Seanchan 02/22/23 11:36:14 PM #22 | Just for completeness, I did finish the Left Behind DLC for The Last of Us. I guess I thought it was going to be longer, but I finished it in one sitting. A more breezy and lighter experience than the main game, it fills in some of the details of Ellie's story that were hinted at during the main game. Nothing amazing, but certainly worth playing unless you hated the main game. --- "That was unnecessarily dramatic". - NY Mets motto (courtesy of InnerTubeHero) Congratulations to azuarc, the guru of gurus and winner of GotD 2020! |

Seanchan 02/21/23 9:37:49 PM #43 | Chicory beated! Fun game! Interesting story that's heavy but in a different way than something like The Last of Us. I enjoyed running around the world and it kind of reminded me a bit of Link's Awakening at points. Much better use of paint than the boring Color Splash, that's for damn certain. Wasn't a big fan of the "boss" battles, but you can't lose them so that helped a lot. Finished in 11 hours at 87%. Started trying to go for the platinum but then thought otherwise when I couldn't find the trash I was missing on Spoon Island. 90%+ and around 12 hours.

I do wonder if having to portray all those likenesses/copyrighted material on the front page from dozens of video game properties is something that legal needs to clear or something. There's no fucking way. First off, there's all sorts of images now on the home page and all over the website.

Just started the bit after the sniper area you probably mentioned, with a dam. Joel is definitely more than a bit of an asshole. Then again, so is just about everyone in the game. Kind of the nature of that world that "bleeding hearts" won't get very far. About the dam... I'm playing the PS4 Remaster on PS5, and there's definitely multiplayer options in the menu.

Seanchan 02/15/23 11:28:52 PM #12 | The Last of Us beated! I'm not really sure I see what's so special about this game. The story is fine but it's pretty standard zombie fare. Personally speaking, I was much more affected by Lee and Clem's story in The Walking Dead Season 1. The gameplay is passable. I'm going to play Left Behind (and eventually Part 2...) but I need a break with a little bit more cheerful of a game first. --- "That was unnecessarily dramatic". - NY Mets motto (courtesy of InnerTubeHero) Congratulations to azuarc, the guru of gurus and winner of GotD 2020! |

Seanchan 02/14/23 5:34:45 PM #282 | UltimaterializerX posted... Okay look at it the other way around. Again, yes? It would still have been a very tight match. 25k votes is a lot, and I don't think there's a tremendous amount of variance added with 5x the votes. (I'm not a statistics/polling major though!) Enough to swing a super close match? Of course, but close is still close. What I think is worth lamenting is the general smoothing of trends over time, as the "after school" voting is gone. We still have some trends from varying tastes in countries but even that will have homogenized with more recent generations of games. I guess I'm still a fan of having site wide contests, even if they're only getting 25k votes (or 12K...). I know we have various board topics for voting on "Games of X Generation" but those are more like primaries in politics, much more prone to bizarre nominations and results. --- "That was unnecessarily dramatic". - NY Mets motto (courtesy of InnerTubeHero) Congratulations to azuarc, the guru of gurus and winner of GotD 2020! |

Seanchan 02/13/23 11:18:45 PM #11 | Based on guides, I'm about halfway through The Last of Us. These types of games always seem to take me longer to play through than they should since I try to play stealthy and that means slow. I figure I should still have time to finish this and then get to Chicory (in regular GotM). Left Behind probably won't happen this month though. The section that ended the last chapter, with the sniper, really sucked. Motherfucker was potshotting me through open windows while I was inside a house. Some definite bullshit. Sometimes it's felt like some sections exist just to get me to use resources, whether consumables or bullets. And then there was the story beat, which kinda felt like it was always what was going to happen in a game like this. --- "That was unnecessarily dramatic". - NY Mets motto (courtesy of InnerTubeHero) Congratulations to azuarc, the guru of gurus and winner of GotD 2020! |

Topic | New PC and Problems With YouTube |
Seanchan 02/12/23 10:44:21 PM #6 | Truth be told, I've been having issues with my desktop PC for the last 6 months or so, where some websites just fail to load properly or take a really long time. But it's only some sites. Like GameFAQs wasn't working right for a long time but seems to be back to normal for the last week or two. Different browsers and adblockers made in difference. My laptops and phone work just fine on everything though. Virus? Maybe, but Defender and Malwarebytes don't detect anything. Also, I'm not exactly searching the dark web... Bad Cat5e cable? Seems highly unlikely. Bad router? Again, same thing. I've also been lazy about testing those out. Now, in my case, my PC is like 8 years old, so it's possible there's a hardware issue on the mobo. But if you've got a new PC, that's probably not the case. ...so yeah, I've really got no fucking idea.
