  2. What aggravates me about these kind of lawsuits and legal cases whare entertainment media is blamed for somebody's heinous actions in real life is the complete and utter failure it represents to address the real, root causes of such incidents. People are doomed to die in future incidents as a result. Whilst America's well documented issue with gun culture is certainly a factor, so I do think weapon manufactures have to held accountable, it is obviously nonsense to suggest any entertainment media, whether it's a video game, movie, music, or book, is any way responsible for the real life actions of a person. Human beings have sentience, the power to imagine and fantasize, it's inherent in all of us. We also have the ability to recognizes the difference between fantasy and reality as a part of that sentience. If a person does not have the ability to recognise the difference between reality and fantasy, then there is a problem with that person's mind. They are mentally ill. It has nothing to do with with a video game.

  3. WOW I currently have 13 dogs and @Rain Dew has one. The reason why is because my pitbull had puppies. She had 11, but one died the first night. So I have a karen pitbull, a psychotic Rottweiler, and a neurotic yorkie. @Rain Dew has a drama queen mini dachsund. The puppies are almost a month old now. The sire is my rott. Prometheus is his name. The dam is (obviously) the pitbull. Her name is Sissy. The rott is registered, but the pitbull is not despite them both being purebreds. So I have a bunch of pitweillers.

  4. Let’s leave the water temple out of this one. What is/was the hardest task you ever did in OoT? Was it collecting the tunics from the free side? Getting Epona? Or was it sneaking past the guards to meet Zelda? For me, it was the final part of the trading game to get the Big Goron sword. Getting from Lake Hylia to the top of Death Mountain was a pain. Even with Epona. In the 4 minutes given to do it, you have to exit the goofy lake guy’s house, jump on Epona, race across Hyrule field, run through Kakariko village, get to the vertical climb, take the time to kill the tektites on each ledge, make it to the Goron on top of the mountain and speak to him to finish it all. When you get to the top, he’ll use the eyedrops you brought him, and get set to work fixing the broken blade you brought him. While we’re talking about difficult tasks, has anyone ever actually beaten the shooting games, or followed Dampe through his grave in less than a minute? I’ve been playing this game since it dropped, but I’ve never been able to do it.

  5. This kind of thing is playing with fire but not having a fire extinguisher. People who start reporting anyone they didn’t like or who did something they themselves wanted. There is no way this could possibly work, without in turn causing more problems than before.

  6. Source - https://mp1st.com/news/pizza-chain-transforms-your-ps5-into-a-pizza-warmer-with-free-3d-printed-design You guys remember the KFConsole that was a custom built PC with an actual chicken warmer built in. Well now Pizza Hut has created a 3D print of a pizza warmer that can be used on your PS5. Of course you will need a 3D printer capable of printing it, but it's free otherwise. You can download the 3D print here: https://pizzahutpizzawarmer.ca/ Would you print something like this? I think it's funny, but I don't think I would do this.

  9. Terrifier 3 negative trillions out of ten Don’t waste your money on this worthless piece of shit. It’s the most pathetic excuse for a slasher movie ever. It’s nothing but a cute girl and a jackass with a sharp object. They may as well had his victims squirt up blood from their wounds that danced like the fountains in Vegas. I want the 2 hours I wasted on this abomination back. FUCK THIS MOVIE AND EVERYONE ASSOCIATED WITH IT

  11. Gremlins. They open the back of the dryer, and steal one sock to sell the gnomes as a sleeping bag. They only take one at a time to make it seem like they’re in short supply so they can hike up the price. The underpants gnomes have a whole other racket.

  12. Outlast is the scariest game I've played. It was a long time ago, although. It's an amazing game, and the best part about it is that there's been a sequel to it. I still need to play it, as I haven't yet. What about you? What's the scariest video game you've ever played? Did you enjoy it?

  14. Yes! So much of the PS5 is just recycles of prior games with fancy new graphics, but there isn't refreshing new gameplay.

