I worked at a restaurant part-time for some extra “fun” money before COVID. Once we went to take-out only during the pandemic, everything turned toxic and I was not happy with how the management were handling everything. They told us “be happy because you’re basically making $20 an hour with how well everyone is tipping” but the morale was absolutely abysmal.

I was letting these teenagers know that they were getting poor treatment and management came to me and basically said “they look up to you, you can’t tell them those things. They are all going to be mad”, so I quit. They were mad at me for telling these teenagers that they don’t have to devote their life to this restaurant that began making record profits during one of the worst and uncertain times for many of these kids families.

Basically what I’m getting at is, if they do ask the workers, they don’t want to hear how they actually feel.

@skele_tron any update on progress? I’m excited to hear your thoughts, haha.

Oh my god, Q Claw! You brought back many memories. Although I liked Nightfire more, there was something special about Agent Under Fire.

I cannot recommend this game enough. It definitely not perfect–I had numerous complaints about its audio mixing–but the gameplay is so good. It does the System Shock/Bioshock formula extremely well. If you’re going in for your first time, push yourself to experiment. The game is very good at letting you do things you maybe normally wouldn’t think of.

Gameplay spoilers!

For example: There are times where you are locked out of a room in need of a keycard or passcode that you need to come across. Sometimes this can be mitigated by a simple swing of your wrench can break the glass; many people will likely figure that out. Sometimes, that locked room has glass, but it has bars preventing you from entering after breaking the glass. This may lead those who use the typhon powers to transform into a small object and move between the bars to get inside. Now, what do you do if you don’t have the keycard/passcode, or have psionic powers? Well, there’s a “weapon” that you can use called the Huntress Boltcaster. It’s a toy gun that shoots foam crossbow bolts. You can use this to shoot the button on the inside of the door to open it. Incredible.

People have been saying that for years and yet Nintendo is performing quite well. The average consumer does not care about resolutions and framerates. If a Switch 2 does come out in the next couple of years, I would expect it to perform similarly to a PS4 Pro/Xbox One X with 1080p and 60fps as @ampersandrew had already mentioned.

I’m actually not sure if this fully counts as a roguelike (because I’m not really super familiar with the genre), but I started Returnal on PC yesterday and it already seems to be a pretty darn good game only after 30 minutes of play time. I am looking forward to putting more time into it!

Best story of the series. Please update when you finish!

Enjoy! There’s definitely issues with it, but the core gameplay and combat is just too good.

Dragon’s Dogma is so good! I loved the game. The story is pretty much nothing until the latter fourth of the game, but I find it pretty compelling and interesting. Stick with it if you enjoy the gameplay enough (not sure about that bug though); the payoff for playing through to the end and then scouring Bitterblack Isle is well worth pushing through the nearly non-existant story in the middle.

I started playing Shovel Knight a couple days ago and I have really enjoyed my time with it so far! I’m not much of a 2D side-scroller/platformer kind of gamer, but this has been a lot of fun. I’m really looking forward to the other playable characters.

Other than that, I still hop onto Death Stranding occasionally. Being in the end game makes it really easy to hop in and make a few deliveries and then hop out.

Thank you! I’m pretty new to all of this and I was just following what everyone else was doing haha

!thescarydoor is a Futurama subreddit that I am shamelessly self-promoting. I hope that’s okay.

Edit: I don’t know how to link it properly, I guess.
