  1. The reviewer needs to be free from social constructs. They need to be able to review a game without receiving condemnation for reviewing it at all. What that means is, think of games like God Of War. There were a lot of evangelical christians going off the deep end because it was about the ancient Gods. Coincidentally enough, the very Gods and Goddesses that I pay homage to and worship. But since it was a different god than the one of christian mythology, they went ballistic. So a lot of reviewers were too scared to give it their full honest opinion. Granted there were also a lot that didn't give a shit what the radicals thought, but still. And it doesn't stop at religion. There's also racial games. There's anti-group1 and anti-group2 games that reviewers are scared to review. And it's because they are held back by the status quo. Anything that threatens that, no matter how small, is gonna make shit hit the fan and no one is going to have time to duck.
  2. What draws me is the character personalities and storyline. To really get me into a game there has to be at least one character I can relate to really well straight at the beginning. Some would call it "kindred spirits". Then as the story progresses, there has to be some kind of conflict that keeps pulling me in. Be it an inner conflict with the character or something they have to face outwardly. I have to feel like I am the character in question.
  3. ZZT, MDK, Pac-Man, Frogger, Maze Craze, Space Invaders, and a couple other dot matrix games. I can't think of the titles at the moment. I've been out of bed for all of 5 minutes.
  4. I have all mine in plastic tubs that I bought at Walmart. The lids clip on tightly which keeps the humidity under control, and also keeps dust from building up on them. Also since the tubs are clear I can just look through the lid to see what games are in which tub. I do have them sorted out in a specific way for the most part, but I still sometimes have to pop all the tubs open for the system I'm wanting to play to find something that catches my eye at that particular moment. But it's no big thing. They're protected, and easy to look through.
  5. Minecraft Red Dead Redemption Skyrim Mario Odyssey There’s probably several others that I’m forgetting but those are the only ones that are coming to mind at the moment.
  6. I have a PC I bought probably around 18 years ago specifically for playing oldies games. It’s not good for anything else, but it runs them great.
  7. Alyxx is exactly right. SJW’s are a problem a lot of the time, but inclusion of everyone, whether they have a gender or not is a step in the right direction. It’s not just male and female. There’s a lot more to it. And seeing that inclusion in gaming and the rise of female protagonists is what we need more of. For the longest time Samus was the only female protagonist. Every other female in games were the “damsel in distress”. I hated that stereotype then, and I hate it now. A hole is just as strong as a pole.
  8. I don’t do social media with the exception of YouTube and a few pics on instagram. I’m a YouTube addict, and most of the time I completely forget that I even have an instagram. So there’s nothing I can do about retweet’s. But I’m interested in the YouTube videos.
  9. I agree with you 100% on that. Breeding animals for the sole purpose if injecting them with chemicals and diseases to see how other chemicals and diseases react is sick. Use pedophiles and rapists for that.
  10. I was a hunter when I was a kid, and we always ate everything we killed. That was our main reason for hunting. Food. And we hunted almost every game animal available in Missouri. But even then, I didn't like the idea of trophy hunting. It just didn't make sense to me. It still doesn't. I lost interest in hunting years ago, and actually sold my deer rifle and shotgun recently. I think I kinda got ripped off, but if I was stupid enough to let that happen then I deserved it. But even if I wanted to go hunting I couldn't because I'm in a wheelchair now. The closest I go to hunting now is trying to find the right shoes when I have to go out.
  11. So the entire thing is the fault of white people?
  12. What can I say. I’m a bitch.
  13. I was never into online games to begin with. But Elsweyr still looks pretty good graphically speaking.
  14. I do have to say however, that I would kill for Taylor Hanson's hair.
  15. What's the one game that under no circumstance you would even consider playing? Why? For example you wouldn't even play it to save your own mothers life.<-- THAT'S ONLY EMPHASIS AND NOT TO BE TAKEN LITERALLY.
  16. What's your problem with the LGBTQ+ community? I have a lot of friends who are transgender, and I see their struggle. They're not SJW's demanding you change your life to fit into their tiny little bubble. They just want a little bit of respect and to be left alone to live their lives, the same as everyone else. They're not monsters.
  17. You should get Elsweyr. It's the next in the Elder Scrolls franchise. It's about to drop, and it's already available for preorder.
  18. LOL, that hadn't even crossed my mind. But it would be a good idea to make it just so you can screw with your friends or hit back at your enemies. They just have to beat the Great Mighty Poo first, and repeatedly throughout the game. And when they enter a fight with it, they're unable to exit the game until they have won the fight. They also have infinite lives to keep them in the fight until they win. 😈😈😈😈
  19. Before long people are going to be hiring electricians to change a lightbulb.
  20. Unfortunately, you’re right. Games are no longer about challenge. They’re about rewards. You get a trophy or new skill for the most inane of accomplishments. If the game makes you feel like you’ve accomplished something when you’ve actually done nothing, it will keep up the sales. This generation is lazy and wants everything without earning it. Sad.
  21. They think they’re slick enough to get away with creating their own dictatorship and being able to rule with an iron fist. Pull that shit with me however, and I’ll shove that iron fist up your ass.
  22. I hit up Redbox a couple days ago. After watching these movies, I wish I hadn't. The Prodigy - 4/10 Godzilla King Of The Monsters - 6.5/10 Pet Sematary (2019 version) - 1/10 The Child Remains - 2/10
  23. The only time they are scripted to be apart is the beginning of disc 2. Laguna is living in Winhill. Kiros has been searching for him and finds him there. they do a patrol of the town and that's pretty much it for the end of that flashback. In literally every other flashback, the 3 of them are always together. So far anyway. But the flashback that has me confused happened at the beginning of disc 3 when Rinoa was unconscious. Ellone accidentally sent Squall and 2 of your choice back while she was asleep to a point when Laguna, Kiros, and Ward were in the Trabia mountains. They were out of money and Laguna managed to land a part in a movie. Kiros and Ward were asked to play the part of the dragon because the original actor was sick. But this time when I got to that point, Ward wasn't in it. It was only Laguna and Kiros. In all the years I've been playing this game, that has never once happened. They were and are always together. So I'm completely lost as hell.
  24. The compatibility I’m seeing is only for Apple products. iPhone’s and iPad’s. But considering the game itself, unless Apple made a hell of a deal with Nintendo, I would expect it to be available on both at some point.
  25. I can see it now: "Coming soon to a store near you: it's SJW Throwdown! The ultimate in forcing your kids to be a worthless piece of shit. From EA Sports."
