I used to spend hours editing metadata for my music library on my computer but it was a constant uphill battle. My "various artists" and "unknown album" are still a mess.

I accidentally downloaded a version of Du Hast back in the day that had a whole bunch of StarCraft unit quotes mixed into it that my dad fell in love with, despite never playing StarCraft. He literally likes it better than the real version lol.

I use mine in my car as well, it still works fine though. My car is from that weird era where cars had Bluetooth connectivity with phones but it doesn't work well enough to where I can just hop in my car and have it work, so if I'm in a rush and can't set my phone up I'll just throw on one of my iPod playlists and I'm all good!

That show was so underrated. Pity it ended so quickly.

I can third it. It totally feels like you're playing an RTS but without having to study build orders and practice your micro.

If anyone out there has never played Minecraft with a group you have got to give it a shot. Exploring and building together is really so much fun, it can't be understated!

Usually I get a few friends to play on a realm or something but they always lose interest after a couple weeks. I just joined a more regular playgroup with a well maintained server, though, and it's some of the most fun I've ever had in Minecraft.

I love me an underrated Bug superstar. In Black I used a Leavanny as mine and it cleaned house. When I played Omega Ruby my Masquerain carried my team and took me totally by surprise.

And God forbid you look for anything involving troubleshooting your home network. Good luck sorting through pages and pages of the same copy and pasted article telling you how to restart your router.

The half life games are right at the limit for me in terms of scary video games. They tread the line just enough imo. I think it's because it's not just horror the whole time, there's tons of non scary puzzles and gun-slinging going on to cool down.

Yeah the irony is that the Fallout games have some of the best environmental storytelling in all of gaming but without storytelling storytelling it's just like white noise lol

Well I would hope so for accessibility's sake

 

Been super into Minecraft lately! What are you all building?

 

I've seen a lot of people saying it lately and it's seemingly out of nowhere. I'm particularly interested because almost 10 years ago a popular Korean LoL streamer popularized the phrase in the League community and it was used in precisely the same way. Until now, I never heard anybody else say it but it really piqued my curiosity when I started seeing it again!

Did it start in a particular region or community? Slang seems like it's changing faster than ever and it's absolutely insane haha.

 

I know most of the Bethesda RPGs have massive mod support, and there's games like Minecraft that have more mods than anyone can imagine. I would consider those games pretty playable in their vanilla states. Would you say there are any games that were "saved" by modding? Or that are still kept alive by thriving modding communities? What are some of your favorite mods?
