this comment has been living rent free in my head since I've read it. Why do you like spoiling things for yourself?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (2 children)

i already knew about the other way, but it feels like I looked all over

spoiler


the sunless city

and i still couldn't find it. hence why i feel like an idiot playing this game bcs i follow clues it gives me and I feel like what i'm looking for is probably right up in my face but I just don't see it. ig i'll go look there again.

first chance to avoid spoilers
spoiler second chance
third chance
spoiler fourth chance
fifth and last chance, i spoil a lot of stuff here.
spoiler just in case :p but seriously though, i've played about 20 hours, I know (and visited quite a bit) about the quantum moon, i've learned about quantum imaging, i know about the eye of the universe and how the nomai have been trying to reach it (that and quite a bit about their culture), I know that if I want to reach this mystical "seventh location" that I need to have the nomai shrine be on the north pole of the quantum moon but i can't even do that bcs when i put but my scout on the moon and leave it just gives static so i can't keep in the same place. I'm trying to learn about quantum entanglement but no matter what I do the shrine doesn't tell me that i've recalled it's rule yet. i know about the ash twin project, my best guess is that it's a dome inside the twin made for evacuation in the case that the sun goes supernova (but they're all dead now anyway so ig that was for nothing), the vessel is somewhere in dark bramble but tbh I can't be bothered to look for it, it's long gone. oh and not to mention the sunless city on ember twin, what is left to look at??? there isn't anything quantum there (that I know of) so I can't just stand on it and turn my flashlight and off and zoop over somewhere else. idk what i'm yapping abt this game is just driving me crazy. there's prob a lot more i have recorded in my rumors but i don't wanna go through everything.

I never interpreted it that way (the book does change), but if you see it like that then know I don't agree with that philosophy. there are external factors that can contribute to any addiction and shaming someone for being addicted to anything is just straight up asshole behavior.

I'll just drop this here.

Watching porn isn't something to be ashamed of. Does it cause damage to the brain? yeah. Is it permanent? No. I won't judge anyone who uses porn but I sure as hell won't pretend that it's healthy.

outer wilds spoilers


spoiler no, seriously, i haven't even beat it and this is one of the most impressive games i've ever played. this is a game best experienced blind.


seriously i'm talking about games like disco elysium or portal 1 and 2 that you leave wishing you could play them for the first time again


spoiler last chance.


also tf does this mean there's more to explore here i've basically looked at every inch of this damn island (rhetorical question, if you answer it without putting a spoiler in your comment you better start working on your last will and testament immediately afterwards.)

it took me a while to find this, i figured i'd post it on 196 so that maybe it'd pop up in search results for people who want to play this in german. I don't know who to all worked on this, but it seems like this person did most of the work on it.

i usually enjoy having to figure things out in games. i really liked portal and portal 2, i still haven't finished half-life but i do enjoy the the run, think, shoot, live philosophy of the game, but I always look things up whenever I play an open world game because I don't want to have to bother with having to figure out how to progress, or even if i do bother trying to figure out on my own, the clues i find will be cryptic and I'll just look up a walkthrough or something of the like. this is most prevalent in elden ring, and I especially don't like how there isn't a quest tracker. I believe that requiring a player to take notes to remember what they need to do on a quest is bad game design, even just letting the player look through past dialog would be extremely helpful. i get that there's a certain appeal to that, but I don't get it at all.

anyways, the point is to say that I enjoy puzzles and figuring things out, but I don't like it when things are so cryptic to the point where I have to look up how to do something because never in a million years would I be able to figure it out, and if i do somehow, I'll have absolutely no idea why it works and wonder how on earth I was supposed to figure it out in the first place. would someone with a mindset like mine enjoy tunic? I haven't looked a single thing up about it since all i've heard about it was to not look things up about it.

 

spoilers for baldurs gate 3


so i'm playing baldur's gate 3 right, i'm exploring this cave, and I think "oh, there's a route to that temple of shar over there, i'm gonna jump down and climb a pillar that got knocked down to see what's going on at that temple." only to be greeted to this.

alright, this is fine, there's probably some really cool reveal that they have whenever you get there or something leading up to it. I figure how to work the forge, and I start this boss fight, after 3 party wipes, and I see that none of my attacks are dealing damage to the boss, so I have this idea to use the environment to my advantage and use the lava around the arena to damage it instead. this is what happens when I tried it.

I think outside of the box and i get punished for it? isn't this supposed to be dungeons and dragons, where you can basically do whatever you want to in order to solve a problem and have it work? i mean, my expectations were lowered significantly when i found a ordinary wooden door i couldn't break down (former nethack addict), but come on, this should've came in playtesting.
