They invented sound bouncing off walls as a mechanic to make Thief. Truly a trendsetter

If I’m going to recommend old games, it’ll be mostly games from the age of Intel Pentium 3, before all this newfangled multi core stuff they’re up to these days. Anything that comes after that is someone else’s to go to bat to. Heck I was playing Doom for a few years at a cousin’s house before we had our family computer in 98
This is what I played as a teenager that still hold up in my eye.
X-wing alliance
Age of Mythology
Strongholds Crusaders
Rise of Nations
Midtown madness
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tournament Fighters
Diablo
Starcraft and Broodwar
Super Street fighter II turbo
Super Mario World
Kirby All star
Heroes of might and magic 3
Age of Wonders
I hear some of the online modes are awesome but the story was a bust. I was looking forward to a good old Homeworld story but I heard enough to know not to buy it.
It’s also one of those games that end up as discord competitive games, like a lot of fighting games. You kinda need to play against people who are really into RTS if you’re gonna play it online a few months after release.
Give me your olives then. I don’t mind
That would be fine if they were trying to reverse ALL personal vehicle adoption, but nooo.
The problem with this is that this will encourage Canada to do the same, like the good little brother it is, and we’ll get fucked along with y’all -_-
That’s not gonna do more than a drop in the bucket. Y’all’s government thinks tech can fix something that good pedestrian-first infrastructure should fix. That’s kinda wack.
Vehicle sizes, hood clearance, non-car-centric infrastructure mandates, that’s the sort of things rules should include. Not “let’s have AI decide if the pedestrian or cyclist lives”
No, because he was against the whole ethnicity, not just the state.
We also use it to weigh down our fishing lines… because we’re that smart.
They have lots of time and motivation, as well as zero shits to give about getting caught. It’s Actually a pretty good thing that kids are trying to bypass security because it naturally teaches them problem solving in a novel way
It’s potential. Matter can go there. Saying there is an end to the universe means that at some point, there is no possible expansion. It also means we are completely ignoring the tiniest infinitly small chance that our big bang wasn’t the only one. If you zoom out far enough, is there really zero chance that this “known universe” is actually just part of a greater whole?
imagining the universe as a contained thing with hard limits is what gives me the creep
I feel like I could talk about this for years, but I got video games to play. The short answer is I don’t feel like I have to know what caused the matter to all be at the same place and then expand to be satisfied with an infinite universe of finite matter. I wish my brain could understand how time as we know it started with the big Bang, but I think I’m slightly too dumb for that.
Because the universe is expanding. If it were finite it wouldn’t be able to expand. Emptiness is still “something”. If we were “at the edge of the universe”, we could still go further from the center, there would just be nothing for as far as we can perceive, maybe even infinitely, but then, we would be there. That makes it “a place”.
“The cosmos is not infinite, has a beginning and an end”
The fact that everyone around me seems to be persuaded that there is a beginning in time is unnerving to me. In my head, cosmos has always been infinite, and will always be infinite. Even if nothing is there, it will still exist.
The idea that anything before the big bang is considered to not exist has so many things wrong with it that I struggle to internalize it. If matter cannot be made or destroyed, that means that there will always be matter in one form or another.
The example of buying water in cans and protein bars are like… Ok, the money we spend on those was spent on wine and chips by my parents. Habits haven’t changed. Prices have.
His butt is dumb. It’s ok, his face is brilliant!
Undertale and For Honor
Undertale is a decent enough game, I guess, but whenever I think about it, I think about all the crazies that call themselves fans of it. It’s exhausting just thinking about it.
For Honor got me interested, but it made a few very bad choices. Magnet hands and slow attacks meant that you could react to attacks, and never had to worry about whiffing. It’s so dull to have basically no concept of interesting movement play in a game about fighting.
Now show how much trouble windows users need to go through to remove S-mode because Microsoft considers chrome to be a “potential security risk”, which… Yeah, it kinda is!
A test for what? From where? I don’t get it
