  • I personally think smaller scale 2000s collect-a-thon games like Ty the Tasmanian Tiger hold up pretty well. Never knew that specific series existed until maybe a year or two ago and I gotta say, it’s pretty good and runs real smooth on Dolphin on my Steam Deck ( and coincidentally better than the legitimate PS2 copy I have ).

    I personally also think the PS2 Star Wars Battlefront games still hold up well enough. Love the lack of monetization and lack of online play because I hate competitive play as a more casual player.

    Those games are definitely pass my recommendation checklist due to the amount/quality of content, and/or replayability level.

    Another couple games that pass that checklist would be Final Fantasy X ( I never finished it, but had been enjoying it all the way ) and Sly Cooper 1 ( due to the time trials for each non-boss level adding a good amount of challenge and length ). Both on PS2.



  • Had to do a quick conversion search to make sure roughly how much that would be, and I could have a day like the fairly recent day I bought a pawn shop acoustic guitar, pack of picks, and a guitar stand maybe around 10 times.

    I could also, probably, head over to a CD shop I really like and buy probably close to 100 CDs ( probably much less than 90 because tax, but that’s still a lot ).

    I could go to an electronics shop and get their opinion and help on upgrading my desktop motherboard, alongside upgrading to a used, few years older ( probably 2020-21 because I don’t do much that would kill it ) model graphics card if I could find a good one somewhere like eBay.

    I could try to collect a physical copy of every single non-arcade, launched in America Sonic game on console. Console not included for some of them because they’re too expensive or I don’t care about them for the case of anything past xbox360 or ps3. Though, I imagine the Master System titles would be pretty expensive, so IDK how that would go.

    Either that, or I would love to cheap out and just pay some people who are willing to do a copyright infringement by making some Tails plushies based on his SatAM/Adventures cartoon design/personality. Would probably be a lot cheaper and just as cool. Fulfills my hobby of having a ton of plushies/stuffed animals and be Sonic related, so bonus points to me.

    I could wait for the next Steam sale and get tons of games to add to my backlog but never actually get around to. Even with my somewhat picky nature, I’m fairly certain I’d find tons of games to purchase.

    I could probably get even better headphones than my already pretty good quality beats to really up my music listening. Pair that with a pretty good audio playback device and I’d be in heaven… or accidentally make myself deaf and wanna die.

    I could get the remaining manga from the Bakuman series I like and, depending on price and volumes, probably get the remainders of Soul Eater ( I think I’ve only got maybe volumes 1-2 ).

    I could buy a metric ton of snacks and foods from a nearby import store and an Asian market.

    Hell, I could probably take a couple lessons for that guitar I bought so that way I can learn the proper way to play.

    Edit:

    I could also expand my dice collection and playing card collection. I would love to have a ton of decks of cards. Especially some ones where the cards are different shapes, like these little leaf shaped cards I currently own.





  • Only a backup for my phone. I’ve got an older model that I had to use during last summer and into the fall after going swimming with my, then relatively new, $200USD samsung. I’m absolutely grateful that my SIL gave me it, even if it is a probably around 10 years old model. Insecure but damn did it allow me to do what I needed.

    Otherwise, not really. If my shit goes, I’m not that prepared. I should be, but I’m not.


  • For android, IronFox ( from their repository that I added to F-Droid ) or I started recently using the DuckDuckGo ( also from F-Droid ) for those rare websites that don’t work on IronFox ( like justtherecipe or just earlier justbeamit ).

    On my laptop running Linux, I have the default Firefox, an ungoogled chromium for websites that don’t work on FF, and TOR.

    As for my desktop running win10 ( and definitely Linux by the end of the summer, I hope ), I have FF, Librewolf, Tor, and just recently got Mullvad VPN’s browser. Probably shouldn’t have that many browsers as once, but I’m an idiot.



  • If you’re like me and either don’t have enough space or don’t like moving a normal computer mouse around, a good trackball mouse is probably gonna be real good.

    I originally got a cheap enough ergonomic wireless Logitech one from walmart for my then new laptop I got for college. Then, just maybe a month or two ago, I got an ergonomic one from Elecom to replace my standard mouse because it was having some click problems and scroll wheel issues. The only problem I have with either is how the ball on the Elecom one doesn’t always move super smooth and I can’t be as precise as I can with the Logitech one.






  • Technically I don’t think there’s a tutorial level per say as much as there is a tutorial set of levels, but Baba Is You.

    The game starts off with only the controls on how to move and teaches you about how you can change the rules of the level to beat it if it isn’t possible normally, without explaining anything. Just from you exploring and testing different things. The only other time you’ll ever see any other form of level hint is maybe in the level names or if you end up in a position where you have to undo or restart the level from breaking the " [ object ] is you " rule in some way.
