There’s a saying in America, “the number one predictor of your success is your zip code.”
Fuck racists.

20·6 days agoMe too. Except not quietly.
I find myself increasingly annoyed at having to grant copilot licenses for people who are inexplicably overjoyed to have them.
One playthrough in Nier: Automata is about 55 hours. The game subdivides itself into five chapters and gives each one a lettered ending. Stopping at the first ending is akin to stopping the bible at Deuteronomy and saying “neat, I got the whole story.”
Each further chapter is dramatically different than the one that came before.

75·15 days agoDream Quest had a similar aesthetic to this. The developer realized he couldn’t draw, had no graphic design sensibilities, but an astounding game design, and he leaned the fuck in.

It rivals Slay the Spire in mechanics, and it rivals my skill with MS Paint!

Playboy Mansion is a seedy shithole coming apart at the seams though. It’s the sort of place you’d put a party together and fight the animate mold growing on the walls. But when you find the treasure chest, it’ll just be full of dirty dildoes. Not worth the dungeon crawl to get there.

181·20 days agoI’m downvoting you just to use the button. I leave it there cause it’s a good sanity check, make sure I didn’t say something off the rails. But sometimes seeing a comment I made get something like 135/1 really makes me wonder what the 136th dentist thinks.

There’s a psychological horror game I play. Occasional jumpscare, but mostly just slow building dread.
It’s called You Need a Budget 4.

Games@lemmy.world•What are the best solo, free, PnP table games for someone coming from dnd burnout?English
19·1 month agoI would like to recommend Koriko: a Magical Year.
In this game, you’d play as a sixteen year old witch who goes to the town or city of Koriko to pursue witchcraft and make friends and develop as a person over a year. Using one game book (or a PDF), 21d6 which are primarily for stacking on top of each other, a journal which should look and feel like a spell book, and a deck of tarot cards, the game feels like Kiki’s Delivery Service meets Persona, and I adore it so very much.
My own version of Koriko is a massive futuristic megalopolis, and magic only works when the ingredients are grown from the ground instead of replicated.
I highly recommend this game!

Your post is exactly correct.




Life is Strange was perfect.
I also went to Arcadia Bay in real life, and found the most sleepy, boring town with a really good fish and chips joint. Aside from the good food, I came to appreciate more why Max and Chloe yearned to leave.
