I love watching game reviews on YouTube, but I find many reviewers sharing these annoyances:

  • Loud background music making it difficult to listen to the actual review
  • Spending way too much time talking about the story. I only want to know the theme of the story, not the entire plot
  • Making it a game tutorial. It is helpful to briefly describe the game mechanics so I can find out whether the game is for me. But it becomes excessive when you explain it in detail.

What I want to hear more:

  • Whether the game is good
  • How it compares with other games in the genre
  • How is the music in the game?

Game channels I like/recommend:
TheKisekiNut, JohnRiggs, MortismalGaming, davidvinc, gameranx, ircha

Can someone recommend other good gaming channels? I especially like retro games.
