It's 2006. I am taking 276 yeti furs from the goodies hoard.
I didn't like what I played of Horizon much but the bow and arrow feel really good, and I also liked setting up mines and tripwires and stuff even if they weren't very useful. Really wanted the latter in breath of the wild

i played a lot of Magic the Gathering's Arena and it put me into an eight month coma.

what broke me off this was buying one of the season passes last year and realizing how little it gives you. I just play commander on webcam now but it was fun coming up with gimmicky decks to play with

A while ago, a buddy and me used to play Final Fantasy together. We chose the order based on preference, but knew that we'd like to eventually have played them all.

We also knew that Final Fantasy 2 (not US 4, actual 2) is not a good game. However, after struggling with the weird-rear end mechanics a bit, and with a guide explaining how evasion works, it became...actually kind of fun? You can Toad/Teleport any enemy, but even without grinding that up high enough to actually be able to do that, just specializing in a weapon type, buffing every battle with Haste to get attacks sky-high and grind it, and trying to get lots of gains on the side was kinda chill.

I even replayed it later on my own. Gotta admit tho, it was the GBA version, which allows you to save anywhere. I liked it enough to do the Dawn of Souls extra content. It's neat and unique.

That’s honestly the best in the series I think. Malaria pills and exploding rusty guns kinda sucked the first time I played it, but after subsequent games turned the player into a nigh-unstoppable stealth superhero, it’s actually kind of interesting to have one of these games go out of its way to gently caress you over

I think a lot about those videos comparing far cry 2 where you could shoot a rocket in the air and see it arc and fall down to modern ones where the rocket keeps going in a straight line forever

the ppl who directed FC2 intentionally made the animal death animations really minimal and boring so they wouldnt reward unnecessary cruelty, which i think is extremely badass in the same way as Albert’s nonviolence speech in Twin Peaks is. lol. and then all the sequels had you hunting exotic animals for crafting supplies

I was obsessed with the SNES Wizard of Oz video game for some reason. I would go back and grind out extra power ups in levels I had already finish and could beat the game in a single sitting as a kid.

Hey what's up it's DR comin at you with another YouTube walkthrough, this time for the hotly released Ubisoft masterpiece Far Cry 5:

First you're gonna want to unlock the Shady Woods fast travel beacon by completing the Weed Priest quest line. Head north through here on your upgraded Humvee tearing rear end through the wilderness which will eventually lead to Calm Waters Pond. Deer will spawn here if you've unlocked the lvl3 tobacco perk. *sprints 12 solid seconds up to stationary deer whcih doesn't react to me* Now it's time to HUNT! *blasts it from 3inches away w/a shotgun* They should drop 1 leather each. You need just 3 to upgrade to the Leather Wallet, which allows you to hold a magnum condom for the next cutscene.

Duke Nukem forever.

I don't know if it was me justifying staying up all night playing it on release or if I just didn't want to admit to my flatmate that he was right but I liked that game when I did my first and only playthrough of it.

i fired up Skyrim for the first time in a long while to play over discord with my brother and it's a lot worse than I remember. like I think we accepted it was bad but we just liked it, but I forgot how bad. the voice acting in that opening movie is so fuckin weird, lol. there's one guy talking normal, one guy talking like he's reading his lines for the first time, and one woman is yelling at the top of her lungs and emoting like she just got cast in a high school production of Medea. I got to that first town with the golden claw and a potato shot off the wall and almost killed me.
