Hell yes you can upgrade a room if you find a terminal

things i did not expect to see in a parking lot in 2026:

Misinterpreted the hint about the sanctum keys, stumbled on one I was sure I'd already gotten, got confused, turns out the one I thought was behind the room of 8 treasure, that's not it, so now I only have one left to get and I know exactly where it is?

...I've finally finished enough Resident Evil games to watch Noah Gervais' 7.5 hour Resident Evil video (the first one)

Almost convinced this will not help me with any puzzle and it's just flavor/lore text Pretty clearly a love letter/marriage proposal. Elopement even, seems like.

I had to go on Twitter to confirm this was real because Ship Awesome Games In A Weekend having a hand with six fingers was so on the nose I was about to pass out

This shit just writes itself at this point. Just the name "Epic AI MegaJam" is a joke that best describes what is going on with these companies.

It's just, the little joys, the dreams, they keep getting ripped away. All the little things that make it worth getting up in the morning just get chewed up and consumed.

I wasn't ready for Drew Scanlon's new look I gotta be honest. It WORKS, he really pulls it off, but I wasn't ready.

I’m missing one fucking fish for the last health upgrade in RE Village and for some god damn reason you can’t go back to previous areas where I KNOW I missed one That and the red room in the house that went in flames (an herb I missed) will haunt me forever I guess

(I know why, it’s because the Reservoir is set during daylight and the sun is setting now and they didn’t bother to make a dusk version of the Reservoir just for backtracking, stupid continuity polish)

What also kills me is there are more than enough animals in the game to get every update But not ENOUGH more than enough to make up for the ones you can miss forever

House Beneviento > Reservoir > Castle Dimitrescu > Stronghold Good variety in this game, almost feels like each chapter was designed by a different team with wildly different pillars. But also uneven quality, and the 4th one is just “run through castle and shoot 87 werewolves” Time for the climax

Also the sun was setting before I entered the stronghold and it still is when I come out? I was literally in there longer than a real sunset lasts, c’mon. Although I do enjoy it when games take place over a single day and you can tell.

Something about RE8’s Dualsense feedback makes it feel like my controller is rattling with something loose in it, and it’s done it with both my controllers so I know it’s the game, and good job that IS scary

Yeah Ethan let’s stay and chat with Moreau right after you got one on him and grabbed the flask without any major complications, you fucking idiot

Craziest thing about YCSE is the theater was PACKED Like natural consequence of there being only 5 showings in the whole city today sure, but this still drew a way bigger crowd than I expected

3-axes chart of how much of a gullible dipshit you are where the axes are how much you think you’re the main character, how much you think movies are real life, how much you think morality precedes action

The local alderman or something: "Well, looks like the White Wolf has done some criminal act, ah well, time to chop off your head" Geralt: "Listen you stupid ass, I'm just in town looking for my girlfriend and I have nothing to" *some monster starts tearing through town*

"Okay Witcher looks like we need you and you get to live another day" (this literally happens in every village Geralt visits in every incarnation of the franchise)

Beside the point but why is she dressed like Lt. Saavik?

Mike Rogers’ wife is handing out $10 gas cards in Michigan while asking people to vote for her husband. Republicans made gas unaffordable. Now they’re offering $10 to keep them in power. #BlueWaveIn20Days

It’s an incredible bit for Carrie episode 7 to suddenly add four BSG alumni to the cast (to the two already in there), three of them in bit parts in the same scene That had to be on purpose at that point

It's about time for me to figure out if I can pick up my save from a couple years ago halfway through Witcher 2 and figure out how this game plays all over again

This game possibly has the worst menus of all time, haha wow. 2011 western RPGs had NOT figured that shit out.

Took all my breaks today to figure out 1) how to launch game 2) how game is played 3) what I was doing and now I got my bearings, I think I can get to some witching tomorrow

We had a place like this near my old job. Peruvian restaurant, run by one guy. 8 bucks got you the day's soup, plate, soft drink and dessert (a muffin). Everyone gave him a flat 10 because that was such a ridiculously good deal. Place got a shoutout in one or two Ubisoft games from what I recall.

grabbing lunch from this place that has went sort of viral locally. she only cooks one dish a day, only sells in-person at 11:30 until she sells out. it’s funny how the lack of options now feels like an amenity. like yes, girl, don’t make me make any decisions.

Whoops, the game doesn't like a CPU having more than 4 cores. Thankfully this is a known issue with a known workaround. PC gaming, y'all.
