While I do like games like Gigapocalypse and some of the Vampire Survivors-inspired games, not being able to select my own targets or move when I want to is lame.

 
 

She is correct. Too many people these days have skin of dryer lint 1 atom thick. What too many people have done with cancel culture is no better than what the likes of EA have done with microtransactions.

 
 

It is quite bizarre that Crunchyroll decided to fund the roaring dumpster fire known as High Guardian Spice rather than spend that money licensing high quality anime.

 
 

The plaintiff in a court case submitting a part of the their documents as a comic book is pretty funny, though I'm not sure how the judge will respond.

 
 

I hate greedy corporate dirtbags so much. Firing lots of employees or cutting their hours then making customers do those jobs just so that the dirtbags at the top can get more money is a disgusting move. Shit like this is why I rarely use self checkout.

 
 
 

It would be great to use one of these guns in Doom or a Doom mod. It could probably vaporize a Baron of Hell in 1 shot.

 
 

My calico cat Spot had 7 kittens last month: 4 black & white (2 of them have vertical white stripes on their face), 1 black and brown tabby, 1 brown and white, and 1 calico. I hope Spot knows what she's doing.

 
 

For being a restaurant that sells a lot of chicken, KFC has no strategy with their chicken sandwiches. I swear, they have completely different chicken sandwiches every year or few. The heck is going on with them?

 
 

What smells worse to you? 50+% pure isopropyl alcohol (such as rubbing alcohol) or 50+% pure ethanol alcohol (aka drinking alcohol)?

 
 

I hope this will be a great game. Farming game and mech shooter is an unusual combination, but it could be very interesting.

 
 

Here is a GOG discount code for Destroy All Humans!: 4Z7D48F341B38A0D0D The discount is for 55% and it ends in 3 days. It's definitely one of the best remakes I've played.

 
 

Here in Michigan, the winds have picked up, a thunderstorm might happen later today, and we might not get much rain. Also, a goose appeared in the front yard, which is new.

 
 
 

I hope Norwegian Cruise Line's lawsuit succeeds. Cruise ships are a terrible place for a virus outbreak, and requiring everyone to be vaccinated is a wise choice. If No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service is acceptable, than so should No Vaccine, No Service.

 
 

I'm learning about how to use the Python programming language. It's been easier than I expected, and I am surprised that arrays aren't a built-in part of it. The Monty Python references wear thin very quickly.

 
 

I enjoy games and game mods that are crazy power fantasies. Calling down lots of missiles on bugs in Earth Defense 4.1 and 5 or playing Doom 2 with a slaughtermap and the Russian Overkill mod while killing countless demons is just a lot of chaotic fun.

 
 

At this point I wonder what prevents so many rightwing voters from getting the vaccine: them still believing what Hair Furor (D. Trump) spews out, them believing anti-vaxxer nonsense, them associating the vaccines with Biden, or them not trusting science.

 
 

The engineering required for commercial space flight is interesting, though I'm also interested in governments taxing space tourism. Some of those UFO sightings could also be debris on the camera, in addition to software glitches.

 
 

I hope more guns in Doom Eternal will get a hot rod flames skin. It looks pretty great on the shotgun, and it would be nice to see on the chaingun.


 
 

So far, my favorite thing about the Biden presidency is how boring it is, especially when compared to the insanity of Trump. I don't want politics to be a reality show. I want politics to be useful and extremely boring.

 
 

I got a pizza from Motor City Pizza Company. It was pretty good! It had a respectable amount of cheese, the cheese did caramelize okay enough on the crust, though some more meat on the pizza would have been good.


 
 

To anyone who wants to start a new game of Doom Eternal, Extra Lives mode disables mission select. I wish I had known that when playing the DLC. Also, they are STILL trying to get people to play Battlemode with event XP.

 
 

The estimated total square area of solar panels needed to supply all the electricity humanity needs is smaller than I thought. Also, I didn't expect installing a massive amount of solar panels could potentially cause terraforming.

 
 
 

The latest Ziggurat 2 update is pretty nice! We get several new weapons, 2 new player characters, and some amulets. The Archon Staff excels at crowd control and is one of my favorite weapons of this update.


 
 
 

Happy Independence Day! Might want to turn your headphones down.

 
 

Possible spoiler for Doom Eternal DLC in the comments below.

 
 

Well, Sony is run by petty cowards. They decided to not give Yahtzee of Zero Punctuation a review code for Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart cause they apparently didn't like ZP's focus and tone.

 
 

About Electric Reaperone of us since 10:55 AM on 08.12.2013

I am a gamer who prefers games that are more about action than story; especially shooters, action RPG's and hack-and-slashers. I often don't care that much about a video game's story, and instead focus on the weapons instead: how they sound, how they fire/attack, how they look, how they function, and how the more unusual weapons may work. Sometimes a game may be great in just about every category, but I might just ignore it for using boring conventional guns that I've shot a million times.

I am into sci-fi, supernatural, and mecha anime/TV shows/movies/games. I don't care that much about photorealism, unless it drags the gameplay down.



Over the years, I have seen a lot of stupid/unwanted things in the video game industry. Online passes for multiplayer, on-disc downloadable content, day one DLC in Mass Effect 3, pre-order bonuses for Brink, multiple versions of Evolve, collector's edition for the first Watch Dogs game, microtransactions in Dead Space 3, and more. I have also seen things that get in the way of the customer accessing the game they legally bought. SecuROM in Crysis, Games For Windows Live in Red Faction Guerilla (removed over a year ago) SecuROM AND GFWL in Bioshock 2 (both removed years ago), always online DRM in Dead Space 2, Origin in Mass Effect 3, and Denuvo anti-tamper in Doom 4 (it might not get in the way of playing the game but I still have a deep-seated hatred for it). Why does the game industry keep doing this crap? Is ticking off your customers with these draconian measures really worth a week or a few months of zero piracy?
