This is an underpinning of the plot of Final Fantasy VIII, where a sorceress with incredible power is entombed and sent to space, and her screaming drowns out all the radio frequencies on the planet.

This is vital information for my everyday life.

I can’t do it. I have to be actively making decisions and having agency in my entertainment. I end up playing video games, or board games.

(The board games I end up playing are usually the sorts of solitaire board games with a huge campaign and a grand sweeping narrative. My favorite board game of all time is Etherfields, for example.)

Funny enough, I was in this situation. Didn’t really grow up in a culture and time that was heavy about Star Wars. Someone pointed out to me that my last name backwards was Anakin, harped on me to watch Star Wars, and I got about forty minutes in before I realized I just wasn’t into it.

There are still some of us living under rocks.

You have your satisfaction by selecting hard. You don’t need to deny an easy difficulty to others.

Or are you the sort that would pick easy if you saw it?

Also this whole conversation is dumb because, until you get off your ass and make a game, you have literally no input whatsoever.

I’m gonna go back to my PS2 Silent Hill play through on beginner difficulty, where I can whack guys once instead of five to nine times. It’s the vibes and the environment.

Dude, just let everybody play everything. And if you have to glance at “easy” real fast to make sure you’re not pushing “hard (developer intention)” then that’s fine. Hard is still there.

And thanks for the downvote. I don’t know if you’re interpreting a downvote as “doesn’t add to the discussion,” or “this makes me angry” or “you shouldn’t be disabled, you fucked up”, but it just goes to show what’s up. No one else came along in the last 33 minutes.

Hi! I’ve had two strokes, and my hands don’t work as well as they should! Should I be excluded from the hobby, so you don’t have to look at an extra menu option?

What you’ve got here reeks of elitism.

Disability comes for everyone. Sometimes death gets there first. You aren’t unique.

I’m not about to provide you with masturbation material.

Women. Queer people. Non-white people. Hell, even white straight cis evangelical Christian rich men who die from being sick.

There will be so much death.

It will be unending.

We may yet manage as a country, but the millions that die from this election won’t get to see it.

Until some bastard up on Denali shot a football through it, just so humanity would feel loss for the first time in 15,000 years.

They grieved over a bulb cause they hadn’t lost anything else.

MOTHERFUCKER, YOU ARE A GIRL GODDAMN IT

I am now reading every goddamn one of these you write. If only the other screenshot posters would put forth your respect and effort, we could have an honest gaming journal going.

I like the effort you put into these posts. Much better than just a simple screenshot. You’ve sold me on this game.

Trans and disabled, so that limits my options a bit.

I think I’d just go back to 2011 and just vibe.

She skewers you.

Let’s go with A Monster’s Expedition Through Puzzling Exhibitions!

Humanity has died through hubris and climate change, and Human Englandland is all flooded. Now it’s the age of monsters! And one monster is touring the now-outdoors old Human Englandland museum, which is an archipelago cause flooding and such. All the bridges washed out, but there’s convenient trees! Let’s go see the museum.

Pushing logs from trees into adjacent water is the point of the game, but it has some of the simplest yet best mechanics about it that I’ve seen in a long time.

I’m playing it too, mostly I’m just struggling to go whack Heismay and instead just playing Monster’s Expedition yet again.

Monster’s Expedition never gets old.
