Shitpost that reads "Damn right I like The Ooze". The letters of The Ooze are then arranged to stand for "These", "hormones", "estrogen", "oestrogen", "oestrogen" again, "zumenon (estrogen)", "estrogen". Images show The Ooze from the game's title screen, trays of HRT pills, and the molecular structure of oestradiol. In the corner is a small box for The Ooze overlaid with "I also like the game".

Heavy Weapons Hackerman exploring Umbilical of System Shock 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster I've played and finished two BioShock titles, but missed out on the originals. Today I'd like to explore System Shock 2 for the first time, with a wonderful opportunity provided by Nightdive's remaste...

I suspect I might be getting closer to the end of the game, with a couple of proficiencies already maxed out. Give me the GEP gun.

Chiitan has a dream.
I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past.
I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination.
Until then, let's all support each other🀍

There's still a long way to go, as PCSX2 still lacks accuracy, which results in broken mechanics and broken visuals.

Ace Combat series that John loves, for example, even on nightly have multiple-decade long bugs.

The dev team was also really proud of the zombie double grab too, you can tell that they were expecting the player to have a good timeβ„’.

A small victory! Chat Control has been tabled for now, but it can [and likely will] be brought up for vote again in December

In the meantime, EU citizens will need to continue pressuring their respective govts to oppose chat control

However, do so knowing that pressure WORKS.

Game's intro sequence of Regina getting an e-mail, with a busy blue-green military operating system, with "YOU HAVE MAIL" pop-up in red in the middle of the screen. In-game this is accompanied with a voice that reads the notification aloud.

I've tried more of Wreckfest 2, the game was updated to include 2 new cars, 1 track, and a few existing track variations.

The new Switchback car is solid, while Popper is a glass cannon, while being fast, nobody uses it online, as one bump into it spins it out.

If you haven't seen my Resident Evil CODE: Veronica X in-depth walkthrough, then please do!

I've spent a month making sure it's complete and having more people know about its existence would be wonderful!

Panel 1: Shen is standing in the middle of a city street, with green and blue hues from a park in the background, happily saying "Man, sometimes I wish I lived in some kind of fantasy RPG world."

Panel 2: We switch perspectives so Shen is in profile, as he gestures his hand forward and says "But then I think: Nah, my current life is fine as is."

Panel 3: Shen puts his hand down and the previous text bubble disappears, revealing a white truck about to come out of a narrow alley.

Panel 4: The truck reverses back into the alley, only its headlights now visible in the darkness.

How much progress do you keep on NG+?

I am also amazed at your pace, as I've spent 35 hours on it so far and have just defeated the first boss that you face after having Aegiomon->Aegiochusmon evolution.

With impressive progress yesterday, I went through two areas and am more okay with using auto-battle for trivial fights.
