What is a game that you know is bad but really enjoy(ed)?

Reply in thread

It’s a funny case where it was pretty widely panned by diehard fans of the previous games, but it was extremely popular with basically everyone else. So there was a very vocal minority who shat on the game right after it released. But it hit a broad enough audience that the new/casual players overwhelmed the diehard fans.

Bioshock Infinite is basically the Fallout 4 of Bioshock games. If you played Fallout 4 first, you’d probably think it’s a great Fallout game. The gameplay is decent, you have roleplay choices for the story, there is lots of world building, etc… But if New Vegas is already your favorite game, you probably hated FO4 for not being enough Fallout. It doesn’t mean people enjoying FO4 are wrong. It just means the game didn’t deliver what existing fans were hoping for.

What was your experience with organized crime like?

Motorcycle Club. It’s the “friendly” name for a biker gang. MCs swear up and down that they’re not gangs, because anti-gang laws allow authorities to take all kinds of extra gang busting measures against them that normally wouldn’t be allowed. It’s the biker gang equivalent of “we’re not a pyramid scheme, it’s multi-level marketing!”

What was your most profound psychedelic experience?

The best analogy I’ve seen is that shrooms is like a road trip. You’re gonna be on it for a while, but you can stop and take breaks to enjoy the scenery while you travel.

Acid is like taking a flight. You’ll get there, but you basically just buckle up and wait for the ride to be over. You can wander around the cabin a little, but you’re basically just along for the ride.

…DMT is like being ratchet-strapped to the nose cone of a rocket with a loose tail fin. You’re going somewhere fast, but your destination is at the mercy of the gods.

Has anyone managed to make DIY desk chair?

It’s because the default wheels are made for rolling on office carpet. The super tight weave with zero pad underneath (usually using carpet tiles that can be easily replaced in the event of stains), which is the go-to for corporate settings. It sucks to roll on anything besides that, because the wheels aren’t designed for it.

Post game titles, users name the game they want in the comments. You PM the code, then respond in the comments with some sort of “PM sent” response so other users can see it was already claimed. It avoids the bots automatically claiming them, but is a lot more work on your end.

Could somebody share a working Arr stack in docker with me?

Ah yeah, that’s because it will use the folder to store extra files as well, like subtitles, metadata, poster art, etc… Just dumping every media file into a single “Movies” library isn’t great, because you’ll have a ton of overlapping files. Separating them into their own folders allows you to store those extra files alongside the media.
