DOD:S isn't talked about as much as the other Source-Engine multiplayer shooters of its day, but damn is it great. There's still full servers if you ever feel like hopping onto a game with a bunch of old farts and chilling out.

All sci fi games should be shooters. Melee isn’t just conceptually stupid, it’s also just fucking boring. If the game developers are making a game set in the future, they should feel comfortable with introducing modern and futuristic weapons. Laser rifles, gravity guns, portal cannons, artillery, nukes, missile launchers, energy shields, drones, mechs, and more are all way more fun options. There are so many creative and underused weapons in futuristic shooters. The fucking dogmatic push for shitty weapons to become standard in futuristic games like destiny, fallout, and borderlands is so pointless.

I want a weapon like the gravitational beam emitter from blame, or the javelin from anthem. Not a fucking lightsaber in battlefront or an actual frying rolling pin from fallout.

There's no proper word to describe just how cultish and odious Nintendo fanboys are. There's a weird game of telephone going on because I've seen people accusing Palworld of being made with AIs or stealing from artists when it's not and at worst they are obvious parodies of pokeymans.

why do video game remakes fail to capture what makes the original game special all the time even though they are good games they still fail as remakes let's take a look at RE2 remake or the RE4 remake and FF7 remake. i am pretty sure the MGS3 and Silent Hill 2 remakes are gonna be just the same.

I really wish this game had been good but it isn't, the design is completely boring. I just want a good game where I can run a country (preferably in the modern day) that isn't yet another HOI mod. Any suggestions outside of the obvious Paradox fare?

the mission from cod 2 where you hold a line and do a mass charge still pops in my head randomly with the music 20 years later

So, i live with a minimum wage and sometimes barely make ends meet. in recent years since ive had some cash to spare i brought games on steam (sometimes at full price) the thing is. i feel like a moron being ripped off. these companies have been adding piles upon piles of dlcs and battlepasses even in singleplayer games. Silent hill 2 remake is 27% of my wage alone (i didnt and im never buying it cuz fuck konami) i hate these greedy companies and i dont want to support them. should i feel like scum for pirating games?

If you haven't already. WITNESS! How enforcing veganism is necessary to tackle the climate crisis. Among other things. Can you save the great barrier reef though? Maybe by rushing solar radiation management you can. It's on Steam and it's free. It's not as buggy as it used to be either, you can no longer stack overflow wildlife protection and break the game.

I do wish you could play until the end of your term though even if you hit the victory conditions. I want the space colony.

(not putting on games yet so more people can see it)

In what direction would you take Minecraft, were you able to miracleously buy it from the Corporation of Evil?

Let’s say that something within the empire just fails. The emperor simply gives out completely, but the astronomicon stays intact. Wars break out, but somewhere down the line, the inquisition and mechanicum find themselves to be in complete control over the wider imperium. Former planetary governors are replaced with members of the mechanicus or inquisition. Additionally, another war breaks out that makes these two factions merge into one single organization. Let’s just call this organization ‘the new inquisition’ or NI for short.

Unlike its predecessors, the NI does away with the dogma of the former imperium. Instead, this group hastily works to adopt all the technologies mankind currently has in mass. Surveillance and monitoring systems are so prevalent that any member of the NI can monitor the oxygen saturation levels of all its citizens at any time. The corpses of the fallen are used to nourish the embryos in vitae wombs until nearly the entire human population rebounds. However, this generation of man is equipped with sensors and connections to a wider internet that can be accessed by any of NI’s members. Information about the atrocities the soldiers and citizens under NI face is used to channel frustration and anger to all the forces of chaos, heretics, and aliens that roam the stars. Humanity’s history is taught again, but only to strengthen the interest of the organization. The age of strife is taught as a gift from NI to save humanity from alien caused extinction, the heresy is treated as a dark age caused by the emperor’s conquest over humanity, and the emergence of NI is taught as a gift to return to greatness. Within only a few years, nearly all of humanity is so heavily indoctrinated, monitored, and exploited that all signs of heresy is ultimately eradicated. Even the NI’s members aren’t able to develop any critical thought against the current progression of the new imperium. Naturally, the members of NI slowly but inevitably become fully proletarianized by the remaining members of the imperium. What drives the new imperium now is species-level hysteria and information systems dictating what the empire must accomplish. Man becomes totally enslaved to its own ideas.

Ultimately, the wars of the future become even more scary. Alien corpses are brought back to newly formed hives to be publicly mocked and shamed. Trillions of humans are spread out to new worlds to completely excavate and build new fortifications. Although technoPost too long. Click here to view the full text.
