Well that’s not true. It’s just a real bitch. As a welder, helium leak check is about the toughest damn QC to pass. Most welding QC has some reasonable margin for error during inspection, but the damn helium doesn’t care. You can have a beautiful weld with a tiny imperfection at the start or end and it’ll piss helium just as badly as an entirely scuffed bead.

It’s this new thing called the “internet” that has all kinds of information on it.

Honestly never got into satisfactory (besides watching silly runs on youtube) but I absolutely fell in love with goat Sim. Nothing beats that damned goat when it comes to a happy, silly reset for the burnt out gamer.

Besides buying out all the DRG cosmetic packs because I’m a whore for coffee stain and ghost ship, the best DLC cosmetic I’ve ever bought is the dumb piglet Saltzpyre wears on his head in Vermintide 2. It’s got a little wiggly butt and floppy Lil legs and it’s adorable. Best $5 I’ve ever spent.

Presequel is great, wonderlands is not. Tiny Tina’s dlc in 2 was absolutely perfect and MAYBE should’ve gotten a sequel dlc in 3, but there was never enough content for a stand alone title. Certainly not at a full game price point. I always look back to farcry 3 for the proper way to handle a stand alone dlc installment. Blood dragon was always a smaller spinoff and it worked well in that regards.

17 after being groomed for ~3 years when dingus tried to meet up and the parents went loud with twitch. Grooming a 14 year old girl is generally considered in bad taste.

This should be bread and butter of immersive gameplay. Show, don’t tell. If I want a 1.5k word info dump I’ll go to one of my stories on royalroad. Letting me make my own narrative will be more enjoyable for me 95% of the time.

To be fair, Morrowind is just that kind of game. It’s been many years since I’ve played it, but I remember it being one of the last truly open world experiences I got from playing games. The plot drops you off in the first city and kind of just let’s you go at it. I remember hours of just wandering until I ended up at the city of vivec, which is the mess of floating pyramid temple lookin jobbies out on a lake somewhere. I didn’t know shit about anything but it was awesome and that was enough for me. Elden Ring almost brings this feeling back sometimes.

Best advice I got from a friend who brought me into warframe was “don’t pay any attention to the story because none of it makes any sense.” And I’ve stuck by that.

I will agree the crafting system is incredibly unintuitive even before you get into the more obscure aspects like helminth or archon shards, but there is some story if you really want to dig for it. Honestly I was pretty firmly a casual player until I got to the chains of harrow and from there I was hooked. It’s not a constant thing for me, but a couple months out of the year I like to check back in and see what’s new. The movement and combat are big sellers for me though. I find myself reverting to/wanting the warframe movement system in pretty much every other game I play after lol

If you liked anthem, might I suggest the mother of all robot ninja shooter games, Warframe?

Honestly hardspace shipbreakers is giving me that feeling. It’s a real cozy corporate nightmare with very chill game play. Reminds me a lot of snow runner in how laid back it is

We already have it and it’s called Helldivers 2: Also with Bugs!
