Their support responded with something I had said AAAAges ago on Twitter (and Reddit, actually) calling out their unfair bans and support during the era where they just had bots banning you for being reported for "abusive chat" despite accounts not even having ACCESS to chat from being new, or having the chat muted from not having any endorsement ratings yet, which removes the ability to use any sort of chat feature in the game. They also demanded my government I.D through direct support and wanted to verify where I lived.

I've been rediscovering my love for Half-Life 2, and trying to work up the strength to finish Half-Life: Alyx.

Too lazy for VR.

I want a VR equivalent of laying in bed with two Joycons. Total motionlessness.

[qwertykins76]

Ain't there is a version of Alyx now that's completely VR-free?

[Gold Jinjo]

There is! I was looking at that thinking I might check it out, it looks completely normal.

Half-Life 2 is amazing, my brother and I take turns playing it each year. This year it was his turn to play while I watched (we play nearly every video game like this - a legacy from a lifetime of sharing everything as twins)
Infact we just finished playing it and the two episodes about a week ago.

It's impressive how they've managed to make the world so immersive, I enjoy the subtle lore and storytelling of the game - there's so much you have to piece together yourself from hints and off-the-cuff remarks or even just by looking at the scenery such as the lowered sea levels.
The Combine Advisors are probably my favourite fictional alien race, they have a distinct, almost regal appearance about them despite their grotesqueness, apart from them I think my favourite character is probably Dr Magnusson

[Gold Jinjo]

I love that you guys do that

It's crazy how immersive that game still is. I still get that sense like everything is chasing me, a whole oppressive state is coming down on me, and the music is banging.

Yeah it's great playing games with my brothers until it comes to the Mario Party games and then it's like we're all kids again with the squabbling and tantrums, haha

I actually didn't play Half-Life 2 for the first time until around 2009 and I was already very interested in dystopia/police states from reading Nineteen Eighty-Four for school so it was great to explore an oppressive totalitarian world in HL2

two teams into sonic heroes. i like this game, kind of, in a nostalgic way. it's really bad. nothing about it works as well as the adventures. it is insane how hard a drop in quality it is. but it's also really funny and would probably be a perfect game to play with friends, with the mod i am using that makes it 1/3 shorter so you can actually finish it

DOOM (2016), A Hat in Time & COD Warzone.

Bought Diablo 4. Played for several hours until all I could think about was how fun Diablo 3 was.

Reinstalled Diablo 3.

That's somewhat disappointing. I never thought I'd live long enough to see "video game" become a subgenre.

Picked up Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Haven't had a good chance to play it much but so far the combat is like Paper Mario which has one of my favorite turn-based combat systems! The world is also very mysterious and interesting so far.
