[lucid pewter]

Thinking about tying Deathloop for first time on PC…should I play with controller or mouse and keyboard? Any suggestions for a brand new player. Haven’t really watched any videos …I work full time so don’t have that much time. If someone wants to give me a run down of what I need to know that would be awesome…just some quick tips and tricks

[sage ice]

play with what you are comfortable using

[sharp briar]

Exactly

[hallow hemlock]

Hi

[paper flare]

help, it appears to me that I have the call of duty cold war but when I go in it tells me to buy it 😐

[sharp briar]

Hmmm

[long maple]

the story unfolds just by playing as you pick up hints along the way, while going through each time of day. only certain things are open in certain times. but majority of them have waypoints so its easy to navigate and the world isnt that big

[astral saffron]

I really tried to enjoy Deathloop but I couldn't get into it

[sharp briar]

R you going to the exact game or r u clicking warzone or modern warfare and on it your going to Cold War?

Cuz you have to go to the exact game file

@paper flare

[cyan quiver]

It felt like Dishonored but with guns

[sharp briar]

( . ) ____ ( .)

Anyone listen to Van Halen?

[halcyon stratus]

Are they an indie band?

What genre?

[sharp briar]

They’re a rock band

They’re the ones that sing jump and Panama

[rich aurora]

Nice pfp tacticat

[long maple]

have in the past but only stuff they are well known for. I go through phases of genres I listen to, but recently its mainly been DnB and EDM stuff thats on Monstercat. dont like Chart music gone downhill for years now

sometimes I listen to 90s hiphop old school stuff. dont like the new stuff

[sharp briar]

Gotchya

[long maple]

thats why I like Spotify so much everytime you listen to a new genre. they give you a daily mix, so I am finding new artists to add into my own playlists and liked songs.

[sharp briar]

Indeed

I’m more of a Green Day and Metallica Dude

[brave junco]

My music taste variates.

[halcyon stratus]

Oh I’ve heard of Metallica - they’re the cringy old dudes that don’t like music streaming!

[sharp briar]

Uh they’re no cringy

[brave junco]

I like Metallica.

[sharp briar]

What is cringy is my chemical romance

[sharp briar]

Yes sir you know what good 🫡😌😎

[pearl crater]

[fluid creek]

[queen lotus]

It’s still up

[upbeat nebula]

Do u know why my games say it took to long to start

[queen lotus]

Sounds like a xbox error loading the game

Unless you’re talking about FIFA 23 trial

Then yes, that’s still having issues

[upbeat nebula]

No I’m playing a different game

Rip

[jolly valve]

What game would that be

[floral whale]

How's you lot this evening

[upbeat nebula]

Assassins creed origins

I also tried to start over watch 2 but it says the same thing

[floral whale]

have you tried restarting the xbox or WiFi Since thay could be causing interface

[upbeat nebula]

I reset my Xbox but not my wifi

I just tried to open setting too but it says it took to long to start

[floral whale]

that dosnt sound good

[upbeat nebula]

I cant even open Xbox assist

[floral whale]

I'm betting on something being broke

maybe just leave it off for a while and try again later

[topaz dew]

silent hill live stream in 30 minutes

[floral whale]

oh for real?

[topaz dew]

yeah

[floral whale]

imma actually check it out since It has my attention

[topaz dew]

silent hill short message is supposed to be revealed

[hexed merlin]

don't get your hopes up too much

[topaz dew]

i like your pfp

[hexed merlin]

imagine them just announcing a mobile silent hill game with gacha mechanics

[floral whale]

they never are lol

[upbeat nebula]

Do you think the problem is because my hard drive is making a clicking noise

[floral whale]

yes that would probably be it

[upbeat nebula]

Ok thanks

[hexed merlin]

tyty, MF DOOM is a legend man.

[topaz dew]

he is

[hexed merlin]

or rather.. was.. but uh anyway

[topaz dew]

it’s on live with IGN right now

https://youtu.be/zjeFeZly8ho

[long maple]

event is on for around 30mins or so. but yeah will end up with countdown timers and everything before it starts

[dark sparrow]

With the accidental pre listing this morning, I'm not too terribly excited for the silent Hill stream

[long maple]

I wont be watching, can just catchup on Twitter later

[topaz dew]

do you think they’ll talk more about silent hills? or do you think it’s a whole new game being announced

[cerulean basin]

It is an event specifically about Silent Hill, so it would make sense

[topaz dew]

no silent hills was a game they were making P.T was the demo for it but supposedly it has been canceled

[long maple]

yeah doubt Xbox will be part of it, you know how Sony are

[topaz dew]

i meant another silent hill game in the franchise

[long maple]

yeah no point speculating when the show starts so soon

[topaz dew]

it’s fun

[long maple]

we dont do rumours/leaks in this server though

[topaz dew]

do you think they’ll drop another demo/playable tester

[cerulean basin]

Oh right, that one I'm sure we'll never see more of, ever

[topaz dew]

i’m not talking about leaks or rumors

[desert sonnet]

Silent Hill in 20 min. 🥳

[long maple]

I cant talk about anything much, I am just the news guy. so I avoid all that stuff incase I accidentally say something I shouldnt

[topaz dew]

i’m just asking what they thinking will happen/ what they hope for

[long maple]

more skateboards lol

[topaz dew]

idk how people skate

what’s tour favorite silent hill protagonist?

[desert sonnet]

I still need to play the original Silent Hill games. I'm just watching the event cause I know how much of an impact the series has had on the horror genre in gaming.

[long maple]

no point asking me, I vaguely remember playing the game

[chrome pendant]

I've never played Silent Hill but I like the one with the pyramid head and the big ol' blade.

[topaz dew]

you can watch playthrough on youtube to you don’t have to break the bank buying a the games

[desert sonnet]

I have the games. I just haven't gotten around to playing them lol

[topaz dew]

pyramid head has such a simple but good design

[long maple]

I only ever owned PS1 and PS2. way back when.

[topaz dew]

i mainly played spiderman on the ps2

[chrome pendant]

I loved playing the PS2 when I was younger, such a Sly Cooper junkie lol

[topaz dew]

the amazing spider-man 2 game on the ps3 (i think it was on xbox) was so fun

do you like the thumb stick placements on xbox controllers?

