    How was this not a red flag? I was hoping I could fall asleep just letting YouTube pick news videos for me while I laid in bed with my laptop. I was wrong. This video came on about a teacher who had an "affair" with one of her elementary students. I was just about to fall asleep when the...

    General Racing (any type) Thread

    There are a couple of race manager games for F1 and one for rally. I've got this one which is made by the Elite Dangerous, Planet Coaster devs: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LoKSdzT89A I might check out Golden Lap. Trailer looks pretty good.

    There is this weird and morbid Internet murder fetish where you keep making someone fatter and fatter, but I can't remember the name of it. But I think this is what my wife is trying to do to me. She was supposed to be the one who bought groceries this week, but instead she ordered restaurant...

    April 2025 General Game Discussion

    Did you say before that you'd already had a successful run or am I misremembering? About the cutscenes, I had a game where I kept accidentally clicking with the mouse during cutscenes, which instantly skipped to the end, and I was actually wanting to see the cutscenes. That may have been a...

    I read it, and I disagree with it. His reason is just arbitrarily applied based on his personal preferences. "Cause turn-based" is not a good reason. This is mostly incorrect, but probably how most people think it works. I have Steam back-end access, so I looked it up. The developers do not...

    April 2025 General Game Discussion

    I'm officially, and I'm serious this time, cutting way down on my video game purchasing. Right now, as of this moment, I believe I may very well have the best "Now Playing" list of games in my lifetime, headlined in the AAA category by Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Oblivion Remaster. I've...

    Headphone random conversation

    Don't think about your mom giving you those headphones. Um, let's just say you won them in the company Christmas party raffle. I've decided I would probably keep them. I would feel like the world's biggest loser if I actually paid that much for headphones, so this is the only way I'd ever get...

    A love letter to the games that made our lives better (add your own impactful games)

    I wonder if maybe at some point they didn't split the team up and start working on another game. That's kind of what it sounds like. To make these things work forever, it would seem that if you aren't a massive studio, then you need to just concentrate on the one thing so that you can keep...

    Played some more Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and still absolutely loving it. **** But let me tell you, then I decided to take a break tonight and try out Oblivion. I got to the character creator, and the "randomize character" button is like playing Five Nights at Freddy's. Every time a new one...

    Get all the information you can while people are still alive is my suggestion. Some day when you are old and bored like I am, you might wish you knew more about your family. By the way, sadly, greatness skipped a generation in our family, but I'm fully expecting it to pick up where it left off...

    Thanks. An update came down that was supposed to make CFG usable (distilled CFG works, but it actually doesn't do the same thing as CFG, so I'm not sure why they ever considered that a good solution), but I guess when they said CFG was usable maybe they just meant you could now take it from one...

    I've decided to write a family biography about my father's side of the family. We already have one for my mother's side. That one goes back to before the Revolutionary War. This one will be easier because my grandfather was a doorstep orphan, and so all our information stops with him...

    I'm not getting sound on this laptop at the moment, so I can't watch now, but skimming through it looked like the "Kill the wabbit" opera, which is definitely a good one. _------- The AI whizbangs at reddit are neither whizzes nor bangs and are completely useless and only try to deflect...

    Headphone random conversation

    So if someone handed you some $60,000 headphones and said, "Happy Birthday!" would you keep them or sell them. I'm torn. At a minimum, I would open them and listen to them, which would knock a chunk off the price.

    A love letter to the games that made our lives better (add your own impactful games)

    What happened? I never played it, but from reading PCG it looked like it was going great for a long time and then something just blew up on them and they never seemed to recover. I know people were at least temporarily angry when they removed old content from the game, but not sure other than that.
