It'll get cheaper. So far developers haven't really figured out how to make VR games that are as fun as the best non-VR games. Presumably it'll come with time.

when you live in an MMO do you live in a more realistic version of it where you still have to like eat and use the bathroom and sleep and you get tired after running for an hour or does it mimic the game mechanics more exactly

I can’t really get into TCGs because of their inherent pay to win nature.

The only reason I like mtg irl is because I can just draft without engaging in that aspect (it’s pretty cheap if you just fund your drafts with the more valuable cards and winnings you got from previous drafts). Also a friend has a sweet cube that is fun to draft.

I think the continued success of mtg despite its many flaws stems from being basically the only tcg (that I'm aware of at least) with limited that isn't poo poo

I guess most of the kickstarters that burned me were from unproven people but still preordering two or three years before the game releases isn't something I want to do anymore

I played the WiiU Mario Party at PAX to kill an hour with my friends at the end of one of the days and the fact that games are down to half an hour instead of being three hour slogs is amazing. If the price of that is the car then so be it.

No emulator that expects you to gently caress with plugins can be called "good" though sometimes there is no good emulator for a console

That musta been the last split, cause the longest run on the leaderboards is 19:49:25.

I think the game had just come out like a month or two earlier and it might have been the actual very first attempt at 100%

Chat (especially voice chat) with randos is the loving worst and I think less of a game just by virtue of it having an active chat scene (some games have a chat feature that's relatively underutilized by the playerbase and that's fine)

Anyways I filled today with Donut County and Doki Doki Literature Club so I'm set to play Atelier Ayesha when it arrives tomorrow. DDLC was pretty overhyped. If it's the first work of its type you've read it's probably pretty mindblowing but I feel like I've read the same thing but better a dozen times by this point.

Donut County was cute and fun but I got weird racism vibes from how the raccoons were portrayed. Like, everyone was saying "everything was great in the neighborhood until the raccoons moved in" and it felt just a little too close to real life stuff to be handled by a cutesy game with no introspection.

I mean in the game they were ruining everything but fiction tends to make things the author wants to present clearcut
