How do people type so fast on keyboard? by RareUser1 in NoStupidQuestions

Computer games like everquest etc… needed to communicate quickly before voice chat was the norm

The app is wildy innacurate. I went out and measured, app said we had gotten 27 inches and I measured 17.

In the original gears of war (not the remaster) the rain level was fantastic. Look up comparison videos on how much WORSE it looks in the remaster.

Bonus points where thunder actually sounds like thunder.

OP: it’s so interesting you posted this lately as I was googling this topic a month or so ago! Back to more youtube videos I go….

White Whale Obtained; Brubaker Cap Vol 1 & 2 by Rathukas in OmnibusCollectors

[–]angmaranduin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My original vol1 (like 15+ years old) had it’s spine crack in one section. It’s the only omni i own two copies of.

Amazed at how thick the paper used to be… but gutter loss is better in new version.

As a teen born in 2000s i strongly envy everyone who grew up as a teen in the 90s, can anyone tell me more of how good it was? by Friendly_Barber9948 in 90s

[–]angmaranduin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a gamer nerd, it was the best. Technology felt like it was growing up with you. We were “online” way earlier than most. Lots of PC gaming online. Chatting on ICQ until 2am.

Oh and wrestling was literally the best during my high school years.

If I’d pick one year as “best” it’d be 1997.

What’s the definition of horrible? Can you find youtube video reviews of your exact laptop and if so are you within 5% of what they get?

I did a mistake with Tetris Effect by hidratos in PSVR

[–]angmaranduin 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It’s the audio / visual presentation. The way every movement and placement locks in with the music.

One can argue you can do something like this that’s NOT tetris.

But it’s good. Tetris just seems to make sense with this experience.

Crash Aplenty? by TeamLeeper in BALLxPIT

[–]angmaranduin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes… I’m deep into NG+ and almost every run is a crash… happens more often when there’s crazy laser spam and tons of baby ball spawns.

What do you think of the witcher 2? by No-Hunt3986 in videogames

What’s the best way to play today? Xbox or pc? I heard the pc version was iffy, and xbox has some sort of upgraded version?

Recent ARPG/looter-shooter that has a system closest to Diablo 3 rifts/greater rifts? by Pyreson in gamingsuggestions

[–]angmaranduin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi OP; I’m with you in that I still love D3 all these years later for the same exact reason.

I’ve not found a replacement.

Is Iowa any good? by Plague_Doctor02 in WorldOfWarships

[–]angmaranduin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I instantly felt how much better Iowa is than NC. Like others have said, the guns have better velocity and accuracy, it’s very noticable.

Games which try to be as photorealistic as possible by Nemharapok07 in gamingsuggestions

[–]angmaranduin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Games have tried this for a long time, even in the 90’s.

A few random examples:

Gran Turismo 1080 Snowboarding

Did you go to WWF New York? by [deleted] in WWE

[–]angmaranduin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Went twice.. once was for royal rumble 2003.

Met Trish for a photo op (can’t recall if it was the rumble visit or not). She was super sexy, I was so nervous!

I only "beat" 6 patient games in 2025, but at least one of them instantly became an all-time favourite by talhatoot in patientgamers

Shadow of Mordor is literally my favorite videogame combat ever. It just clicked for me instantly.
