Probably Mario on the first NES system. Then I got a Genesis, and I was constantly playing a little-known number called Ranger-X. THAT game was Dark Souls-hard.
The people coming in here bitching about the fact that the game needed relatively MINOR bug fixes have such a shit take. They're mad at hearing about the game in general, and they want to be contrarian.
The game was solid even right out the gate. Get the fuck over it. Sorry not sorry.
I've read your other comments. There aren't microtransactions from what I can see, and you're just here to be a contrarian. It isn't working.
One fight out of the whole game.
You can argue all you want with everyone on here, but your bad positioning is a fucking skill issue, sorry.
If it's happening that often, that's absolutely a positioning problem.
I play an Oathbreaker Paladin and I have never had this problem. Usually, I'm the one shoving things to their death if I absolutely must.
So, your positioning needs reconsidering, or you need to use your tank/STR character to force an opening so you can relocate. OR you're just really unlucky.
From my perspective, if you're falling to your death that much, it's more likely you either like standing on cliffs or you're trying to make excessive use of High Ground attack bonus, which IMO isn't enough to justify me wasting a move turn repositioning and setting myself up for a potential fall.
By all accounts, this is not a bug, nor is it a problem if you adapt your strategy to prevent such a thing.
And there it is. That's the problem with the sort of naive idealists that frequent communities like this, fuck_cars, etc.
Their concerns are valid but their own ideas for how the world should work, how the problems should be solved are just as dangerous as the root of the problem. Maybe even moreso, in some cases.
Eh, not bad I guess. I'm laid off for a few days (can't pave in the rain) so I'll have to collect a week of unemployment, but on the other hand it gives me time to get some things done around the apartment and see some friends that live nearby.
Other than that, trying to play Armored Core VI without getting frustrated with the difficulty, and eagerly awaiting Starfield's early release on Labor Day weekend.
Sons Of The Forest is surprisingly detailed, but you don't have much time to take in the sights and the foliage when there's cannibals chasing you through the woods.
I almost picked it up off GMG, but I'm really not a platformer guy.
Oh. Now this is gonna be some hot garbage.
Shame, too. NovaLogic had some great milsim IPs back in the day. This was probably their best known. I always used to play Comanche 3, Delta Force 2 and Delta Force: Land Warrior as a kid.
I was, until I hit the bosses in the Chapter 1 capstone mission.
Fuck.
Most of the game isn't too bad. The bosses I cannot handle.
Putin fucked it up for the one title I've been waiting over a decade for. And it got delayed until next year. Again.
The only thing I have been satisfied with is Baldur's Gate 3 and I lost interest before I completed Act 3. I'm so immensely fucking pissed off with Armored Core 6 right now that I'm considering uninstalling.
It's not that it's bad. It's actually a really well-made game. But it's fucking FromSoft, and it's their "games aren't shit unless they're infuriatingly hard" bullshit they've always been on.
I don't know what I was expecting. I beat Elden Ring and the bosses weren't on this level of nonsense.
And with the news that S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 just got pushed back AGAIN, I'm not having a good year in gaming, no.
I need Starfield to be good or I walk away from gaming altogether until next year. It's getting to be not worth it anymore to me.
That's forbidden knowledge among the mechanics in my union local, lol. One of the shop mechanics at my training center was teaching some of my peers how to pick locks when we had completed our training and were just killing time helping the shop guys out. Had some downtime and he brought out a couple sets and some locks.
Apparently it's sort of an unspoken tool of the mechanic trade when you work around machinery like that. Never know what you'll have to get access to and you never know if anyone will have the right key. You'd think the ignition key would suffice to open, say, an access panel or storage cabinet, but some of these machines use a different key entirely for such a thing.
Seriously, I've seen these guys even back when I was in college. Loud, obnoxious, opinionated, and with poor fashion sense.
I guess all the other guys in the photo are the betas? There can only be one alpha, or so our poorly-researched understanding of pack animals goes.
That's almost anarcho-syndicalism, which I am a proponent of some of the ideas of, but it leaves capital and government generally intact. That's probably the easiest way we could transition away from capitalism as we know it and not collapse the system entirely. It sounds almost feasible.
