I remember him saying some pretty questionable poo poo in some series he did outside the main show. My brain is too bad to remember what he actually said though so maybe he's fine.

Chat thread!

I am, once again, asking for your posts.

Someone in... I think it was the Steam thread but I can't find the post once shared a screenshot of their Steam categories and they were separated by "Energy levels", having Low/Mid/High/Weird energy categories, which I think it's a brilliant way of deciding what to play depending on where your head's at.

So, thread, tell me about your "low energy" games.

I've been playing Siralim Ultimate fairly often when I have the time recently since it's easy to just pass the time grinding while I'm watching something in the background. Easy to turn off my mind.

Also agree with the Everyday Genius Squarelogic and any Picross game recommendations!

I have to remember to make kushikatsu for the group for completionists' sake.

(But probably not in real life because it involves both deep-frying and skewers)

1st was Steep and AC Origins
2nd was AC Odyssey
Now it's Division 2 and The Crew 2

Yahtzee is a Hat Guy so he has a 20 point penalty to being considered good.

I don’t play sports games at all really, but something about the premise of Steep as an open world snowsports game really got me. Just wish it appealed to any of my friends in the same way.

When gamergate rolled around he didn't directly comment on it but he was much more concerned about people who get offended by things than by the harassment going on and used a really, really gross analogy to convey that.

I don't think he's changed that much since then. Some years ago he was doing "Let's Drown Out" streams where he talked over a game with some friend of his and eventually I got tired of his centrist tendencies and complaining about the SJWs, etc. He has not evolved at all.

I remember watching some Yahtzee reviews here and there back when they were only 3-5 minutes long and considered him much a much improved counterpart to TotalBiscuit, one with a sharper sense of humor who got straight to the point and didn't post long winded screeds about atheism and how smart he was in GBS.

But more recently I remember a goon sat down to watch like 50 of Yahtzee's reviews in a row one after the other and their takeaway was basically that he has, shall we say, issues... with women. And looking back yeah, that makes sense.

yesterday my sonic chronicle almost came to an untimely end when i ran into a terrible bug partway through chapter 5. across the whole chapter you're switching between two teams led by sonic and tails in order to make your way onto a drifting angel island before it can be attacked by the villains and at a certain point, the game just...stopped switching when it was supposed to, leaving me stranded as tails with nowhere to go. some research led me to believe this was an emulation error, and since i was playing on my wii u via virtual console injection, i don't think there's really much i can do about it. reloading the save didn't work, skipping the cutscene didn't work, it seemed like the end of the road

some might say this is a sign to stop playing a bad video game, but i'm a stubborn fool. so here we are again, on my pc, where i've taken matters into my own hands


i'm delighted to learn that speed really is sonic's best stat at max level! at the beginning of the game it's his defense

I don't know if I have the patience for a full playthrough these days, but I don't think I've played anything quite like Morrowind in terms of worldbuilding and immersion and also I've fallen down a lore-hole on the Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages and can't get out, no seriously please help I spent a good ninety minutes last night reading about Bretons and the Reachmen it's not even relevant to the poo poo I'm doing in-game.

I've been down that Wiki hole and there's a lot of good lore... that basically never comes up in the actual games. Meanwhile we get plenty of quests where we get to play with "HEY THATS THE NAME OF THE GAME" items willy nilly while you become the mega wizard of the world by demonstrating you can burp on command.

They are good, but not necessarily for racing and flight sims, you want a controller with physical feedback to match the real experience and that's not something that can be done with a free-floating motion controller

No Man's Sky lets you use motion controllers to fly your ship and there's a long adaptation period as you get used to the joystick not pushing back or returning itself to neutral and learn to do those things yourself

Even though I'm enjoying Morrowind at the moment, I have way, way more fun reading about the Elder Scrolls than I do playing any of the games.

Like the fact that the sun and stars are holes in the fabric of the world that let magic leak in, and were left behind after several of the gods noped the gently caress out during the creation of the world when they realised how much of themselves and their power they would have to give up to finish it.
