This looks insanely creative. This isn’t a genre I typically engage with, but it looks like such a unique experience that I’ll probably get it.

The last time I got sent to jury duty, I told the judge that although it is technically possible a sex offender will not re-offend, it was statistically more likely that they will if they already re-offended multiple times.

Apparently, that was not the correct answer and I got sent home 😂

Do you know how to do that? I don’t know how to get the UK to see this.

If you have any comfortable noise-canceling headphones recommendations that would be helpful. Mine are not really comfortable and I can’t lay down and wear them because I like to lay on my side when I rest.

Ok this is legit super interesting. It wouldn’t work for me because I have to sleep in bed with my girlfriend, but this is really cool.

I wish we lived in a society that made it so you wouldn’t need to do that to feel peace. For now, do what you need to do to feel calm, whatever that is.

I feel your pain. I just can’t fully be relaxed if there’s too much sound. The sensitivity appears to have gotten worse as I’ve gotten older. I wish every product in the world had sound limits so that nothing is too loud. Most people look at me like I’m crazy because they can never truly understand.

I already have noise canceling headphones and loops. I don’t like wearing the headphones all day because they get uncomfortable after a while. I’d like to target the sources of noise if possible.

Yes, there’s a big DLC coming I believe. It’s definitely worth it if you haven’t played Grim Dawn

Look into the Disgaea series (JRPG) and Grim Dawn if you want to play the spiritual successor to Titan Quest.

I would love if someone made a game that is the midpoint in complexity between PoE and Grim Dawn, but I feel like I might be dreaming for awhile

I actually think this is a good sign. We don’t need anymore MMOs. Honestly, who has the time or money for MMOs nowadays.

The article actually talks about how these preachy dudes haven’t even played the game they are criticizing. That’s actually pretty ridiculous.

I’ve honestly never heard of this channel before, but this just seems dumb. It’s like free advertising for Nintendo.

As usual Nintendo goes legally overboard for really no good reason at all. In this case honestly I don’t even understand why Nintendo wasted their time. It’s a YouTube channel, not a competitor.

This is interesting, I wonder if these numbers about increasing tax revenue that TIGA is claiming are accurate.

This direct government support is always a little strange to me, like why aren’t they making enough money on their own.

Government support makes sense for things that everyone needs, but support for the video games industry specifically seems a little weird.

Maybe I’m just missing out on some important UK context though. And honestly I love video games so I don’t mind so much, just wondering why UK taxpayers are cool with this.

I actually couldn’t afford to play it really.

The only format I could really play was Pauper and I had some fun with it for a bit at my LGS. Then I just gave up because I wasn’t making any friends at the LGS and I didn’t want to keep spending money on it. I guess proxies exist, but I don’t have anyone to play with 😢.

I actually really wish I could afford it, I play games like Slay the Spire to get the deck building fix without spending a ton of money.

For me, it’s Elden Ring. I wanted to love the game so bad but it didn’t recapture the magic of Dark Souls 1 for me. I never get past the early areas of the game because I just get bored.

Elden Ring just doesn’t make the experimenter part of my brain feel good. I want to try out everything and do everything and constantly adjust to the enemies. But, in ER you are much better off focusing on one thing and getting really good at it. The game is about mechanical skill and pattern recognition, not solving the enemy like a puzzle. So, I just get bored doing the same repetitive attacks and learning when to dodge the enemies. Maybe you get to do a little bit of fun planning by picking the right element or buffs but that’s about it.

I was actually really sad about it, but I came to realize that I just want to play games that are very mathy and allow me to test out lots of builds and strategies. I’ve actually taken an interest in JRPGs as a result and I’m enjoying it so far.

I love indie games, thank you for making these posts! I’ll definitely check this one out as a Balatro fan.

I actually wish there was a game that had a level of complexity in between POE and Grim Dawn.

I enjoyed Grim Dawn but I really felt like your build has a lot more to do with your gear. And the skill system was just a little too simple for me.

However, I’ve been playing games with randomized loot less often over the years. I just don’t have the time and my autism brain gets frustrated when I can’t just experiment with builds easily.
