One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."
I'm excited to see Minecraft Legends this month. I'm not afraid to say it. It's the studio that did Dungeons, right? I mean it's all Mojang I guess I just don't know if they have different teams or what.

Wiki says it's a joint development between Mojang (dunno what team though) and Blackbird Interactive (Homeworld series, Hardspace: Shipbreaker)

No Switch or Steam crossplay, only between people playing via Xbox.

Honestly kind of relieved now I don’t have to play it with them, they are massively levelled and I’d feel bad dragging them down. Plus the game doesn’t really interest me anyway.

I DON'T GIVE A CRAP WHAT SHE BELIEVES THE HARRY POTTER BOOKS CHANGED MY LIFE #HUFFLEPUFF

Yeah, as one of the biggest advocates and boosters for Monster Hunter, if you are emotionally sensitive to animals in pain, even to capture vs kill you have to beat the things to the brink, and they really show it. Parts fly off, damage shows up, limping, frothing, panting. When they stop and pant in pain and exhaustion, that's the part where you're supposed to hit them the hardest.

And really, I totally get it. I took a long break from non-Nintendo consoles and found that, coming back this year having had a couple of kids, I can't play games where I shoot people. No matter what the context or enemy, if I'm shooting a person and they're going "hlaguauga" and dying, I just can't stomach it.

This is really great to know. Thanks. I know it's stupid because it's just pixels but it'd be a bumper if they're animals just living their life and not like monster animals destroying a town. Also if they seem to be in distress and don't just, you know, die in a puff of smoke or something.

Remember at the start of the Doom 2016 thread that goon that kept calling Doom, R***** 4? It was super funny when the game came out being great and everyone making fun of him?

There’s plenty of other reasons to not play doom eternal. Mostly that it stinks. Love my fps to be full of jumping puzzles and moba cool downs.

I think the idea of, "this is a large, one-of-a-kind animal just tooling around its native habitat; now I gotta go kill it," just makes them sad. Not necessarily a moral stance against other people or that they're unable to acknowledge that it's all just pixels and storyline.

Just, killing a big beautiful thing there's only one of produces a negative emotion. Like I said above, shooting humans bums me out. I played an hour of that sniper game a couple of months ago where the whole appeal is blowing Nazis balls off or whatever and it just made me sad to be doing it. Nazis are bad and deserve their balls blown off, and the game isn't real it's a theme park ride. I know all this intellectually. But the actual act of doing it made me feel bad.

JFK Reloaded 4k remaster when?

I wasn’t a huge fan of the resource management combat loop that the game very clearly wants to force you into, but that’s fine that’s whatever. Not for me.

As a UX artist the game offends me on a deep personal level and makes me want to rip my dick off with a claw hammer.

yeah I have no ill will if you like Eternal it just wants you to play it in a specific way and it is not a playstyle that I vibed with

Look it's fine if you like it but glory kills are loving stupid and the way both dooms do resource management sucks. And the first game has some of the worst level design imaginable because the entire game is a bunch of arenas that lock with monsters spawning in.

Yeah the hard turn into tactical resource management is completely antithetical to what I want from DOOM (running around blasting freaks while metal plays and I laugh maniacally)

oblivion and skyrim were released on the same consoles lol.

I meant it's possible that part of the scale I remember is due to multiple long loading screens and the cities wouldn't feel as big if everything loaded practically instantly thanks to SSDs.

Anyway Doom Eternal was awesome.
