“Well Sephiroth, you’re an odd fellow but you steam a good materia.”

There’s the Pico 4 if you can get one in your country. Instead of Meta, it’s ByteDance.

I don’t even think you need the PC to go with it, really. There’s not much now that is both worth playing and isn’t also just natively on the Quest besides Alyx. And even Alyx is mostly just a “once through and done” game that is fairly short. Worth getting if you already have a PC; not worth building a PC for.

I built my PC for PCVR and the Q2. But with my Q3 there is literally only 1 VR thing I still do on the PC and that’s Heat. I also play non-VR games in it for a larger screen. Not to mention that VRChat now looks better in the standalone VR app than my now aging PC does (I’m still rocking a 1660 Super).

If you just wanna dip your toes into VR and see if it’s worth it, the Quest 3 is perfect for it because you don’t need to also buy or build an expensive PC unless you really want some PCVR exclusives.

In the US we also have sherbet which is made with dairy; but we don’t label it ice cream. So I’m guessing if we even have a legal ruling about it, it might not have anything to do with how much dairy is in it.

Also should add that my favorite non-dairy frozen thing is Rice Dreams. Which is like ice cream, but made with rice. It also doesn’t claim to be ice cream.

Narrator: “It won’t be.”

It’s the Source engine. Which Alyx is made in too.

In some parts of the world, my very existence is a crime.

For the first time ever, there is gold at the end of a rainbow.

Too bad it’s just a small amount of gold flakes in the last bottle of Goldschlager.

Reminds me of Way Side Stories from Wayside School. There’s a part in one about “self tasting gum.” It’s gum that tastes like your mouth. So you don’t really taste anything chewing your gum, but someone else can taste what your mouth tastes like if they chew it.

That’s the difference; does the mod allow interaction with the world like Alyx, or is it just you’re there, but still using basic 2D controls to manipulate shit (press E to use a door instead of grabbing the handle and pushing/pulling)?

:It doesn’t necessarily have to be open world as is currently used these days. The OG Doom isn’t exactly linear, but also isn’t open world in any sense. Remove the loading times between levels and it would be open world in the way that term was originally used. The desirable aspect of an open world, for me, has more to do with the continuity of the play space than how games calling themselves open world games are designed. Free to explore the map without it just being a series of hallways with only one actual path and maybe 1 dead end per fork where they stick a “secret” or treasure.

It just works like the way Skyrim VR just works or will it make HL2 the same kind of experience as HL: Alyx?

So… What’s his job exactly? To tell Trump “that’s not ethical” and be promptly ignored?

I know it happens because I worked at Walmart and many of my coworkers would routinly put returned food back on the shelves from the go back bins when they were supposed to be trashed, because nobody ever wanted to do the trash process or even was told about it (I only knew how and that it was a thing because I would constantly waste time going on the company intraweb and doing lessons on all the positions in the store instead of working).

If I ever need to get an abortion, things are even more fucked up than I thought. I am a man. Though I suspect if men could get pregnant, abortions would be legal without any contestation.

I never take receipts for food because even if the food is awful, I’m not returning it. They might just serve it to someone else, and I don’t want to contribute to that.

Linear, set-piece story-telling.

Copping out of an obligation?

Dude, not finishing the story and leaving us all on a cliffhanger for seventeen fucking years and then giving this as an excuse is the real cop out.

Looking back, I actually don’t like what Half-Life did to the genre. It didn’t push it forward; it made everything after a linear, set-piece experience with minimal replay value. It might have been different back in the day, but it wasn’t something I had hoped other developers clung to like they did.

I’m still waiting for the PS9. Can’t imagine how much nanospore technology is gonna cost.

Is this really how I find out one of them died? Holy shit…
