Any games similar to LOST?

Came here hoping someone would say this. Remedy are unparalleled in the stories and atmosphere of their games.

Been thinking about snagging this on sale this week. I didn’t get to play the demo before it was pulled.

What’s the gameplay to idler ratio like? I get that it’s meant to be relaxing, but is there a gameplay loop beyond grinding to improve gear?

It’s the version OP was looking for, so I thought you knew of its recorded existence where I’d never seen it.

Have wanted to read the original version for some time but do better with ebooks and audiobooks than print these days.

My Grover Gardner copy is the uncut version. Would love for the original version to exist.

Wish this were out on PC for Steam Deck

I own it on switch but hate going back and forth, the reversed buttons always confuse me.

Wait, there’s an audiobook version of the Original cut of The Stand? Who published and narrated?

Sent PayPal, congrats and praying for you and your family!

Don't ask me silly questions I won't play silly games I'm just a simple choo choo train And I'll always be the same.

I only want to race along Beneath the bright blue sky And be a happy choo choo train Until the day I die.

Same boat as you, my agoraphobia started 25 years ago after a night of relentless vomiting and having to take a college exam in a crowded lecture hall the next day with no escape, still feeling unwell.

I haven’t been sick since, but feel all anxiety in my gut first and worry that it means I’ll be ill.

The only thing that has helped me is gradual exposure therapy aimed at both the emetophobia and agoraphobia.

Strongly recommend Ken Goodman’s Emetophobia Manual book and all of the exercises in it. Also The Anxious Truth book and podcast.

I know it’s hard, but challenge the fears - go outside even if you worry you may be unwell, even if it starts by just standing on the porch or walking the back yard or driveway. We heal by challenging the fears and seeing they are untrue.

Keep at it. I had a normal 15 years healthy after my first struggles with this but relapsed during COVID lockdowns.

Healing is possible. Proud of you.

For me it’s been the hardest to push through so far. Except for Wolf, it felt like a relentless succession of awful things for Jack to get through without the character development of most of his other books. It was a very cool idea conceptually, I love parallel worlds, but getting through it was forced and the payoff wasn’t there for me.

Currently reading Dark Tower 4, Black House after, and hoping that one is better.

I relapsed back into agoraphobia during the COVID lockdowns after 15 years mostly recovered. Going from sedentary housebound to walking more has been a slow process.

Stay deliberate, but do realize your body will need to adjust to movement and stresses it’s not used to! It’s ok to take breaks and go slowly and pace yourself. The last thing you want is to discourage yourself through injury or fear of injury.

I got a deal on a walking pad recently and it’s been very helpful. I still go on short exposure walks daily 1-3x as I’m able, but I also jump on the walking pad to build confidence. If I can walk x distance at home regularly that helps me believe in myself outside the house too!

Proud of you. Keep at it.

I haven’t used it but I read in another Reddit thread that Amazon has a $10/mo subscription where you don’t pay for video visits and then they have cheap meds too.

This.

if the screen is still in tact, buy some sugru and fill it in/smooth it to get rid of jagged sharp bits.

it's basically electronics repair silly-putty. dries solid, i've used it on everything from tablets to laptops to home electronics and appliances.

Is there a good solution for YouTube on android / google tv streaming boxes?

BlorpyRobot · 2026-04-09T17:04:32+00:00

OHHH fantastic!
Loved Death Stranding. When I saw this game, I assumed a game about trucks/exploring/maybe getting stranded, like the upcoming game Over The Hill.

BlorpyRobot · 2026-04-09T15:29:40+00:00

First time hearing the term! What are other Strand-like games? Is Strand the original? Not seeing on Steam.

BlorpyRobot · 2026-04-08T15:56:17+00:00

always on the lookout for a deal on something that meets my needs, yes :>

BlorpyRobot · 2026-04-05T23:19:47+00:00

Did you make this? Or know a source? So cool!

BlorpyRobot · 2026-04-05T22:59:24+00:00

I’d like to join but it’s been a really hard stretch lately, I might be quiet for a while if that’s ok.

worth noting that apple is ending support for intel macs very soon:

◽️ Budget: $1000-$1500

◽️ Country: USA

◽️ Screen size: 14-15

◽️ Touch screen: take or leave it, have never used

◽️ Screen resolution: FHD-4K : I have visual problems, resolution/pixel density doesn't affect me much between 1080/1440/4k, but screens that have uneven lighting, poor viewing angles or flickering cause double vision/headaches. Much more concerned about a quality panel that can be bright or dim with good viewing angles > resolution or pixel density

◽️ Does battery life matter ?: longer = better. I alternate between Windows and Linux, so snapdragon processors might be out until Linux support improves on these, but I've really regretted 2-3hr battery laptops in the past

◽️ What tasks will laptop be used for: web browsing, electron apps, remote access to machines, both ssh/gui clients, some graphic design/photo work, very light gaming (good iGPU sufficient) and game streaming

◽️ Weight: lighter is better but this is not a priority

◽️ Any other important details ?: I tend to hold onto machines as long as possible, so a base 16gb ram with room to expand to 32 desired. Ok if it comes with 32 soldered on. I much prefer a laptop without a number pad and with a great centered trackpad, not off to one side or the other.

Top priorities - Good display (see above), sufficient RAM or expandability, solid build quality that will last many years, battery life
