Holy shit, by bringing this site to my attention I think you may have ruined my life, but fuck it. I'm going in.

Very cool question!!

-The Long Dark: I have hundreds of hours in this game across various platforms (maybe even a thousand-plus, all together?) and with the different settings to play with to change the difficulty in really interesting ways, I think I could easily sink another thousand. I'll leave the DLC behind, though, thanks.

-Red Dead Redemption 2: My favorite game of all time, even just as a cowboy-themed hunting and poker sim. If Baldur's Gate 3 and the stupid Guarma chapter didn't exist, I'd say it would be a slamdunk for best game of all time, period. I'm not autistic, but if I had a special interest, this would be it; it literally inspired my son's name.

-Elden Ring: In five years, maybe I could just figure out how to solo Malenia without cheesing my build, much less the final boss of the DLC :')

Nier is an interesting choice. After the first (complete) playthrough, I have never felt the need to revisit—except to make my husband play it.

I'm not saying it doesn't make sense monetarily, I'm saying it leads to an altered perception by people who don't think too hard about it in regards to how other regions live during winter

Yeah, where we are you can't really start looking forward to the weather until at least mid-October

They're prob one of those people who refuses to get a good coat. Classic Southerner behavior, tbh. We hardly ever have a true need for good winter clothes down here, so most people don't know how to layer properly to stay warm, so they think people living in colder climates are just freezing all the time. Because of barely having any inclimate winter weather, too, we don't invest in much infrastructure to keep our streets clear of ice/snow, so the roads are always terrible after snow storms. People generally won't shovel their walkways, either (even people who usually carefully tend their yards in other seasons!)

This leads to most people having a skewed perception of winter around here lmao

But no one is investing billions into your dog's shit, are they?

It's closer to Space Ghost Coast to Coast

Very much agreed.

He's not an infant or a puppet. Anything posted for him almost certainly comes with his at least partial approval. Who do you think hires his PR firm? He does.

Well. Half of Tenacious D. The other half is making posts on his Instagram like this:
