If anyone needs video confirmation, Rtings made a video comparing the box to commercial air purifiers.

Valve tried trackballs with the Steam Controller but ditched them for trackpads that emulate trackball physics. They found small ones felt bad but big ones were too bulky and heavy. Clearly they like that idea, since every controller-like thing they’ve designed since includes pads.

If you’re talking about not wanting to mess up the recommendations you get on YouTube, you can delete videos from your viewing history and they won’t count for recommendations anymore. A private browser window will also work.

Very big snooze

Can’t wait for the DLC

If you haven’t done so already, I suggest you start taking notes while playing the game. You’ll need to keep track of what you have to come back to a place for.

It’s actually spelled “chamberrr”

It’s been showing up more and more in my area over the past several years

Swift’s essay is widely held to be one of the greatest examples of sustained irony in the history of English literature.

Not your everyday irony, but sustained irony.

I recommend you avoid games with continuous movement early on. Moving with joystick feels very bad until you get your VR legs. Also get the Lab, Valve’s free VR minigame collection.

I don’t think it has ever gone on sale.

This game is timeless. It was released in a time when the arena FPS was on its way out and server browsers were still the norm for PC online multiplayer, yet it has hardly aged.

Bastion 👍

If you liked Pseudoregalia, why not try the other N64-style 3D platformer released in 2023 with a goat protagonist trapped in a dream, Corn Kidz 64? Yes, this is a particularly specific coincidence. It features great humour, extremely cartoony animation, and polished movement. It’s very much quality over quantity.

I also “completed” Dead Cells and went “yeah, that’s enough.”

Anyway, my games.

Completed games

• Neon White
  • Run fast. Puts you in the speedrunning grindset. Corny anime plot. Unnecessary dating sim elements. The addictive gameplay carries it.
• Slayers X: Terminal Aftermath: Vengance of the Slayer
  • Retro-style FPS with stylistic suck but still with lots of in-universe and IRL soul. Takes the piss out of edgy teen boy fantasies. This is an essential part of the Hypnospace Outlaw canon.
• Gauntlet Slayer Edition
  • It’s Gauntlet but modern. Fun dungeon crawling online co-op with friends.

Games that aren’t reasonably completeable

• Shotgun King
  • Chess but the only piece you have is a king with a shotgun. It was fun for a bit, but I quickly lost interest.
• Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed
  • Kart racing. Cool maps that change over time. Less bullshit than Mario Kart. It has a hint of more “hardcore” racing mechanics, so it felt like I had more agency. It’s a 2013-era PC game with a surprising amount of jank to make work properly.
