Reality vs Adventure

Cause men are assholes and tend to be bandits.

Man, looks like a must try

Does look interesting. I'll wait for a sale too.

So far this year it's been pretty good for me. I started off the year sending my system to the shop, but now things seem good. I've mostly played the ps4. I've got almost the whole series of Assassin's Creed, which I love. I just finished Witcher 3 story which is no small feat. I played Layers of Fear 1 and 2 and is the best psychological thriller; hard to beat and what an amazing blast into 2021. I'm also playing Outlast and Alien Isolation for my horror. Giving RDR2 another shot. Got into Ghost of Tsushima and such a treat. I am an emperor being fed grapes at this point. How about you? How has it all been going? What have you finished/started/love/hate??? Any goals made, games bought, records broken, achievements?

I'm curious about these too

Did it turn out to be good?

I haven't really seen much in horror for 2021

The game actually has a story? I thought it was just fighting

Is $10 worth it for ps4?

I recently got Mad Max and will start on it soon...been wanting to try it for a while.

A review can only turn me away from a game if it reinforced my suspicion on something in particular. I don't know where people's heads are at when they review, what they look for and all, but I have played many games that I really love and have low ratings. And I have played games that have higher ratings which to me wasn't really user friendly as a game. For example in Metacritic, I can go down the list from highest to lowest ratings and most of my favorite games are around 80 and below. I'm confused on that. Last I checked this was still Earth and was still spinning. A recent game I've played is Layers of Fear 2 with a score of 68. WTF WTF WTF. Too many people got too much mercury in their teeth and are brain dead. Do they just not get it??? Well, to me that game is brilliant. It deserves the highest awards. So they should see a dentist and get those old fillings out and I will welcome the new outlook when those neurons start reconnecting.

RE7 did a great job of the monsters, especially the ones that looked human. There is something really terrifying about that. I think they should keep them looking human for the most part, but maybe possessed or aliens that look human. If they get carried away with monsters that don't look human at all, then that loses fear factor for me.

It could be a signal that they don't want to make a sequel so the fans won't pressure it. Maybe they want to move on to other things. Also, drama sells. Drama just needs to be used appropriately and not thrown in there for a tear and farewell. To me that is a 'meaningless death.' If they were able to get you attached to a character and killed off in a meaningful way, then that death could be justified. But if there isn't much character build, then don't bother with a death of the main character. That cheapens it. It cheapens death. If death doesn't make you reflect on the character, then don't cheapen my heart.

Oh, that's right. There are a couple scenes that have that. But to know you can stop at that point and try again later is something worth the try to see if you can get through it. From what I remember, nothing like that appears till later in the story. I don't remember when the first scene happens that shows it.

You have the game and never played it? Freeze it right there. The world is on hold. Life can wait. The universe awaits you to play the game. God told me he will rain down emeralds if you play the game. If you don't, he agreed to puppetize you and put your hands on strings.

I just finished the main story and since I enjoyed it, I have to say it wasn't too long. It was a beautiful journey and highly recommend it to others who really need to give it another try. One of the best games. I still have the DLC to play and a bunch of quests.

FFX is really good. That was my first turn based game. I got all the way to somewhere around the final boss fight, but then went back throughout the land to build up and get stuff I missed so I never fought the fight. This coward will have his day! ahhh hahaha. ahhhh hahaha. I will have my day!!! 🤡

Bunkers? I think I did spot some clickers out on the prairie. You are right supplies don't last long. Especially when you mummify your hand in toilet paper. But, with all due respect, if they had bunkers in India they sure as hell would use it. But if they wanted to make a part 3, I hope they do take their time and go for a 3rd Game of The Year award. That would be legendary for the series instead of chasing money and release a not so good game just to keep pace with a tv show if they are planning multiple seasons.

I agree on that. When the show comes out they will have a better idea whether or not to make a part 3. But their trend is to release games on the last year of consoles before a new one comes out.

Another thing I want to add as far as gay and lesbian bars go, is in the Houston area there are a ton of clubs for gays and lesbians. There is a whole district that everyone in Houston knows about called Montrose that has all kinds of clubs and bars for them. Things do change though due to financial reasons in cities. Downtown Houston used to be loaded with clubs lined up and down several streets back in the day. Now there are only a few as the clubbing area shifted to the shopping district outside of downtown. Then that also changed and now it is scattered throughout. But one thing has always stayed in the same place, Midtown Montrose with all the gay and lesbian bars. So that assumption that the lesbian bars are disappearing seems non relevant to Houston. Houston is a liberal city, but in an even larger red state.

