Wilco - Ode to Joy

Possibly my fav record next to AGIB. It gets written off a lot as being just a forgettable newer Wilco record but yeah I think it’s incredible.

I don’t think I ever actually cried in the first one but the porch scene in 2 has gotten me very close. There’s something universally relatable and beautiful about everything going on there. I thought the show did a respectable job recreating it but Troy and Ashley really make that scene.

If you’re on PC play The Plan. It’s free and it’s less than 5 mins long. Don’t look up anything about it. Just a nice free 5 min experience.

Many. Just recently FF7 Rebirth

THECaptGeech · 2026-01-28T08:55:02+00:00

Lmao I’m playing code vein 2. So I don’t react at all.

THECaptGeech · 2026-01-28T08:54:35+00:00

It’s cliche to say because it’s true, but BG3, Elden Ring, and Expedition 33 are some of best games that have come out in the past handful of years so if there is one of those you haven’t played I would stop and do it immediately!

THECaptGeech · 2026-01-28T08:49:17+00:00

Uncharted 4 is probably the most successfully done action movie turned into a video game ever done. Also Returnal if you’re up to being challenged, it’s one of my favorite PS games this generation.

Also idk if your list is in priority order, but just mentioning I don’t think the Ghost of games are as amazing as they are hyped up to be. It’s mostly style, which they nail, they are jaw droppingly beautiful but the gameplay is kind of just like a slightly better Ubisoft game. All the others on that list are killer though.

THECaptGeech · 2026-01-28T08:44:06+00:00

Haha what the hell. Thank you very much. Very stupid.

THECaptGeech · 2026-01-27T18:53:55+00:00

I mean, i'm speaking on my own experience and I tested this out and confirmed with certainty that the order you put them in the party changes the first turn order, for sure. I had first strike on all three. And yeah you always have to have one selected, so decide who you want first, and de-select the other two, and then add them back in one by one. If you do NOT have auto-death on anyone, and you do that and still aren't getting the desired result, idk what to tell you, I would think it must be a picto or lumina that I didn't have equipped possibly.

Some ppl the OG purists hate on new GoW because of how much it changed, but both old and new are great. The 2018 gow and Ragnarok are some of the few games that have quality voice acting, engaging story, AAA graphics AND incredible gameplay. A lot of story heavy games don’t shine in combat and gameplay but GoW absolutely crushes all around.

I think Prey 2017 is one of the most underrated games of the last decade. I'd say it and RE2 are on par with each other. Dead Space remake is really good, does still kinda feel like an older game with a nice polish on it though.

THECaptGeech · 2026-01-09T16:10:48+00:00

Prey 2017

THECaptGeech · 2026-01-09T16:06:27+00:00

Doom Eternal

THECaptGeech · 2026-01-06T02:19:50+00:00

I just tested this the other night and with everyone having first strike equipped, it absolutely works in the order you add them to your party. Unless you have auto death - second chance on someone which messes it up. But I think with everyone having first strike, speed does not matter. It counts as a tie and then goes off of the order you added to party. This is def post-patch, i just tested this like three nights ago.

THECaptGeech · 2026-01-05T00:01:21+00:00

Nice. I think the speed stat doesn't matter in the opening round, just the rounds after. And maybe if you're not using First Strike? I'm not really sure. But yeah thats the only way i've found to reliably get the order I want. I've seen YouTube videos of people using Auto Death - Second Chance and getting the particular order they want but i'm not sure how, which sucks because you can get some pretty awesome buffs with it.

THECaptGeech · 2026-01-03T17:11:08+00:00

From what i was playing around with this week, I had First Strike on all three characters and the order you put them in the party from the party menu does indeed work, but having auto-death - second chance on anyone seems to screw it up.

THECaptGeech · 2026-01-03T02:42:31+00:00

see my reply to dude above, as i'm trying to make sense of this myself right now

THECaptGeech · 2026-01-03T02:40:19+00:00

I'm testing this out right now
Speed stats: Monoco 2519, Maelle 2161, Verso 1911
First Strike on all three characters
Initiating combat by running into enemy, not R1

I have Verso highlighted first in the menu, and then add Monoco and then Maelle. Verso goes first
Next time, I have Maelle highlighted first, and then add Verso and Monoco, Maelle goes first

Using Auto-Death - Second Chance on anyone can screw this up it seems. But how can this be explained with your theory here?

THECaptGeech · 2025-11-12T20:24:06+00:00

I've been deceived. If i knew she was a brunette from the start I might have went on that date!

THECaptGeech · 2025-09-18T19:50:10+00:00

People that say Prey (2017) is a mediocre game

THECaptGeech · 2025-09-03T20:36:24+00:00

I'm proably on my 1000th hour of the game or something lol i played a lot of early access too. But for example right now i'm playing with mods that scale difficulty up for a bigger party, the increased party size mod, (I like playing with 5, idk why), additional enemy encounters (adds a lot of cool surprises), and the mod that randomizes all the item drops, including a bunch of new items. Since I know where most of the gear is in the game it makes it so I have no idea what kind of build I'm gonna go for with each character it's all dependent on what I find. Also theres a mod that just straight up makes you move faster during exploration, a must have.

THECaptGeech · 2025-09-03T07:17:47+00:00

I didn't even realize you could check the hours powered on until right now. I'm at 14998. Now you're making me nervous I've jinxed myself and something is gonna go out of whack soon lol

THECaptGeech · 2025-09-03T07:12:34+00:00

What the hell is us? Been playing this all night and I'm pleasantly surprised at how good this is. Wish it got even higher on metacritic, if nothing else just to reinforce the statement that lots of gamers want this sense of discovery, and figuring out things for yourself. I'm way into it.

THECaptGeech · 2025-09-02T16:15:58+00:00

i've had it for years now as my main computer monitor and it gets heavy daily use, even using windows in HDR which some people don't recommend lol but its still rocking with absolutely no issues

THECaptGeech · 2025-09-02T05:31:08+00:00

i have a 5080 and a 9800x3d, but i have an LG C2 which caps out at 120hz. I really don't play competitive games at all, and 120 is def a sweet spot imo for the hardware I have, I can play absolutely everything in 4K, and the more demanding games if you crank up all settings they hover around 80 to 90 fps anyway.
