Mostly here to kill time. Big fan of open source game engine recreations/source ports, firmware modding, Linux, and gaming in general.

I feel like you could say that about most games though. I wouldn’t say Cities Skylines is an RPG but you are fulfilling the role of a mayor. Chirper adds to the immersion aspect but I don’t think that’s enough to shift the genre.

Maybe it’s a hot take though. Kind of similarly I wouldn’t call F.E.A.R. a horror game. I’d say it’s an FPS with horror elements.

Grand Theft Auto IV gave players choice with actions instead of dialogue but I feel like the end result was similar to Cyberpunk.

Characters you decide not to kill will often help you for a bit but it doesn’t drastically effect the story. You still hit a notable point of no return that only really comes into play at the very end.

Personally that feels more like an adventure game. I don’t think Cyberpunk is very unique in what it did.

How so? To mean it felt like Grand Theft Auto IV. You go around doing jobs for individuals and get thrown a handful of choices and possible romance options along the way but it still feels very linear.

Maybe it’s because I associate roleplaying with the idea of player choice but I really don’t think it added a ton to the RPG aspect. World depth? Sure but not by much.

If you like Seinfeld or Curb Your Enthusiasm you should check out The Life and Times of Tim (www.imdb.com)

I was scrolling through animated shows on IMDb and decided to give it The Life and Times of Tim and a watch and really enjoyed it. It reminds me a lot of Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm where the protagonist gets in an awkward or uncomfortable situation and proceeds to stumble and just dig themself deeper into the pit...

It would be more for big ticket small items. Laptops and what not. You’d go down as they trickle up.

Yeah. Pull it and go to a different floor and look around. You aren’t standing around waiting for them unless you have some weird 1930s pull station

Have you ever tried an open source dating app?

I recall hearing about Alovoa a year ago and while it sounds nice with no ads or paid features, being open source, and private data being encrypted I have to imagine the userbase is incredibly small relative to other services. Google Play lists it at over a thousand downloads but it’s also available through F-Droid so that may...

You need to have sound on. She’s getting cussed at for what she’s doing

I watched the 2007 version of Funny Games and Alien Nation.

I didn’t think either was that great. I’m wondering if 70s movie called Funny Games is better.

Alien Nation was a somewhat generic buddy cop film with an alien being one of the cops and the other being a bigot. The whole movie feels like a not so subtle metaphor and the actual aliens don’t really have a unique role or identity.

I’m not surprised. TheFloW has done this before with PS4/5 exploits . A lot of players don’t update their firmware in the hopes they’ll be able to run something like HEN.

Didn’t they produce a lot of content in the Vita modding scene?

You can check the emulation wiki and see which ones they recommend. I’m not sure which are available on F-Droid but most of them are available through a GitHub page

I think my next challenge run should be beating the PS3 without reloading. If the game crashes or I clip into a rock I need to start over.

I feel like several different emojis could work

[WP] God stars in an episode of Undercover Boss but can't stop blowing his cover

I originally posted this to !shitty_million_dollar_ideas but I feel like it would be a better fit for a writing prompt. I feel like there’s plenty of chances for humorous situations like Jesus wearing a noticeably fake beard and production staff getting people to sign NDAs.
