Well I’m glad I could brighten your day. Nothing like a good laugh, eh. Take care.

I missed it skimming the article. It’s a good thing having it in the thread, so thanks for doing the work.

Working well doing what?

So if she blows you…?

What bothers me is that if nobody’s saying nothing, everybody is saying something.

But it’s supposed to mean the opposite - that nobody said anything.

Half breed and an avian steed?

Goddamn

It always bothered me that all the guards in stealth games noisily trudge around each other, yawning, complaining, coughing, but if they hear a whisper of a footstep coming from you they instantly find it highly suspicious and worthy of immediate investigation. Like, how do they know it’s not just another one of their noisy buddies?

Started with a Rift way back and recently got a Quest 3. As you’re already aware, it comes down to the games you want to play. I’ve invested a bit in a setup for flight simming, because I love helicopters. Because helis are so sensitive, VR actually gives you much better control (it also increases your immersion, obviously). I replayed Half Life Alyx recently, and it’s still great. And then I spend a bit of time in Beat Sabre several days a week. Oh, and there’s a puzzle game where you just use your hands to match a set of blocks to a 3d shape. It’s great not always using controllers. In terms of the quality of VR - it might not have improved enough to ‘cure’ your nausea yet. The quest 3 was a big step up in clarity compared to the Rift, but your peripheral vision is cut off, and it’s still a ways off from normal vision.

Doesn’t really need the speech bubble

Good old 45 degree cliffs, one of the staples of alien planets.

This reminds me so much of the scrabs of Oddworld

Is that dangerous?

Oh God

How crocs are made

How is ‘source’ part of the metaphor?

Vangers is a postapocalyptic and fundamentally strange top-down driving/exploration/mystery/action-RPG.

It has a unique back story, hostile worlds and an intriguing and expansive vocabulary that helps tell the story. If you are the type of person that appreciates poetic neologisms because they get your brain going, guessing at the etymology and sucking up the layers of connotation, this is up your alley.

Even if you manage to complete the game, you’ll be left wondering whether what happened was even meant to happen. It’s sort of post modern with deconstructed words, rituals and behaviors all jumbled up and muddled together as a result of a great and important event that once had meaning to creatures that may no longer even exist.

She does seem to have more trouble interpreting some of my requests. To my frustration Siri will show me a correct transcription of what I said and then still ask for confirmation. Or even worse she’ll ask me to repeat the entire request after producing a correct transcription. This happens a lot when using HomeKit.
