That could be a lot of fun. But a lot of people would have to be able to stream in order to play it with one another. Except @Shagger and @Crazycrab since they're brothers.
But as far as challenges go, I like how RDR2 works. It has a list of challenges for you, as well as stranger missions, and you can also set your own challenges as well. Like trying to get everything of something in your compendium. Such as every plant, or every animal. That's a lot of fun, in my humble opinion. I really like getting all the horses.
I'm actually writing an article on the horses in RDR2. As soon as I get it finished and proofread, I'm going to publish it here, and want a lot of feedback from as many people as possible. But it will be sometime next year (most likely February at the earliest) before it's done and ready.

Social media sites have been the good, the bad, and the ugly when it comes to incidents like these. Some people can use face recognition software and correctly identify people involved. Others can say something like "Hey, that's my cousin!". But then others just say they think they know that person. The worst say that a person is definitely the criminal without knowing anything about them or their activities before, during, and after the incident. So social media can help, but often doesn't help, but in fact makes the situation worse. Especially for the one they're accusing.

They may cost a bit more, but they're fully customizable, whereas android isn't. I had one and you couldn't even choose a wallpaper on it.

I would have said that you should watch the video clip of her shared by @Heatmanbut it seems to be in a dark setting, you may not fancy it.
Dark is always best for me. Whether you mean dark as "low light" or dark as "goth" is irrelevant. Dark is best for me. I keep the lights off in my house, and actually have to wear sunglasses half the time inside anyway. I'm beyond extremely photosensitive.

The fear is a fear of small holes in large groups. One thing you could google is a lotus flower. Or just google trypophobia and see what images come up. There's also videos on YouTube that cover phobias. Matthew Santoro did one that flew me into a full blown panic that ended up getting paramedics involved. I was stupid enough to look at the thumbnail for the video and lost it. Unfortunately my fear also extends to bumps in large groups as well, as they pretty much look the same as holes to me. Although holes are a bit worse than bumps.
The worst part is that my fear is so severe that it can stop my heart, which could possibly kill me. @Rain Dew has had to come home from work many many times to "talk me down" so to speak after I came across something like this on YouTube.
It's a proven fact that some phobias can be potentially lethal. This one is for me. You could check out this thread for more of the discussion.

It does look a lot like Silent Hill with a hint of Resident Evil and a splash of Outlast. That being said, the character movement looks kind of weird - like he has diarrhea and is about crap all over himself kind of walk lol.
You twisted son of a bitch, I'm going to be laughing about that in my sleep tonight.
I have to watch the Family Guy episode Mom's The Word now.

I've handled a few and the headsets were always heavy as hell in my opinion. I assumed people would get a lot of neck pain from using one. It's one of the many things that has turned me off from VR gaming. Aside from the physical limitations I'm stuck dealing with.

I noticed it today. YouTube has had over 1 trillion (1,000,000,000,000) views of Minecraft content. I knew Minecraft was popular as hell, but I didn't know it was that popular. If you don't believe me, check out the screnshot I took of it.

Haha. it has a bit creepiness in it so yeah if you hate those "Not safe for Mind" type of the horror then avoid this one too.
That's not what I mean. I'm referring to my trypophobia. I love games that are psychological horror/thriller games. But I have to be careful about some stuff, and I wasn't sure by the thumbnail is this video is something I could watch.

If I'm paying that kind of money for a poster, it better be printed on the back of a first draft of the frickin Constitution.

And Blackangel I've been playing acoustics and shredding 80's style for 40 years! These are good times to get really good stuff cheap if you shop well.There's some amazing tech out there for cheap.
I have a Yamaha acoustic and a Fender Squier electric. I just need to find a teacher that can accommodate someone in a wheelchair.

Here is the best of Letty in the movie Fast and Furious. I'm sure you will find it interesting.
I couldn't even watch that whole clip. The racing at the beginning was boring, and the camera wouldn't hold still for more than 2 seconds in the fight scenes to the point that I got both dizzy as hell and a massive headache.

This OCD thing is something that's more common with ladies than men. A friend of mine complained about not being open to having friends over at her place because she can't relax when they start scattering stuffs all over.
I'm more comfortable having people over to my house than I am going to theirs. I've always been like that. And I do have to agree with you on the frequency. There does seem to be a higher number of women with OCD issues than men. But men with OCD are usually just called neurotic, so that may be part of the reason for the numbers.

