I've installed Fallout 4 + the latest update for another playthrough, first time since 2018. I'm playing it in survival mode, the increase in immersion compared to other difficulty levels is huge! There's no fast travel and manual saving, you have to rest, eat and stay hydrated, constantly monitor …

the integration of battle.net and the seemingly multiplayer-oriented design has always led me just looking at guides and lists of gear and go "so I guess those exist in the game then?"

Diablo II rant incoming. I'm a simple guy, I just want to wear the heaviest armor and beat things with a sword. This means I've always went with a melee fighter types in RPG/ARPG's, ranged/wizardy types just don't do it for me. And I find this a bit of a problem in Diablo II. "Ranged, sir? Come in, …

Today I tried two player split screen in Jazz Jackrabbit 2 for the first time, with my 5 year old. A lot of fun. Spaz and Lori make a good team. Nice! :) I play MERCS on Amiga in 2-player mode with my 5 year-old. It seems it's his favorite game at the moment. We use the unlimited credits cheat tho, …

I installed Myst last week. I thought maybe I could make some sense out of those random puzzles 20-odd years after I last played the game, but I can't get the transition effect to work, and that's a real bummer, as it ruins the entire experience for me. So I gave it up for now and opted for Titanic: …
