I always appreciate people who upload stuff like this to youtube because the official soundtracks (if they even exist) aren’t always complete. That said, if you want to be able to listen to any of this stuff just download it. The probability of it being pulled or flagged is too high to assume any one channel or upload…

The delay thing I get. I used to like browsing the stores but that was before I really knew what I wanted to buy. Now if I go to a store I’m usually on a mission to get in, get out, and back home as soon as possible. But I’m a hermit so I kinda hate being outside :p

I also kinda hate gamestop so if I go into a store to…

I also think it depends on what you’re after. In terms of story it’s always nice to have something interesting or thoughtful but taking comfort in wrapping yourself in a setting because you like the aesthetic is valid too depending on what you want to get out of it.

You can like scifi because you like aliens and…

The absurdness of SR 3 actually made me like the characters more. What turned me off the series was when they gave you superpowers. I didn’t want to detach the feeling of a GTA like completely from the game because I do enjoy parts of that formula. If this game essentially boils down to another SR3 then it’ll probably…

I think it’s more that the new characters all seemed very boring compared to the old Saints. I played the older games for the goofy gameplay and co-op shenanigans and not the characters so it’s not a huge dealbreaker for me but the old saints had some sass that I appreciated and the new ones seem kinda flat by…

Yeah. GTA lost it’s novelty pretty quickly and it’s story missions got worse and worse with each game. The last game turned some of that around but I always thought the Saints Row games were way more fun to play. They were so ridiculous! It was hard not to have fun, especially if you brough a friend along in co-op.

I still buy physical copies of games I care more about but who goes to gamestop to buy games these days when you can just order a copy online?

There really isn’t a concrete definition of what a mass shooting is in terms of numbers and such. That said, there is a staggering amount of gun violence in the US. There’s a nonprofit site called the gunviolencearchive.org that tracks statistics about this stuff. Give it a peek if you’re curious just be warned that…

I kinda get you. I ended up moving most of my set up to my desk when my last tv died because I’m not a couch gamer and I spend a lot of time on the computer playing games or watching stuff. My monitor was definitely a higher resolution than my old tv was so everything looked nicer too. But after having the Switch for…

Exactly. Having the option to do it is what makes it so good. Some games I like playing on my monitor because they look better but it’s cool to be able to pick it up and bring it into the other room. Also good for when I want to keep playing but sitting in my chair is starting to hurt my back or if I want to play…

Whatever your opinion on Nintendo games, being able to play in docked mode or on the go is absolutely a game changer and a feature I’ll miss on any new console in the future. I might even get a Steam deck, I love it so much. When I try to play games on my PS4 I actually kinda resent being tethered to my monitor now.…

Square’s actually doing quite well atm. Game sales are down but everything else is up and tbh what games have they released since the FF7 remake made ALL of the money? Outriders? Of course game sales are down, anything people are interested in is in development, they’ve got nothing to sell atm.

Their NFT push is a…

I’d doubt it. I’ll admit to not digging very hard for numbers but some casual searching brings up stuff like this that say profits are trending upwards: https://www.pcgamer.com/square-enix-says-final-fantasy-14-is-a-huge-reason-behind-financial-success-in-2021/

Not everything they’re spending money on is doing badly…

Oh no. The reliability of legendary drops is one of the reasons I loved Borderlands 3. In BL2 I’d get a random legendary drop, love it, then outlevel it and never find another one.

Playing through BL3 I got really attached to the Lob and found like 6 of them so I was able to keep using it as I leveled up. It was great!…

Well he’d been saying for a year or two that it would eventually go away so you might be right. It’s better for him this way since he can actually make some money but kudos to him for keeping the old model for so long. That’s some contrariness I can appreciate.

Some will do ad breaks but most don’t like having them run apart from when you first join a stream because it interrupts the viewers and makes it harder to follow what’s going on. Like people say, the real money for streamers comes from subs or stuff like patreon if they also do stuff on youtube or whatever. Ads…

Previous Borderlands games, for instance, had a feature where you could duel members of your co-op party. It was fun, sure, but it was also an effective method for settling who gets to walk away with loot in disputes.

I took this video as more of a this is the way it should be used sorta thing. However, as things currently stand, there is a large majority of people who use it to laugh at other people or downplay criticism about the games so even if you don’t use it that way or only use it as a joke with no intended venom behind it…

I don’t think that’s the problem. Sure, some people don’t read and skip all the dialogue and cutscenes but newer players tend to. They’re curious, they want to learn how to play. 

The issue is that Souls is notorious at this point for trying to kill you so telling a player to jump down a pit seems too much like a…

Oh you’re right! I’d never seen someone beat it first try so I didn’t know about that. That’s kinda funny.
