“My potions are TOO strong for you, traveller!”

Haven’t read it, thanks for sharing

Did somebody ever try to recreate the bion experiments? I’m pretty sure Reich is considered a quack nowadays, but makes sense to just observe things with a good enough microscope and patience, one could observe abiogenesis in some form

I don’t really hoard or own much personally. Even digitally I don’t keep that much stuff. It’s more about how easily everything is available to download. Sometimes I don’t bother going to the library because I can just find it online.

I do find it difficult to get rid of things that I no longer need. But that’s mostly because I find it difficult to find people to sell things to. In my country, they mostly use Facebook Marketplace, but I’m not on Facebook.

Hope you can enjoy your pension as much as possible.

I generally don’t download that large sizes because I don’t really have a fancy monitor or anything, but I tend to watch it once and then actually if I want to keep it, I re-encode it or compress it to something that stores well.

Yeah, it’s not looking that great at the moment, but I think that also will push people to innovate and maybe find different technologies or ways, better ways of compression, something will change.

Maybe I just have too many things that catch my interest.

The difficulty is never creating the list but actually going through it later and finishing items from it or trying out things.

I can imagine that part about live service. They probably have to spend way too much time on thinking about monetization and subscription and drip feeding content rather than just making things fun.

I think eventually the prices of memory will still drop down though. We just have to get through this AI and data-centric crisis.

Wow, i would never be able to actually watch or use 36 terabytes of media.

I do like keeping older things around because nowadays it seems like more and more things are getting lost somehow. Movies or games disappearing altogether from platforms.

The new God of War is actually still on my wishlist. I definitely want to try it. And I think games like that are great when they’re focused very much on the story and the gameplay.

Yeah, I think I stopped playing games like Warframe and Guild Wars 2 when I realized that it was too much about just logging in every day and to get all the rewards and stuff.

I used to do the same with my Nintendo DS and my Xbox 360 and just modded and do other things with it, but eventually I just got rid of everything and just have PC now.

Maybe I should just replay and emulate some games from the past.

That’s something I very much agree with.

I often find myself just looking for more things and noting it down on my wishlist.

But actually when I think of something or see something I should just download it and try it and if it’s not good just delete it and be fine with it.

Exactly. Even if you would be able to filter only those things you would love, there is probably still a massive amount of things that would fit.

I think I accidentally prayed to the wrong god…

Any roguelike gods here? Maybe immersive sim gods? None? Maybe a soulslike god?

Thanks for the suggestions!

TV tropes seems useful, but also something where I would spend waay too much time.

Searching for things from the same authors/creators is actually a good idea. I don’t really do that too often.

Maybe I’m just terrible at making choices/decisions

I do find I have this problem even without piracy

Not sure how to practice becoming better at this though.

Usually even when I made a choice, I end up doubting and eventually trying something else instead, never committing to anything.

God, I have come to you in this time of dire need, can you please suggest me what game to play next? It’s urgent!

That’s actually a smart way to go about it.

How would you approach this with bigger titles that have hundreds of programmers though?

Do you search for the lead programmer and check what games they worked on?
