  • ...just a person called Cathy? It's not that deep.

  • Depends on the game. I've seen it labelled both ways.

  • Erm... the first three words in the first panel?

  • It's better for making a pretty island or a nicely-decorated house. And the vault pole is a real benefit early on, before you can build bridges. Otherwise, NL really is the better game.

  • As a controller nerd, I think I may be in the market for some of those hot takes

  • Yes. They do occasionally transliterate, and I think it'd be nice if they'd done so across the board.

  • Tangentially related: there are a lot of moments in Firefly where the characters speak Chinese. Instead of captioning it properly, they just write "[speaks Chinese]".

    Which is especially jarring when you have a whole [speaks Chinese] sentence with a [speaks Chinese] phrase in the middle.

  • I had Spotify on shuffle once, and it played the same song twice in a row. On two separate occasions.

  • On the modern games taking forever to get to the point: I've been playing the Paper Mario TTYD remake on Switch. Out of curiosity, I watched a little gameplay from the GameCube original... and glory be, does it look snappy. They definitely padded out the animations and stuff in the remake.

  • Could it be that you had a lot more time on your hands, and perhaps fewer games to play, as a kid? I know that aligns with my experience with other games. (Then again, having not played gen 3 myself, it might not be that deep)

  • When I did a legendary Combat Evolved solo run, there were one or two speedrunning strats I borrowed. Probably could do the same for H2 - one of the later levels, you can skip entirely if you do it right.

  • Halo 3 is a lot of fun, and it's got some brilliant setpieces, but in terms of plot it's always felt a bit of a rush job.

    Even so, I love it to bits and it occupied many memorable evenings between 2008-2010. Definitely a much easier Legendary experience than Halo 2.

  • VMware offers their Workstation hypervisor for free now. I'm able to run Windows 10 surprisingly well using that, and use relatively intensive software like Affinity Designer without any noticeable issues.

  • Or maybe they wrote 'darn' but with dodgy keming?

  • As a (almost) lifelong TS2 fan, even I would be hard pressed to pay what they're charging.

  • How would you even debadge a modern Ford truck? All the ones I've seen have FORD in massive letters on the front.

  • Indeed, though I'm afraid it's now Time to Split