[unique wasp]

I haven’t touched a silent hill game. Might be the biggest franchise i never tried once

[long maple]

yes much better than anything else

[chrome pendant]

I find it easy to use so yeah

[topaz dew]

personally i don’t like them

[native fern]

what are y'all's fav superheroes/heroes from DC or marvel

[unique wasp]

Superman and black adam

[undone ravine]

@fluid creek respond in 2 minutes otherwise he doesn't get nuggets

[cerulean basin]

Sigh... this has not been my best Overwatch run today :/ I gotta learn how to play some of the other characters for when the time comes to choose another, I'm not an immediate disaster 😂

[topaz dew]

the biggest franchise i haven’t touched is probably AC or MSG

[chrome pendant]

I'm a sucker for Deadpool

[long maple]

I was 14 when the PS1 released. so yeah my hands were smaller didnt notice it. but now yeah offset sticks are much better

[native fern]

I got POTG 3 times lol today aswell

[cerulean basin]

[topaz dew]

gwen pool

[native fern]

[chrome pendant]

I may not be Sam... but give that dog nuggets!

[undone ravine]

Overwatch reset MMR in the years since I've played since I've just been constantly destroying people

[ivory lily]

Who wants me to dm them a meme?

[topaz dew]

11 minutes !!

[undone ravine]

Only counts for Sam. It seems as if she doesn't want the dog to have nuggets

[native fern]

Nice, mines spiderman or wolverine lol

[topaz dew]

i’m down

[cerulean basin]

I know he's a jerk, but I really enjoy Damian Wayne's comics with Superboy. Has a different feel-good style and pace.

[topaz dew]

who’s your favorite life is strange character

[native fern]

never played it

[topaz dew]

missing out man

[native fern]

[brave junco]

https://open.spotify.com/track/1lqMLr9Wj7SM2F9AikGcxN?si=x9OgUS32QjepiBg7KrQCMw&utm_source=copy-link

[cerulean basin]

I don't think I've ever even used Symmetra and Zarya 😅 Mei... I don't think I understand the right way to play as her, I never seem to kill anyone before I die.

[long maple]

main character from the newest game that released. forgot her name

[topaz dew]

alex chen?

[tired hare]

Red hood I always loved his sense of humour and the fact he will kill everyone to prove a point plus he good rival to Batman's idea of justice

[native fern]

redhood is amazing, I like Deathstroke from DC tho

[long maple]

yeah.. I play so many games, easy to forget

played 1,719 games in 14 years

[inner arrow]

Play Mei and Zarya right and you can be a beast. Symmetra is basically easy mode rn

[cerulean basin]

Gotta love Warren Graham. He's just that charming nerdy boy next door feel that just feels like the friend I would have liked to have nearby when I was a teenager.

[tired hare]

Red hood is one most underused anti heros u could easily make a bunch a games with him

[inner arrow]

Also Anchel you wanna play OW in the coming days? Need the ‘play with a friend’ achievement lol

[cerulean basin]

Not tomorrow (Black Adam at IMAX), not Friday (friend's goodbye party). Was planning on jumping into either Gotham Knights or Persona 5 on Saturday, and Sunday I'm probably doing movie night with friends at home. But if things change, I can make space for some rounds with you 🙂

[long maple]

the whole Silent stream has gone up already

[inner arrow]

👍 Just let me know

[fluid creek]

@undone ravine i was in a meeting so rip

[desert sonnet]

Yea IGN seems to be the most on time so far.

[cerulean basin]

Will do 🙂

[brave junco]

Anyone know how to remove an alt account on twitter?

[undone ravine]

Look at how upset you made him

[cerulean basin]

Your own? Or someone else's account they have created with your name?

[brave junco]

My own.

[half hazel]

terrifier 2 is making people pass out lol
I think ima have to go watch it

[inner arrow]

For no reason at all tbh

[desert sonnet]

Alright here we goo. 10 seconds!!

[native fern]

because of all the "gore", I watched the one scene and literally laughed

[inner arrow]

I bet everything is a ps exclusive lol

[desert sonnet]

That's a nice roach.

[foggy skiff]

Chris Jericho will do that to people

[inner arrow]

Yep Silent Hill 2 that is

[long maple]

I am not saying anything, I just skimmed through the whole thing.. but yeah. enjoy the stream

[half hazel]

I played scorn so eh
Cant be too bad

[native fern]

it really isnt

[desert sonnet]

Oooo if that's gameplay, that looked good.

[inner arrow]

Bloober? Lol

[native fern]

omg its the guy from dead by daylight/j

this game looks sick

[desert sonnet]

He definitely looks like an older Leon Kennedy lol

[long maple]

Konami accidentally published the whole stream, which is weird for them but I see you watching it

[desert sonnet]

Ha. Silly Konami

[inner arrow]

Sony exclusice

[native fern]

ps5 exclusive

[desert sonnet]

It'll be on PC at least

[inner arrow]

Could have been a sony showcase smh

[long maple]

yeah cant come to other platforms for atleast 12 months

[floral whale]

I find it funny how Sony has all these exclusive but complain when we get exclusive

[inner arrow]

Bloober team is known for stealing art and stuff. So a remake seems to be a natural process for them

[desert sonnet]

First part of the project.. interesting

[versed swan]

geniuses in the tech room

[tired hare]

its real 👀

[versed swan]

but i skipped around and won't spoil anything, but it's pretty cool

enjoy, stay excited

[inner arrow]

The Silent Hill 2 remake already lost my interest because of the devs lol

[brave junco]

I don't mean like that. I've got the "multiple accounts" feature on and want to remove one of them.

[tired hare]

ya part of me says there is something bigger that will be announced since thats at the start of the show

[desert sonnet]

Silent Hill battle royale

[topaz dew]

ps5 exclusive for sh2 remake

[desert sonnet]

It'll have a Silent Hill battlepas

[inner arrow]

Of course it will be Silent Hill 5 or something and then another project. Cause the showcase is 40 minutes

[versed swan]

y'all will see, but keep your hopes up

i skipped around a lil bit

[desert sonnet]

So you're telling me, there's a chance at a Silent Hill battle royale?

[inner arrow]

Yes. And of course a new pachinko battle royale silent hill

[versed swan]

||no sorry|| spoilers ig

[tired hare]

smh it says wishlist now but the ps app doesnt have anything

[desert sonnet]

I ain't clicking that spoiler . Smh

[topaz dew]

my service keeps going away ☹️☹️ so i can’t watch

[versed swan]

oops forgot ping mb

[cerulean basin]

Then just remove that one. It should let you choose which one you deactivate.

[inner arrow]

Ew Bloober lol

[sharp briar]

Goober!

