I have noticed a bit of an uptick on Switch, too, but not nearly enough when games are running upwards of $60 at retail. I’m not paying that much for a 100 hr JRPG with a combat system I don’t enjoy. Trails sold me on the combat system alone.

Seriously. I never would have bought Earthion, TWICE, if I hadn’t pirated it and fell in love with it. I firmly believe in financially supporting creators that make things I love. I DON’T believe in taking the risk of paying asking price for a game I may not enjoy in an era when demos are a rarity. As a point of comparison, Trails in the Sky FC has a demo, which I played, and convinced me to buy the full version. Pirating Switch content isn’t worth the time an effort to me, and without the demo, I never would have bought it.

Pretty much same. I came to recognize that my use of masculine pronouns had been just another extension of autistic masking, of creating a socially expected appearance. Internally, gender has never mattered to me. I’m also panromantic demisexual. I don’t have a preference for gender in romantic partners, I just don’t experience myself or others like neurotypicals do.

Looks like the hole they dragged the Brain Bug out of.

Doing this right now. I forgot how much I enjoy long hair. My hair has been short since highschool.

Peak Gowronposting!

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida. Long song with not a lot of singing.

No. It’s being tied to the tracks and being helpless to escape.

Love Steve. Been following him for years.

Here looks like my old neighbor, Todd. He passed away a couple of years ago.

Realest comment right here. Factorio does not want me to play it. I’d stink it up with my unimaginative, linear thinking.

One of my favorite songs.

Hold the line. Dark times are ahead, but they will pass. Love and compassion will win in the end.

Not nearly enough.

I cannot relate.

Here is a fantastic video on the subject.

Yep. Most of the games on the Game Gear were Master System games.

IMSA kid?

Have you had covid? I have had a similar experience, and I suspect it’s a form of long covid affecting cognitive abilities and memory. You may want to look into it, as this is currently being studied.

It doesn’t work on anything, apparently. That’s kinda the point of the post.
