Stellaris, Rimworld, the Sims, and a lot of stragedy games.

Scaphism, but specifically for corrupt politicians.

The thing with a lot of the methods mentioned is that I’ve seen both teens that are more mature than me, and people in their thirties that should probably have their internet privileges revoked.

EVE always fascinated me, but at the same time how beginner unfriendly I’ve heard it is + feeling like I’ll probably not last long before I get killed off makes me wary of trying it.

If Outer Wilds counts as AA, then I’ll nominate that next (even if I still need to finish it)

Hypnagogic hallucinations

Howl’s Moving Castle. Not that I didn’t enjoy the book, I just preferred the movie more.

Granted the author was quite young when he started the series (15) to when the first book got published (18, first self published then republished by an established publisher a couple years later). He’s came out with a new series recently, but I don’t know how much better it is.

And while I’m not saying the books are anything great, they’re still a far cry from the movie imo.

What if it’s a candiru?

I would never play it myself so I’m not sure how much this counts, but there’s something about Garten of Banban that keeps drawing me back to it whenever a new episode drops. I’m well aware it’s just some shitty bottom of the barrel reaction streamer/theory crafting bait and it’s mostly me wanting to see where the train wreck goes, but I think I’m enjoying it on an ironic level too.

As someone who’s into a lot of VR stuff, the biggest problem is that it’s still a niche market that requires the consumer to be spending a lot on extra hardware in order to play it. Obviously the majority of studios would rather invest in something more people can play and therefore buy, and at most will maybe add a VR mode to their first person game. I’ve found VR modes and mods for games not initially developed for that sort of hardware to be more engaging and have more substance than most of the ones specifically made for it (and is most of the VR games I play), but being able to play in VR does enhance the experience imo depending on the game.

What do you mean? It’s a restaurant, they serve pizza and have a salad bar. I’ve been there a bunch of times as a kid. It’s a restaurant man, what are you talking about?

Or multiple vindictive crows.

Granted a lot of the failures with Anthem was thanks to corporate meddling, like EA forcing them to switch to an engine mid development that wasn’t equipped for the game they wanted to make as they insisted on using something in-house, and then forcing them to release it in an unfinished and buggy state. Iirc the devs even cared about the project too, but once again EA ruins something.

I remember thinking it had some neat gameplay concepts from the footage I saw, it just needed more polishing.

I’m a female queer SA survivor if they ever try that bullshit on me lmao.

Wonder what will happen if we put Yandere Simulator’s code in there.

Male abuse/SA victims. It’s already not taken seriously enough when it happens to women, but when it happens to a guy they get put down even more and told to “man up”, sometimes even by people who’d support them if the sexes were swapped.

An electric kettle for the water and loose tea with a strainer. I’ll usually make it in a mug, occasionally a small teapot, or a thermos if I’m traveling.

Stellaris and Rimworld. Replace Rimworld with Minecraft if including non-Steam games.

Also pirate the game if you want to play it. The devs have encouraged it after how the company treated them.

What horse drug are centrists taking?
