For the most part I don't mod games. There are only a small amount of games I do, and that's only when there's some form of support from the developers.

the actual rule #5 is "always get big tity mods"

BaconShelf · August 25, 2016, 03:49:27 PM

What about if I use mods to increase the difficulty?

Fun is a human construct that doesn't actually exist and only causes suffering because someone else in the world is not having fun. This is why humans should go vegan and kill themselves. This way nobody will be suffering because someone else is having fun and they're not because nobody will exist.

i'm not saying things couldn't be better, but when it comes to playing video games, i'll take the platform that actually has games that i enjoy playing rather than a platform that doesn't have any games at all

yes, even though i've warmed up to the RTS genre a bit, i still don't like them nearly enough to just throw away every single beautiful game i've ever played that can only be legally accessed through console, not PC

also
>implying valve is not a shining example of corporate greed in the game industry

Luciana · August 25, 2016, 08:42:59 PM

Doesn't the PC have games too though? I'm sure they have a bigger library than consoles do.

Do you mean exclusives or just games you already own?

none that i think are worth playing, or aren't dwarfed by what's available on console

i know you're being facetious with me but i'm humoring you anyway

Quote

well, both

exclusives are a given, but if i already own a game on console, there's no real reason i'd get it on PC, right

especially if the PC edition is a port--that should probably be rule #6 -- never play ports
