For me personally 3-5 were solid Far Cry titles! I haven’t beaten 2 yet though. They are “AAA” titles and the corporate parts show, especially in 5. But I love the sandbox environments and the stories are dumb fun imo. Great “brain off” games (stealth is fun too)
“Done” doesn’t always mean complete, generally that’s where games go that I didn’t finish, never returned, and don’t plan on ever playing again.
But to answer your question
Far Cry: horrible update, AI is broken, don’t care to fix it
Far Cry Primal: Didn’t hate it but I didn’t love it, caused major eye pain too so I couldn’t play long.
Penumbra: Requiem: Abandoned the vibes of the previous two penumbra games which were the precursors to the amnesia games, didn’t enjoy the puzzles either.
Planet Centauri: Development Hell, no interest anymore.
Sniper Elite: weird funky controls just not enjoyable for me got about midway through before tapping out.
We happy few: mostly abandoned by the devs, game suffered due to being rushed.
Out of those I beat 3, the rest I either didn’t make the return window or kept for library collection reasons.
I tried to sort by genre too many times and failed due to how specific some games get. So now they are sorted by completion.
I also have a huge word document that has a very detailed, color-coded checklist of every game I have sorted alphabetically & by franchise, this was made so I could include any games from my other devices.
Just switched over to the beta updates and that seems to have resolved the issue for me. Thanks!
Oh it is lol, political cartoons?? There are entire chapters dedicated to those. Political memes are 100% going to be studied in the same vein
One person benches
Chair. That’s a chair
Couldn’t you just say “Vampires hate them!” If you don’t know? Seems easier imo
Not nearly as much as my face that’s for sure
I do this, here’s why. Also I’m 23
I don’t like getting oils and sweat on my screen. I also don’t like putting my dirty screen on my face.
I can still talk to someone and do other stuff on my phone. If I want privacy or I’m in an area where speakerphone would be annoying then fine I’ll use it the old way, but generally I have headphones to bridge that gap anyways.
What color is the smoke?
I’m not a huge reader, ADHD ensures that. Also the now “traditional”(?) Anime/Manga art style leaves little to be desired for me. (It feels like the Times New Roman for cartoons) so I generally avoid most mangas. But I’ve enjoyed the fuck out of Junji Ito’s stories despite the disturbing imagery. But Tomi’s recurring character is great.
With how common the isekai the seems to go I feel like it’s become the “rouge-like” of literature though. It cropped up out of nowhere and now I’ve got middle aged men at my job referencing the word. Wild stuff
It also sucks if all the content is exclusively paywalled. I wouldn’t know what is or isn’t good without potentially wasting my hard earned money. I can’t even afford rent let alone a series of patreon services. I support creators when I can, but I refuse to be a fucking product for simply being poor.
Oh today I learned, TBH my information was probably out of date. But this is good to know. Definitely a step in the right direction even if more diversified public transportation options are better

I personally haven’t found low poly horror to do too much for me.
Alien Isolation had to be one of the scarier games I’ve played, on top of SOMA and those both look great.
The issue imo of hyper real graphics is by taking a boring approach to it, the whole game suffers
The only reason shit like that even succeeds is probably because people put on live streams as background noise
A self image that has been instilled through years and years of highly targeted, and highly researched ad campaigns.
People “want” these because they believe they need it, because the ads told them they need it. Then the other men who own those vehicles proceed to shit on the men with smaller trucks, and those insecure enough to bend over get the big truck as well.
I don’t see this truck culture in Europe. I don’t see people buying stupid vehicles to go offroading full of expensive gadgets and so on. While I’m sure it exists in small pockets it is by no means the level it’s at here. (In Europe it’s probably more for sports cars anywho)
Point being, no one wanted those SUVs until the car companies told them they want those SUVs.
I’ve heard this plenty of times, but are you using that field? Are you using that forest? This road that road? Are you using the parking lot in Seattle when you live in Georgia?
“We have the space for bigger vehicles” does not make sense when we have to drive farther and farther to reach things that are useful for us. (Also sprawling development destroys local ecosystems, and along with that, natural resources.)
While I would’ve agreed with you a few years ago, it’s just not a realistic thought process when most people live their day-to-day lives in an area about the size of Luxembourg.
Big vehicles are a huge waste of valuable resources that could’ve been used on other things, such as infrastructure, public transport, smaller vehicles. Etc.
Of course!
