I've come close a few times. I'm so introverted usually my only friendships are held together through my significant other so if they drift away, so do I. I've tried reaching out in the past but it never amounts to anything.

What is it about Lego Island? It feels like there's always something new being discovered with that game.

I bought it on launch and I really don't remember having any issues. I'm always surprised it has such a bad rep.

Or alt qq from Warcraft.

Well that's as good a reason as any I'd say, lol.

I'd argue that FPS games have been more than that for ages. What about Half Life? Metro? Bioshock?

I hope that unlike Fallout 4, Starfield has more encounters you can talk your way out of. It drove me crazy all the named Raiders with cool back stories that you only found out about through terminal entries and handwritten notes. Don't get me wrong, I do want that sort of storytelling too, but it does sort of lend weight to the criticism that it's too gun focused, and I am definitely timid about Starfield ending up the same way.

You gotta play a few rounds of Golf With Your Friends, it's hysterical!

I would also recommend picking up Tabletop Simulator, the amount of board games that game handles through the Steam Workshop is insane.

I've been going to a weekly Magic: the Gathering night at my local game store, and it seems like a great way to meet people, but every time I feel like I'm getting acquainted with people I get pulled out of town for work. It really sucks! If it wasn't for that it would be a great place to meet people.

Came here to say StumbleUpon too. I had "cats" as one of my tags and my parents thought I must really want one because they always walked by when I happened to be on a cat page. So that's how I ended up with a cat for my birthday. Don't get pets as gifts, people.

 

Sometimes I can't be bothered to take my hand off the mouse to type. I've sometimes caught myself clicking through half a dozen or more links to get to a page I could have typed in the address bar in a quarter of the time. Is this a weird habit?

Anybody else remember Global Gladiators on the Sega Genesis? It was a McDonalds tie in but actually pretty fun!

Interesting you bring up Subnautica, because I remember thinking when I played it "Wow, this game sounds a lot like Half Life!" And wouldn't you know it, the devs started out as Half Life modders. It goes without saying that the sound design in Half Life is impeccable, and truly iconic. Clearly they learned something!

Definitely seconding this suggestion.

 

I know most of the Bethesda RPGs have massive mod support, and there's games like Minecraft that have more mods than anyone can imagine. I would consider those games pretty playable in their vanilla states. Would you say there are any games that were "saved" by modding? Or that are still kept alive by thriving modding communities? What are some of your favorite mods?