  15. If you're on the lookout for a copy of Rule of Rose, at least the UK release, you may be in luck. A shipment of UK releases were found, and are being sold currently. On eBay the game was going for around $600 or so, but since the find, the prices have dropped down by half. Sadly, since a lot of people are buying up these new copies, it's likely the price will go up again, and possibly by more. But this is good news, as it means there could be warehouses with old stock sitting around collecting dust. Makes me wonder how many classic games are still sitting in a box within a warehouse all these years. I know Rule of Rose is a somewhat popular game. I have wanted to add it to my collection for years, but even with these new copies found, I don't think I'd be willing to pay $300 or so for it.

  16. There was a place in Massachusetts where I used to buy white chocolate, and it was the bomb. That shop made white chocolate my favorite. I’m not sure if it’s still around, though. I used to go there all the time when I was a kid. I wish there was a chocolate shop that was close to me in Texas.

  20. I do t know what is going on, but I'm getting concerned at some of the recent topics popping up, especially on the Mobile Games sub-forum. Why are people being so happy-go-lucky describing some of the worst things in gaming. Take this, for example: That's Pay-to-Win! Literally the worst and most universally and justifiably hated example of in-app purchases there is! And you're describing it like free ice cream! So what is going on here?

    To be fair, I've never known of a forum that would do account deletion. It's bad for forum security and post preservation. We don't do it on VGR either and there are people who have asked.

  25. Bon Jovi, Queen and Bryan Adams are some of my favourite classic rock artists, I often find myself going back and listening to songs from these artists and often wondering what happened in music and in the music world? It's a shame we don't hear songs like this anymore.

  28. Religion is oppressive by nature. Religion is what brought us the Dark Ages. In ancient Egypt, only the religious leaders had the right to read and write, to be educated, and to hold skillful jobs. Look at the Taliban making women cover themselves head to toe while paraded around by men with rifles. Religion is the gateway to oppression. In America, religion should NOT be in politics. Christianity is a tax exempt organization. If they quote the bible while writing their bills and ruling on cases, then christianity needs to be taxed. Then we also have the Establishment Clause in the 1st amendment which gives us freedom from religion and also protects religion from the government. A perfect example of what not to do is how republicans treat religion in America. Trump is now a convicted felon, a sex offender, and a fraud, who went and sold bibles with a bunch of government documents in it. Isn't that blatant sacrilege? And imagine if your religion is not the religion of the government. They will not tolerate your religious rights. Imagine your kids forced to go to schools that indoctrinate religion that teaches them things against your own religion. That’s what a religious government will do, it will infect schools, colleges, businesses, jobs, advertisements, music, movies, radio, media, science, and your personal lives in every way. Religion is poison. It’s an obsession that gradually becomes more and more fanatical with every generation as politicians want to act more morally superior than their opponents. And the whole essence of religious teachings get thrown out the window and becomes unrecognizable as a religious belief, and more like a cult terroristic belief. Progression goes backwards instead of the natural evolution of human progression with the arts, science, technology, philosophy. It wasn’t a religious government that gave us all the much needed technologies of today. Galileo was jailed for his research saying the Earth revolved around the sun and not the other way around. Religion as the basis of politics will bring society into the Dark Ages. Go back to the days of looking for witches to burn and everyone is ignorant and illiterate. And that is why I say christians in America are fakes. They are infiltrating christianity and turning it into terrorist cells, re-education centers, nazi propaganda and Russian propaganda centers. They hide behind religion to do their evil deeds, and christians let them do it. They are enablers. In fact, the Federalist Society and Heritage Foundation are two major republican religious groups in the USA who have full intention to destroy American democracy and have a dictatorship. Those organizations wrote up the plan Project 2025 where if Trump is elected, they will increase presidential powers, get rid of checks and balances, and fire all federal employees and replace them with maga loyalists. They actually wrote that plan up. No shame at all. And those religious groups handpicked our supreme court justices. The SC justices hold loyalty to the Federalist Society and Heritage Foundation, not loyalty to our constitution. Those justices are the most corrupted in the entire history of the USA and they claim to be religious. They literally take bribes and have no ethical oversight, and they refuse to hold each other accountable for any ethics violations. They are traitors. They are protecting Trump by intentionally delaying his trials. They are abusing their power in aiding, abetting, and providing comfort to traitor Trump who had a coup attempt. Religion is poison and nothing good comes from it when it's mixed with politics. Religion IS the embodiment of evil.

