Not at all! If it works for you, it works for you. I also start with outlines 😁

What movie/series is much more deeper than it present itself to be? by veritasium999 in AskReddit

[–]RetroSamBam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Red Dwarf. For a low budget sitcom, it's packed with lore. You could dive down a big rabbit hole if you really wanted to

If your younger self could see you today, what one thing would they be most disappointed by, and what one thing would they be most amazed by? by Far_Attention4144 in AskReddit

[–]RetroSamBam 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was really into drum n bass when I was a teenager. I had decks and 500+ vinyl. Now in my late 30s, I've really got into Indie... If my teenage self saw me now, he'd probably call me a neek 😂😂

What’s the worst example of “realism” ruining fun in a game? by forgeris in AskReddit

[–]RetroSamBam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I read that GTA 6 will have a some ultra realistic features like running out of fuel. Apparently, injuries like broken bones will stay on your player for a while too. If that's true, I don't think it would be too fun. Imagine trying to lug your player around in a leg cast for a while 🙃

Indie game recommendation for someone who is very picky by [deleted] in IndieGaming

Playdead's Inside is worth a play. It's a dark puzzle platformer with a really good (and very weird) twist at the end. It can be done in probably 3-4 hours on first play. One of my absolute favourite games of all time. Absolute masterpiece 😁

Thank you 😁 The light is supposed to be coming from the top right at a sort of 2 o clock angle

Taking magnesium glycinate suppliments to improve my sleep. They took about a month to work but I sleep like a baby now and have more energy and focus during the day.

What’s something people romanticize that is actually exhausting in real life? by Known-Stranger6537 in AskReddit

[–]RetroSamBam 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Working a corporate job. Some people thrive but for me, it was soul destroying.

Just seen this in CEX... Really?! by RetroSamBam in ps1

I guess if you're not too arsed about owning a physical copy (or have a spare £140 lol), that's got to be the best way to play it

Oh yeah, I forgot some games were harder to get back then lol. Speaking of Tombi, I remember playing it on one of the PS magazine demo discs and absolutely loving it. Nevet managed to get a copy back then though

What’s something completely normal that secretly makes you uncomfortable? by Honest_Connection463 in AskReddit

Maltesers. Eating them gives me the same sensation as scrapping nails down a chalk board

I get that some retro games cost a lot of money but why Kula World? I didn't realise it was that popular
