PC broke, I can either get the seller to refund me or replace it.

I'm little frustrated right now, but thankfully not outright angry.

damn, was it a prebuilt computer? memory corruption is really rare. i'd probably get a refund and shop elsewhere

 

[Carna]

It was prebulit

Is it me or is there not much to talk about in the gaming side? This is the most boring new gen I can remember. No new awesome trailers or game announcements. There's nothing coming out soon that give me that new feeling Oblivion, Bioshock, Mass Effect and Assassins Creed gave me back in the 360/PS3 days. I'm freaking playing Kingdom Come Deliverance again.

It might be why people are losing their minds in off-topic and politics. We need Microsoft to finally buy Sega or for Sony to buy Take Two or something. The meltdowns and takes will keep us busy for weeks. Better yet give us new fucking games that are exclusives to the new consoles instead all that cross gen bullshit.

With the current state of the game industry, some others just feel more like playing and sticking to old games.

I think most people here are really aggravated that a highly looked forward to game (the rumored Silent Hill game) wasn't revealed.

That's exactly what I'm doing! After Kingdom Come I might replay Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. I'm really looking forward to Disco Elysium to come to consoles. It's going to have full voice acting and everything. I can't wait.

When is that version of disco coming out? It's on sale on pc pretty regularly and it's a free upgrade I think.

Unfortunately right now we don't have any game that just screams "Next Gen". Pretty weak start

Damn! What is going on here lately.

Yup. Very few significant sounding games coming up anytime soon. No significant news other than MS doubling gold and changing back immediately a couple weeks ago. Can't even find a PS5 still. On a personal note, I'm essentially playing the same things I was a year ago, just newer versions or updated maps. But on the bright side, I bet E3 (or whatever videos replace it) will come at us like a spider monkey hopped up on Mountain Dew. In addition to more details on what is to come as next gen hits its stride, it might line up with consoles finally being on shelves. The big players will be fighting hard to get / keep people in their eco-systems.

I've always wondered by Packer dunks on anime.

Anime fans wear their hearts on their sleeves and I find it adorable.

I was given a free copy on pc and played it a little and was amazed . But then I heard about the console
Version coming so I’ve waited and waited as I want to chill on my
Sofa playing it - according to wiki next month.

I’m going skiing for the first time ever tomorrow (at age 36). I’ll let you know if I bust my ass.

If you sign up for a lesson you'll have way more fun. They usually have bundles so that it doesn't cost that much more than the lift ticket for an intro lesson.

My girlfriend's sister set it all up and made the reservations... not sure if she set up lessons or not. I'm just along for the ride pretty much. I'll see if I can get a lesson in when I'm there.

 

[Grand Theft Scratchy]

Whatever the reasons, it has been a little depressing seeing so many regular members leaving/banned over the past couple of months. @Tesseract will be missed.

Although I'm not religious, I've been warming to the idea of observing Lent this year (first time in my life). While we always tend to want to satisfy all our desires with the minimum amount of delay, I think a little self-denial for a small part of the year can help us appreciate the things we have more. I had pretty much already decided to give up meat and sugar for that period, but I think I'll add general non-essential internet usage too, so no more GAF for me until Easter. I'll still be playing games and working out though, so I'll see everyone back in the Fitness/Backlog community threads in the spring.

Take care everyone and have fun.

I think you're right. Sometimes it's good to take a break and focus on other things.

Take it easy, Kazza!

I bet E3 (or whatever videos replace it) will come at us like a spider monkey hopped up on Mountain Dew.

Hey, it's the Summer Games Fest now. SGF?

I'm looking forward to all of the new announcements too. I'm expecting Dragon Quest XII and possibly XCOM 3 to be announced in June/July.

i went snowboarding a few times when i was a kid, i fell on my ass a lot, but they say snowboarding is harder than skiing

Rest easy Souffers . Keep safe.

 

[Redneckerz]

Absolutely toasted today.

Rest easy Souffers . Keep safe.

Something was removed that was not nice.

Some of the accounts closed though have no reason just accounts closure. Seem to me that some of the accounts were identified possibly as problem accounts or accounts that don't line up with the new direction of GAF like what happen to Liberty4all and they just closing them.

They had the decency of PMing the staff up front rather than making a grand last stand to an anonymous audience.

Mmmm, if true then thats good. At-least they decided it was time for them to move on.

I didn't see what Souffers posted but if it went against the rules I can't complain. Rest easy Souffers.

 

[Redneckerz]

Mmmm, if true then thats good. Atleast they decided it was time for them to move on.

That's pretty much the only plausible reason.

A moderator had to remove it, so...

 

[TheContact]

didn't expect stouffers to go out like that, seemed like a chill dude (whatever it was it can't be good)

Are these the "sleeper agents" Reset was talking about?

Shame to see some members seem to enjoy this

We all hoping the storm clouds clear and so we can all go back to our carefree shitposting.

Not all but some are , it’s like talking behind someone’s back and not getting a chance to defend yourself.
Not cool in my opinion

Remember the good times. Move on. Be glad we still have Richard Packer with us. All is not lost yet!

Yeah your a fairly new member and haven’t built years of conversation and a rapport that maybe others have and remind me again why we should be glad about having the Richard Packard dude ?

 

[Majmun]

Sometimes it’s good to get rid of the bad blood.

I’m sure this place can be intimidating for new people. I think I came back to this forum after not having posted on any forum for maybe two years. Good thing I don’t really care about internet people, otherwise I would’ve never come back here. It can be very toxic and hostile, from my experience.
It’s nice to have an open playground, but not when there’s basically one type of crowd posting.

I’ve been a member on GAF for 15 years now, and I have very fond memories of this place. Don’t want this place to get ruined too much.

Ahhh don't worry DESTROYA , you still have me . Even though I am newish.

TrainedRage is that supposed to be a GOTTEM?

I've been here for around 11 years. My stench is all over the hallways.

No just pointing out that it’s a thing.

post history didn't show anything worthy so it was probably DM communications which was either an amicable split or not. either way, we won't know unless they communicate it to a member here

 

[Maiden Voyage]

I work a few blocks away lol. Wynwood is pretty cool. I recommend the rooftop bar/restaurant Astra, specially at night. You can perfectly see downtown Miami and all the big towers light up. It's gorgeous.

Went to Astra--Not a fan. The food was pretty bland/boring and the service was abysmal. Also doesn't help that I'm not in my 20s

 

[Sidney Prescott]

I will have been here a month in two days. Jesus, time sure does fly. Technically it has been longer if you count my lurking for months as a Guest.

Glad I got over my social anxiety and just signed up.

Sorry to hear that brother. My future career as a tourist guide has crashed and burned lol. I hope you're still enjoying Miami.
