The Blackangel

As we said in the greatest decade ever, the 1980's: Rock on dude!

Exactly. I can't see anything. It's tunnel vision on steroids. I can't see what I'm doing, where I'm going, or what's around me. And as another example, if you're hunting an apex predator in a game, how are you supposed to react if it comes up from behind you? You'll be lucky to know, because a lot of them move so fast and silent that you don't know what the hell is going on until you're already dead.

In response to @Empire's post HERE I'm giving this a bump, as it seems more relevant now.

What damn difference does it make? You don't have a clue how big or small my feet are, so what's it to you? Who said anything about wearing them under my shoes? I wear them as slipper socks, since everything on the bottom is rubbery.

It all depends on the game. Some games just couldn't work in one of the two view points. For example Layers Of Fear: Legacy would never work in third person. It would completely break the immersion of the game, and the horror aspect would be gone. And that's what the game is. A first person Rose Red-esque horror game. But take a game like RDR2, and put it in first person, and the only thing I will do is die repeatedly. I can't see a damn thing in first person in that kind of game. I have to be able to see the environment all around me, or I'm wasting my time even owning the game. One game that I will always love that's first person is Hexen. That one is great, and was honestly my introduction to first person games. I had never been into Doom, because I was never a big fan of games that required a gun. And I'm still not, for the most part. So I never really saw any kind of first person games. If the creators want to offer both viewpoints on a game, then that's on them. I think it would open up their sales reach drastically. But some games just can't pull off one or the other, and still be a good game. My 2 cents anyway.

She and I have been together for 17 years.

Where are you from?

I've done all the confirming I need. I have the socks in my possession. What's left to confirm? Are you saying I'm a liar and that such socks don't exist?

I already said.

Anyone have any special or specific plans for Thanksgiving next week? I’m going to be doing the same thing I did last year. Sitting at home with a can of corn. @Rain Dew spends the holidays with her parents, but I don’t have anyone to be with. Her parents and I hate each other way too much for me to be around them without getting violent. So TV and a can of corn is my plan and my dinner. Same as last year. My Thanksgiving dinner was a can of corn last year, so I see no reason that it would be any different this year.

Surprise, surprise.

Holy shit.

I know Red Dead Revolver was technically the first in the entire series, but I'm going to talk as if it never existed. I've watched @Rain Dew play RDR a few times, and it looks as fun as just about any other games. But I'm an RDR2 addict. And I mean ADDICT. I'm not asking peoples thoughts on a graphics basis. I'm asking your thoughts and preferences on a gameplay basis. Of those that have played, (or watched others play) the both of them, which do you prefer? Like I said, RDR looks like a lot of fun. I saw her play, and I've watched a shitload of videos on YouTube. But I'm still into RDR2. I just can't get away from it. The prequel story, just has so much more dramatic content. There's loyalty, treason, love, hate, war, peace, successe, failure, and it's all internal withing a gang that is closer than blood. I would literally kill for a family like that. A place where I am accepted for who I am, and no longer the worlds whipping child. I could have joined the Folk Nation at one time, but chose not to. Here we go again, I'm getting off topic. But to sum up, RDR2 is my game. RDR has more redeeming qualities than I can list, but the prequel is where I'm at. God, I'm way too damn obsessed with this damn game. I'll start talking about bottling up my dogs farts and using them as chemical warfare. At least that topic would get me off RDR2 for a while.

One thing I neglected to mention is that I was a cowgirl when I was younger. I was a bullrider as a teenager. Now I'm a total city girl. Needless to say, the pressures of my previous life, are happily left behind and forgotten.

I know I'm breaking the rules a bit, but I had to narrow it down to a possible 7 games. Evil Inside Hades Darkwood Immortal Realms: Vampire Wars Make A Killing Creaks Demon's Tier+ Hollow Knight Of them all I'm somewhat leaning toward Creaks simply for it's animation style, and total creepy atmosphere. It's like something out of the mind of Tim Burton, my favorite director/producer. In my mind, the greatest director that ever lived. Fuck Spielberg, fuck Cameron, Tim Burton is king.

I was told today that the tiktok didn’t post right, so I’m trying this again.

Would the PS4 code be compatible on the PS5? I know the PS5 has reverse play to the PS4, but I don’t know if that extends to digital codes as well.

If I remember correctly, they were about $10. I think I got them from a seller on Amazon. I’m not sure though. I’d have to look back through my accounts to be sure.

I have a love-hate relationship with RDR2. When I get started playing it, I can’t get away from it. The moment I wake up in the morning I head straight for my PS4, and boot the game up. I’ll play from 6:00AM to midnight. I neglect everything else. I love the game, but the problem is that I love it a bit too much. If it wasn’t for @Rain Dew and my babies, I would probably be another 51 hour dead gamer.

I already talk like them. I have an accent that would match the way Arthur talks. Mine is a stronger southern drawl than his though. I grew up in the country on a small stock farm, and have a heavy redneck way of talking. Just ask @Rain Dew and she’ll confirm it. Think Granny Clampton. As for the cookies though…..

I saw them online and had to have them.

The only way I can see that actually working would be to have a camera at the register and to use face recognition technology to identify people, and a rating show up on their risk level. Then it would determine how much alcohol they could buy. And if they tried to go to multiple liquor stores or bars, they would be red flagged and refused. But then again, that would be dependent on anyone selling being willing to follow the law, or not be willing to go in for them to get them the booze. No matter what mouse trap you build, there is always a mouse that can get the cheese without setting it off.

I was thinking just now. Something hit me. When I saw that there was a RDR2 Zippo, I had to get it. You all know I collect Zippos. At the time Rockstar had a feature on their website that you could get a bundle. I got the Zippo, a steelbook, t-shirt, candle, and a copy of the ultimate edition of the game, which I already had. We have at current 3 PS4’s. One in our living room, one in my office, and one in the bedroom. I play RDR2 nonstop. What makes me think I’m a bit too much into the game is that I also have several images on my phone that are my wallpaper, and I have the RDR2 app as well. The damn game has invaded even my phone. There’s not a whole lot that I can’t tell you about the game. I’m not an RDR2 encyclopedia, but I do know the game really well. But when you download an app on your phone, maybe it’s going a little far?
