I think we have gone through all the emotions this past week! Speaking to people it seems like we caught it early on compared to others but it is still terrifying.

Discovered my young daughter is self harming so really not great at the moment.

That’s good to know. I’m a third of the way through now and I love the premise and how straight to the point it is.

I don’t think it has as big an impact on players as it had on developers.

I think that’s a good way of explaining it. Shenmue can be a love/hate kind of game and with the Dreamcast’s short lifespan too it isunderstandable that mainstream gamers have never played it.

They really dropped the ball with the price of it all. Everything I watched yesterday was cool up until the cost…

Definitely play the others before 3.

Fully deserved in my opinion.

Also why is KCD2 and BG3 on the list? That must be a mistake.

We Are Legion (We Are Bob)

It is part of the “Bobiverse” so with a name like that I honestly couldn’t help but have low expectations but so far it is a really fun read.

I would spend an hour or more on one delivery just walking from one end of the map to the other! DS is not my usual kind of game but it fits me perfectly.

I had some of this feeling too and found the game is much better in very hard difficulty as it makes all the equipment and weather reports actually useful.

I barely buy any physical media anymore. I didn’t intend to be this way but I guess it’s a combination of things now with cost of living crisis, new games cost more than before, digital sales are mush better and more games are given away for free with various services. Out of everything we own it is Switch games that have the most physical versions because digital prices of Nintendo games suck.

One of my all time favourites. Definitely a love it or hate it type of game though.

If I’m feeling this way I leave my phone in the furthest away place I can and do something else.

Just block and move on. Looking back when I first join Lemmy it was tedious but now I barely have anything but good interaction on here :)

I’ve spent more time choosing what games to install than I have actually playing them…

I’m not sure how I feel about this one.

Personally I’m not going to buy it until some more updates are released and/or it shows significant potential. I can’t shake the feeling that it is going to go the same way of something like KSP2, Payday 3 or Cities Skylines 2 where the sequel is too stripped back compared to the original and falls flat…

Edit: I love the first game so will hope for the best.

Thanks for the link.

I enjoy it but also a big reason is to get away from technology.

Fishing Controller and a copy of Sega Bass Fishing for the Dreamcast was good fun.

I’m a big fan of the lightgun more though and have so many good memories. Point Blank, Die Hard Trilogy, Virtua Cop, Time Crisis, Confidential Mission, House of the Dead and even Ghost Squad and Red Steel 2 on the Wii were all so good.

I’m curious what “all the masculine things” are to you?

There’s nothing wrong with what you are describing though and, like you said, it is what it is.
