Now that I've finished DOOM and DOOM II and DOOM 64 and Legacy of Rust, I'm more convinced than ever that difficulty options are accessibility. These games can be brutally difficult, but they get the blood pumping even on Easy — without gating any content. And they did it in 1993!

I just constructed my LEGO Game Boy. My favorite little detail is they included a battery for the Zelda cart that isn't in the Mario one. (Because you can't save your game in Mario.)

I think what drives me away from most FPSes is they are designed with quicksave in mind. You're supposed to save after each encounter.
You might say "well just don't do that" but then you're stuck replaying entire maps because of a gotcha trap the dev included because they thought you'd quicksave.

DOOM 64 was pretty cool. I had it as a kid, though I didn't remember much about it. It's a neat change of pace, although the levels get quite backtrack-y.
I like how you can find the hell laser and then upgrade it with artifacts from the secret levels, the first of which I remembered how to reach!

My Steam Replay stats are always meaningless because I often have an idle game running while I'm working on stuff, so I inevitably end up with 36% of my total playtime watching spinning circles or whatever.
Tabletop Simulator remains my most consistent game. (That's what I use to run D&D.)

I hope Capcom only accepts robot master designs from kids. I remember back in the day Nintendo Power published a bunch of unused designs for Mega Man 6. They were all crayon drawings and they were awesome.
Actually, just make Mega Man 12 in crayon, please and thank you.

Just completed DOOM II properly for the first time. We used to blitz it with cheat codes back in the day, but I've never sat down and gone through it for real until now.
Solid sequel. Higher highs, lower lows. Has the same sort of stretchy-weirdness quality that Portal 2 has, come to think.

Hi Bluesky! I'm in a grumpy mood tonight, and I'm about to make it y'all's problem. Here's ten reasons I dislike "Rule of Cool" at my D&D table!

We all have that moment where we have a blast playing the game everyone else already played 20 or 30 years ago.
For me, tonight, that's DOOM. I'm the last human being to play DOOM.
I just shoved 50 rockets up the cyberdemon's hey-hey, and now it's time for bed.

After all those years of development, mis-development, and re-development, it looks like they pretty much decided that Metroid Prime 4 should just be more of what Metroid Prime 3 was. And I didn't like that game much.
Oh well.

So does every high-level DOOM challenge map just boil down to carving out a safe place to sit and wait while all the monsters kill each other?

I'm playing DOOM seriously for the first time. (I know, I know. I'm a bad 90s kid.) So far my main conclusion is that secrets in this game are impossible to find.
If anyone needs me, I'll be scraping and grunting against every wall I see for the rest of my life, thanks.

Fighter might be my favorite class in 5e. I played a champion fighter from L1 to L20 and he was awesome. His god forbade the use of bladed weapons, so he rocked a +1 staff with the Sentinel and Polearm Master feats. His name was Large Tom. Later I made a bugbear version of him as an NPC!

The one book I really, really wanted for 5e, but never got, was an Arms & Equipment Guide. That was one of my favorite splats for 2e. It was filled with great descriptions and artwork of non-magical weapons and equipment, including the amazing Gnomish Workman's Leather.

My next D&D campaign is going to require more work to get out of the gate than any I've run so far. So I'm developing it alongside my current D&D campaign. That means I'm unreasonably excited for two campaigns simultaneously, and my weird little heart can't take it.

Making fun of ragebait articles means you are engaging with ragebait articles, which is what authors of ragebait articles want.
You don't win against ragebait by going to war with it, or by mocking it, or even by debunking it. You win by ignoring it and choosing to put joy into the world instead.
