The cool thing about mods is that there's always hundreds or thousands of people willing to make them so you don't have to.

Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.
I tried to put a texture mod on a game once, but it was too complicated. Screw that.

They used to call me tricky-kid, I lived the life they wish they did.


I don't like any of the Souls games or Bloodborne. I've tried them, I can't get down with them.

I have a 3ds and a Switch but I can't stand the amount of anime crap that get's published for them.

I'm sick of all these overly complicated multiplayer fps' and am eagerly looking forward to a game where I can shoot people and not have to worry about layers on layers of perks and killstreaks and digicammo on my balls.

When you want to look up in real life you tilt your head back. When you want to look down you tilt your head forward. Same deal with a mouse to look in a video game. I CANNOT UNDERSTAND HOW ANYONE CAN DO IT ANY OTHER WAY I CAN'T. I don't judge you for it, but it is absolutely bizarre to me. It feels so, so wrong. Invert forever.

Mods in general are stupid. Not always. Sometimes they're really cool and inspired like the Song Of Ice And Fire mod for Crusader Kings 2 is excellent. But i feel really bad for people who compulsively install ridiculous numbers of mods in a strange quest to completely change how the game appears and plays out of some very incorrect assumption that they know what's better for the game than the devs did

Assuming a first person view: when playing PC games with a mouse I use "normal" style controls. When using a controller (regardless of platform) I use inverted. You could have me play the same game on PC versus console and I'll change the control style between them.

I thought the reason was that while you're in a cockpit, staring upward stupidly at a bunch of nothing and hoping to glimpse a UFO, the plane does a nose dive.

racing sims are the most skillful video games, surpassing fighting games and shmups by a country mile. the only people who disagree with this are the same people who can't break 7 minutes on the nurburgring.

A real good racing game would have you in a chariot throwing spears at people in other chariots. You could customize the graphics and have Scythian blades on the side to mow down people who get tossed overboard.

Better that some lame game that at its best emulates watching fuckin nascar (except in these the cars don't even blow up, what a loving scam). But I guess pay what you want and get one of those cute little steering wheels and suddenly you're up to filet mignon, huh?

No, SpaceClown. You are either a jester or a fool. gently caress racing games that don't have powerups and explosives.

nah, racing games with powerups and explosives are for shortminded children.

continually cucking the guy behind you with dirty air for the duration of a race is eternally more hilarious and fun than pressing a button to launch a missile that does all the work for you.

similarly, analyzing an opponent's driving style and braking patterns over the course of a few laps to finally pass him in a strategic move is forever more satisfying than whatever stupid other poo poo you do in games like cel damage and mario kart

additionally, no game has quite the ability to consistently provide such massive feelings of achievement as when you get really good at hotlaps. because we both know you suck too much to play multiplayer.
