If you lose a lot of weight suddenly you often gain it back just as quickly. However, this isn’t true in all cases, such as being cut in half by a mysterious ronin who appeared to have not even unsheathed his katana

WAIT WAIT WAIT

DOES THIS MEAN ✨HE PRETENDED TO BE HIS MOM✨ TO GET OUT OF FIGHTING ZUCK?!

Twitter is saying Elon posted as his mom while trying to post as his dad

And the people making a big deal of this as a negative thing are really telling on themselves.

Also, aggressive looking for any reason to not have a good time.

Sure, the normal people playing aren't noticing so much that they universally "he" that character... but I'd argue that this unobtrusiveness is the correct way to do representation.

And we see it.

One thing I appreciate about Saros, having played it and watched streamers play it, is that normal people don't even notice that one of the characters is a they/them whose pronouns are respected by everyone else in-game, even the heartless corporation.

It's funny, I've been playing Saros, which is a harder game than Crimson Desert and I've been dying much more in it, and not once have I yelled "what the fuck are you even doing! just fucking move! you fuckwit!" at the screen because I'm frustrated at the character's movement 🤔

ive watched this part like a dozen times now

On the bright side, the loop does look more like Hades (which I enjoyed) and less like Returnal (which I wasn't particularly interested in)

In a terrible position wherein I want to play Saros because Rahul Kohli is awesome, but I don't want to play Saros because the gameplay loop is not my jam

I've never had such a toxic relationship with a game before.

I beat Crimson Desert.

This game was ass, and I hated it.

But I also had a lot of fun for like 60% of my ~208 hours before rolling credits.

The other 40% was mostly me yelling profanities as the character seemed to refuse to obey button inputs.

Listening to the Portland In-N-Out buzz on today's @citycastportland.bsky.social podcast, and wondering if there's some way to drum up enough excitement for White Castle to come here instead

If you can’t win without changing the rules, maybe you don’t deserve to win.

This is right up there with when I forgot the name of the movie "Requiem for a Dream" and searched "movie with Jennifer Connolly ass to ass" and it gave me the correct IMDB page

This nonsense method of searching is why I like the DuckDuckGo AI search

The dungeons in Oblivion have to have been procedurally generated, right? Just from a time when that was pretty universally considered "cool" and not like laziness?

And it was considered cool until pretty recently, too- the procedurally generated everything in No Man's Sky was sort of the point.

That being said, don't pay too much attention to things like speed of light or distance or time or temperature when any of these things are provided in numbers as none of the math checks out consistently from one part of the movie to another

I saw Project Hail Mary last week and my first reaction was that it was sort of overhyped, and while it was a very good movie it wasn't the best sci-fi movie ever, which it seemed like people were implying

But it's been growing on me as time goes on, and now I think I agree it's up there

I had so much fun with it, it's like a modern Oblivion with parrying and Elden Ring dungeon design

But like a modern Oblivion, the jank adds character (later in the game there are multiple bits of dialog with voice actor errors/retakes, for instance)

It feels like it was written by an AI- the story and main character are nothing and all his dialog feels like it comes from a soundboard

I've quit playing better games

If you are looking for something with heart and fun despite the jank, Tainted Grail Fall of Avalon is much more worthwhile

although, only one of these games feels like it was created by algorithms and it isn't Claire Obscur

Crimson Desert has dropped to a “mixed” Steam review rating, with most of the complaints revolving around the controls. Now, the PR and marketing director at developer Pearl Abyss has responded. https://bit.ly/4sy0huY

behold, bargain bin verso

Okay, so I've played a bit of Crimson Desert and you can't remap the controls on PS5 and I've been playing FO76 recently so keep trying to open my map with the touch pad and instead zooming in on my character's goofy ass bargain bin Verso face, lol
