Bring back Far Cry 2 you cowards!

You set out to accomplish something and everything goes wrong.

Also Far Cry 5 is the worst entry, overrated, and Far Cry 6 is overhated.

I have played every Far Cry since the first. In my opinion FC5 is the worst. Boring setting. Far more mundane and repetitive than the others. The forced kidnappings were annoying. The ending was meh. I think FC6 was a refreshing change.

Personally Far Cry Blood Dragon is the best overall. The Vietnam DLC for FC5 is also excellent, even though short. FC4 is also great, and has a truly unique setting and was a lotnof fun with the gyro copter and Yeti. FC3 is good and fun, but it's overrated.

FC2 I think is the best FC in a spiritual sense. For all its flaws, it truly set out to implement a unique concept the other FC's have forgotten.... that is you set out to accomplish something and everything will go wrong. You were supposed to be frustrated and overthink things. The setting was cool, the story was effed up, and the buddy system was kinda neat.

All Far Cry's suffer from underdelivering on the story. So much potential with the villains, yet barely seen. People who brag about how cool Vaas is seem to forget you only see him like 3 times, he's gone by like mid-game, and he wasn't even the main villain.

I am shocked the lifespan EU4 has. I played hundreds of hours of it on my (melting) laptop in college a decade ago. I'd let it run a bit while studying in the library, and kind of make slow moves and changes between studying things.

Heh. I love Ys, and yet EVERY SINGLE TIME I am initially disappointed, and I have to stick with it, and it eventually gets insanely good.

Just how Ys games are I guess. With Ys X I went into it knowing this and really overlooked a lot and told myself to ignore my criticisms cause I've been through this rodeo like 6 times now. 50 hours in, yeah it's awesome. The story especially.

I don't hate Monstrum Nox like so many do. It's refreshing they will always try wildly different things.

They'll fuck it up.

Fuck Sony. It'll be garbage and they'll do something moronic with it like most of their decision making the last 15 years.

Vita owners will complain about memory cards, but they overblow that issue. It was a bit of an issue. THE issue was Sony forgot they had a handheld. They quit really giving a shit about it after only a year or two. They barely pushed it or pushed for games on it.

The memory card complaints are just lemmings. The issue was bigger than that.

Every company everywhere is doing that. There are ways to limit things and be okay with it.

If companies using your data and pushing gambling bothers you, go live off the grid.

As a long time Steam user, while I still really like Steam and think it's the more consumer friendly platform, it has devolved greatly. Especially discussion forums are nearly no different than reddit toxicity where people exhibit their worst behaviors. I miss the legitimate discussions and love for specific games. Now it's mostly complaining and complete disregard for developers being humans.

The flood of garbage games has also been fairly obvious over the last decade. Some filters on your account handle a lot of this at least for the adult ones, but not all of it. It reminds me of the Wii shovelware era, but far worse.



BUT I would remind the Senator they STILL don't even have a fucking budget passed for this fiscal year we are already a month and a half into and they oughta stay in their lane and do their first basic god damn job before pointing at the supposed failures of others.

Elder Scrolls Online, as long as you find a good group of friends.

I also nearly have 1000 hours in MGSV Phantom Pain.

This kid in the story was walking around where demonstrably dangerous cars could hit him.

What are we arguing here?

Misleading headline.

From a different site:

with attackers demanding a $150,000 ransom in “baguettes,” an obtuse reference to the company’s headquarters being located in France. In reality, the attackers are looking for payment in Monero, a privacy-focused cryptocurrency.

Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana for PS Vita. Fishing edition. Some random fishing pics I grabbed. I liked the fishing part of the game. It even slightly contributes to the story and progress if you catch them all.
