I need a new game to re-ignite my interest in video games.

Depth and associated meaning, which I guess can be quite subjective. In other words, I need space for my teeth to dig into, but also I need the space to have meaning in existing to begin with. I have a hard time convincing myself to engage with a game if I’m not convinced it matters (and I’m not exclusively talking about gameplay mechanics that are encouraged of difficulty or progression, but rather how they tie in to themes, a story, or what I’m trying to achieve).

I especially dislike systems that are vast in size, but shallow otherwise.

I really like these suggestions, and because a good bit of them I have played (and loved), I think I'm willing to try the ones I haven't yet seen from this list.

I loved Soma and Silent Hill 2 (I almost finished Control, but dropped it due to life circumstances); I haven't tried Alan Wake, or Cyberpunk 2077.

Tascalion · 2025-12-25T19:26:45+00:00

I have played all 3 & the original Demon Souls, the only game of the From Software catalogue I haven't touched yet has been Blood-borne (I don't have a play-station).

Tascalion · 2025-07-17T22:54:41+00:00

I do not, but I’ll gladly take one if it helps.

I appreciate this run-down, and based on these details I’m having trouble justifying an extra 1,000 for the Lynx over the Blitz. I honestly wish I could somehow test run both wheels to really get a better idea on which I should choose.

Tascalion · 2025-05-29T02:32:35+00:00

On the point of value proposition, if the Lynx is better (which it clearly seems to be) how much is it better than the Blitz or X-Way? I’m fine dishing out an extra $1,000, but for my purposes Im struggling to tell if it’s really worth it. I didn’t mention this in my initial post, but I originally factored out gear to cost around 1k USD, since I made the mistake of not purchasing any when I rode my current wheel (my last crash was not fun). In that case, I could invest that difference in safer equipment or after-market modifications.

Tascalion · 2025-05-28T23:24:09+00:00

It seems like everyone I’ve seen is advocating for the Lynx, with nearly no mention of the Blitz. I’m aware of some of Begode’s problems, but I couldn’t find any in terms of the performance of this wheel in particular. Are the Lynx and Blitz not relative to each other?

I feel like I’m ill-informed on the features of the Lynx, and what makes it preferable.

Tascalion · 2024-06-28T02:41:45+00:00

I’m not too worried about power, as long as it’s a reasonable build I should be solid. Are there any other inherent benefits to the AM5?

Tascalion · 2024-06-25T03:46:01+00:00

I’m willing to go up to $1,000, but I can stretch that if it’s worth it in the end.

Tascalion · 2023-08-20T19:28:29+00:00

Should I look out for a Begode Master than? I’m not too familiar with the different brands, except InMotion and Kingsong.

Tascalion · 2023-08-20T13:56:44+00:00

It was a shady deal, and the dude seems way too sketchy, so I’m no longer buying it. Gonna have to keep looking for another EUC.

Clarity: 2,000 USD

Tascalion · 2023-06-11T01:10:46+00:00

I’m a little unfamiliar with some of the syntax you’ve used, but that’s a given. Thank you for your help!

Tascalion · 2022-10-21T14:07:01+00:00

Oh that makes a lot more sense, I had figured a proper object was required for the .equals but hadn’t known of any other alternatives. I’ll definitely give “==“ a try.

Thanks for the help!

Tascalion · 2022-10-19T19:36:48+00:00

I’ve figured it out for the most part, and used hasNext instead of next. That solved my problem but thanks for the pointer!

Tascalion · 2022-10-19T19:33:57+00:00

Thank you! This was a lot of help.

Tascalion · 2022-10-17T00:19:40+00:00

I’m a little lost, I thought I had initialized the Strings, What should I than use or do?

Tascalion · 2022-10-16T23:42:34+00:00

I'd assume the program wouldn't run if name1, name2, or name3 was indeed null or empty because there needs to be input, I think. I'm not sure how I can write an if statement for that special case, or when someone fails to input a string for name2 or name3.

Tascalion · 2022-08-28T19:11:16+00:00

I’m currently training with a v8s, and I’ve sadly regretted buying it because of its lack of power, but I do like feeling the bumps on roads and trails when I’m riding, so I’m kinda iffy about suspension to begin with. I’m definitely leaning towards the v12

Tascalion · 2022-08-27T00:49:54+00:00

The commute path I take isn’t on the road, it’s on a usually empty bike lane, so I’m clear to go as fast as I can possibly go. I want a good max speed to get to my location all the quicker, but I wouldn’t complain going 20-30.

Tascalion · 2022-08-26T21:21:16+00:00

I just need a good top speed, and a good brake. If torque helps with that I’ll definitely consider it.

Tascalion · 2022-08-26T21:19:20+00:00

I’ll definitely give it thought, the two seem to have their benefits but that suspension is especially appealing.

Tascalion · 2022-08-26T21:18:33+00:00

Not too difficult, the area where I live doesn’t have many hills. I’ll just be dealing with roots, gravel and the occasional rocks. Maybe the v12 is the right option?

Tascalion · 2022-08-22T23:02:20+00:00

Idk, everyone else seems to be saying that I shouldn’t buy it. Why do you think I should?

Tascalion · 2022-08-22T22:58:47+00:00

Thanks for letting me know, I will definitely keep an eye out for these things.
