Yep. As far as I know there isn't even anything dangerous on it but it's such nightmare energy for me that I will literally run out of the room like a child.

Also, I found that space feels eerily like underwater for me mentally. Fucking terrifying

Outer Wilds and subnautica still trigger all my phobias so effectively. It's terrifying

I agree. The thing that keeps me going is the idea of finding community again.

Not sure how many people in this thread are American, but we have a very independent point of view. The "optimal" way of living is leaving your parents, leaving your home, and building a new home somewhere else. We tend to be more independent overall and less likely to look to others for comfort, to our detriment. At least, that has been my experience.

So I think the best thing to do is go out there, find a community that DOES care. Because they DO exist. Look for hobby classes, look for new friends in your interests, look for a church (if that is your thing. I am UU so the people at those churches are often some of the nicest, most leftist people around).

I'm moving soon, and I think the thing that keeps me going is the idea of finding new community after I move. You can also affect meaningful change as a community when you can't do it alone.

Yeah this is the sad reality of weeb culture. These are the guys who try to brigade something because a character's boobs aren't big enough (see: Tifa in FF7 remake) and are completely, utterly serious. And they don't understand why none of us can muster even a modicum of respect for their opinions.

That's the $20 bucks a year price, right? If so, maybe I'll give it a look when I'm a bit more solvent.

I want to do this so bad because I see cup of the day stuff and think "man that sounds fun" and then I remember it is a subscription (as far as I understand) and I lose interest.

Fair enough, I heard there was gliding involved. Freaking love the griffin movement, I respect wanting to copy it

So after yoinking the sky scale mount from guild wars for their dragons, they are now going to yoink the roller beetle too, gotcha

Not that old, but I've been playing some Far Cry 5 recently since it went on decent sale for 14 bucks on steam and I was bored.

I remember being amazed at how good far cry 3 had been all those years ago, and I know that pretty much every far cry since has been a similar game with a different skin and some updated mechanics.

The whole "home grown USA cult" does hit a bit more interesting these days, but I honestly keep finding myself shaking my head because it feels like reality is somehow more ridiculous than this far cry game in that essence.

Game is fine, I am enjoying doing the same shooting over and over as a little mental break . I feel like this game is a real missed opportunity not having a set, voiced protagonist. Choosing your blank, voiceless murder machine makes every cutscene awkward because everyone is just talking at you instead of having actual dialogue or growth.

A lot of this games charm comes from the jank. But the magic system is absolute fun.

This game has tons of issues but I freaking love it. Played it again recently and finished the whole thing. It's great. Don't feel obligated to do EVERY quest, just faction questlines and the main quest. It's a lot of fun.

However then new DLC they added with remastered is fucking terrible. It fucks up so much lore, is incredibly lazy, and just looks like it was made on a true shoestring budget. Not worth playing at all.

I don't know about the legality of if either, but it seems so broken for them to have submitted these patent applications AFTER the game released, getting them accepted a few months later. That's fucking stupid, right?
