  • I never forgot the woman who asked me to look for her husband, I found him, dead, killed by bandits. She was in tears, saying life would never be the same.

    Five minutes later I sold her stuff, and she was like “Nice weather today, isn’t it?”.

    That killed every immersion at that moment.

    It was Skyrim. It has fantastic moments, but there are lots of moments that kill every immersion it built up on a grand scale.


  • Dead Space. Ammunition is displayed on your weapon, health and stasis on your suit.

    Prey 2016 also displayed your ammo on your gun, but had traditional health bars (it was an fpp game after all).

    But I like a good HUD if it’s implemented in the story, like Cyberpunk where it’s a part of your augmented eyes, like an advanced Google lens. Doom did the same with the helmet.

    Regarding GTA V, I never got to know the city well enough to play without a map. That fucking town was just to big for me. But I remember Vice City, I knew the map in and out, and playing without a map was fun!



  • Seriously, I loved Tenet! I had to watch it multiple times to finally understand how they moved through time relatively to the opposite side, what happened how, and it was fun and really well thought out. I loved this take on time travel!

    Yes, you can understand the movie after watching it once. But there are so many little details that you won’t get if you don’t watch it multiple times, I had fun puzzling it together!

    It’s in my top three of the Nolan movies! And the music was great, I did not mind that it was too loud!


  • It’s funny. Before this crackdown none of my co-workers used adblockers. To install an add-on was too much hassle. They just watched the ads.

    Now suddenly they became interested after hearing about them again, and almost all are running Firefox with ublock origin now.

    YouTube should have just kept quiet, I don’t believe they are better off now more than before.
