Tolerance for the buzz, yes, but the crash... I'd imagine she wants to avoid that at all costs. The test chambers are her Keurig, Chell is the disposable pod, and oh boy - you don't want to chat with GLaDOS before she's had her coffee.

I love testing in Portal 2 being something that is baked in to GLaDOS as like, a stimulant. They gave her a programmed physiological need to have Successful Tests or she will suffer Science Withdrawal.

Oh this is crisp. A true blunder. You don't see unforced errors like these without basically hitting every branch of the mistake tree on your way down. This made my night.

BL4’s base game has a they/them nonbinary supporting character, not to mention the long list of canonical gay characters. Hammerlock, to name one, was confirmed gay in BL2 fourteen fucking years ago, and had a whole DLC in 3 centered on getting married to his husband. Chud tourism strikes again.

This is pretty gross of FuturLab. Weird 'leaver' shit aside, not telling employees about their job security does not shield them from the stress of uncertain job security; that part comes naturally. All it does is give the additional stress of a SUDDEN AND IMMEDIATE LOSS OF INCOME

That + rebinding my Profession skills to Shift + Number (e.g. F1 -> Shift+1) helped with “piano” issues for me, but it’s not a perfect solution by any means. Definitely looking forward to 3’s native controller support!

I’ve dabbled with the community mappings on Steam Controller/Deck myself, and they definitely work but I can’t use it for anything more intense than map completion lol. That said, I wouldn’t be able to play without a gaming mouse to cover my utility skills either!

The full CEO statement is insane, holy shit. Straight-up insulting a former employee, by name, in an official statement *you send to the press* is a level of cooked I simply can't understand. Literally how does Karch think this will go for him?

GW2 is like that for a lot of people, but thankfully it's also one of the best MMOs to do that with, since the game respects your time and doesn't have much FOMO or a loot treadmill. If you like the core game, you'll LOVE the expansions/living world seasons! And the mounts...best in the industry!

My family did - I was really young at the time so they thought it would be a good way to play games with the kids. There weren't a lot of other party games for the OG Xbox. Honestly it wasn't too bad! Fusion Frenzy 2 for the 360 was complete ass though.

That's fair; I did think it was funny they were like "here's 20 minutes of gameplay" and like 8-10 minutes of that were cutscenes, mostly of Faye getting manhandled and/or thrown really hard. If this is an uneditied first 20 minutes of the game then they have some pacing issues to work out.

Baker @abakes7.bsky.social · 03/06/2026
I agree that there's a lot of bland AAA tropes in the gameplay they showed, but that's all the same corridor. I don't think it's unreasonable to spend 40 seconds in a hallway in a video game

These are just nitpicks though, as a whole I'm really enjoying the combat (I picked daggers) and the world is excellent to explore. Not to mention the pixel art and music being 10/10 home runs so far in terms of atmosphere. Plus, I am a hard game enjoyer! I like the struggle, it always feels doable.

and potentially lose the bones on the way to cashing out. Boning up also feels insubstantial now that I'm at 2500 per. I would spend as much as a new weapon or a spark container on damage to have enemies take the exact same number of hits to die, and it will probably be that way for a while.

Baker @abakes7.bsky.social · 30/05/2026
The spark system on paper feels like it should be the most lenient souls-like death mechanic, since it lets you keep your bones on death until you're out of sparks, but in reality I can't really take advantage of that since all the shops are in town. I would need to backtrack out of the area I am in

Like, the Vial Bag was the first trinket I found and it basically feels mandatory for a first playthrough. Two extra vials and guaranteed heals in each feels insanely good in a game that might otherwise outright deny you healing without it.

Baker @abakes7.bsky.social · 30/05/2026
Echoing other replies: I'm having a grand old time just a couple hours in, but I do feel the frustrations around the spark and vial systems. If you're doing fine they're no problem but if you're struggling (or stumble into a really mean platforming room) then you can find yourself SOL.
