I don't know what is happening, but it seems to make you happy, so that's nice.

I was thinking about getting Dead Space 2 cause I couldn't remember if I had played it or not. I was checking for the lowest price and ended up on Amazon, and there was a banner at the top that said "hey you already bought this for ps3 in 2011"

Trying out Xuan-Yuan Sword and I've always had a really hard time with Chinese names, or any east-Asian names in general (locations, cities, eras, names). They all sound so similar to me I have a lot of trouble telling them apart. But for some reason I don't really have this problem with non-English western names, or even fantasy names (which I guess are based on western languages).

Good on 'em. It was fun revisiting DII last Christmas, I'd probably look into that if it were properly Mac friendly.

I didn't realise there was DIV gameplay, looking like a possible worthy successor 0_0

Bring on the kung-fu amputees - no arms vs. no legs anyone? A bit of high-speed underground ninja-tunneling is always good as well. I wanna see some shit like that. Crazy monks with gnarly special powers can make any film good. FACT.

I always felt like Titan Quest was the real spiritual successor of D2. It felt very right to me in all the ways that PoE felt wrong.

I guess I never got super far in it though, so maybe it turns into the same dull instakill strobelight-fest in the late game.

I haven't! I'm pretty sure if I did, it'd be a problem again. It doesn't seem wise to try.

Weirdly it doesn't appear to carry over to gacha, I'm continuing to enjoy Genshin Impact and I've still only spent $5 on it.

I think it's because real gambling lets you dream that maybe you'll come out ahead, but games don't. If I'm MAXIMALLY LUCKY, that would just get me shinier ingame stuff, I'd still be out the money. That's not very tempting.

Also, thanks for asking, I appreciate it! I think it helps to be mindful of these things.

It's their fault, if they were better at aiming the aliens wouldn't shoot them so much.

Between you and me, XCOM recruits are a bunch of suckers and losers. I prefer the ones who don't get shot.
