  • Far cry 5 gives the opposite experience. You get railroaded into missions, but can do whatever you want to during them.

    While getting pushed into missions is a bit irritating, the open gameplay and drop in co op made it one of the most fun games out there. Finding ways to break missions with my friends turned into the real objective of the game.

    One portion, you have to scale a mountain while dodging sniper fire to kill a cult leader at the top, and I spent 15 minutes slowly making my way up to him. As I finally get to the top, before I could make the kill, a friend dropped in and crashed a fighter jet into him, completing the mission.

  • Seems like a solid place for me to plug Deadbolt to anyone that hasn't played it. It's made by the risk of rain guys with Chris christodoulou making another iconic soundtrack.

    It plays a bit like if hotline Miami was a stealth sidescroller, using fluid motion to get in, kill the enemies, and get out as quickly and smoothly ad possible.

    Everyone should give it a try, it's one I consistently ignore new games for.

  • One of the best games out there. RoR 2 and RoR Returns are both stellar as well.

    The soundtrack is phenomenal.

    The game seems way too hard at first, but once you get into the flow it's incredibly satisfying.

  • Blasphemous was the first pixel game that jumped in my head for really outstanding art. Wild character design, and the kill animations are unique and brutal.

    It's like they saw what castlevania wanted to be and blew it out of the water.

  • I've been building a house myself for four years. I move in in 3 weeks.

  • Not the original commenter, but what theirs saying stands true. The issue of "sounds legit" is the main driving force in misinformation right now.

    The only way to combat it is to truly gain the knowledge yourself. Accepting things at face value has lead to massive disagreements on objective information, and allowed anti science mindsets to flourish.

    Podcasts are the medium that I give the most blame to. Just because someone has a camera and a microphone, viewers believe them to be an authority on a subject, and pairing this with the "sounds Legit" mindset has set back critical thinking skills for an entire population.

    More people need to read Jurassic park.

  • Foss everything. I've spent years making sure I stay private and never see ads, and never pay for convenience. There is a free version of literally everything that people use, it just takes a little bit of effort.

    Fediverse for social media, Foss alternatives for professional use, and I hack every device I own.

  • I see this opinion fairly often, and it honestly confused me. My rig is not a showcase by any means, and I had no issues with sh2 or dead space.

    I'm thinking more people need to optimize their OS.

  • I find the opposite is true gender swapped. Nothing makes a girl more attractive to me than playing bass.

  • Tyler's new album title

  • Giant isopods have been filmed swarming sharks to impede their movement and gill function when the local detritus is lacking nutrients.

  • Did you just assume my phyla?

  • Depends on the definition of bug. Entemological true bugs are a very specific class of insects, but the term bug was used to describe any arthropod for significantly longer than proper taxonomy has been around.

    So if you're a biologist, no, if you're an anthropologist, yes.

    Someone covered in brine shrimp would be more likely to feel covered in bugs than covered in marine crustaceans though.

  • The taxonomy puts us right about the same, splitting after phylum. That being said, a shrimp looks a hell of a lot more like a silverfish than I do like a carp.

    Well, depending on my general state of health.

  • That great room kinda rules. Maybe a fun rental, but living there I fell like I'd get sick of it pretty fast.

  • "Anyone who must venture outdoors for a period of time is strongly urged to cover exposed skin. "

    Oh shit that's a good idea. I've been snowblowing in my flip flops this whole time.
