Just Cram It


Personally I wouldn't buy a game on console whose biggest features are "modding" and "being able to unfuck the hundred bugs with the console", but to each on their own, easier to just play instead of 1000h of mod prep.

Edit: Wow, bad snipe uuuuhhh Switch rules.

It adds lots of community made quests that you used to be able to buy separately as DLC. It’s a few good quests but they’re all unlocked at high enough levels so it’s not really apparent what gets added if you’re starting from scratch.

I started up my save with my level 8 character, warm in his own house with his housecarl outside chopping wood, and the survival stuff kicked in (it asks).

Debating whether or not to reroll with all of this stuff from the beginning. Alduin's dead in my playthrough, maybe I'll finally finish the civil war quest.

The code might be janky and bad, but my god, that game is :discourse:

Anyway, I looked up the differences between the free stuff VS paid stuff in Skyrim AE, and wow, I might actually spring for that. Initially, I was only interested in survival, and having the Sheogorath quest in Solitude is nice, but jfc, the amount of stuff added in for paid AE is :stare:

You can go (back) into Oblivion!

Hearing about this tied in nicely with a bit of an itch for some 2D Mario, so I've re-installed Mario Maker 2 to give it a go. I too haven't even touched that game since the Worlds were introduced and it turns out there's a few popular ones, so I've got a bit to be going on with.

I've just never really been able to jive with user created content in Mario Maker 2. I hate myself for it because I don't like the idea that Nintendo are the only people who "get it" and nobody else can capture that same "magic" - what a dorky mindset that would be - but I can't put my finger on what else it is that I can't vibe with.

I think the following from Astro7x is as good an explanation as any and I feel similar to this.

Either way, wow, the amount of energy and work that goes into these is incredible. I did enjoy the first couple of levels so I'm going to stick with it.

The only custom levels I have found that really capture the magic of what Nintendo is able to do is the "Newer Super Mario Bros' levels. I think being limited to the NSMB tool set probably helps, because sometimes people tend to just put poo poo into Mario Maker levels simply because they can.

Porting New Vegas seems like a hellish nightmare, but with all the money they have (and their relentless commitment to porting Skyrim) I am surprised that Bethesda haven't done something to get it (and Fallout 3) on modern consoles in a more elegant way.

A lot of design choices have to be made because players need to be forced to do something. There is a large segment of players who need to be actively prevented from doing boring things or cheating even if they don't enjoy it.

Nevermind this; anyone who's interested in survival mode, rare curios, fishing, and/or Saints and Seducers should just boot up Skyrim anyway; all those things are included free, without buying the anniversary edition/add-on.

So, now I'm curious as to what the add-on actually adds... on. Bunch of gear?

It goes beyond rules. If punching yourself in the balls was 3% more effective than eating candy then people would focus on optimizing the force and speed of punches

Got drunk for the first time in a long time last night, wound up buying Various Daylife without properly looking into it. I, uh... yeah, mixed feelings.

Edit: been doing the research I shoulda did before buying it. Really regret dropping 30 on it. Game is worth like 15 tops.

Nah no plans. Probably just Nintendo and PC. It's complicated with that game and team and it's a miracle that this happened!

Please do post with your thoughts! I'm really happy with this release. Lots of special little touches.

I will say though that I haaaaate one of the very early puzzles so if you find yourself stuck trying to get a tire hug the bird costume guy an additional time. Ugh, I hate this because normally Dropsy only hugs people when they want to be hugged.

Will definitely give some feedback sometime before long. I've not played much of it at all yet but just from what little I have played, I'll say that so far I am *loving* the art style/aesthetic and the tone to it all