[topaz dew]

70 dollar ps exclusive remake

[desert sonnet]

No chance it'll make the same impression. Too big a hill to climb

[inner arrow]

https://youtu.be/B0fm2lRrEg0 (Profanity warning maybe?) this is the studio handling Silent Hill 2 remake lol

[sharp briar]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[topaz dew]

added to pc in 1-3 years for full price after hype dies, announce sequel

[inner arrow]

At this point… just give us a proper remaster of the old game

[topaz dew]

what’s been announced in the live stream so far?

[brave junco]

From here, I meant. Sorry if I wasn't clear enough.

[topaz dew]

don’t get me wrong ima pre order it the moment it comes out but still

[wild tulip]

Devil in Me is releasing soon right?

[long maple]

yeah it is

[inner arrow]

Silent Hill 2 by bloober. And that they went to poland last year to see the progress. Also Sony is moneyhatting this

[topaz dew]

im excited for it

[wild tulip]

Are you getting it Paul?

[desert sonnet]

I like that guy's shirt.

[topaz dew]

what is moneyhatting

[long maple]

nah I still not finished the other ones.. Wife played Man of Medan for about 2 hours hasnt played it since

[inner arrow]

Buying exclusivity

[cerulean basin]

Ah ok, so you don't want to delete an account, you just want to unlink them from one another

[wild tulip]

Exclusivity is so 2010

[brave junco]

Right

[desert sonnet]

That lady needs to get it together. She was surprised there was more. Didn't they rehearse? 😏

[inner arrow]

I am just gonna say this : Silent Hill hasn’t worked with western devs yet

[cerulean basin]

Then just log out. The accounts are not connected per se. You just happen to be logged into two accounts.

[brave junco]

Ah, gotcha. Thanks anchel.

[desert sonnet]

Never heard of "No Code' before

[inner arrow]

Townfall looks nice.

[topaz dew]

what ps exclusive do you want to play the most?

[inner arrow]

They did some nice ‘Look at a desk with a tv and some radio’ games lol

[versed swan]

yeah watch out for spoilers, the konami intern accidentally uploaded a full english version of the stream

[halcyon stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/stray-ps5-playstation-cat-meow-gif-17486050

[topaz dew]

it was really good

[versed swan]

also, is my discord bugged or is slowmode gone?

[cerulean basin]

That is an interesting fact, but says nothing for what games could come out in the future. Nothing about Western devs that automatically can make it worse.

[desert sonnet]

I barely even saw a trailer lol

[inner arrow]

No code was disappointed last E3 that they couldn’t show their game. And now they still didn’t really show it

[topaz dew]

what is no code

[topaz dew]

is your wifi/service bad?

[desert sonnet]

I feel like they're gonna announce a Silent Hill show then a Silent Hill theme park and Silent Hill shoes lol

[tired hare]

spoilers from it

[long maple]

I play exclusively on Xbox now pretty much. and my PC is 8 years old so not gonna bother attempting that plus its too expensive to even think about an upgrade. been playing less intensive PC Game Pass games though.

[inner arrow]

Problem with Silent Hill is that the whole franchise is hard to continue. It doesn’t have an overarching story or interconnected places and stuff. The name is basically just the place where it plays. This is what most western devs and even the silent hill team itself kinda found out that they are limited by that

[cerulean basin]

This is a neat update from the latest Xbox Alpha build 😄

Discord Voice

A Discord server & voice channel browser is now available when clicking the Discord button in the Guide under Parties & chats so account-linked users can join a voice channel directly from their console.

[long maple]

Yeah been some nice updates, speaking of which I best update the console now

[lyric jetty]

That was a good match, home time now

[inner arrow]

RE has the characters and zombies that just could go anywhere and as long as the characters come back it works. Doesn’t work with Silent Hill basically

[topaz dew]

do you think microsoft will make minecraft a xbox exclusive a few generations down?

[desert sonnet]

Who's this guy? Oh Christophe Gans.

[brave junco]

God no.

[long maple]

no, its silly to do that when its a game that is better with other people

[versed swan]

no its fine but discord on android is a bit buggy

[topaz dew]

could make james or cheryl get in a planet crash and land in silent hill

[long maple]

Minecraft is everywhere. and anyone can play due to crossplay

[topaz dew]

that idea sucks

[inner arrow]

Silent Hill 1 movie was good imo

[topaz dew]

a lot of people liked it i heard

[cerulean basin]

Being able to stream directly to 3rd party Twitch services from the Guide is also neat 😄 I'll need to try that out.

[desert sonnet]

Love the music

[topaz dew]

one of the better video game adaptations

[inner arrow]

It shaked things up. But the problem was the they tried to explain too much at the end and also included pyramid head even tho it ruined the story

[long maple]

there are some updates in Alpha that the highest tier dont get, but yeah will appear in Alpha Skip next week most likely

nice to see a new captures app, and in the next build Em has said they fixed moving captures to an external drive

Em Tweeted about it earlier

[topaz dew]

do you guys say day tah or dada?

[lyric jetty]

Day ta

[inner arrow]

No. Silent Hill fans didn’t really like the first movie cause you included Pyramid Head which was basically the opposite monster of James from SH2

[topaz dew]

i heard people liked it

[inner arrow]

In general people liked it but fans didn’t

[cerulean basin]

I remember when the movie came out most Silent Hill fans still enjoyed it as a great adaptation, even if not entirely accurate

[topaz dew]

i never watched it

my back hurts

[inner arrow]

Well the major factors most fans didn’t like is pyramid head

The rest is pretty accurate besides of course Henry. But that isn’t that big of an issue

[desert sonnet]

I just zoned out during this entire movie segment. I just don't care about a movie until they show a proper trailer lol

[cerulean basin]

Honestly, it sounds like you're cherry-picking a nitpicky niche

[hexed merlin]

speaking of SH2 💀

[topaz dew]

how does sony got so much money

[desert sonnet]

Oh god.. nerchandise

[inner arrow]

Nah. Silent Hill 2 is beloved cause of the whole dynamic between James and his psychology which results into Pyramid head. Including him for the sake of having him isn’t really good. It’s basically related to james and nobody else because… reasons I can not say because nsfw

[desert sonnet]

Paul you might finally get your skateboard in this part 😂

[topaz dew]

does the small text mean it’ll be released onto other playforms

[dim spindle]

Have u seen what products Sony produces? Lol

[cerulean basin]

By selling lots of expensive award-winning AAA games

[dim spindle]

And kitchen appliances

[topaz dew]

headphones?

[long maple]

yeah it is.. noticed them when I skimmed through the full version someone posted early 😄

[inner arrow]

If microsoft doesn’t buy activision they could hundreds of Silent Hill 2s lol

[desert sonnet]

Oh my god the doggy!!!!

