I love balatro, but I wouldn’t call it my GOTY

Bold of you to assume I’m attentive enough to do that

I see a lot of people saying that this is an accessibility thing, while also allowing you to not miss anything important

But a well designed, uncluttered environment can do both of these things while giving you a more immersive experience

But we can’t do that, because we’re in an endless chase to get the most realistic graphics, and how else are we going to show that off than overly detailing each pixel of stationary on a worker’s desk?

I also see a lot of people saying “just don’t use the feature if you don’t like it”

There’s a famous quote I like. “Given the opportunity, players will optimise the fun out of a game”. And you can bet your ass I do that. In any game with this “scan” feature, I’ll be tapping that like a relapsing porn addict, looking for any new quest npcs, missed collectables or just to see if I’m on the right path. I have a similar issue with minimaps, as they have a comparable effect on gameplay

After playing through elden ring (twice), I decided to give dark souls 3 a go. So far, is good, would recommend

Pokerogue: free online pokemon roguelike

Picked up elden ring on sale three weeks ago, and already have 90 hourd in it, and I’m on my second run. First was a strength build, and now a dex/arcane bleed build!

There was a sorcerer build in between those two, but it trivialised my favourite part of the game so I stopped it

Maybe SVE on the first playthrough is a little much…

These kinds of charts are usually used to compare things that, in this case, wouldn’t be science, but humourously could be considered science if given a chance

But the other guy is right-if you don’t follow the scientific method and don’t try to describe your findings in ways that attempt to better understand the universe, then that’s not science. That’s bias

I feel like the only person in the world who dislikes oreos

After Ublock, its easily my favourite addon

This might be a hot take, but i prefer the compressed graphics of the original in most games over the 4k rerenders

It really sucks when you get spoiled on the big twist in a game you’re planning to play

I once randomly got spoiled for persona 4 when watching a tips video for the best way to improve stats. That was a big letdown, considering I was halfway through it already

As a kid who had a dad that religiously blocked any and all use of technology, I agree the right step is to allow access to it instead of taking it all away

This kind of made me revere videogames and the internet as a whole, using them whenever I had the chance, only realising I maybe shouldn’t be on them all hours of the day after I moved out

Even then, it was a hard habit to break

Restriction is a hard line to balance, and I wish you luck with it
