Yeh it was the audiobooks that I tries out, I gave it a good 10 hours or so, so I think I gave it a fair go but fuck me the singing was like nails on a chalk board for me.

I started skipping through the songs after the first couple but then as time went on I realised just how often it was going to happen and I couldn't stand it.

I thought I was getting into an epic fantasy adventure and instead I got a wanky musical about walking!

Agreed.

The books are even worse, every other page is a fucking song or extended poem.

Most over rated shit I never finished.

MSN messenger was the fucking shit back in the day (bah)

Oh man i remember visiting japan solo when i was 18 and using the hotel computer in the lobby to research places to go and see each day, how to get to places like akihabara and where to go once there for the best shit.

Printing out a couple of pages of info for the next day ahead. Those were the days. Travel and tourism with maps in your pockets these days really ruins the sense of discovery and adventure that you got before then, I try to avoid using any of that shit but my gf is always pulling out her phone and ruining it xD

I played the original Skate via a 360 emulator on the steam deck and it ran perfectly fine so I don't think you even really need a mad PC setup. It did push the deck to its Max though!

For sure, apologies if you thought that was aimed at you :)

I know it doesn't but the original commenter that you were quoting obviously doesn't understand how Lemmy works and is equating the action of the devs and their moderation to the whole of Lemmy, that's why I used the word implies.

I'm not saying your point is wrong more pointing out that it is a bad thing that the lack of knowledge on how Lemmy works and operates between instances means that people who don't know presume that it applies for the entirety of Lemmy.

About an hour in so far and straight fire throughout!

I recently did my first full play through that actually stuck (I started maybe 5 times over the years and got bored prior to this play through) using the mod pack Viva New Vegas.

I chose that because it seemed like it offered a vanilla + experience and I have to say it was great throughout. I didn't experience any crashes, it included things like the Fallout 4 style of seeing what is in containers without opening them and generally it was a good time.

Maybe have a look and see if it fits your needs :)

But that implies that that is the case for Lemmy as a whole, which is not true.

Stone cold classic.

"Event organisers" put on a punk band and then are surprised when they do something controversial? Dumb, spineless cunts.

So glad my tax money is funding the filth that are wasting time "investigating" shit like this and arresting people that protest a genocide and support Palestine Action. Fuck the police and fuck this shitty country.

Fucking wide boy. He is gonna try that shit with someone who wants to fight and get taught a lesson hopefully.

That's so cool! I didn't know that they could have white feathers!

Blackbirds are my favourite and I am so happy to have a pair that visit my garden daily this year!

Right? OP literally brought this on themselves......

They are one and the same. Highway challenge was the PAL name for the xtreme racer series and this is a new game in the series basically.

So you'll probably like it!

Thanks for this post, there are some good racing games out there for sure, however I can't recommend JDM at all.

I played the demo early last year and have been eagerly awaiting the release this year. They pushed back the release date from March this year to improve things further which I thought was a good sign but ultimately once it has landed it is just not enjoyable. The car and modification selections are great as are the visuals but the handling model is just fucking shite. I tried playing it for around 5 hours and it is just not enjoyable to actually play.

Another one worth checking out is the new Tokyo Xtreme Racer game. This is more a highway racer that is still in EA, the gameplay loop is OK although it can get a bit boring for me personally and it definitely needs some improvements in the handling and physics as well as the balance but it is still in active development and I will keep an eye on it.

Also good is Nightrunners. This is also a highway racing game but made by one dev. It is stylised to look like a late 90s vhs and the modification options are fucking amazing. Again this is still in development but is definitely worth a look if you like JDM cars!

I believe that was a "demo" called the Scorpion prologue that came a few months after the first demo that appeared on steam last year sometime and is no longer available.

Ah, good to know, thanks. I'll have to look into it a little bit more.