[hexed merlin]

Possibly, it just "says not available on other formats for 12 months" which could mean that they're thinking about porting it to xbox but it's not set in stone yet

[long maple]

did you see Deek with Headphones on during the Merch stuff ? 😄

[topaz dew]

do you think the remake will be good?

[inner arrow]

Oh my god! That dog ending statue!

[dim spindle]

Headphones, consoles, tvs, etc

[cerulean basin]

So it's a remake of Silent Hill 2 what they're announcing? Or also some new game?

[inner arrow]

Annapurna game. By no code. And Silent Hill 2 remake by bloober team

[topaz dew]

annapurna is good

[inner arrow]

So far at least. Yeah anna purna is good so I am excited for that.

[wild tulip]

Bloober team is also a good company

[hexed merlin]

Anapurna released some good stuff

[inner arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/eh-no-ehno-fifidonia-minions-gif-18960235

[wild tulip]

They actually very love silent hill themselves

The Medium was inspired by silent hill

[inner arrow]

Bloober is known to have stolen art and stuff.

[dim spindle]

Sony also owns spiderman so that's another mountain of cash to sit on

[topaz dew]

there has been 4 new games announced? ||remake, townfall, survival, and silent hill F?||

[desert sonnet]

Is this the Silent Hill battle royale that I dreamed of?

[topaz dew]

spider-man is the most profitable character in all of media

[inner arrow]

Behaviour? Makers of DBd?

[noble trout]

Citation needed.

[inner arrow]

So 4 vs 1 coop game probably

[brave junco]

Every day I ping my friend with a variation of "you are now breathing manually" and every day he slams his table in frustration.

[topaz dew]

behavior did say they were making a fps earlier this year

[desert sonnet]

Is brought to you by viewers like you. Thank you.

[inner arrow]

Jj abrahams lol

[desert sonnet]

Couldn't even show up. Lmao he just sends a text.

[brave junco]

[inner arrow]

Lol. He didn’t want to show his face

[dim spindle]

Indeed. People can't get enough SPIDERMAN

[topaz dew]

look at toy sales, movie sales, even the new spiderman game sold more than the arkham games

[inner arrow]

Okay. You got me hooked with Ascension!

[noble trout]

I don't have to look. I said, citation needed.

[desert sonnet]

I wonder if he can go on Twitter and go "yea that wasn't me. I didn't send that text."

[inner arrow]

He understands that the monster is a manifest of the characters fears

[dim spindle]

Sony also doesn't hold back the character and marvel and them make tons of movies. Unlike universal with the hulk. Letting marvel destroy the character

[noble trout]

And if you are including all media, I'd recommend looking at all media. Like the profits made from super old content out of Disney, Tolkien, Baum, and religious figures.

[desert sonnet]

At this point with all the tragedy and bonkers stuff in Silent Hill, they just need to bulldoze that town and start over.

[inner arrow]

Okay this project really got he excited ngl

[topaz dew]

he gets 1.3 billion dollars per year in 2014 according to project hollywood

[inner arrow]

Last game

[topaz dew]

only dude i know is golem

[desert sonnet]

Ooo prequel?

[inner arrow]

Feudal town silent hill?

[cerulean basin]

Huh, hadn't realized NEO: The World Ends with You was out for PC as well. I wonder how it compares to the Switch version

[noble trout]

Hello Kitty has made $80 billion, lifetime.

[inner arrow]

Was out on epic game store for a year

[noble trout]

Winnie the Pooh, $75b.

I'm going to forage now.

[desert sonnet]

Oh god.. wasn't expecting that face

[cerulean basin]

Dunno, just got an email from Steam 😅 I'll check how well it runs on Surface Pro 8

[topaz dew]

is there multiple silent hill type towns? or only one?

[inner arrow]

Same… wow that got me hooked and that music… oof

[desert sonnet]

Neoboards entertainment.. never heard of em either.

[inner arrow]

Did some RE stuff like the multiplayer games

Like Resistance? I hope you remember that lol

[topaz dew]

they made resident evil resistance

[desert sonnet]

https://tenor.com/view/homer-collar-tug-pull-anxious-gif-7812230

[untold oxide]

Anyone play fifa in here??

[inner arrow]

Tho it looks amazing and I certainly like the setting. I am not sure yet. Still think townfall and Ascension were the the highlights for me. With F being in the top 3. And then all the way on the bottom. Deeper than the earth there is the remake lol

[pine vessel]

Cursed

[topaz dew]

has a short message been announced yet?

[pine vessel]

Tony Stark does the Say So

[inner arrow]

||https://youtu.be/I_uD7gxIF2s||(Thumbnail is the picture from Indiana Jones famous melting scene that’s why I spoiled it) video of evidence of bloober team stealing stuff

Even did it with The Medium lol

[desert sonnet]

This calls for a nap.

[topaz dew]

silent hill a short message was reviewed in s. korea i wonder if they’ll announce it

[versed swan]

why would they steal something from a famous movie of all things

[inner arrow]

Cause they can

They got away with it and now work with Konami on Silent Hill. That’s that studio. So yeah

[topaz dew]

rise of ronin looks really fun

[brave junco]

I suddenly want pizza.

[upper meteor]

Hawaiian pizza

[merry palm]

I want something but idk what

[brave junco]

Pizz.

[valid coral]

Anyone play plague tale yet the new one?

[long maple]

yeah played some more of it earlier

[brave junco]

I'd rather walk on hot coals.

[upper meteor]

No

[merry palm]

Pineapple on pizza is a weird texture. Flavor is fine though.

[valid coral]

Theres a part where you have to free Sophia's boat, I tried turning the wheel and there's a bug can't do nothing

[upper meteor]

What about hot orange juice

[noble trout]

What about hot Dr. Pepper?

[valid coral]

@long maple

[inner arrow]

Plague tale gets better after chapter 4. Takes a bit of a nose dive in pacing later but ends with a bang. Can recommend it

[brave junco]

Jesus U. Christ

[upper meteor]

Hey randy

[valid coral]

I'm doing the new one there's a part in later chapter that u can't do nothing

[long maple]

best to look up google or a walkthrough to see if there is anything else you have to do. I am on Chapter 4 right now.

[noble trout]

Hiya Ickerz

[merry palm]

Hot orange juice is fine

Surprisingly

[upper meteor]

How you doing

[merry palm]

Takes the bite off and is nice

[upper meteor]

Glad you like it

[merry palm]

Hot dr pepper is ... Yk the bite? It's like all bite and no flavor anymore

[noble trout]

Made for a good plot device in Failure to Launch.

