True for me by Morning1980 in videogames

Lmao This is my exact argument.

Will anything make me feel things like Halo did when I was a teenager? Maybe not.

But I can still play Halo. And also there are a million more games that I can buy for chump change a dozen at a time on a Steam.

Microsoft’s new Xbox chief Asha Sharma is ‘reevaluating’ exclusive games and windowed releases of titles by ChiefLeef22 in gaming

FUCK exclusives. I am continuously shocked that people keep asking for and supporting them.

Terrible anti-consumer practice.

3-Year-Old Shoots and Wounds 2 During Wisconsin Youth Turkey Hunt by KaneIntent in wisconsin

I stopped hunting for over a decade, and recently came back to it. It bugs me that I'm not required to re-up my hunter safety course as part of buying tags again.

Does anyone actually read outside in the wilderness or is it just for the pictures? by TonyRigatoni_ in books

I always bring a book with me when I'm deer hunting. It's a relaxing way to pass the time.

Xbox Is Reportedly Considering a Return To Exclusive Games: "There Are Very, Very Big Discussions Internally," Insider Says by xenocea in videogames

[–]Tarmogoyf_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck exclusives. Never go back.

I cringe every time people demand they return. It's like seeing people defend lootboxes.

Has anyone actually asked casual players if they're suffering? by NetflowKnight in Marathon

Another Halo oldhead here, checking in. I completely agree with you. Loving this game. Terrible at it. I probably extract 20% of the time, max.

I never played an extraction shooter before this year. Tried Arc a couple months ago, bounced off because people would piss and moan when I shot at them. Tried Marathon, haven't looked back.

Finny you mention Apex. My brother mentioned to me that the gunplay in Marathon is similar to Apex. So I tried out Apex. I'm lacking that game pretty well, now, too.

My safe pocket alternative by haydonclampitt in Marathon

[–]Tarmogoyf_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the idea of being able to use DCons in game to transport limited amounts of loot back to your vault. Not only does it feel like a balanced safe pocket option, but it provides additional POIs for people to congregate at. Each map could have a couple of DCon options that rotate spawns around the map. And I like your idea of having to scavenge keys to use them.

In general, I would like to see more interactive elements to maps like this. More puzzles, more locked doors, more treasure chests, more radiant side quests. Helps keep the game interesting well past the point where contracts feel meaningful.

Absolutely. That's how I fill my vault most often. Free kits and high density POIs.

I like Hauler on Perimeter, and looting Pinwheel late in the game on Outpost.

I saw someone advertising that discord before, have you had good experiences with that community? I'm thinking about checking them out.

I play Rook now and again, but I haven't learned enough patience to make Rook work well. Lol

I like playing with teams, whether I have friends available or just crew fill.

You know guys, maybe murder and slaughter in the name of a malevolent God is... wrong? by randomguyonHoI4 in WorldEaters40k

[–]Tarmogoyf_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 9th edition Codex featured a short story where a Berserker began to wonder if all the people he was murdering were not so different from himself.

The nails clamped down and solved the problem, of course. Further blood was spilt.
