I was a PC gamer both before and after Halo. I'd still place Halo 1/3 as top on my list for FPS campaigns. There are few games that have such diversity of tactics to explore. I don't think COD4 would even crack the list for me. It was fun, but if it weren't for the fact that everyone keeps buy COD games, I would have forgotten about it by now.

Yeah, I'll be giving this a whirl in early access.

I finally saw it too. It's great as expected. I think the box scene in part 1 is still my favorite scene though. It really feels like it needs Dune Messiah though. The end brings closure to the main arcs, but I feel like it more clearly signals that there is more to say about this story than the ending of the book did. I mean, it's been more than 20 years since I read the book, but my memory of that was it felt complete, even though I knew there were more books. In contrast, the movie feels like it has more to say about the burden Paul takes on and the cost of it to the world that was not resolved.

I liked the chocobo racing a lot except for those fucking doors! Actually really just some of the fucking doors. A lot of the time, you have enough visibility ahead of time to judge which ones would open/close when you got there, but there were a handful where it felt like you turned a corner and basically had to guess how far along it was in a cycle and could get fucked by chance. Those can eat a dick. The star fighter mini game was the best. But I have a soft spot for Starfox64, so that tracks.

General Gaming Gameranx 10 RPG'S TO REVISIT in 2024
legend replied to skillzdadirecta's topic in The Spawn Point
Good choice for #1. -
In general I’m sympathetic to that. However, I do think this is slightly more problematic in that phones are not replacing computers in the same way computers replaced type writers. Computers will continue to exist and serve many business etc. purposes that phones cannot. Phones can replace some things, (various mobile communication can replace email for example), but there are a lot of things it cannot replace. * I'll add the exception that tablets with a keyboard can do many of the things a computer can, including spreadsheets etc. But that's basically just moving the same computer tech onto a tablet physical form. If the new gen is fine with all that stuff, but just doesn't know windows/macos, then I think that's fine. But that's not the impression I was getting from the article.

I do not understand this mentality at all. Multiple windows for different tasks and you should have few enough tabs that you can identify what each is easily. When people get the insane number of tabs, their ability to find what they're looking for is so slow that I can get what they were looking for faster with a google or a search on the appropriate site if its an internal thing.

Not knowing what a switch is would be pretty bad, but more generally that's because computer science programs don't teach for IT jobs. Yes, computers are involved but computers are far too big a field to assume that because someone learned something about computers that they'll be well prepared for anything that involves them. If IT divisions are seeking computer scientists for IT then they're just being dumb. If you're going to be hiring from college for IT you should be looking for people with majors in information systems (or whatever the equivalent is for any given university)
-
Well if you find yourself experimenting with the system then maybe that will be okay! But just make sure you don't go so low that you don't need to do that anymore. I remember trying story mode at one point and I was just blowing shit up way too easily with a regular hunter bow. Maybe easy strikes a good enough balance. (I often check difficulty in case my wife might be interested who usually, though not always, plays games on easier modes)
-
Haha well glad you're still pushing yourself even on easy! For me the most fun is when I find a strategy and combination of moves and suddenly what wasn't easy, is now easy Without some push of difficulty, the victory of finding something badass just isn't as sweet. Incidentally, this was also part of my problem with FF16. It didn't really push me to do cool fighting. I kind of forced myself to do more because it just was just too boring otherwise, but it never felt as good as when being a bad ass was a requisite.
-
Yeah I'll second that difficulty is important. There are some really cool things you can do in Horizon's combat, but if the game is too easy, you'll never be motivated to find them and it will all feel boring as hell. Instead you're just going to shoot things with your hunter bow endlessly and wonder why anyone likes the game.

Television Curb Your Enthusiasm Season 12 Trailer

Yeah it's shockingly close to the end of the Seinfeld. I didn't remember them being that close together. But I was still a teenager then, so small intervals of time could feel much longer -

Yeah I also enjoyed it a lot and liked how they closed it out. I really enjoyed
