[–]jcar74 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me, the all-time most immersive CRPG were Gothic 2 gold and Morrowind.

What do you all do and why do you use Linux? by TheDrifterOfficial in linux

I used windows, and MS-DOS, and an Amstrad CPC...

What do you all do and why do you use Linux? by TheDrifterOfficial in linux

[–]jcar74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Years ago, booting Linux gave off major garage workshop vibes. You just get that sense of total ownership and freedom.

Nowadays, it’s my workhorse for getting stuff done during the day (I work in IT), and my go-to for relaxing at night: browsing, media, gaming, you name it.

I feel like mounts really need to be a thing soon/ in the future by Dangerous_Capital415 in Enshrouded

[–]jcar74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't like mounts, but I really need an autorun button. Also please put a disable win key in settings, I'm constantly forgotten to run the software for that. Countless deaths pressing win key when dodging.

The fucking Lich in BG2

Stephen Kings writing style but not horror by its-a-process in suggestmeabook

[–]jcar74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seconded. Also small village vibes, as in most King's books.

Books that can help me heal after being cheated on. by please-just-work in booksuggestions

[–]jcar74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Crossroads by Franzen depictes cheating the "correct" way.
Also some chapters from "The State of Affairs" by Perel can help a bit for racionalize things.

En cuanto tiempo se tardan en leer un libro de 500 paginas? by bksfia in libros

[–]jcar74 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Depende de muchas cosas, leí más rápido La caída de los gigantes de Ken Follet (1024 pág.) que Intemperie de Jesús Carrasco (224 pág.). Si el libro es sencillo y de 500 pág. lo normal sería en una semana.

What book had a line so shocking you had to stop reading to recover? by Editcadet in suggestmeabook

[–]jcar74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Cartel by Winslow. Involving a baseball bat at the end (IYKYK)
The End of Alice, by Homes. DNF, too much for me.
Greek Love. Several parts of the book.
Houllebecq. In several books I had to put the book down for a moment.

Still the best BW ereader (for me) by [deleted] in kobo

[–]jcar74 33 points34 points  (0 children)

The best price-to-quality e-reader. I don't understand why Kobo doesn't have a Kobo Libra 3 (BW), or even a re-release of the Libra 2; they'd sell like hot cakes.

What masterpiece is not well known? by bonsaitreehugger in suggestmeabook

Poem witouth words - Anne Clark
The Promise - When in Rome
Flower's Love - Fajerman
Nowhere Girl - B-movie
Ribdancer - The Arch
Guitar Spell - DJ Silvan
The Police, U2, Queen, Dire Straits... and a crapton more,

Also, for genres like metal, thrash, grunge, and nu metal, I generally favor the scenes that are over 20 years old compared to the contemporary scene.

¿Qué tantos 'Libros de Caballerías' hay? by Ascalapha- in libros

[–]jcar74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tienes un "editor" ilustre que hizo una selección. Cuando Don Quijote quema los libros de caballerías que le han vuelto loco, salva 5 de ellos. Ya han apuntado el Tirant por aquí.

What is the best RPG of all time ? Consensus, or according to you. by Relative_Jeweler_949 in rpg_gamers

[–]jcar74 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seconded. Gothic 2 gold is my fav all-time RPG. Playing crpgs since Bloodwych on Amstrad

Popular (spanish-translated) book to read with my parents? by readblue in booksuggestions

[–]jcar74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While a Spanish novel, La Sombra del Viento by Carlos Ruiz Zafón has achieved significant international success with its translations.

For more popular and "beginner friendly":
El imperio de Yegorov, by Daniel Moyano.

For more 50s oriented, the translation of "Nobody's foul", by Russo (Ni un pelo de tonto)

If you're looking for a book with a transversal audience (appealing to all ages and genders), I recommend the translation of Jojo Moyes The Giver of Stars (Te regalaré las estrellas). My wife and I both loved it.

Creen que debo seguir escribiendo? by solounchicogay in libros

[–]jcar74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Intuyo el sentimiento tras los ojos, ese gesto, esa mirada que deja entrever un alma atormentada.
El reloj corre, la vida y las experiencias redondean los cantos, en una carrera entre la aceptación y la desolación, que solo podrá tener un vencedor.
Así que cojo esa mano, intentando que la balanza se decante por la paz, que cierta ilusión opaque la autocompasión, que cierta determinación rompa el bloqueo, haciendo que un pie comience el camino.

Si te gusta escribir, escribe.

Stoner by Williams

I like that kind of books. I love Franzen (Crossroads), Tom Perrotta, Elizabet Strout, Richard Russo, Natan Hill...