I’m not too clear how you believe trans are getting more attention or taking away at all from the lesbian community. But I think it’s in your best interests to work together because only the oppressors benefit in your division and when the system as a whole is fixed, then those inner community conflicts will be relieved. I read the link and am still confused.

I really should go back and give that game a try again. I never finished cause I got caught up in other games and the puzzles made me lose excitement. I did like the fighting a lot. Maybe I'll cheat the puzzles so I can progress. I do not function well with puzzles. My patience is broken. I start getting shaky leg syndrome and go boinkers.

I think sometimes a game throws in a dramatic event for an affect, but doesn't really fit into the game. I think what that does is desensitize us to games that are meant to be dramatic. So in order to keep drama strong, we need a balance of happy ending games too and vice versa.

Biden is quickly finding out that this country has to move ahead and bipartisanship no longer exists. I am very concerned about the voting rights bill that needs to be passed. As republicans quickly pushed voter suppression on day 1; we should have countered within the 100 days. But that would require getting rid of the filibuster since there is no other way it will pass requiring 10 republican votes, who as we know are a party no longer supporting democracy. That is the one thing that will protect democracy for years to come and it is completely partisan as republicans have another thing in mind passing bills across the country to make voting harder and all the while claiming fraud while they recount ballots in Arizona without independent witnesses. And this is something we will see happen in every state where democrats won. Nothing really matters if voting isn't protected. But that didn’t happen the first 100 days, so maybe in the next 1200 days? Everything else is just a return to normalcy. Normal is good. Biden is doing the right thing. As far as immigration, I don’t know why it’s so hard to build an international refugee camp paid by an international effort to provide shelter, food, and medicine. Have a program to help them move into a country and have a skill program to fit into the workforce. This is a humanitarian crisis and needs to be treated as such. And there should be more women than men operating it cause dirty men will rape all the girls. White supremacists will flock to the area hoping to rape and abuse vulnerable people. Cause that is who they are. I’m glad Biden mentioned white supremacy as the greatest terrorism threat to this country. But he should have extended on it and give us assurance that he will utilize every resource possible to combat domestic terrorism and give us some kind of plan or bill on what he wants to do. Because just calling it out isn’t enough. Fear is the only vocabulary terrorists know. Take action. Make them feel extreme fear. That is the only language they understand. They love authoritarianism so let’s show authority against their operations. Crack down on extremism in the military. Any extremists needs immediate discharge and there needs a campaign to boost the confidence in reporting behavior of soldiers as well as the ranks and to be protected for doing so. Same with the police force. These are things I really want to see happen. We know there is a problem, give direct solutions and I have to criticize that I haven’t seen any strong movement there. This is the last chance for these things so Biden better jump on it, dive in, belly flop, I don’t give a fuck. Tear down the terrorists. Otherwise, you might as well recruit ISIS into the military and let them carry guns to capital buildings since terrorism is not a serious threat. (sarcasm). He has tackled the Covid problem which is good. You can’t do much about the mentally challenged people that deny the threat of the virus and work against community safety. I just hope we can throw their bodies in a pile one day and burn them directly to hell. Besides the normalcy of policy issues, my main issues I wanted to see more of was measures to fight terrorism, voting protection; police reform; and the cleaning of extremism in military and all government positions. You can’t clean those voted in, but you can clean those appointed. There has been some progress in that area, but show me bills how to prevent the politicizing of government positions. Show me bills where a president can no longer fire or appoint so many government positions. That was ridiculous what trump was legally able to do. No sitting president should be able to appoint the head of FBI and other positions like that and the attorney general needs to be unpoliticized also. The positions needs a general vote if needed. That was scary to see Barr (previous AG) fall in step with trump. There needs more checks and balances. Those are bills I wanted to see the first 100 days. I am grateful to have a president who is working for the interest of the people and country. But if nothing is fixed about the things I just mentioned, then pucker up with the wettest lips, and kiss democracy goodbye. * Protect voting * Weed out extremism is military, police, and gov. positions * Attack domestic terrorism * Tackle covid Those should be all our main concerns since it directly affects the country as a whole.