[merry palm]

All the fizz hurts you

I assume this is a movie or show

[long maple]

yeah Movie

[noble trout]

Very much a movie.

Good casting.

Hot Dr. Pepper. What could go wrong?

[dim spindle]

I'll give anyone $100 who can down a ice cold 12oz can of Sprite

[long maple]

yeah came out 2006

[noble trout]

I'll give everyone $100 for not having to drink Sprite.

[inner arrow]

Jim sterling made a video of how bloober team doesn’t deserve Silent Hill 4 months ago lol

[brave junco]

Hot coke is fine.

[brave junco]

Oh hell yeah I don't even need a reason.

[dim spindle]

Sprite is delicious it's just impossible to chug

[brave junco]

I'd do it for 1 cent.

[topaz dew]

i like sprite

[dim spindle]

Especially mcdanks sprite. That schmacks

[merry palm]

Sprite is good mixed with cranberry juice

[brave junco]

It's not impossible. You're just going to look like you just got poisoned.

[noble trout]

Excellent. More for you, then.

[dim spindle]

Nah it's impossible lol

[topaz dew]

thank you 🙏🙏

[merry palm]

Sprite zero is much much much better than regular sprite. Regular sprite is ... Too much something.

[brave junco]

Wanna bet?

[halcyon stratus]

regular sprite is aggressively bubbly

[dim spindle]

Yeah I wanna bet

[brave junco]

I like the fizzy bubbleh.

[merry palm]

And it's got a weird filmy aftertaste

Bleh

[brave junco]

Not bleh, bubbleh.

[topaz dew]

mcdonald’s doesn’t mix their sprite correctly so that’s why it tasted weird

[merry palm]

Bubbles are fine. I think it's the corn syrup, idk

[topaz dew]

they also use a weird ratio of syrup to carbonation

[dim spindle]

All this carbonation and zero milligrams of caffeine smh

[merry palm]

Caffeine doesn't do anything nice for me. Makes me sleepy

[topaz dew]

caffiene doesn’t do anything unless i take a lot

[dim spindle]

I got a pretty good caffeine tolerance. It's at the point where I'm not jumpy or jittery is just a background buzz

[brave junco]

The only good part about coffee is the foam.

[dim spindle]

🧐

[topaz dew]

the after taste of coffee is so bad

[brave junco]

The taste is fine if you bloat it with milk and sugar, but it's not at all healthy and it doesn't do anything on me.

[dim spindle]

Coffee is so delicious. Replace all water fountains in schools with iced coffee. Everyone finna be studying

[brave junco]

Lmao.

[topaz dew]

i love vanilla iced coffee

[halcyon stratus]

everyone "finna" have headaches and irritability issues, not to mention excessive hallpass usage for the bathrooms

[merry palm]

Lol

[dim spindle]

Vibe killer

[brave junco]

Always.

[long maple]

headaches yes exactly lol

[topaz dew]

ima pray for the lactose intolerant kids

[merry palm]

You can have iced coffee without dairy

It's literally coffee , with ice

Whatever else you add is preferences

[topaz dew]

you think kids will like dark?

[dim spindle]

Then maybe those ones shouldn't drink the coffee then???

[merry palm]

Ik lots of kids... Lol
They have all sorts of different preferences

[noble trout]

In other news Butterfinger and Milky Way turn 100 next year.

[long maple]

I dont drink tea or coffee, pretty much only fizzy drink I have been drinking so much is Cola thats it. sometimes I like flavoured water or apple/pineapple/orange juice

[halcyon stratus]

Well the directive was to "replace all water fountains", so you took away the water option for them.
Your rules, not mine.

[brave junco]

The galaxy or the candy bar?

[merry palm]

Mmmm yummy

[brave junco]

Is it necessary for you to ruin every joke?

[halcyon stratus]

Only the bad ones 🙂

[long maple]

Tac the fun stealer lol

[night rapids]

you just asked if the milky way galaxy was turning 100 though

[merry palm]

Steals the fun and buys shoes with it

[long maple]

chocolate is nearly 100 ?

[halcyon stratus]

I bought 2 new pairs of shoes

[brave junco]

Uh uh, that was the joke.

[halcyon stratus]

https://www.vans.com/en-us/categories/vans-x-stranger-things-c5590?f=Gender,Men&f=Product Type,Footwear

[brave junco]

A bad joke, but I didn't ruin it.

[night rapids]

i think chocolate is older than that, but some candy bars are that old and it's wild

[noble trout]

Cadbury chocolate started in the early 1800's, 1824.

[merry palm]

Nice.

[long maple]

I am pretty much solely eating Kitkats these days lol

[noble trout]

Daily Milk having started in 1905.

[brave junco]

Ever try a Clark bar?

[dim spindle]

Cuz water doesn't exist anywhere else. Only water fountains produce water guys

[noble trout]

Clark is from 1917.

[long maple]

never heard of them

[brave junco]

Oh wow.

[merry palm]

If you are at school.. that's where you get drinks of water from.

[noble trout]

https://www.msn.com/en-us/foodanddrink/foodnews/the-24-oldest-candy-bars-still-available/ss-AA139v4j

[merry palm]

I feel like it's a bit silly to have to make that obvious 🤣

[halcyon stratus]

I guess every time you were thirsty you could go in to the bathroom and drink from teh dirty sinks?

[long maple]

I vaguely remember at school, metal jugs of water we had to pour into cups ourselves.

[halcyon stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/mihoyo-genshin-genshin-impact-npc-male-gif-22629325

[desert sonnet]

I would've loved that.

[cerulean basin]

@inner arrow Huh, seems like Neo: The World Ends With You has some incredibly low specs requirements. The recommended ones are an old i3 processor and a GTX 950. Definitely should run well on my tablet. This made me quite happy. If I wasn't about to buy Gotham Knights and start Persona 5 I'd be jumping on the offer right away.

[long maple]

made from Aluminium lol

[desert sonnet]

lol still would like it.

[sudden bough]

[brave junco]

Back in Kharkov, I remember my father saying there wasn't any way to get water at school.

[inner arrow]

I have it but haven’t started it cause too much games in my backlog and MW2 tomorrow lol

[brave junco]

Tap was extremely dirty.

[night rapids]

I thought MW2 was the 28th

[dim spindle]

U guys never heard of water bottles?

[desert sonnet]

Pretty sure it's like that in a lot of countries

[brave junco]

That's what they mainly used.

