@adashtra Multiplayer survival Minecraft with my kid is an exercise in patience. I’ve gone mining before and left him in the village where he said he’d build a couple of houses, only to come back and see all our materials used to build an entire network of paths in the sky above our town. He used everything - glass, blocks of emerald, just whatever he could find. I internally sighed, said it looked good (I wasn’t lying; it actually did look cool), and then we talked about having chests for sharing and chests for ourselves.
@fivedollardare Many actors end up having to wait in trailers, sometimes for brief times and sometimes for hours a day on longer shoots. Having a MiSTer would be very convenient for booting up and trying something new. I bet we could get J.Law into it. (Jennifer Lawrence or Jude Law, you decide.)
This is gonna sound silly but it kinda blew my mind when I played Cosmo D’s The Norwood Suite and observed two characters who used to work together catching up at a party. Such a mundane thing, and yet I’d never seen a relationship like that represented in a game.
Honestly believe that if everyone put as much of their own lives and interests into their games as Cosmo D, rather than generating dozens of quirky one-liners, we could collectively raise the bar for game writing one whole inch off the floor
Today I was playing the original Fable. First time. In an early quest, a man is bullying another man. I was able to get him to go away by continually farting until the bully gave up. I had never thought that a video game would let me do that.
