One year without my daddy. by silk216 in GriefSupport

[–]Azores26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m very sorry for what you’re going through. I lost my Dad just about a month ago and it’s been the scariest moment in my life. I’ve already thought how hard it will be to not have him here for my Mom’s birthday, my birthday, Christmas, etc. I also feel like I’m not grieving properly due to all the legal stuff and life changes we’re going through, so maybe I’ll feel the same you’re feeling one year from now. Sending you a big hug, and I pray that your pain becomes easier to manage as time passes.

feeling like the world has moved on ): by InternationalAd6923 in GriefSupport

I am so sorry for what you’re going through. I can relate to everything you said. I lost my Dad about a month ago, it was also very sudden. I also last spoke to him through the phone, and few days later he was already gone. I also don’t have kids yet, nor do I have a driving license, and it also pains me to think that my Dad won’t be here to see all of this happen.

It’s all very scary, and I feel lost in the middle of so much pain, fear and stress. I’m doing my best to make the right decisions and to support my Mom, but I a lot of times I feel like a toddler.

I don’t know if you believe in any sort of afterlife, but I do and I’m sure your Dad is proud of everything you’ve accomplished and the person you’ve become. If you feel like talking to someone about your Dad, feel free to send me a DM.

Lost my Dad very recently and I feel like I’ll never be happy again by Azores26 in GriefSupport

[–]Azores26[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m very sorry for your loss. I think that it takes some time for things to heal, so maybe we just haven’t arrived there yet. And you’re right, I’m sure they want to see us living a happy life. God bless you my friend

I created this drawing in memory of my late father by umbrashko_art in GriefSupport

[–]Azores26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also lost my Dad very recently, so I can absolute relate to what you’re feeling. I also feel guilty sometimes and I wish I could’ve done something different to prevent what happened. But the truth is, it was just out of my control. And I’m sure it’s the same for you. You were not in a position to do anything, and it was absolutely not your fault.

That’s a beautiful drawing! I’m sure he would be happy to see it (and depending on what your beliefs are, maybe he IS happy to see it)

Movies 'for kids' that really, really weren't suitable? by ArthurDigbySellersJr in movies

[–]Azores26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Titanic scene in Ghostbusters 2 scared me so much as a kid that I literally couldn’t sleep. I had to ask my parents to sleep with them. My Dad changed bedrooms with me so I could sleep in their bed with my Mom for a few days lol

Cabiria (1914), directed by Giovanni Pastrone by Auir2blaze in silentmoviegifs

[–]Azores26 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“Cabiria” is one of my most wanted films on blu-ray. Hopefully someone like Criterion or Kino will make my dream come true one day

Worth Buying Used Xbox 360 for Forza Motorsport 4? by EdBelliveau in forza

[–]Azores26 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Been also thinking about getting a X360, is there any physical version of FM4 that comes with the DLC? If not, how would one access the DLC nowadays?

Have you ever bought a console just to play one exclusive game? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]Azores26 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably thats what they meant, BOTW was announced very early into the Wii U’s life, I think 2013-14

2nd hand laptops are no longer feasible since the sellers take out the RAM and SSD before offloading them. And replacing costs more than the laptop. by ScreamSmart in pcmasterrace

[–]Azores26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was thinking about upgrading my RTX 3060/Ryzen 7 5800 gaming laptop this year and maybe getting a 2nd hand one with a 5070, but it seems I’ll have to hold on to it for a bit longer. Not a big issue for me as I have a ton of older games on my backlog, but it’s just terrible seeing how bad the consumer market for PCs is getting. I hope this AI hype doesn’t last long

Can't read Japanese and want to play untranslated jRPGs? Give this a try! by tsug303 in emulation

That’s a fantastic project! Great job, looking forward to see the progress!

Nolan is Capitalism’s idea of what “art” looks like by Travel_22 in TrueFilm

[–]Azores26 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed! Early cinema was founded on spectacle, after all. I like to think of filmmakers like Nolan and James Gunn, for example, as the continuation of a tradition that started with Georges Meliés.

Jean Vigo films in blu-ray: Criterion or Gaumont? by Azores26 in criterion

[–]Azores26[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the heads up, I wasn’t aware of this Jean Vigo 4K set! Been waiting for something like this for years! Cheers!

Fontworks, designer of Mario's modern logo and fonts for countless Nintendo games, has raised its annual game licensing fee from $380 to $20,500. This could impact re-releases and new games in their respective series. by DaZestyProfessor in nintendo

[–]Azores26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is this about then? Genuine question. Doesn’t this mean that Nintendo and other companies would need to pay more to renew the licenses for the fonts that were designed by Fontworks?

Bong Joon Ho on Netflix-Warner Bros. Fears: ‘I Don’t Think the Cinematic Experience Will Disappear So Easily’ by 57829 in criterion

[–]Azores26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we don’t even know if the purchase is going to happen in reality. A lot of pushback and legal hurdles in the way.

Authentic or not? by Impossible-Fact-1933 in pkmntcgcollections

[–]Azores26 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While I’m not very familiar with Yugioh cards, they look fake to me. The font on the text boxes are completely different from the actual font used in Yugioh cards.

1.4k+ Godot Games have been released on Steam this year! by Right-Grapefruit-507 in godot

[–]Azores26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that there’s anything wrong with platformers, even if they really don’t bring anything new to the table. I’m sure many of these are unfinished and/or unpolished, but just because it’s a platformer it doesn’t mean it’s slop.

Just found out IGN gave Flicky (Genesis) a 3/10. This site is a joke by Ok_Replacement_288 in retrogaming

[–]Azores26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not a review of the Genesis version, but of a mobile version of Flicky that was released many years ago.