[sudden bough]

[inner arrow]

Preorder get to play the campaign a week early

[valid coral]

@long maple just replayed the whole level it's really buggy in the rain took me 4 tries

[long maple]

[valid coral]

Finally got it

[dim spindle]

My brain hurts

[sudden bough]

Hi

[halcyon stratus]

This box of Pocky lies... "2.5 servings per container"?
lolwut no

[long maple]

has the guide logos changed for anyone else. seems the "people" logo is different or I am imagining things

[merry palm]

Box is one serving smh

[long maple]

pocky ah they are called Mikado here

[brave junco]

Oh dude those are great.

I love the strawberry ones.

[sudden bough]

Mmm they look good

[harsh axle]

Anyone know why when I receive a message on Xbox it opens up the Xbox app automatically on my PC? It's annoying

[desert sonnet]

Pocky are good.

...or is it, Pocky is good?

[worn shale]

Pocky is very good

[merry palm]

It's Pocky was good

Bc it was eaten

[worn shale]

very true. a box of Pocky doesnt last long in this apartment

[desert sonnet]

Do you fire them?

[median halo]

Wut

[brave junco]

YouTube put recommendations I can't get rid of in my search bar.

Why.

Are you trying to get me to leave the platform?

[tired hare]

Hi

[desert sonnet]

Im gonna say that yes, you fire them.

[tired hare]

anyway to use my usb hewadset on my xbox ?

[sharp briar]

Howdy

[dim spindle]

Plug it into the other USB port🤯🤯

[sharp briar]

Is the neck only headset good?

[tired hare]

didnt work dont u think i tried 🤓

[long maple]

not all USB headsets work its a limited selection

[hexed merlin]

Congratulations, your new USB headset is absolutely useless. Xbox doesn't support "non certified" USB headsets.

[tired hare]

not new just wanted to see if i could use the one on my pc for xbox also

[hexed merlin]

I raged a fair bit when I found out that I can't properly use my USB headset on the new Series S after switching from Playstation too.

ooh well

[tired hare]

can i use wireless beats

[hexed merlin]

guess it was just me projecting then 💀

[hexed merlin]

nope, only verified headsets xbox makes some monies from

or just regular 3.5mm jack

[long maple]

the box literally says. " designed for Xbox" there is a whole collection of them. this has also moved onto Monitors and other accessories too

[young solar]

what's everyone's thoughts on Skyrim?

[halcyon stratus]

Oblivion was more fun to me

[long maple]

I would tell you, but then I took an arrow to the knee.. thats about the only knowledge I have. never played the games lol

[worn shale]

i barely played Skyrim, but it seemed okay from what i played

[halcyon stratus]

Morrowwind, Skyrim, and oblivion all play differently. Pick the one you like, very much personal preference

[worn shale]

ive been wanting to boot up daggerfall

[desert sonnet]

I liked Skyrim very much.

[worn shale]

i wont touch Arena cause that games too dated, but Daggerfall looks good

[desert sonnet]

Oblivion was fun too. I just wish the caves had a bit more variety.

Fallout New Vegas dropped 12 years ago today‼️🔥

Twitter · Oct 19, 2022, 10:46 PM

[worn shale]

Arena and Daggerfall are free, which is cool. getting to experience the early years of Elder Scrolls without paying anything

tho id probably buy HD remasters of both if bethesda cared enough about those games to make that happen

[halcyon stratus]

Yea, if they patched in some updated terrain generators I’d go@back and play it some more

[worn shale]

yall ever play Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines? thats an rpg ive been wanting to get back into

[rich aurora]

Cat posting

[tired hare]

yo i just bought nitro and got the free xbox code thingy

dm me and i'll give u the code if u want coz i don't have xbox

[rich aurora]

You can also use it on PC

[tired hare]

ion want it tho so i'm giving it out

[brave junco]

Yeah. It's a good game, just takes a while to get a full lobby.

[worn shale]

thats not Bloodlines. thats Bloodhunt

Bloodlines is a single player RPG from 2004

[dark sparrow]

That makes me feel old

[dark sparrow]

Sleepy

[desert sonnet]

I remember when New Vegas came out. I hated it lol

But over time, I grew to really love it and its writing and dialogue. The characters and lore behind everything was amazing.

[tired hare]

hallo

[rich aurora]

More like using a flash all over their face

[misty pebble]

It's always great to have an rpg with no unkillable characters!

[dark sparrow]

Children in New Vegas are essential characters

[misty pebble]

Sad. I blame the esrb.

[dark sparrow]

I think there is a few cases where characters are unkillable for story reasons

[desert sonnet]

I think that's fine. The main fun for me was just building a character that looked cool and had cool gear. Killing everyone was just something to do at the end before shelving the game for good lol

[half hazel]

i killed everyone in diamond city in fo4
empty place rn

[dark sparrow]

Tbh, i think the only big character that's unkillable is Yes Man, since he's the faction that you're unable to get mad.

[half hazel]

with the vader suit and lightsaber for added style

[misty pebble]

I just like to be able to decide the outcome of some quests like that. That's why I loved Arx Fatalis! For all its flaws being able to kill the king when you first meet him is awesome!

[worn shale]

oh bethesda went back and removed the ability to kill children in their ports of Fallout 1 and 2. even tho those games had a mechanic where NPCs would hate you or want you dead if you killed a child.

its fine tho, you can modd that mechanic back in

[misty pebble]

That's lame! At least the community patches fix it.

[half hazel]

theres a mod for fo3 where if you kill children people of cities like megaton will hate you and raiders will fear you

[worn shale]

thats cool. always good to see people incorporating FO1 and 2 mechanics into later games

[versed swan]

feel free to drop your code in #xbox-game-pass

[wild tulip]

In Skyrim you can hit a kid and town will be mildly angry at you, but you hit a chicken and you get 5 star wanted on your back from the whole town😁

[half hazel]

i wonder how starfield will treat essentials

[brave junco]

Oh.

[half hazel]

the kill kids mod in fo4 just treats them like adults tho

[worn shale]

lame

[half hazel]

no cool effects like towns hating you or raiders fearing you

same with skyrim

[worn shale]

the permanent debuff being the consequence for killing children is what made it so horrible to do it. not giving you any sort of punishment for doing it is weird

[tired hare]

Well there mods for that 🤣

[worn shale]

what hes talking about IS a mod lol

[tired hare]

My brain just shut off there

[half hazel]

the fo4 mod just makes the kids behave like an adult
they square up and start throwing hands if you attack

[worn shale]

thats kinda hilarious

[half hazel]

indeed it is

[worn shale]

"whatd you say about Fortnite, PUNK?!"

