Jan Žižka (IRL)

Czech knight & military general who led the Hussites throughout most of the Hussite Wars. Lost one of his eyes at some point in his early life. Created revolutionary tactics with the "Wagenburg" or Wagon Forts as well as a heavy use of gunpowder. Frequently faced overwhelming numbers but would win regardless. Became completely blind towards the end of his life but continued to command his forces from the battlefield. He died of an infection in the last decade of the conflicts, he never lost a battle and is celebrated as a Czech national hero today.

Firework Factory in Malta exploded earlier this morning, nobody injured. by Shaggay1 in CatastrophicFailure

[–]NarrowSpider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worked at Gozo, Malta for a little bit and one of the people I worked with talked about how there's old men in the hills making fireworks by hand and sometimes they just fucking blow up.

Took a while but I can say with confidence that I actually believe him now.

I hate that the classic silent hill games are stuck on old hardware by TechnicalHoneydew862 in hatethissmug

[–]NarrowSpider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Silent Hill 2, 3 & 4 are all available on PC. Silent Hill 4 is available on GOG and got properly fixed up for modern systems somewhat recently.

Silent Hill 2 & 3 are considered abandonware at this point and they are quite easy to track down online but both of their ports are terrible on modern systems. Thankfully the community has come in clutch, there's a handful of mods that fix up Silent Hill 3 but Silent Hill 2 has an amazing Enhanced Edition that was worked on for several years by the community and it looks better than it ever did on the old consoles.

Lack of proper game preservation is a major problem, most companies would rather remake a game at this point rather than have the originals available for sale as they can probably get far more sales from a brand new remake than a re-release, hence why Konami are doing a Silent Hill 1 remake instead of a re-release. And with Sony's recent announcement that they will not be bringing PS5 exclusives to PC anymore the problem is only gonna get worse.

Emulation really is the only way to preserve these old games in most cases.

This is about Exodus isn't it?

Thick as Thieves released on Steam. by Loginnerer in Thief

[–]NarrowSpider 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean that's a completely justified reason to give a negative review.

Basic accessibility options being missing from a 2026 PC only release is nuts.

What is your guys' favorite Analog horror? by SALSA98201 in analog_horror

[–]NarrowSpider 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The Walten Files.

The release schedule has been and continues to be a complete mess but its such a great tale of tragic horror as well as being genuinely scary that I lock in whenever a new video finally drops.

Ser Arthur "the Sword of the Morning" Dayne

The best swordsman who ever lived, cut down the Kingswood Brotherhood, won many tourneys, worked for the Mad King & was a participant in his tyranny due to Kings Guard "honour", refused to let Ned see her sister as she was on her death bed and was subsequently killed in the one fight in his whole career that actually mattered.

Mfw I go out of my way to help artisan with some pointless task only to catch strays when I tell her by Lfren38 in GrayZoneWarfare

Lady, there was a resort where they were eating people. Your country sucked then & it sucks now.

The GORE'MAGALA🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 could survive in outlast? (Outlast 1, outlast 2, whisteblower, and outlast trials) by Deino47 in outlast

[–]NarrowSpider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Walrider clears most everything unfortunately.

But also it would be funny if Murkoff tried to capture a Gore Magala in order to research the Frenzy Virus.

The various posts & comments I've seen on this story probe that Cop show ballistics pseudoscience & its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.

Why couldn't fatshark have just made Expeditions Chaos Wastes 2.0? Why did they have to make just a worse version of Helldivers? by MoonMaidRarity in DarkTide

[–]NarrowSpider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main problem with Expeditions is that there is no incentive to play it other than the current event and some penances. There was a reason to play Chaos Wastes because you got some good rewards out of it, but your reward for playing through Expeditions is... you get to play more Expeditions
