PixlBit

Honestly just list whatever you like most. I was somewhat joking with Snee.

I like classic lit, YA, and I want to read a mystery.

Too close to home ... lol. 

Allegories. Thinly veiled political opinions narrated as hero journeys. Dark shit. 

I think I've heard their stuff. Definitely heard OF them. 

Yeah, we're not gonna ... just don't add me on Facebook. lol It's not 24/7 with me (maybe it is and I'm not self-aware) and I post other stuff, but ... ah well, Pixlbit is a safe space, I guess.  I'm just yanking your chain. That's a politically incorrect phrase! Ok, now I will stop. 

One of my favorite songs by Bad Religion is partly about the Rodney King trials. I think if I wanted to play a song that would offend a diverse group of people all at once, "Don't Pray On Me," the song I'm referring to, would be it. So, y'know ... trigger warning before you play that song. Couldn't help it.

I think I want to start a summer reading list, since I'll be free of emails and textbooks for a bit. 

So are Paramore pop now? I like the sound, but at the same time it's kind of like when Gwen Stefani left No Doubt; is there any hope for a female-led rock band aside from the 70s/80s ones to stay with rock? Like I said, I like it, and I liked Stefani's solo stuff too. But I preferred the rock stuff. 

And I like polls, but make the next one about PS2 XBOX and GCN a fuck, marry, kill poll. 

I had the N64 when I was 7 through 10 and none of those PSX games you listed were relevant to me at the time. Hell, MGS is the only one I've really played all that much since.

For me, it's N64 by a landslide, because of all the N64 games I actually remember playing as a small child. 

Hope it all works out with job and roommate.

You're mighty welcome. We disagree on a lot, but I think you're always fair and even handed about , which is a nice contrast to Patrick's semi-trolling (not that I don't dig that too; he and I actually have similar personalities I think).

Speaking of, that's probably why I fail to follow  through with him, since I almost always avoid Twitter and am a bona fide Facebook addict. Lol

And I don't disagree, I just thought "well he used the word paranoid..." lol I get the choice though.

In Bloodborne, I pay attention to my surroundings and try to travel certain paths where I know enemies come in a certain pattern, but I still wind up being ambushed and dying and can't get past the first part. It may be my impatience (I can't stand waiting in stealth games anymore since i only have so much time to play), but I feel like the enemies are indeed more powerful and numerous than in other games I've played. I mean I can easily stroll through everything except Wiley castle in Mega Man 2, even on hard ( can't say the same for 3, which I've always had more trouble with than 1 or 2), but ... Maybe it's my 3D spatial awareness that's the problem. I tend to get blindsided pretty easily in FPS.

Regardless, I'm not saying games shouldn't be hard or that it's not my fault when i die; but the community around those games often says they are indeed too hard for casuals and act like that's a dirty word. Obviously there are people on this site who don't act like that and love these games, but I find the community particularly toxic elsewhere.

And none of what I said was aimed at you. I haven't played Breath of the Wild, but I agree the combat looks less than great from what I've seen of it. If you think certain elements of games should be more like Dark Souls, maybe they do. I can't comment on that. What I can and am commenting on is the notion from certain FromSoftware fans I've seen that every game needs to mimic Dark Souls somehow. Sure, I have only played ... What I could get through of Bloodborne and Dark Souls III, but I've played enough to say with confidence I don't want every game to be like those.
