  • I’m so glad I’m not the only person that gets the same “theme park” vibes from MMOs. It really takes me out of it when someone is doing the same quest as me but is a few steps ahead so they trigger a unique animation or dialogue from the quest giver, and then I experience the same animation or dialogue a few minutes later. Kinda like waiting in line for a ride but you can hear or see some parts of the ride as you progress through the line.

    Phogs is a cute co-op game where you a control a double ended dog (Think Cat-Dog but it’s a double dog) to solve puzzles through themed worlds (food, sleep, and playing, a puppy’s favorite activities). It’s only 2 player though so I’m not sure if that’s what you’re looking for.






  • My vote is 10 years as an arbitrary number, or 2 or more console generations as the graphics technology will have (hopefully) have advanced enough to make an impactful difference in graphics quality.

    Control schemes have largely not changed since the PS3/360 era, so there would be no point in remaking a game solely for that, at least not if it’s from around that era. For anyone that has played the Rare Replay, Rare Studio’s entire collection of games, Jetforce Gemini (a N64 game) had an option in the control settings to make the controls modernized.

    All in all, a game should be remade/remastered if it is going to be significantly different to its original form. A fresh coat of paint does not a remake, uh make. For the best example of proper remakes in my opinion, see the Demon Souls remake or the Halo 2 Anniversary edition.











  • I got one for ya. I was changing the oil in my fiancée’s car and wanted to know how to clear the “maintenance required” light so I looked it up online. First result was of course someone asking the same question to some sort of car forum. The top response? “That is something the dealership can do for you”.

    Motherfucker if I wanted the dealership to do it for me, I would have had them change my oil in the first God damn place! Jesus fuck that response just ruined my day. Utterly useless waste of kilobytes. Luckily the response right under his had the answer I was looking for. This happened like a month ago and I’m still pissed off about it.
