    Game development career thread:

    About ten years ago I was enrolled in the game design program at Full Sail University in Orlando for one semester. It didn't pan out (game coding is too esoteric for me and I figured that out fast) but I did gain a lot of video-making skills from working with their high-powered laptop...

    Metro 2039

    Well this is gonna look amazing on the PS5 Pro. Story, and also the visuals are usually top shelf, "best in class" type of visuals for their era. Metro: Last Light on the PS3 was a rare 1080p game and looked like it was from the future / a different console generation. Basically a PS3.5 game...

    Dark Souls

    Enemy placement in DS2 was really bad compared to the others, yes. Can't remember how it was in vanilla DS2. Since I played Scholar first on PS4, then went back and played vanilla on PS3, as I do with Fromsoft. Which reminds me, is it worth playing much of the original Oblivion now that...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Wild how many people suddenly care about this dude, when those of us (on here) that were talking about him five years ago were called "kooky conspiracy nuts" regularly by the same normies. Now he's everywhere!

    Dark Souls

    Just realized that Rom was an intentional boss name to throw off internet searches for "Bloodborne ROM", just like naming the Elden Ring horse "Torrent"...

    The comments on this thread really are hilarious, people are letting this wokescold have it pretty hard: The funniest part is the Koreans probably did do it on purpose, Koreans don't give a fuck.

    Crimson Desert

    Wot? That's literally what I'm saying in the statement at the end. That I prefer a short game with soul over a long game with a ton of content....and this seems like the latter, based on the thread. And the EQ thing is largely based on... so many people in this thread mentioning EQ and that...

    Dark Souls

    Friend of mine tried Bloodborne for the first time and beat Cleric Beast on the first try, at whatever the default level is. Only other From game he played is Elden Ring, which he played for like 150 hours, so that's probably why. He was like "I thought Bloodborne was supposed to be super hard"...

    Crimson Desert

    Even though he's a woke busybody looking for things to get "concerned" about, that Jaffe guy is kind of not wrong to make the observation that that's an on the nose depiction of a stereotype. Is it an intentional one or not is the question. Is he an anti-semite for noticing this? If someone...

    Crimson Desert

    Yeah man. There was a time when I would have been really down for this. It sounds like a single-player EQ, which is exciting, and I'm still going to give it a try in a week once my vacation starts. But I'll say this, I'm mostly playing it to see how insane the visuals are on my new PS5 Pro and...

    Taxes / Tax return questions

    Maybe I'll do that. Should have asked this sooner instead of posting a whine about it right after the deadline. Then again, doing things in a timely and expeditious manner isn't exactly my strong point nowadays is it? I seriously grappled with this for hours and hours, and put my hands up at...

    @Koushirou This is true Do it, weed him out if he can't handle it. If he's from NYC, holy shit, good luck.

    Taxes / Tax return questions

    Did a lot of Uber the past several years to make ends meet (quite lucrative around a metropolitan area, it turns out). Got a big ol' 1099-K for it. Have to process it myself this year, where previously I had other people do it for me. Trying to put this in on Freetaxusa which I used in the...

    Dating

    My first girlfriend, her Jewish parents really wanted her to break things off with me and that was one of their plays. "Stay away from him for a while and if it's meant to be then you'll get back together" She bought into it fully, having watched lots of romance movies. Having some distance...
