My primary avenue for art is in writing. I enjoy it quite a bit, and I like to think I can do it well.

I still feel as though I have not earned the right to call it art. I always refer to it as “my writing” or the like. It’s not, and will never be to me, truly artistic.

But that’s fine. I don’t need to prove that my writing is art to enjoy doing it. I don’t need to prove it to myself and others that it’s worth doing. The fact that I do write, and that I enjoy it, is all that I need.

Exactly my impression as well.

Man those Pokemon ones too were next level. Wild to think Nintendo would do something like that anymore

I couldn’t play RCT2 without the ORTC2 mod that lets you put garbage bins and benches everywhere in a single click

Ridge Racer Type 4. Beautiful controls, amazing soundtrack, just an amazing game

They’re running a beta test to the general public - only the thing they’re testing is a 2 ton ball of metal and explosive material regularly traveling at 45 mph (70 kmh). They even have the gall to charge for the ability to beta test it. I really hope this gets regulated at some point, otherwise this is just the beginning

Geez, I thought they were never gonna get charged. Way too easy to just get away with these things in the crypto space

What a complete clown. Does he really not grok that no one on Reddit trusts him?

I said that they were gonna do this as a joke to a friend in Baltimore, because we all thought this would be so ridiculous. Leave it to reality to be the bigger comedian.

Seriously though, you can see the smoke. If you put a mask on, you can taste and feel that there’s less shit going into your lungs. How do they come up with this

Many A True Nerd, Mikeburnfire… does Jerma count? I’ll add him

Yeah, this is the one where I most feel like an out of touch boomer because I know people love the newer games. Honestly, like you say, the shift to 3d was such a massive turn off to me, it just doesn’t look right

I use an iPod and physical media for most of my music

You’re joking but currently a discord I’m in has a cult over a specific Garfield Minus Garfield comic, a cult that got genuinely rowdy when the comic stopped being posted.

All I’m saying, Garfield is probably an elder god

If anything, emulating Nintendo games has furthered innovation. The PC port for Mario 64, any Pokemon romhack, etc, all can only exist because of emulation

r/HobbyDrama or a more hobby oriented history community. Also r/AskHistorians or similar, although that one will take more effort and setting up than simply making the community. I personally use Reddit to see a couple memes and then read both of the subs I mentioned. I like seeing people who are passionate about a thing talk about the history of that thing.

Fallout New Vegas for sure, although many of the issues were fixed by the devs over the lifespan of the game. Mods are pretty much vital to run that game properly, however. Many issues with the engine and many core bugs have been fixed by the community, and it’s honestly something where once you play with them fixed, it’s hard to go back
