got told to make this

Quarter way through Neuromancer (I only read a bit before bed every day), but it's really making me wanna push Cyberpunk 2077 replay up the que (and finally play the DLC). There are so many moments where I'm reading it and just supplanting visuals from the game and it works perfectly.

Never thought I'd see a t-rex shake that thing, what a miracle.

Though I imagine that was very cool when you're like some teen or young adult in 1980 with Apple II, just Zorking off for weeks, discussing it with all the other zorkers, and sharing your Zork knowledge to eventually reach a climax with big points and few steps.

This shit makes me feel like one of those people asking for easy mode in Dark Souls. You play Colossal Cave Adventure, and it's a relaxed, silly little journey made with love. Then you boot up Zork, and it's like "what if we made Adventure but fucking evil and annoying?"

Like you've been exploring too much? Trying too many direction commands? Whoopsie, your crucial lantern is out now and you will be eaten by a grue. Bad thief RNG? RIP. Didn't know about The Egg? What a fucking idiot, you obviously had to drop it so that thief can open it and drop it somewhere.

And I'm gonna be honest, if I have to restart the game again, I am fucking blitzing through it with a guide. You can tell how much this game inspired Sierra, because are so many convoluted puzzles and ways to unknowingly screw yourself in ways that only crop up hours later.

Well not finishing Zork today, but made a good deal of progress, so I will probably finish it tomorrow. I'm at a point where I mapped out almost every location, so the biggest obstacle is thief RNG and finishing the game before lantern runs out.

Obviously they kinda wear cinematic influences on their sleeve, but I still think it's pretty cool how well they managed to translate these influences through both cutscenes and gameplay.

Tried to multiplayer running on MoHAA recently and replayed a tiny bit of Spearhead just to check settings. It's actually kinda wild how "modern" it still felt in terms of presentation.

People who need every part of the lore explained to them are just ontologically evil.

Managed to go all my life without seeing Neuromancer spoilers, only to have a key reveal ruined by some drooling moron asking who maintains Blackwall servers in Cyberpunk 2077. Dude just dropped it in a way that's hardly fucking related.

9games except I couldn't find the website everyone was using, and also not sure what this 3x3 represents, but I like them all a lot.

Fuck it, close enough, welcome back Dead of the Brain

Every time I wake my cat up accidentally, I do one big relaxed breath, like the one she does when she settles down somewhere, and it's been working flawlessly to make her go back to sleep.

There used to be a show here before internet was widespread, where a guy would travel around the country and cover shit like ghosts, aliens, spontaneous combustion, etc. shit went so hard. It was even funnier when he went completely bald after a few seasons.

I've seen no other game where such trash baby behavior is normalized to such an extent. Yet in Tekken it's even peddled by the by far most popular and liked streamer.

Even if you ignore those, it's fucking wild to me how many Tekken players are just scrubs. Not even in a sense that they're low skilled, but the scrub mentality of having like 20/30 different characters who you refuse to rematch because they're cheap/cheesy/carried/etc.

I feel like Tekken is one game/series where the community affects how I feel about it. It's hard to get excited about a game when community is full of genuine racists and homophobes.

I've been seeing both Arc Babies going "heh, this poop game is afraid of us, they filter the name in chat" and Marasloppers trying to flex how it's not a "don't shoot, friendly!" game.

I got the original ones and the gremlin is still whispering "it's so cheap, come on, for old times sake."

Marathon and Arc Raiders both seem like ass to me, but I'm very much enjoying their fans feuding with each other in the lamest way possible.

Gotta beat Zork tomorrow, and then not play a text adventure for a very long time. Probably gonna do Gears of War after that to unwind before La-Mulana.

It's getting my prejudices all mixed up. Every time I hear something stupid it's like "does this person know how you win a MOBA match," yet you could easily replace it with "this is a Dota 2 zombie player."

Steam activity feed right now is just walls of this

Quality of Deadlock at night is so ass that it's becoming extra motivation to fix up the sleep schedule.

I feel like FOMO exists with games more than any other art form. Like people want to be "in" on every new big release, on the conversations around them but there are lots of them, a few every month. There's like an expectation of voracity.
