i tried starfield on gamepass and got to the first combat bit where i shot a guy in the face point blank with a pistol and he did the gamebryo thing where he didnt react and maintained perfect eye contact with me while strafing away and slowly firing and i immediately uninstalled

morrowind in unplayable if you're an adult and can choose to play something else. of course the world is incredible, but you have to interact with the game is the problem. best to leave it within the realm of nostalgia to never be besmirched

:hai: Gamepass was the only reason I even played it. Did a few story missions and stopped once I realized most of the game is navigating menus

basically bethesda has been huffing their own farts for too long and decided the reason people play their games is definitely NOT because of the sandbox worlds to explore but because of their amazing combat and writing so they amde a game where its just fast traveling from one lovely combat/dialogue to the next then making the loving surprised pikachu face when nobody likes it

Morrowind is the greatest game ever made. I'll die on this hill.

Been watching :siren:youtube videos:siren: from a guy who has been pecking through installments of Tamriel Rebuilt, plus some other high effort expansion mods, and hearing that Morrowind soundtrack in the background of his clips and watching him talk about how he navigated a little corner and had more weird adventures for 30 hours makes really want to drop everything and plug in Morrowind again with all my eclectic mod preferences.

Oh and he stopped to play this great mod that some insane Russian nationalist made to carefully recreate a defunct Russian military town in Ukraine that he grew up in and it's amazing.

I played Starfield on gamepass and got to the part where you get to the explorers' clubhouse or whatever, and one of the people offered to show me around the clubhouse, but in Bethesda fashion some script didn't fire off and she just stood there staring into the middle distance. I went back to load a previous save, but that didn't fix it, and then I found out that the gamepass version of Starfield stores its save files in a weird way that you can't actually access the files, and I thought "that's a lovely basket to be putting all my eggs in" and then uninstalled.

Also, lol that it's already 30% off on Steam after only three months

theres a door in fable that only opens if you are evil and the quickest way to work around this without just being evil the entire game is eat a bunch of live baby chickens in front of it

The food stuff in Fable 2 ruled because if you ate any meat or drank beer you'd get fat and ugly but if you ate vegetables and tofu you'd have perfect skin

No, unfortunately, there are numerous crazy people who pumped a lot of money into this website hoping to become big name C-SPAM posters. It's like all those popular Harry Potter fanfic writers vying for book deals, except it's internet drama that will never manage to lead to IRL success.
