The Blackangel

Until you fall off a cliff and end up falling through an endless void into the abyss of nothingness? Can't say that I have.

Not too often. Usually because I'm not paying all that much attention to the text on the screen. In newer games you have audio, and in older games, I have played the ones in my library so much that I don't have much, if anything, left to learn about the game in question.

It's not something I have ever been called, and never will be called. But I do agree. The wealth of knowledge here is an invaluable resource to have access to.

Freddie Mercury is spinning in his grave.

I know Gorilla Glue is meant to never let go, and is highly toxic. It's a permanent adhesive that is designed to withstand everything. So anyone who is enough of an idiot to intentionally introduce it to their body deserves all the repercussions and forced sterilization. Granted, I've gotten the shit on my fingers accidentally before. After having to wait for the solvent to kick in to neutralize it, I realized that rubber gloves were a good idea. Haven't had a problem since.

No modern cultures really hold my attention. The only ones that have my interest are ancient cultures. Norse, Greek/Roman, Egyptian, Mayan/Aztec, Scottish Celtic (my personal heritage), Japanese, Chinese, tribal cultures, and several lost civilizations as well. By "lost" I don't mean Atlantis. I mean civilizations like the Olmecs, or the inhabitants of Easter Island. People that we know were here, but have no idea why they disappeared. Only their relics remain to let us know they were here. The Moai of Easter Island, and the giant stone heads of the Olmecs.

I haven't had to go on 4 hours per night since I was in boot camp. We didn't even see a bed for the first 2 nights. We got there at somewhere around midnight and were kept up for the next 42 hours. When we finally hit that first night that we were allowed to sleep it was like a gift from the Gods. We got 9 hours that night, and believe me, we all needed it.

Yeah it was 1991. The funny thing about its release, was that it was released on Valentines day.

I've never played any of those, but I'm sure there are a fairly large amount of people who judge in ignorance just from the cover or a YouTube video. To be completely transparent, I don't even know what kind of game the Half-Life series is. Until this thread I hadn't heard of it.

I was really disappointed with that entry into the GoW franchise. It just didn't meet the hype it had gotten IMO. Also I hated FF7. The game mechanics were shit, and the story line just sucked. Until the release of FF13, it was the worst FF game in the entire franchise IMO.

I met a kid at a concert one time about 20 years ago who used Elmers glue to put his hair into a bunch of short spikes. I never would have thought of that method, but then again, I care about my hair.

I get drunk in RDR2 to get my stamina to level up. I'm not joking. 4 shots of Pirate Rum, and your stamina level goes up. You're shitfaced to no end, even if you have the wolf heart trinket. But in the long run, it's worth it.

Maybe some of the true classics like Pac-Man, or Frogger? Possibly a Mario game? To be honest I have never heard anyone say Pac-Man was a terrible game, but then again, I'm probably the first person most of you have met that says tetris is the worst game ever made.

Damnit, what moronic challenge did I miss this time?

If you really want to trip balls, wait for a night when it's storming like crazy. Turn off all the lights, and I mean everything. Then go to your room or somewhere else that will be getting no light except for the occasional lightning strike. Put in your earbuds, as they're typically more noise canceling than headphones, and play the game. No one else around. It may not sound like much to those that have never played a Layers Of Fear game, but those of us that have will know just how terrifying that can be. Especially to those with a fear of the unknown, the dark, or isolation. In all seriousness, after doing this you will literally never be the same again.

Picked it up today at Walmart. They had 6 more in the case. I could have gotten them all if I had wanted to, but I think my point is made. Had I gotten them all, I would have given them out to the few people in my life that matter. It does look like a lot of fun though. I always loved Mario 64. Never played Sunshine. Barely touched Galaxy 2. Never played the first one though.

Ditto.

Nostalgia mostly would block me from a remake. Curiosity would bring me to a remake. With FF8, they did a great job, and in my opinion improved the game. With Links Awakening, I was sickened by it. Sure I play it because since getting my Switch, I forget to bring my GameBoy all the time. But it was a remake that never should have happened. That was a nostalgia and curiosity mix. I rarely touch it, mainly because I just can't bring myself to. But with 90-something DDL's on my Switch and around 25 cartridges, I have no shortage of game options. I also have BOTW, but it's having a hell of a time keeping my interest.

In the remake of FF8 you have 3 cheats that you can enable any time. Invincibility, 3X speed, and blocking all encounters. I like the 3X speed and use it all the time. I enable the invincibility if I plan on leaving the game on overnight to farm items. Blocking encounters is nice if I'm trying to do a side quest. And since I don't have to worry about Diablos to have it, it also saves me a bonus slot on the character he is junctioned to. Which for me is always Squall.

FF8 had the best remake. I love it. The graphics are more crisp, the 3X speed option, and the rare items that were previously only available through a Pocket Station are now available in game. Also, not having to wait for Diablos to learn enc-none is a nice touch. The one remake that I almost can't stand is Links Awakening. It's so much of a better game on the GameBoy. Sure it's good on the Switch, but it should have stayed where it was.

This sounds false memories and/or the Mandela Effect.

I've done it several times in RDR2. At completely random times, people in camp will have a tip to rob a stagecoach, or rob a bank or something, but I ignore it because I'm more interested in something else.

It's in RDR2, but that's all I'm saying. I don't want to give any specific spoilers since I know a lot of people here haven't played it yet, and we all despise spoilers. I also know we're not too fond of those that shout out spoilers. I'm already not all that well thought of here, so I figure just let it be. I have enough enemies, and I neither need nor have room for more. So to put it simply, have a box of tissues ready when you play RDR2, because you will cry.

I started an RDR2 game a while back, and my entire goal was to rack up as much bounty as I could. I just killed everyone I saw, robbed every store, looted every house, I was just evil as hell. And in another one I tried to be as much of an angel as the game would let me. The outcomes and paths the game takes you down between the two personality differences are so far apart that black and white don’t even compare in difference. It was really amazing to see.

Yeah but some are intentionally corny. I mean look at MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice. A lot of their songs were so corny, the only thing left to the listener was to wonder who's garden they picked them from.