[half hazel]

in skyrim theyre strapped with knives like the average british guy

[worn shale]

or like the average person in my city, at least the downtown area

[half hazel]

these kids stay strapped

[frosty estuary]

Hello

Need for Speed™ Heat Deluxe Edition Upgrade Content

[half hazel]

they already advanced it for starfield

[ashen yarrow]

Described red dead 2

[worn shale]

aww its for xbox:(

[ashen yarrow]

Everything in that game gets you a $50 bounty

[worn shale]

oh i have the deluxe edition anyway, right

[half hazel]

rdo its about 5 cents for wiping the whole town

[long maple]

EA been great with these Deluxe upgrades recently. had like 2 or 3 drop through

[desert sonnet]

I still remember one hilarious bug was that in Skyrim you'd be wanted for murder if you killed an npc with no person around. The developers were stumped and thought there was noone around to report. How could the world know murder happened? Then they realized it was the chicken nearby that would see it.

[worn shale]

LOOOOOOL

[desert sonnet]

So the chicken witnessed it and somehow that would mean it told the guards what happened. I love that story

[ashen yarrow]

In rdr2 you kill someone out of self defense and looting them is a crime

I always end up trying to loot bodies because money is hard to get and easy to lose

[worn shale]

why is rdr2 like this

[half hazel]

so whos telling the guard we're killing the chickens

[foggy pecan]

Any good pc game pass games homies

[foggy pecan]

This dude is just saying the same game over and over when I ask for game recs

[tired crescent]

Also forge is on the horizon, so I can’t wait to see that

[hollow musk]

Before it goes, you should check out 'Nongunz: Doppelganger Edition'

It's an indie 2d side scrolling rougelite with dark textures, it's pretty good imo

[merry palm]

Ok. If you don't like the games people are suggesting, Google game recs

No one here is your personal shopper.

[foggy pecan]

Thanks g downloading now

[hollow musk]

No problem

[foggy pecan]

Just trying to ask people who actually play games, repeating the same thing was completely unnecessary.

I actually play games

[tired crescent]

I play games too

[foggy pecan]

Apparently one game 💀

If you’re gonna play the WOA trilogy, might as well play it in order, the graphics are updated an all too.

Wolfenstein the new order looks great on ultra

[upper meteor]

Cow when it sees grass

[tired crescent]

It’s a cat that’s secretly a cow

It's me, I'm the cow.

woah

Yeah. Big moo.

[tired crescent]

Kylie was a cow all along!

XD

[green laurel]

What's going on I leave for a bit and kylies a cow

[halcyon stratus]

Cows eat grass not glass

[upper meteor]

Or metal

[tired crescent]

Or tree sap

[mellow roost]

Speaking of cows, there used to be this thing (I don't know if Chicago still does it) where they just put painted statues of cows everywhere. One time I saw one stuck to the side of a building.

It's called Cows on Parade.

[green laurel]

Well it won't moove from there

[merry palm]

Do you think she wouldn't eat grass??

[mellow roost]

Can confirm, I have tried eating grass.

[tired crescent]

How was it?

[mellow roost]

Well it was exactly how you'd expect it to be.

[merry palm]

Tastes like grass

[tired crescent]

nice

[foggy pecan]

So much shovelware on game pass bruh

[tired crescent]

Those games might not be shovelware to other people

[foggy pecan]

Shovelware just means games that are there for the quantity rather than quality or usefulness.

[long maple]

its a curated list, I have had tons of fun with most games on there that I have never heard of before

[rich aurora]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EH8LqkCLhMk&ab_channel=GalaxyTrail

[merry palm]

Just because you don't like a game , doesn't mean other people don't like it.

[rich aurora]

🤨

[merry palm]

It's wild.. people have different preferences lol

[long maple]

I like more Indies than the AAA rubbish that comes out every year, something different

[open flume]

WHAT

Different preferences!?

almost as if its the worst thing to walk into a server and trash other people's recommendations and enjoyments!?

[merry palm]

I'm sorry, but I'm never going to like Forza.

[snow canyon]

👋 @astral falcon @tired hare(? assuming this is the correct scratch) .. Been a while 😄

[astral falcon]

wrong scratch lol

[snow canyon]

doh. Is he in here?

[foggy pecan]

The games are there because they want the appeal of having a lot of games, not because a trillion dollar company cares about delivering quality experiences for a lower overall cost.

shovelware is like data design games

[rich aurora]

Thats not shovelware bruh

[foggy pecan]

“Shovelware is a term for individual video games or software bundles known more for the quantity of what is included than for the quality or usefulness.”

[rich aurora]

Shovelware are games that are designed specifically to be cheap and cost less to produce

[astral falcon]

I thought scratch was in here but I guess not lol

[rich aurora]

None of the gamepass games qualify with that definition

[long maple]

I think he used to be ages ago. been so many who have come and gone over the years

[merry palm]

Again... Just because you don't find value in a game.. doesn't mean other people might not like them

[open flume]

such a hard concept to grasp

[astral falcon]

how have you been @snow canyon ?

[open flume]

my 12 year old has a hard time with this. i imagine other children do, too

[merry palm]

They seem to be struggling yeah

[snow canyon]

I just want someone to make a spiritual successor to Gladius (OG Xbox). I don't care if it's "shovelware", it was a good title

[rich aurora]

No developer that had put their games on gamepass, intendeed to make a bad game just to sell

therefore not shovelware

[foggy pecan]

Good job defending a trillion dollar corporation rather than understanding that they have flaws! Phil Spencer will be sure to personally thank you!!

[long maple]

games are games at the end of the day, its an escape from real life I just want to play something so Game Pass its great for that

[tired crescent]

[merry palm]

You seem to be missing the point here

[snow canyon]

Not too bad, although sickly atm 😷 With PAX still being too precarious, it's been so long since I've been able to keep up with anyone 😦
What's going on in your world?

[rich aurora]

🤨

[halcyon stratus]

You are not participating in this conversation in a trustworthy manner

[open flume]

bad faith actor spotted!