  32. Deep forest. Seclusion, isolation, silence, and solitude are what I crave the most. The sea shore wouldn't be particularly bad if it wasn't for the fact that it's out in the open where people will be around all the time. So if you can set me up with this cabin deep in the woods, a mile from the nearest road, I'm in hog heaven.

  33. The best example I can think of of this, is Mike Meters in the Austin Powers movies. In the third one he played FOUR separate characters. Austin Powers, Dr Evil, Fat Bastard, and Goldmember. All characters in a single film, and all played by the same man. If that’s not versatility, I don’t know what is.

  36. Yeah, this is AI generated visuals. There are subtle inconsistences with colour boundaries and shading that just don't look right. For example, no competent human artist would have so much pink and purple on both the character models (the focus for the eye) and all over the backgrounds. That happend because the "developers" specified those colours and likely negated to specify thier use or add more colours. Even the game description on Steam reads like a checkbox for an AI filter. Don't get me wrong, it looks pretty. Very pretty. I was especially impressed with the fur effects and animations, but it's also complelty shameless.

  38. I’m a decent writer. Kinda creative with my stories. There are only 2 constants in my stories. One is that I use the name of my imaginary friend from when I was little, and someone dies. Those are in every book I’ve written. In my short stories I don’t include my imaginary friend, but someone still dies. @Rain Dew can give a better insight about my stories.

  39. There's a cheap chocolate bar for only 60p in Day Today stores. Has almonds and raisins. It may be cheap, but I think it's nice. It's still kind of processed, though. Milk chocolate is always very sugary, and probably doesn't yield the health benefits of eating ordinary dark chocolate.

  40. Same here. I have a nice collection of eBooks as well. My favorite one is “48 laws of Power” and “the Law of attraction - secrets to unleashing the power from within.” I also have a few other ebooks from Scott young. He has a couple of them that you can download from his website for free.

    Winter Survival -

    This looks really cool. Winter Survival is a new survival adventure game that released in early access on steam recently. DRAGO Entertainment is behind this one, they're the team who were responsible for Gas Station Simulator. This seems to be their most ambitious title yet. You have to survive a cold wilderness before rescue arrives, and in the process you must deal with dangers like wolves and bears. It's in early access now, and can be purchased from steam here - https://store.steampowered.com/app/1394960/Winter_Survival/

  43. I agree. I've been through a lot and never used to have a lot growing up so I'm grateful for what I have. Get new and better things is always nice but that shouldn't make you neglect what you already had and was serving your needs since day one.

  44. Yes, members can edit thier own posts on VGR, but only within 10 minutes of posting them. This has been a long standing policy and it is there for security and to maintain post consistency. Being able to infinitely edit posts does open up the chance for people to abuse the system to retroactively add bad links and spam as well as "alter" arguments they have made when debating with others and unfairly affect the integrity of others posts. The 10 minute limit has been discussed before and we're certainly open to the idea of extending it if a compelling argument can be made. Even if you're already past that 10 minute window, if you report your post to the mod team and explain why you want you post edited, we would consider that request so long as there is a good reason.

  47. I used to take life as it came and never really looked at what I had and how lucky I am to have what I have. As I have gotten older and gone through some things in life, I now look at what I have and how lucky I am to have what I have and the life I have. People will always put you down for something but if you are happy in your life, what others say and think should never matter.

  48. Yeah I think it's current setup is probably the best route. No content exclusivity and complete parody across all platforms. I could see them having done something like an excusive remaster years ago during the 360 days but not now. I don't think it'd work too well now.

  49. I bought FFX multiple times because, for reason, the disk for that particular PS2 game kept going wrong. Other PS2 disks got damaged from time to time and needed replacing, but nothing like as often as FFX did. I also bought the remaster for both PC and console, so count those and I must have bought the game on 5 or 6 separate occasions. Then there some of the usual suspects that launched again and again on new hardware with new updates like Skyrim, but I think my buy count for that sits at 4, which isn't bad.
