'Retro style' is a bit of a hard genre for me to pin down, but Cuphead is great if you like action/platformers, and its art style is incredible. Super meat boy is a good classic platformer that requires a lot of precision and is very fun. But you could always go back and play retro games too. Half Life, for instance, is still an amazing game, despite being over 20 years old. What other kinds of genre are you into?

Ive played Cuphead and Half Life. those were fun. didnt care for Super Meat Boy really.
Ive played a few of these Kings Field style games like Lunacid, Monomyth and Dread Delusion and had a lot of fun with those. but I like Rpgs, FPS, Metroidvanias, Point and Click games of all types and I like a horror games if their not the ones made in a week in Unity.

German Fetish Ball looks good. But I won't be in may, so board game and pint it is.

Thanks! Do you want a souvenir?

OK, I should buy some bikinis, then.

It's really a nice Wednesday!

Having too much coffee that you are fully awake but body can no longer stand is hilarious

either. I miss simple old games and its all ive been playing

Well, I'm sure you've already heard of Doom and Quake unless you're pretty young (don't worry, not going to ask).

There's also Hexen, Rise of the Triad: Dark War, Blood, Duke Nukem 3D, Marthon, Shadow Warrior, Redneck Rampage...

Hello nostalgia.

I'm not sure how many (if any) of these games are available but hopefully some names can get you started.

---

I remember Rise of the Triad quite fondly because it released while I was still very young and my Dad, who was very open to me playing violent video games even at that age due to my nightmares and night terrors - thinking games of the time like Doom could be a positive influence (which they were, for me) because you're literally fighting demons and monsters - hesitated with Rise of the Triad because the enemies in that game can surrender and you can choose to kill them anyway, unarmed and defenseless.

He took the time to explain why he was holding back for a while with that one, and then we played it together and I remember the first time I shot one of the characters after they surrendered. All he did was ask me why I did it. "..they would have just tried to hurt me again." is what I told him and it made him smile. He told me later that the reason he smiled was because I thought about it, weighed the consequences, and chose to keep myself safe.

As far as modern retro "style" games are concerned, I'd have to do more research. Beyond AVN's with my wife and game time with my kids I don't really have a lot of time to game myself anymore so I'm not in the loop there. Feel free to DM me your interests or mention here anything I can use to try and dial-in some recommendations for you though because I'm more than happy to help.

Yea Ive played some of the doom games (I think 1-3) and played Quake as well.

Hexen looks pretty good imo. And Rise of the Triad sounds pretty good from how you describe it. Ill check it out too. Ill start with those and Ill message you with some of the ones ive tried.

I'm back, with an epic fail of a sleep. Went to bed a reasonable hour and now I'm here just over an hour later. I don't think my sleeping pills are cutting it anymore. Good thing I have a doctors appointment in the morning.

Perhaps if she was sleeping next to me, I'd still be in bed...

 

[uncbuck]

And I am all caught up with my evening backreading so it is bed time once again . Just a quick goodnight before I hobble off to bed. I am pre-positioning a few canes around the house in case that knee is totally locked up if i wake up in the middle of the night. Goodnight all

Today's theme of leash...

Hey guys, so my alt patron, as well as Discord with my Gmail account I used for them, was just banned all at the same time. Someone made multiple complaints against me. I think I know who it was, but I have no proof it was Tess or her simp army. Thank god I don't use the same email for this site, so I'm a bit pisst right now.

Oh damn that sucks...I thought you were working with them?

Balatro is amazing. Sooooo much replayability, and easy to pick up and put down if your life is like that. If you like deckbuilders like Slay the Spire or Monster Train, its an absolute must.

I've definitely wish listed it on Steam. They are offering a really good bundle for Balatro and Slay the Spire, but I already have later (which I have yet to play). Thank you for your response.

I suppose it's the eternal struggle of the introvert; hide in our dank dens, or emerge into the world and try to pretend to be extroverted (and thus become EXHAUSTED)? I've never found a good answer, though drinking certainly makes the talking-to-other-people thing easier, both online and IRL.

I am also 90% introvert, according to Myers Briggs and I drank my whole life since I was a teen. Which helped me over come my social and general anxiety. But back on Feb 14, 2019, I decided to quit drinking, as it was getting out of hand, I was doing stupid shit and I had a fatty liver and the meds I was taking said I shouldn't drink when taking them, so I've been sober since. It has NOT been easy being social while being constantly sober. One of the meds I' m on, has removed most of my anxiety, so I'm still adjusting to what that feels like as I've been anxious my whole like. Anyways, I wanted to share my perspective, you do you.

Balatro is really fun. Getting your score to go ridiculously high is very satisfying, lots of unlockables and it has a handful of different decks that give you different bonus.

Very tempted to get this. Not sure how long I will hold off...has it ever been on Steam sale, do you know? Thanks for your feedback!

Broke away for a drink and a snack, so checked in...

Yeah - I almost never grab the day of release for any title, but I did intend to get to it much earlier than I did. Several of the VNs in the queue ahead of it had issues with rewrites, Modders disappearing, bullshit associated with Steam releases, and I had to do a few full replays. Then, as I finished one, something in the queue would jump ahead - I sort my folders on the external by date, and get the one that had been updated the least recently, and if something with an older save date than Eternum released, then I got it. I have made a couple of exceptions - tried doing one, but it was royally fucked up due to a RenPy change, and I wasn't in the mood to completely start over at the time. Might get it next; and, while Chasing Sunsets was technically in line ahead of this, it was a "Sancho" mod VN that has some complexity to it, so I was waiting to see if he came back, then saw that there were some epilogues coming, so I moved that until the epilogue versions are released. Already had to do a full replay of all my paths on that after they did the RenPy change, and if I have to do them all again, I want to wait until full completion.

Definitely my top VN - it's one of my signature items someplace else. And, since redheads are a thing with you, please meet my goddess:

Do you love and adore me as much as I do you, Nova?


And, just in case @𝐿𝒶𝓏𝒶𝓇𝓊𝓈 is around:

Okay, you may have convinced me to bump this up my play list, cause redheads are the best. Is the blue haired girl that looks like Jinx in Eternum as well?

I hope you all like a bit of playtime, because our theme today is leashes!



Have fun! And follow the rules! Ask if you don't know them!

Balatro is still relatively new (a little over a year) and very popular. It hasn't really gotten a deep discount, but it has been going on sale pretty regularly for 20-30% off. Also if you didn't know, steam bundles let you "complete the bundle" if you already own some the items in the bundle. For example, since you have Slay the Spire in your steam account already, it would subtract the cost of Slay the Spire from the bundle. You still get the extra discount for the bundle, even if you're only buying one game in it.

How are you guys?
For a few days now I've been waking up sometime between 3 and 4am, no matter what time I go to sleep, then I'll stay awake for a while and then get sleepy again

 

[Dean Wincester]

Good morning everyone!

Hope you're all doing well, time for me to grab a coffee and do some backreading.

I agree wholeheartedly Baka.

Hahaha I had a similar thought when i said it.

Your gifs are always miles ahead of mine. Don't think I'll ever be very good at it and don't have the time more often than not but it always makes me smile to see when we all make new ones.

I'll probably miss out if you create a proper quote wall. It's very early for me, I work in a few hours and I'm deep into my nightly drink - some Johnny Walker: Black tonight.

I'll be joining my wife in the ether soon enough here but I really want to finish this damn chapter. (Doing some more writing and I've hit some serious writer's block.)
