I love games like this. I replay Firewatch probably once a year. Walking simulator is such a dismissive genre name, but these games tend to be short and emotionally rich. What Remains of Edith Finch is one of my other favorites.
I wish there were 1000 more to play. Yes, I enjoy sinking hundreds of hours into Satisfactory or Dark Souls, but sometimes I want to feel things and that is what these games deliver.
This forced me to look up the lore on Dark Souls mimics. Apparently they are former members of a lost clan of gods exiled for the sin of avarice.
So, it’s not impossible that a greedy princess is one of them.
If full body transplants become possible, the most obvious way forward is growing bodies in vats. When you hit 30 or 40, you start up a new body using your own DNA and swap over at age 50 or 60.
It sold for $970 in 1993! Only sold 10,000 units. Really curious what these games were.
I used to invert x and y. But at some point I realized that all modern games seem to support non-inverted, but only some support inverted on both axes, so I just learned to play non-inverted to save myself the hassle.
I play video games while exercising. Switch controllers in either hand while walking on a treadmill works really well.
I haven’t been depressed in a while, but I found extreme cardio to be a really good mood lifter, especially when playing a fun game.
I would also recommend avoiding triggers. News is mental poison. I have no idea what is happening in the world and I am substantially happier as a result.
There are a lot of Linux distros. Capitulation to age verification is a good way to know that a distro is compromised generally. Now I need to figure out how not to use systemd.
