I never played classic Blue Shift until a couple years ago (I didn’t actually finish though, but I did get a part of the way through Xen in that one) and thought it had a little more “personal” feel to it rather than Half-Life. Like everyone has a name, and calls you Barney or Calhoun all the time and such.

The Blue Shift Remake mod for Black Mesa is really cool imo. It’s bigger, there’s been more stuff added to levels, and it kinda fleshes out Black Mesa itself as a location (you have different divisions with their uniforms and such, like Security, Research, Warehouse and Maintenance).

Me and my family are about to go on a trip, and it starts with a flight tomorrow.

Wish us luck, cause I’m hoping nothing serious happens.

Or the spirit you meet who tasks you with stealing insignificant things. She was fun.

ETA: I also treat that undead crypt keeper nicely any time I see him in a playthrough. He’s always nice to me so it only seems fair.

Psychonauts 2 was probably the best sequel ever imo. I grew up playing the first game so I’m a little biased, but holy shit is that second one a masterpiece.

It’s such a fun and cozy little game, I honestly want the creators to make it into a show or something. I love all the characters and I want to see more of them!

And the soundtrack was absolutely gorgeous too.

I think the moment that got the biggest laugh from me, was shooting that kid in the face then telling his mom about it, or finding the dying care bear dude voiced by PsychicPebbles and he’s going on for almost more than five whole minutes about how close he is to dying and he sees the light and blah blah blah. Anytime you tried to leave he’d be like “wait where are you going?! You’re just gonna leave me here to die alone?!”

Those Wolfenstein games kinda rule because they’re so over the top.

And then you become Terror Billy.

Holy shit The Alters has a music video scene? Is it like in American Dad when he’s in Francine’s mind and has the other versions of him sing a song?

I’ve been wanting to play the full game for a while now, but I saw a review that said it was a surprisingly short game, so I’ve been holding off spending the $20 on it. I had a TON of fun with the demo though. Kicking barrels and crates into people, kicking people into furniture and water, all their little comments like “maybe if we don’t move, she’ll forget we’re still here” after “knocking them out.”

I can’t remember off the top of my head, but I’m sure it wasn’t long ago. I laugh pretty easily at a lot of different things, like ironic situations or bugs/glitches that look silly.

Hold, girdle… Hooold…

I looked through both this account and your other one, and you really just come off as a condescending know-it-all who moves the goalposts whenever someone calls you out on your behavior.

Is cat lady “culture” not already mainstream?

excited violent screeching and feeding noises

I mean prison already exists, and what’s prison but a camp with walls?

I’ve heard that some tattoos can’t easily be removed because of where they are, and yours seems to be a fairly important spot in the body. Can you even get it removed if you decide to?

Meanwhile here in the US, states are legalizing sports betting as fast as they fucking can. I think Missouri tried to add an extra tax to bets and say that the extra would go to “education.”

I’m not excited to learn the truth about that shit show.

Don’t forget the thousands of mods, too. And like the other reply said about server/game world settings before you start playing, there are mods that add even more settings to tweak, or they make gameplay smoother (or harder), or they add new things like weapons and vehicles. There are even entire new maps to add to play in.

It’s very doable solo, but it’s kind of a slog if you want to do anything significant in a playthrough, plus it can get very lonely and isolating.

A buffet! Oh, if only I had my wallet with me…

There’s Rock, Rock With Arms, and Big Rock Snake
