I did the same thing. It may have been because there weren’t as many dlcs and expansions, but it just felt really dull. Plus it didn’t have the completely open world like 3 did. Sitting through all those loading screens every time you wanted to go somewhere was a pain.

Sims 3, with all its faults, is the golden age. Long live the mods.

This is why I like GamePass. There’s a bunch of games on there that I probably wouldn’t play otherwise. And yeah, they’re not all great, but I’ve found some that I really enjoy.

This game gets a lot of (rather justified) flak, but I’ll be honest, the first time I played this, it scared the bejeesus out of me. So much so that whenever I would play other games and the lights would start to flicker, my first thought would be “Fuck, the manpigs are coming.”

My lack of upper body strength could never.

I feel you. Whenever I mentioned where I’m from it’s always either “Oh, y’all so crazy and stupid 🤪” or “If you don’t like it, just move🙄”. Like how narrow minded and naive can you be? It’s almost as if others like to downplay and ignore the work you put in to fighting for basic human rights.

Harvard also said that its own handling of the book, a copy of Arsène Houssaye’s “Des Destinées de L’Ame,” or “The Destiny of Souls,” had failed to live up to the “ethical standards” of care, and had sometimes used an inappropriately “sensationalistic, morbid and humorous tone” in publicizing it.

The letter, signed by Needham and two other leaders of the group, said that the library had a history of handling the book “brutishly on a regular basis, as an attention-grabbing, sensationalized display item.”

I gather this has something to do with it. It’s the item that got the most attention due to of the way it was (allegedly, as I don’t have any examples) presented to the public by Harvard, which was deemed inappropriate. I guess if they would have handled the item more respectfully, it would not have gotten as much as a push to remove the binding as it did, because there are tons of books, shoes, wallets, etc and whatnot from back in the day that use human skin. Hell, even the original owner of Des Destinées de L’Ame had another book bound in skin.
So it seems it just came down to the handling and presentation.

The Grandfather Paradox, I’m partial to that one as well.

Those are fried okra!

The restaurant I ate it at would have it 😅

Oh, no, no, it’s “Think of the Children”! Saving them requires actual effort.

I’m despising the growing trend of devs/publishers not offering a physical option for consoles (looking at you, Alan Wake 2). I like having the disc on my shelf, especially if it’s a series.

Alan Wake is actually back on Steam! Remedy was able to work something out with the music rights (the reason why it was delisted) that put it back on virtual storefronts.

If there’s nothing else and they’re cooked correctly (via oven or air fryer), then they’re not too bad. I cannot stand them cooked in a microwave, but I think that goes for nuggets in general.

Oregon Trail on Apple IIGS.
We also had Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego, but I wasn’t as interested in that as much.

I’m really hoping Code Veronica is one. I tried to play the original, but I am just not made for those old school tank controls.

Man, I was looking forward to this and Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines 2, but after seeing both gameplay trailers today, I’m just… not anymore. Like wtf is this.
