    7 Days to Die

    That reminds me of one of my favorite bases, which was built on bedrock where I'd dig all the way, make a 3x3 hole, and the bottom would open up. Zombies would fall and either die, or be close to death. You'd make an arena and just pick them off from the upper deck.

    7 Days to Die

    Keep in mind you can remove mods at will. Like, if you get an axe mod, you only need the one for the entire playthrough (unless this got changed recently). I'm not sure if it's still available, but in steam you also used to be able to change the version to experimental builds and go all the way...

    7 Days to Die

    Yeah, at a certain point, the game had skill up on use, and zombies were basically dumb and base building was at its peak because you could experiment with all sorts of fun shit. The devs didn't like that and had some kind of gameplay experience in mind which was the complete opposite of 90% of...

    It was all driven by the tariffs. Of which, we still don't know how they'll impact any companies. That data won't likely come out until Q3 (figure tariffs aren't really hitting until maybe now-ish, and then lag another quarter for the data). It's why the market dropping 20% made absolutely fuck...

    Uh, so much for what I said, I guess?

    Home buying thread

    On the flip side, this seems like a horrible time to be selling. Between interest rates that won't go down and sky high prices, houses just aren't selling. Just last night we were walking the dogs and I mentioned to my wife, after passing another house that just put up a sale sign, that they...

    I wouldn't recommend Undead Legacy until you've played the base game...a lot. That shit is brutal. Incredibly fun, but brutal.

    The Bear

    Man, I don't think we ever made it past the 2nd episode of this last season. Edit: Went back and read the last page and apparently I've brought up how we couldn't get past the first two episode 3 times now. My bad, folks.

    That shouldn't have been a surprise from February though?

    It's because if you're at the point where gold is currency again, well, everything has collapsed enough that rule of law is now gone and anyone with more guns than you can physically take your gold by force. So at that point, what's the point of holding gold and not guns?

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Proceeds to post weeb shit. Jerking off to cartoon women with big tits is niche, sorry to break it to you.

    So hard to tell anymore. Could say it's bad economic news, so market goes down. Alternatively, bad economy means Fed more likely to reduce rates, so market goes up.

    Dune Awakening

    I just remember trying to fit in implants and it was a giant puzzle of swapping shit and getting buffs, but if you figured it out, you'd become a god. It also had the one class, fixer I think, which made Spirit of Wolf look like a joke as you just zoomed around the map. Plus that matrix-style...

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    I guess not. I went and looked at the JRPG category in Steam, and the only ones that I've played were Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, and those were a good 25 years ago. That kind of weeb shit just doesn't appeal to me, and I would 100% call it niche.

    Dune Awakening

    That's a strange take, because Funcom games are fucking fun as shit. The problem with them is always the jank they start with, that sometimes takes years to fix. But Anarchy Online? Secret World? Conan? They were all fantastic games and etched into my mind as some of the best I've ever played...
