What? I remember only small parts of the game being an rts. Didnt really like that part, but it was definitely not “the entire game”

Ive been a nintendo fan my entire childhood and early adult life. I would say i am (at least clasically) nintendos target audience. I agree with the sentiments in the video. Nintendo is doing a lot of shitty consumer hostile things and people forking up ever increasing prices for decade old games will only validate their business practices and quality will further decay (like the games industry in general). That is essentially what he is saying. I will not buy the switch 2 (this video did not change my stance either way)

Granted his overly negative rant was a bit tiresome, it felt like he was impersonating the angry nintendo nerd without the comedy. But that just feels like any other yt video rant these days

Iirc (and the story was not complete bogus) the first game was designed for it but some exec didnt like it and forced hud and minimap late in development and is why it feels easy and repetitive if you play with minimap. Wouldnt be surpirsed if ac2 then was not developed with that in mind and would explain why it doesnt work as well

They had some years of crazy partying between end of ww1/the spanish flu ine the late 1910d and the great depression and fascism really got hold in the end of the 1920S tho, so couldnt we at least get some of those years first?:(

For those more updated than me, what are your thoughts on Skyblivion and Skywind?

I love my surface duo for ds emulation!

I recently finished main story in bully on ps2 (emu). About 55% completion after end mission, and 11 hrs. Did some additional missions to get me up to about 65% and then retired the game as im not all that crazy about hunting down blue rubber bands and whatnot. Did most of the classes, but lacked a few art and photography.

Moved to another ps2 title now: jak & daxter the precursor legacy. No experience with this series before, but enjoyable first 45 mins which is what i have been able to play so far.

Neverwinter nights still on the backburner for now, and tomorrow i will play some kind of multiplayer game with an old uni buddy of mine, but not decided which one yet

I remember appreciating the old school feel of the cockpit screen in the x-wing in rogue one. They did not try to modernize that at all

Those are on my to-play list for ps2-games as well!

Been continuing my playthrough of bully on ps2 (emulated) since last week. About 35-40% in now. Really enjoying it. Controls are abit clunky and the story can seem a little incoherent at times (eg suddenly a character has disappeared from the school right after doing a mission where he was very much present), but overall it is just alot of fun. Not big on collecting things so wonder what % is needed to complete main story. But got my eyes open to ps2 catalogue now as i never owned this myself and there are lots of gems i have barely or never played before. Was recommended the other ps2-era rockstar games red dead revolver, the warrioes and manhunt last week and i will check those out later.

Intended to play some more neverwinter nights, but didnt find the time. Had a real dnd session tho

Maybe you want to communicate through an encrypted service?

Ive recently picked up Bully for the ps2. Only about 5% in but finding it entertaining. Reskinned ps2-era gta with the same kind of humor. Still have neverwinter nights on the pc but not picked that up in a couple of weeks because i died on a boss and i dont like to die (im not patient in that sense). But also liked that and will try to play some more this week end.

I think it does. It is in invaluable tool for me to choose my next game and the farther from release the more datapoints make up the playtimes :)

The Nordic countries are about to ban gas.

No we are not. The 2025 100% ev target in norway was always a target, and there was never talks of a ban on ice. Were somewhere at around 95-100% new sales being evs but you can still buy ice and wont be prevented from doing so atleast in the forseeable future. Rest of the world just went on assuming that it was talk of a ban. Its not. Well probably follow suit with whatever eu is doing when it comes to actual bans.

Ive started neverwinter nights for the first time ever :)

Huh?

uBlock Origin works fine on Firefox-based browsers on Android at least.

Of newer games i am considering super mario bros wonder or tears of the kingdom. But i also never played metroid prime (had it on gc but hated the controls) - just not sure if i want to play it on wii (i liked corruption controls) or the remastered version om switch.

Ill probably also start a ds game i never got to play in parallel.

Maybe uncharted on ps3? Never playes those. As you can see i have not yet decided :p

I loved true crime! I was a gamecube kid so having something gta-like felt pretty cool when most “mature” games would skip the consooe entirely. Some weird stuff towards the end that put me off a bit iirc :p
