My human… I am unequivocally one hundred billion percent behind you with regards to who you are and how you present. With that said… it seems to me that expecting a crpg from the NINETIES to have character customization in line with today’s social norms thirty ish years later kinda falls on you. Furthermore asking for a refund 8 months post purchase (where Steam’s policy has ever been two WEEKS) after failing to research even at a base level… I think you just gotta kiss that eight bucks goodbye (or whatever it was at time of purchase).

IIRC their office flooded, destroying equipment and much of the game’s development with it.

Hasn’t SQ42 already had multiple release date announcements? This is a joke, right?

Are there Quarians in this game?

Really not sure how to interpret ‘cozy’ here, but tbh the Farcry series are great for me in that they’re my casual shooters. I say this meaning that I do the shooting when I want to do the shooting – otherwise I’m off paragliding or picking flowers or something else low stress and soothing. To me, in that regard, they’re very cozy.

$70 lol no

Either people didn’t get your sarcasm or they didn’t like it. Not sure which is worse.

Yup it is. Most recent example is Space Marine 2. I don’t have a problem paying full price if the review consensus is that it’s good enough to warrant it. So I waited for the reviews, and my most trusted reviewers lavished it so I bought it day one. Lo and behold it lived up.

I don’t expect the same for ES6.

Honestly I’m expecting a hot steaming pile of garbage given their trajectory. Just another fantasy veneer on the same tired Bethesda formula rife with bugs. My expectations are so low, in fact, my plan is to wait for a good sale to get it, or until I hear that it’s released in a playable state but still post release.

Half life 2, easily. Hands down. Runner up is Black Mesa, by a slim margin.

I am VERY much looking forward to buying this 2 days post release (pending reviews).

trying to hold their shit together

:)

This is a fan-made mod.

Dude…

A coworker of mine introduced me to these about five or six years ago, when they could only be acquired in specialty Asian grocery stores. Now I can get them at Shaws and I fuckin love them. I’ve got three packs in my pantry at the moment. They’re best if you add microwaved chicken nuggets to them.

Oh, it’s out??

Gah I need this in my fucking veins. I will not pre order but I’ll likely be a day 2 purchase just to ensure there’s no enshittification at work.

“This season, on ‘White Lotus’…”

Yes but when SteamOS for desktop??

Ooooof I’m fuckin in.