[foggy pecan]

It was a joke 💀

[rich aurora]

Tell me with your logic what games in gamepass are shovelware then

[halcyon stratus]

Every year or so people rattle their swords for a sequel, yea 😦

[merry palm]

Your jokes need work

[rich aurora]

Because is something else that microsoft added a lot of games in the service, that they added a bunch of games for adding them, doesnt make that the games themselves are designed as shovelware

[snow canyon]

The Sims [trollface.jpg]

[rich aurora]

like really no indie developer would make a bad game on purpose

[astral falcon]

I hear that. I skipped Pax for the first time this year. Not much going on with me. Same old. gaming and such. Scratch has been doing some great stuff on YT

[halcyon stratus]

If you look at the full microsoft store, there is a lot of garbage in it. The 'universal app' stuff combined with an incredibly bad store filtering system does result in 53 different 'Tip Calculators!' being visible on xbox lol

[foggy pecan]

The service sells on a small amount of appealing AAA games, and on their quantity which is presumed by buyers to have a high amount of quality games, which is not Microsoft’s aim.

[merry palm]

??????

[mellow roost]

There's no shovelware on Game Pass.

[halcyon stratus]

Every one of those words is a word.

[merry palm]

Lmao

[snow canyon]

I'll have to crash one of his Twitch streams again one of these days.

[astral falcon]

do ittttttt

he'd love that

[rich aurora]

That they dont provide enough AAA games doesnt make the games that arent AAA games shovelware

[merry palm]

I play almost none of the aaa games, and I have game pass for the indies lol

[open flume]

$250 billion in studio acquisitions and funding was definitely to just stuff a number count lol

[rich aurora]

Same

[foggy pecan]

Shovelware does not mean bad. Shovelware means being there primarily for quantity purposes.

[rich aurora]

Shovelware is at the development phase, that they added a bunch of indie games isnt shovelware

[mellow roost]

@ Free

Your usage of "shovelware" is wildly incorrect.

So would a large bookstore have more shovelware, as it were, than a small bookstore?

[halcyon stratus]

"the primary purpose is quantity over quality" pretty much implies "low quality"

[snow canyon]

Anyone else in this server I might know? 🤔

[halcyon stratus]

what?

[long maple]

I think its great that smaller devs can put their game in Game Pass and its played by tons of people just like " Lets build a Zoo " which I had great fun with. and in an Interview he said that more will be coming. think the next one is called Soccer Story

[rich aurora]

a game is shovelware on itself, when was developed, if the game developer didnt cared about the quality of their games makes it shovelware

[merry palm]

Let's build a zoo was really cute

[lime sequoia]

you suck at parking so fun

[tired crescent]

TinyKin is awesome

[foggy pecan]

I never even said “quantity over quality”.

[rich aurora]

that they added a bunch of indies doesnt make the game itself shovelware

[pastel verge]

I want an xbox 360 so bad.

[merry palm]

Tinykin has all my love. I need more.

[lime sequoia]

i dont play it that much anymore but it was very wacky, and rather silly thats what made it fun

[snow canyon]

Does that require solid teammates, or could you get into a random game and still have a good time?

[tired crescent]

Milo is such a cute protagonist

[upper meteor]

Halo farming simulator needs you

[rich aurora]

Name 6 games on the service that are shovelware then

[open flume]

solo silly wacky driving game

but like... not about the driving

about parking

[tired crescent]

What a brilliant idea for a game

[halcyon stratus]

Sure

[snow canyon]

Oh, solo? The video made it seem like it was specifically multiplayer

[merry palm]

I tried farming simulator once , I think, and it make me motion sick

[long maple]

you suck at parking has a massive single player mode. but also a multiplayer portion where you are against other playing fighting for parking spaces

[lime sequoia]

no teammates required really, you just need to get the most parking spots before anyone else

[astral falcon]

not sure, but I bet people would remember the old mygamercard days! except maybe the young'ins lol

Make sure to pay Microsoft for your 6th and 7th gen games, which is often quite literally impossible….

[astral falcon]

mygamercard what what all the cool people had in their forum signatures

[snow canyon]

Can I turn the topic back to Gladius? Does anyone have any idea what I'm talking about? It was published by LucasArts, wildly enough.

[astral falcon]

when forums were still cool lol

[tired crescent]

Donut I got from Universal a few moths back

[lime sequoia]

found this at walmart... 2 big competitors next to each other

[rich aurora]

No but i will check it out

[foggy pecan]

I love piracy 😍😍😍

[long maple]

yeah I remember them a long time ago. always used to look through. think there was a CoD related one back on 360

[snow canyon]

Forums were so great. It was like going to a different country.

That's the one. So fun. Especially since it allowed for a second player.

[foggy pecan]

I love my GameCube and ps2 with custom firmware 😈😈

[halcyon stratus]

No, I switched it to this kitty illustration yesterday, and before that it was my kitty's nose print for months.

Sometimes discord gets dumb and just randomly doesn't load server-specific pfps though

[long maple]

never owned an OG Xbox. had all the others though.

[rich aurora]

TRPG? sounds fun

[foggy pecan]

Bro that emote 💀

[snow canyon]

I have an unopened Hyperkin "Duke" that I never got around to using.

[halcyon stratus]

my one response was about the extent of it, and was more than I've talked about gladius 2 in at least 4 years lol

[astral falcon]

Those were the days

[rich aurora]

Never talked in forums aside gamefaqs

[lime sequoia]

i only use fandom forums thats it

[snow canyon]

[halcyon stratus]

If you work at Microsoft you can send the mods verification and they'll give you the employee badge

[rich aurora]

[tired crescent]

Has anyone ever heard of the Dakota Pad duke controller?

[astral falcon]

Penguin took out the trash so we can move on

[light oyster]

Yes.

[tired crescent]

Apparently it was a prototype controller for the original Xbox

[rich aurora]

I never owned an xbox

[halcyon stratus]

yea there are tons and tons of prototype controllers made

Idk but that xbox has their appeal for me

[open flume]

i can think of more but can THEY if they askin about profanities?

[merry palm]

I don't think I can think of 100

[tired hare]

Damm it now dragon ball has something I have sign up to 🙃 at least it free

[snow canyon]

Compound curses don't count.

[tired hare]

What?

[snow canyon]

Regarding 100 curse words. Not sure I could think of 100 unique ones that didn't include others.

But maybe I'm just an underachiever.

[tired hare]

I'm to go get a pizza pocket

[marble compass]

If compound ones don't count, what about how different ways 1 word is said, can have different meanings. Does that add to the 100?

GamerchiX is a blast from the past.

Whatever happened to it?

[astral falcon]

Gamerchix eventually just retired. But man what a cool group it was.

[snow canyon]

Yeah, a number of reasons. Ahead of its time in a lot of ways (as sad as that is to say)

[marble compass]

It was the group that got me to not be afraid of chatting in the forums.

[astral falcon]

Big same

[snow canyon]

Trixie, Diva, and Kitty would be thrilled to hear that.

I probably wouldn’t be chatting here if it wasn’t for that group
