| Topic | Critically acclaimed games you only 'like' and not 'love' ? |
| Joelypoely 05/30/20 4:11:40 AM #5 | Most Zelda games, they are fun to experience but are more like 7.5 or 8/10 games rather than 9 or 9.5/10 games BioShock, Mass Effect series, and KOTOR, in these cases I liked everything about the games aside from the core gameplay itself which bored me pretty quickly --- https://philoetryblog.wordpress.com/ Well done azuarc, Guru winner of GOTD 2020 |

| Joelypoely 05/23/20 6:59:09 AM #9 | A big difference I've noticed is Australians much more regularly use the schwa sound compared to us.

| Topic | Behold, the Adjusted X-Stats for 2020! |
| Joelypoely 05/19/20 3:41:58 AM #60 | People will think I'm crazy but I would legitimately put Hearthstone in my top 5 games of the decade. 2014-2016 was especially enjoyable. The main issue from 2017-2019 was lack of consistent balancing but Team 5 is finally starting to make regular changes in that area. --- |
| Topic | Adjusting the contest scoring system based on prediction percentages |

| Joelypoely 05/18/20 6:43:49 AM #9 | I didn't like it much as a kid compared to 2 and 3, but when playing the remasters recently I loved Crash 1 the most for the challenging nature of going for the 105%. I can't even imagine the skill and patience required for all the platinum relics. --- |

| Topic | Do you have a purpose for living? |
| Joelypoely 05/17/20 9:49:53 AM #29 | MFBKBass5 posted... what if there is no reason though? What if its just pure luck were all here? You're right, that is a possibility to keep in mind. If that is the case nihilism will prevail. My present belief is that there must be some explanation for existence, otherwise nothing would exist at all. However of course "Nature has her own logic" so human conclusions like this may always be overturned. --- |
| Topic | Do you have a purpose for living? |

| Topic | Is breath of the wild your favorite zelda game of all time? |
| Joelypoely 05/14/20 10:06:22 AM #16 | Twilight Princess is my favourite. I don't think BOTW is worthy of game of the decade. There are too many other impressive games which outshine it: GTA V, Dark Souls 1 and 3, RDR 1 and 2, SMG2 and SMO, Portal 2, Forza Horizon 2, 3 and 4, Civilization V, (and if remakes somehow counted, SOTC) BOTW is still an interesting game, it just didn't blow me away like these games. --- |
