  • What's your Patient Gamer's Unpopular Opinion?

    Jump

  • I think there is still place for AAA games since a lot of them cannot be made by smaller teams.

    I don't think games like Zelda BOTW or even Elden Ring could have been made by smaller studios. At least not to the same scale.

  • I disagree. I don't think that micro transactions make the developers bad people. I also don't think they're bad at all

    The thing about these games is that they aren't meant to be played once then put down. It's kinda like going out with friends. My friends and I have a bar we go to for food and drinks, and because of the new drinks, food, or activities they add every once in a while, it makes it more interesting for us. I know that a drink that costs me $5 doesn't cost them $5 to make, but I know the extra money is going towards those new activities, drinks, food, employees, rent, and their profit.

    The micro transactions are going towards the artists, developers, servers, etc. Not even mentioning that because of the long lifespan of these games, things like compatibility, hacks, and bugs, are found more often and they do have to be fixed to keep the player base happy. If they don't adapt then they won't keep their players. That's why we don't see games that were released at the same time as fortnite with as many players. They already went through most of the content the games have to offer.

  • Highly agree. Whenever I got good enough and I realized I was close to maybe winning my first game, it made me really proud.

    I feel like battle royales are the more social versions of souls likes

  • What's your Patient Gamer's Unpopular Opinion?

    Jump

  • Well that's a subjective opinion, but I will agree that it is not for everyone. I love battle royale games because of how intense they are.

    It's one of the only game modes that make me feel like I have something to lose if I do not perform my best. There are actually consequences to my actions, and that's why it's so intense.

    Sure, technically I can start another game, but I will not get back my previous investments.

    Also, the last couple fights before I win a game are more intense than any other game I've ever played

    Jump

  • I agree whenever it comes to PC games, but I won't buy digital media for consoles.

    Knowing that the platform will stop being supported, even if it's a decade+ later, makes me not want to buy from it. Especially since if I want to play it again I will have to pay resell prices for the game. I bought so many cool games on the Wii that I won't have access to anymore.

    Also, I like buying second hand at local swap meets and garage sales. It's a small hobby for me lol

  • What are computer gadgets everyone should own?

    Jump

  • Yeah sure.

    Whenever I'm working on a big photoshop file and I find myself using a tool very often, I bind the side buttons to that tool. At minimum I always keep the redo, undo buttons binded to the mouse.

    Whenever I'm browsing the web I have forwards and backwards binded so I don't have to move my mouse across the screen to go back a page.

    It's all trivial stuff but it makes my workflow slightly more fluid. I initially bought the mouse for gaming, but it has been super useful for me outside of gaming

  • I have nothing to back me up except my experience, but I've been using Dr. Bronner for the past 2-3 months and I'm going to switch to something else once I finish this bottle.

    I liked it, but it cleans a little too well if that makes sense. I felt like my skin wasn't left with any oils and it would dry my skin out too much. I currently have to use a bunch of lotion for my skin to not be dry, and I already used to moisturize a lot before the soap.

    I don't even use it on my face unless I have been really sweaty. There is a woman near me that makes charcoal bars of soap and that's what I plan on using afterwards.

  • What’s The Strangest Thing You Do

    Jump

  • I do the same thing with a space.

    I have no idea why I do that and when I started

  • How do you call someone born in the US besides "American"?

    Jump

  • Because the USA took that title already.

    I know a lot of people from central/south america that are mad about that and they make a comment whenever you say "american." They prefer the term "estadounidense" which is just someone who is from the USA.

    I don't blame them because it is pretty self centered especially whenever there are two whole ass continents that term could apply to, but I don't think get the anger around it lol.

  • What single item improved the quality of your life over you got it? (Buyed it/got as present/made it)

    Jump

  • I went through a glasses addiction myself as well lol. I found an eye-care clinic where they would cut the lenses and have them ready within 3 hours.

    I would go to garage sales, thrift stores, and swap meets to find glasses to put lenses on. They were like $60 for the lenses and I never spent more than $10 on frames.

    I ended up with 3 seeing glasses and 4 sun glasses before I realized it was going to be unsustainable to get new lenses for my new prescription every year.

  • Which ones did you get? My mom has that issue so it might be worth getting her some for her birthday.

    The only way she can get earbuds to stay in is to take the silicon tips off which I can imagine is really uncomfortable

  • It's October - What's your paranormal experience?

    Jump

  • This happens in my family all the time.

    I had a dream with my aunt. She was in an all white dress in a field waving goodbye at me and she was yelling stuff at me but I couldn't quite make it out. I was trying to get to her, but I couldn't get past a fence even though it was like 2 feet tall and I could easily jump over it. It felt like it was a goodbye. After a while I stopped trying to understand and get to her, and just waved goodbye, then the dream ended.

    I woke up and wrote my dream down and went on with my day. It wasn't until later l found out she had passed away. I was like 10 and at that time and I was very scared, so I didn't tell my mom about my dream until years later. She told me that happens often in my family

    I don't necessarily believe in the supernatural either, but some things I don't think can be explained. Like if it happens once I get it, but this has happened multiple times. I've seen my brother wake up from a dream and tell us about how he said goodbye to a family member only to right then and there find out they had passed away. I cannot explain it

  • I have it on GOG and I really want to play it before the end of the year.

    I've had it installed on my Steam Deck for a while now haha

  • I still remember my first Minecraft worlds. I first played it on my iPod, then on my PC a couple years later.

    I fell in love with the game twice. I think that it is my most played game of all time.

  • There's nothing better than finding a game whose game's atmosphere perfectly fits what you're going through in life

    A game that did that for me was Kona. I don't even think it is that great of a game honestly, but the mood/vibe of the game captured me and made me fall in love with it.

    I still even remember the scented candle that was lit while I played that game and every time I see the game on my catalog I instantly get reminded of the scent.

  • I went back to them not too long ago and they're still a challenge for me lol

    Even the remasters got some hate for their difficulty even though I don't think they changed it. Great games though and they have so much character. The animations are top notch even to this day
