Metal Gear Solid 3 - don't know how I ever finished this as a teenager, I tried it again like ten years later and was fucking terrible at it. But also one of my favorite games.

Resident Evil 4 - Played the remastered version within the past decade but I have a really hard time grasping survival horror in general so I didn't even make it past the opening town scene fml.

How bad are your eyes that you didn't notice HDR was on?
I didn't realize "HDR" was a thing for *Operating Systems*. I'm used to the concept in video games, sure, but didn't think it would be a thing for your standard desktop environment. And mileage varies, for some people the image quality is fine or even better with HDR on but for others, myself included, it can make the image quality much worse.

It's a really new laptop, actually. Also my issue wasn't just with the performance hit, but also with the fact that the image quality was really off when HDR was enabled. If you look around you'll see many other people had a similar experience.

Episodic games have been so overdone, though. Especially through companies like TellTale
Life is Strange is better than most anything TellTale has put out though. It's a different game where you have chances to explore the world and talk to people and learn more about them rather than just playing through the equivalent of a graphic novel in video game form

The main draw of NG+ is changing some of the late game story quests.

You might also want to download a mod to upgrade all the powers to X right away, just to mess with them for a bit before putting the game down. Otherwise you have to grind out catching 1,000 sparklies in zero-g in all the temples... -_-

Also, if you haven't tried it yet, mod the Mantis' ship into a C-Class vessel with 14 particle beams on it and attack The Key with it.
I am more curious about the first and third points... like can you completely destroy the Key?

I doubt I will have enough time to fully enjoy and explore with NG+, gonna do some searching and see if anyone journals their experiences with it.

Louder for the people in the back
biased but like if you join the military, especially out of high school, it's really easy to support a family, though depending on your job and your spouse's tolerance it may be hard to maintain that family. They give you housing, free medical and dental, and a relatively decent salary with practical job experience and training. My daughter will nearly have a free full ride through university, and that includes a housing allowance.

of course it's going to be more difficult if you decide to go the strictly academic route with not a lot of financial support upfront, and even more difficult if you go further for post-graduate education.

Yeah higher education is *way* too expensive and the cost of living in general in too many places is becoming unreal but like this guy's post isn't a great example of that.

Well, all the faction missions and main story. Actually kind of like the philosophy and metacommentary about life in the story, just a shame the whole game feels very bland and empty for the most part.

Also explored a little bit in New Game +, (major game spoilers): it is interesting how things have changed, though honestly I don't... remember the characters in the beginning like Helene Chambers or that kid and his situation with his parents dying lol. I actually only remember the kid himself because I used him and his family in the first playthrough to cheese upgrading my sneaking skill.

I did not get 100% achievements, so I might try to work on that in this playthrough. Or I might just load an old save where I have a gazillion credits and it'll just be easier to build everything I need for 100%.

My games completed this year:

Alan Wake 2 - 1 January
Saints Row (2022) - 19 February
Dragon Age: Origins - 24 February
Starfield - 7 April

Not a great pace lol, especially considering I had started Starfield at launch but I got burned out several times.

It sure took balls to pass something so stupid off as a good thing. You just said

Israel is deliberately killing aid workers and shutting down anti-genocide protests yet when it comes to protests of Gaza aid the right to protest is suddenly sacred.

I didn't say anything about protesting Gaza aid?
My first point was that US support of Israel did not start with Biden or this Congress and Senate. It's been a thing for decades. So to claim that magically Biden is responsible for this is ridiculous. My other point is that Biden did something that realistically most other presidents would not have done, which is start delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza. A third point would be that I doubt most other presidents would have allowed the UN to pass a resolution demanding a ceasefire - yes we used the veto power three times, but allowed a resolution on the fourth.

The US has provided more financial support to Israel than any other country since it was established.

I doubt many other presidents would have had the balls to send military aircraft to drop humanitarian aid and cooperate with building ports for delivering even more aid to Gaza.

But the moral of the story here, it's a reflection of greater US foreign policy, not a singular individual.

The faction missions are the best the main story ehh

Eh, they are all weak in their own shitty post-Oblivion Bethesda writing way. And way too fucking short.

Ryujin Industries - All the missions are the same. Fast travel somewhere, "sneak" to your objective, open a box or computer, done. It has an interesting conclusion but the missions had ZERO challenge to them.

Freestar Rangers - I had fun going around killing people and then bragging about it and making the main leader guy comment about how that's not the point of the Rangers. But it ends way too soon. You do like... half a dozen missions, mostly just tracking a few criminals down, and then there's a "shocking confrontation" and the questline is over.

UC Vanguard - Thought it was going to focus more on space combat, ended up being nearly a rip-off of Alien. That was cool but the writing sucked ass. Everyone hated me for deciding to do the safe thing and *not* release a modified bioweapon to stop the threat immediately. And like there was that cool twist with that huge war criminal being still alive but his role is so meaningless.

Crimson Fleet was the only one I enjoyed, just because you could actually make choices that affected... something. Hated the conclusion though. I killed all the UC people I could find in my quests because I hated that that guy had framed me for a crime and was extorting my services to snitch on the Crimson Fleet. Normally I play as a good character but that captain pissed me off. But then of course when you confront him at the end you don't get to kill him, you just have a stupid dialogue and he asks "Why did you join the pirates?" and you don't get to answer "Because I hate that you were blackmailing me". So even the ending of that storyline was ruined for me.

I don't even remember if there were any others. I think it was just those four. Also why the hell did they decide that each faction needed its own stupid mission board scattered around the whole galaxy? Why can't I just access all of it from a single board. Annoying.

Hell no.

The first one, we never were officially dating I guess, even though she didn't have a problem with me buying her gifts and going on little day trips out of town on the weekend. Turns out she was dating a guy who was married with kids.

One kept pressuring me to get married after we started talking for like three months, and then when I said we need to slow down she said she slept with some guy she met on Craigslist.

Another one was my middle/high school bully, and I thought she had changed but apparently not because when I went to visit her for a week she just treated me like shit (besides dumb namecalling, she got on my case for trying to offer to help with chores around the house).

Another one was racist as shit, dumb, told me her mom thought I was the R-word for wanting to date her, used me when she got upset to make her ex and his friends jealous, and tried to do a homebrew abortion with pills and alcohol.

Tell me why I would ever want to be on speaking terms with any of these people who ultimately had zero respect for me? Not that I harbor a grudge or anything but why would I even waste time and energy going out of my way to talk to them?
