Not anymore no, the initial reaction was justified. But yeah after nearly 8 years of free content updates they have certainly redeemed themselves

I’m glad I’m not the only one! Though if I play something for a second time I do tend to up the difficulty a bit.

That does indeed make sense, thank you (and many others) for the answers!

Yup, I have. I liked it, but it did not make the top 10 for me, purely because two of the storylines were amazing imo (Connor & Kara) and one was centered around a trope that I absolutely despise (Markus). It didn’t ruin the game for me, I still loved it and will play it again at some point, but because of that I cannot put it in my top 10.

Enjoy the new games!

For what it’s worth, it’s incredibly frustrating as a European with a functioning brain too.

Ranking is tough but I’ll give it a go. The ranking is based on the impact and enjoyment I got out of them regardless of playtime.

1. What Remains of Edith Finch & Kentucky Route Zero (shared 1st place)

2. Life is Strange

3. Stray

4. GRIS

5. Cyberpunk 2077

6. SOMA

7. Heaven’s Vault

8. The Town of Light

9. FAR: Lone Sails

10. Portal 2

That last one is a bit of an outlier but I have laughed so much while playing it, it deserves a place at the table.

I hate to admit it but it seems that way. Our social systems, transport, healthcare, etc. were severely degraded by rightwing policies, and now many people voted for an even more rightwing party, as if they are gonna clean up the mess. Fucking idiots.

Her life is not your choice though. Thankfully.

While it does indeed kind of smell like an ad, keep in mind this is not some triple-A bullshit. It’s made by a single dev and has a heavily involved community on reddit and discord where competitions are hosted and suggestions are made. Regardless of tankies reputation, that kind of behaviour is not tolerated in either of those communities. I’ve been playing it on and off and have over 500 hours into it by now. It is a very niche game, but for those that like tanks and military games in general, it is a real gem.

Sadly, it’s not just the US. A whole generation of students here in The Netherlands were made to take loans. They did change it back, but it was in place for 7/8 years. And, as a cherry on top, there was no interest initially. Then a small (~0.5%) interest was added, and now a few days ago they announced that the interest would be five-folded. It sounds too American to be happening here, but sadly it is the truth.

It really is

I’m Dutch myself so nope, not assuming so XD

Nevertheless, as a European, it is my continental duty to shit on Americans, which is (partially) why I made the meme :P

No problem, ElPussyKangaroo

Yeah that was my reaction too earlier this morning XD. I believe this post sparked it all: https://sh.itjust.works/post/5513795

Ah, so this is where the memes come from. I was wondering why there were so many in my morning feed XD

Deathgasm. It’s about a bunch of metalheads that find some sort of old hymn. When played, it summons hoards of demons/zombies. So then they start fucking up the zombies. I vaguely remember one of them being impaled with a dildo? Either way, it was an entertaining “turning your brain off” watch that’s pretty unknown afaik.

Don’t forget the coconut!

The ending of How I Met Your Mother. Like, it was certainly no cinematic masterpiece, but I felt like it was a very logical build-up and delivery. I don’t get the impression that they really stretched the story for more seasons either (yes I know they did add more things to stretch it, I just mean I think it doesn’t show story-wise). But even a few days ago I saw people complaining about how bad the ending was, and it’s a rhetoric I see almost every time the show is mentioned. And, again, it is not a cinematic masterpiece by any stretch, but I wouldn’t expect that from a sitcom anyway.

I imagine this is what he looked like when he was watching Cars 2 in the cinema when he spilled his beans and some black teens laughed at him so he became a republican