RDR2 is virtually the only modern game I truly enjoy on an emotional level. There are others, but they are few and far between. It’s exceptionally rare for me to have this kind of connection to a game.

My NES & SNES games all have the dust covers they came with. Nintendo stopped using dust covers after the SNES, but all mine still have one. If you do get some plastic containers, you should know that even though you may not realize it now, even the ultra thin NES dust covers will take up a lot of space in each container. So you will most likely have to get several.

At the moment I don't even have the money for the system so I'm not worried about it. Plus, I like the look of the white sides. it's a nice change from black for the last 3 generations.
-
Typically it can't hurt. But what's more important than adding a dust cover to your game is how you store your whole collection. Do you leave them out, or keep them in a sealed container? i keep mine all in a sealed container. It prevents humidity an dirt from getting to them. So I highly recommend doing that.

You have classic gamers like myself, who would never let that happen. If you gave me the option of paying RDR2 on my PS4 or Clash At Demonhead on my NES, 9 times out of 10 I will pick Clash At Demonhead, despite it not being one of my favorites.

I don't know. Some of the games would not be a good idea to remake for VR. Some of them, while they would be a wild ride, just couldn't make it. Things like Marble Madness would never be able to be a VR game. Others are just impractical. Considering that the vast majority of classic games are side scrollers, it would be more expensive than it's really worth to try to give them the VR treatment. Try SMB3. How exactly are you going to use that raccoon tail to fly in VR? I highly doubt you're going to go outside and run across your yard.

I'm pretty sure that licensing will be an issue, because it always is.. Just recently the PS2 era of Metal Gear Solid games got taken off the PS3 store and PS Now service due to licensing.
..but regardless of that, there's also a lot of dross that gets released for consoles too. It makes no sense for some titles to be available that might only get downloaded once or twice in a year - if that. Of course, if Sony said they're just making "the most popular" games available, there's also the problem of everyone having their own opinion of what are the most popular games.
You're spot on with that. The only way they gauge what was the most popular is by the money spent to buy the game when it hit shelves. If gamers spent 60 million in the first week on Game A, and 20 million in the first week on Game B, then they will assume that Game A was the most popular one. What they don't factor in is how many bought it because the box looked good, but in turn ended up hating it and wanted their $60 back from GameStop. Also the price of the game matters. Game A may have hit the shelves at $60, while Game B hit the shelves at $40. But they don't care. Bigger numbers=higher popularity. Higher popularity-bigger profits. What we think and want, unfortunately doesn't matter to the ones at the top. AS long as we keep spending our money, that is all that matters.
For example one of my all time favorite games is Blaster Master. It's an NES game. It was virtually unnoticed when it was released. Now the only ones that even know of its existence are those of us that played it in 1988. It's also one of the most difficult games ever released. The gamers of today will have one hell of a hard time with it. Sunsoft made several follow ups to the original, but they were largely overlooked.
Now, (with the exception of Nintendo Online) they wouldn't even be legally allowed to try to port them to a Switch due to the licensing, if Nintendo hadn't acquired Sunsoft in the early 2000's.
It seems to me that it all comes down to money, and ownership. If you have the money, you can own whatever you want. And stop others from enjoying what you own, if you're so inclined.

This is definitely a whole lot of games that you have managed to keep the record of till date. Were you ever a librarian before?
No. I just like things to be well organized so I can find it easily when I need to. I've been told that I'm at the point that it looks like an OCD thing, because of how organized shit has to be. If it's not in perfect order, I start getting rather bitchy and can't focus on anything else until the item in question is fixed.

These leather companies must have heard a lot of such reviews about their products and should have done something about it by now. I most times cover the surface of the leather before sitting on it.
Ps. There is nothing wrong with a lady loving a car. You have watched Fast and Furious, Letty was a lady she she can damn drive well.
Actually, I haven't. I've never seen any of them. Muscle guys with muscle cars just isn't my thing when it comes to movies. Hell muscle guys aren't my thing at all in any capacity.

It was a couple years ago. It was during the iPhone 10 era. So whatever android was out then. I had it for all of 2 weeks before I took it back and got another iPhone like I had had before. I was sick to death of not being able to personalize a god damn thing. Not even the ringtones I had downloaded.
