A bit before the API thing actually went into effect. I saw it mentioned somewhere on Reddit, got curious, and signed up. I mainly browsed Reddit through my web browser, so the lack of 3rd party clients wouldn’t have really effected me, but seeing how Reddit was acting towards its users, there was no going back for me.

I’ve needed to open certain ports in my firewall to get it to properly work.

Yeah… It’s pretty brutal. I needed to consult a walkthrough even for subsequent playthroughs.

La-Mulana was great. Maybe not for everyone. It’s loaded with puzzles.

This one.

I once had a hair on my thigh grow to at least 5 inches. Then one day it was gone. I miss it dearly.

I was never really interested in VR and was annoyed at finding interesting-looking games and finding out they’re vr-only. But then I played MYST and The Room in VR. That was a neat experience.

I vaguly remember playing some version (I think a demo) of this in the 90’s. Crazy to see it’s still going. It’s on Steam. I should probably check it out again sometime.

Recently finished Ultros. Started playing The Drifter.

If you’d like a less serious, funny comedy-horror game, I enjoyed The Upturned.

Some less silly games I’d also reccomend are 10 Dead Doves
and
Withering Rooms

I might be weird, but I often just have leftovers. Or sometimes I’ll throw a frozen pizza in the oven, maybe have some salad, whatever.

All that annoying nudity.

I haven’t played this yet, so I don’t know anything about what difficulty settings it may or may not have But in general, I see difficulty settings as an accessibility feature.

I liked the way that Ender Magnolia did it, where, at a save point, you could adjust several settings to customize the difficulty. I was able to temporarily make it slightly easier just for a few bosses that I lost my patience for.

If you’re looking for scary games, Song of Horror was one of the more unnerving ones for me.

(On my wishlist for years)
Well now I don’t feel like playing it.

An when you dare to mention Linux because you think they’d have a better experience and you want to share your love of free software they act like you’re attacking them personally.

I only recently decided to switch. The biggest reason for me was setting up Windows 11 on other people’s laptops and seeing just how hard Microsoft pushes you to make an account, as well as the occasional ads I’ve seen. So with Windows 10’s end of life, I decided I don’t want to put up with that BS anymore. I still have Win10 as a back up if I need it for anything.

I’ve teared up for some. In Sound Mind made me think of my cat who was recently deceased and was more special to me than any of the other pets I had. And then there was the ending for Outer Wilds, and the… fuckin’ everything in Ori and the Blind Forest.

I used to like reading the medium - long stories on the malicious complience subreddit. !maliciouscompliance@lemmy.world just never really took off here.

What the hell are they all shooting at? And look look at this asshole… He’s not even pretending to be aiming:
