  1. Favorite RPG and why?

    I think I sometimes underestimate how much I enjoy that game. Haha even hearing some of the music from it can get me excited. Absolutely loved it when I played it back on the original Playstation and it changed what my favourite game genre was essentially by itself. Ah nice, I don't think I...

  2. Evolution?

    It isn't so much about the prevalence of the traits in question, but rather the notion that evolution itself isn't a progressive process. It isn't about the species themselves improving and becoming more evolved, as evolution isn't an optimization process. It is about those that are able to...

  3. What are you doing right now?

    Browsing Off Topix on my break at work while eating lollies and occasionally answering questions from my sister about the electoral process in New Zealand since we have a general election on Saturday.

  4. Evolution?

    General consensus seems to be that the Neanderthals died out as a result of competition, from sociocultural advantages possessed by homo sapiens. There is no such thing as lesser evolved animals. Evolution isn't a progressive process, to speak of more or less evolved animals doesn't make sense...

  5. Do you have a lot of friends or just a few?

    I can have issues with social anxiety and depression so it isn't always easy for me to recognize how many friends I have. Although I have improved immensely on that front these past 4 years. There are a fair number of people that get along with me at work and I am genuinely happy when I see...

  6. Losing Sight of Your Personal Goals and Identity?

    I am not entirely sure how to respond to this, on one hand my initial reaction was that my personal goals are so central to who I am as a person. My identity has changed and will continue to change throughout my life as I come across new perspectives and experiences. My core principles and...

  7. Last Game Played

    I have gone back to playing Fallout 4, making slow progress. Will look at trying some of the DLC stuff when I am ready. My character is pretty squishy though so doesn't take much more than a gentle breeze to kill him. :LOL::LOL:

  8. Favorite RPG and why?

    I was definitely enjoying what I was playing and will go back to it at some point. 😁😁

  9. Favorite RPG and why?

    Yes! Especially early 2000s Bioware. One day I will even finish Jade Empire. Have to start again though as I have no idea what happened to my save file. 😬😬 Skyrim isn't my favourite Elder Scrolls, but I still enjoyed it a lot and spent a lot of time playing it. Didn't enjoy Fallout 4 as much...

  10. Last Game/Match Watched?

    Warriors vs Broncos NRL preliminary final last night. First preliminary final the Warriors have played in since 2011. This season has been an amazing improvement on their previous 11 seasons and and an especially marked improvement over last year. To go from 2nd to last to one game short of...

  11. Favorite RPG and why?

    RPGs would be my favourite genre so there have been quite a few which I have really loved. I really loved the sense of exploration in Morrowind, even going back to it last year to play it a bit I still love the world. Around the same time I also really loved Knights of the Old Republic. I really...

  12. Last Game Played

    Yeah, I totally and completely agree with you. I love it when games can have that impact on me. What you say makes sense too, as it might be what is stopping me from properly connecting with Legend of Dragoon at the moment. That is definitely the case with me and dramas. It can be a while before...

  13. Last Game Played

    I finished it last week and there were definitely highs during the gameplay. Turns out I was more attached to the characters than I realized as some of the moments in the finishes hit me in the feels. I chose my preferred ending first and there were some sad moments. My most recent game is now...

  14. Playstation Plus Price Hike

    Yeah, it does seem to be more a case of them pushing their profit margins. It did result in their stock prices jumping last week. One analyst also predicted that this could see them bring in just under $400 million in additional profit. Although at the same time we have been seeing subscription...

  15. Last Game Played

    I definitely wouldn't recommend playing the PS4 version. The PS5 version is a lot better. Yep, I am going for platinum in it. The general consensus on the game does seem to be quite positive. I would buy it on special rather than full price though if you can. The PS4 version also comes with a...

  16. Playstation Plus Price Hike

    Yeah, I remember hearing about people who had stacked their subs to extremely high levels. Even at the time, which was prior to the introduction of the tiers system it was going to work out cheaper. Now even more so.

  17. Playstation Plus Price Hike

    It has been announced this week that there is going to be a significant increase in the cost of annual subscriptions to all the tiers of Playstation Plus by over 30%. I was quite excited initially about what would be offered with the premium service, as I was hoping they would go a lot further...

  18. Last Game Played

    What platform would you be thinking of getting it on? I am playing it on PS5, which is also impacting how I am playing the game. I think the fact I am going for trophies is making my experience worse in some ways. Both in terms of doing more of the repetitive boring elements of the open world...

  19. Last Game Played

    I have been playing Cyberpunk 2077. It unfortunately still has bugs and issues which are holding it back from being a more enthralling experience. I am enjoying it, but those issues make it hard at times. Just two nights ago I had a corrupted save file issue and lost over an hour of gameplay. 😬😬

  20. Favourite PlayStation 1 title?

    There were a few titles I really loved on the original PlayStation. For my favourite I would probably go with Medievil. A game I still love a lot.
