The Blackangel

Diet Pepsi or black coffee. More often than not it's the Diet Pepsi though. I have a mini-fridge here in my office/den/computer room or whatever the hell you want to call it. It is always stocked with soda, and my coffee pot is right beside it. So whether I want something hot or cold, I have it right there waiting for me.

This doesn't have to be anything tangible. It doesn't have to be a game, or online subscription to Game Pass or anything. It just has to be related to gaming. For me, it came from @Rain Dew a couple days ago. She got me one of the greatest gifts I have ever received in my life. She was on Cameo, and she bought me a shout out from Roger Clark, aka Arthur Morgan. I got a video message from Arthur Morgan. I was in a stunned silence for over two hours. I eventually ended up throwing up. The shock was almost more than I could believe. I actually told her the next morning that I had dreamed it. She told me it was real and we watched the video again. Since then I have watched it over and over. I still can't believe it that I got a message from Arthur Morgan himself. He talked to me in his real voice and as Arthur. He gave me some tips on voice acting, which is something I'm really wanting to get into. It's still mind blowing.

I spent almost $200 on RDR2 Ultimate Edition. I wanted the code that unlocks the extra quests and free items/horses and all the other stuff. The Special Edition would have done fine, but I couldn't find that one. I was all over the internet trying to find it, and finally found it on eBay. The Ultimate Edition does all that but also does it for the online version of RDR2 as well. There was only one that had the code unused, so I bought it. Then later I saw on Rockstar the bundle that I could customize that was less than that one copy of the game. So adding them both together, I probably spent around $380 or so to buy the game. Here's a comparison between the Ultimate and regular editions of the game from the Rockstar webpage.

I have 2 Master Swords, novelty coins, clothing, posters, and other random crap. I don't have a whole lot. Most of it is just random junk that I don't even know where the hell it is. The big things are the swords. One is a hell of a lot higher quality than the other, but they're both good quality replicas.

Selling these things like this sounds suspiciously like scalping to me. Gifting them is another case, but selling them doesn't sit right with me for some reason that even I can't quite put my finger on.

You can try Among The Sleep. It's a good one. It's first person if that makes any difference. Creepy Tale is another good one.

Motion capture is a major thing to produce games these days. Sure every company does it different, but they all still do it. The actors from RDR2 have joked saying they looked like ninjas with ping pong balls all over their bodies, including the horses. YouTube interviews is how I know that. So with that in mind, I would see that coming in the future to make VR fully immersive, until that little chip that you stick to the side of your head that transports you to a matrix like world comes out.

I hope to hell not. Zuckerberg has his grubby little paws into almost everything else, so there's no sense in Facebook making a console. We see consoles come and go, but no one can really compete with the big 3. So in my view, it would just be a waste of time on their part, because I only see it being a major flop and the company losing millions if not billions. Not that Zuckerberg would really notice if it was just millions.

Doesn't your job get monotonous as hell? I would think that it would often lead to burnouts for a lot of workers.

It’s extremely difficult. But in my opinion, that’s one of its more endearing traits. The art style, the difficulty, and the sheer goofiness just makes it a great game. It’s up there with Conker’s Bad Fur Day if you ask me. But as for Cuphead, I’ve been playing it for a good while now, and still haven’t gotten past the first stage. So either I suck at gaming, or this one is more difficult than I anticipated.

Cuphead would easily fit the category. It's one of the looniest games I have ever played. But I like it because it's the exact same art style as the cartoons I grew up watching. I miss those cartoons. Not even Boomerang has them.

That's a possibility, as much as I don't want to admit it. Another could be that I just got a bad phone. But either way, the one that I had was purely a piece of shit.

I tried googling the whole thing, but couldn't find anything. Maybe you guys will have better luck.

It all depends on the game. For example 1943 on NES is a WW2 game. For it, it needs to be historically accurate, or the game just doesn't work. Then there's games like RDR2, that take place in 1899. It is somewhat accurate for the time, but not entirely. And that works just fine for it. Most games need a little bit of accuracy for the time they're related to. Very few need to be historically accurate, as very few are based around a historical event.

This is news to me, as I would have thought that every single game invented would have required eyesight. I can't think of anything that would work for the blind.

It reminds me a lot of Spy Hunter on NES.

The Batman on NES is number one for me. It just can't be compared to in my opinion.

Untitled Goose Game is rather goofy, but still fun. Basically you're just playing as a goose and your main intent in the game is to be an asshole.

True, but since I never really knew anything about the game, I would have thought that games like GTA, Skyrim, or RDR2 would have been the ones to reach that goal.

It's possible. Hell it's possible that VR will eventually become some kind of button or whatever that you just stick on the side of your head and you're launched into the game. There's no telling where it will end up.

Yes they do feature online capabilities. First you have to have someone linked as a friend on both your Switch's. Second you both have to subscribe to Switch Online. Then you just link with your friend, and you both load up the game. That's how it worked for me when I subscribed. But I quickly unsubscribed since it was just an emulator, and nostalgia is 95% or what matters to me.

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.

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.
