Reply to comment by Gnarly_Sarley in A decisive game in the community. I love it. Having a ton of fun. by MartymicFly

There’s a lot of controversy surrounding this game, its contents, its devs, its ties to Russia and the ongoing war in Ukraine. Too much to really put into words here, but there’s plenty of credible resources online that can provide a neutral perspective on the matter.

The choice is yours in the end. Best to make it an informed one.

Reply to Good games on iPhone? by [deleted]

Guardian Tales is a good one for puzzle/ adventure/RPG. The game has lots of variety, humour, good writing, an emotional story. The puzzles are reminiscent of a classic Zelda game

The only con is that it has a Gacha system, but you can manage most of the story without touching it. It’s not open-world, but split up in worlds/levels.

Reply to Zombie game recommendation by adean7498

You mention you played and loved Days Gone and The Last of Us. Did you play those through entirely, or just bits and pieces? I think Days Gone, TLOU and TLOU2 are awesome, and well worth a Playstation (or gaming PC for DG and TLOU1). Especially because the Playstation has a lot more (non-zombie) games that are similar in scope and quality, and not available on Xbox.

Reply to comment by Nameless-Servant in Seeking Monolingual English participants for test of visio-spatial reasoning skills and perpsective taking mechanisms and how this might be mediated by mono/bilingualism. Experiment is a game based on memory and visio-spatial cues by Naculabulakids

The monolingual category describes those who are fluent in one language and have minimal knowledge in another language e.g. the person who remembers how to conjugate a few verbs or even a tense or two or have a very basic conversation in Spanish is considered monolingual in my study

Bilinguals are those who are fluent in 2 languages. They are comfortable expressing and understanding most ideas in 2 languages

I disqualify those who I consider grey-area participants. Those who have an intermediate knowledge of another language e.g. someone who can have conversations in a second language about many topics but would struggle to express more complex ideas. In terms of Spanish, I would say a person with intermediate knowledge could conjugate most tenses but would struggle in the more difficult aspects of speaking such as the subjunctive forms or idioms

Reply to Is exploiting considered cheating? by squireofrnew

If developers have it in the game it’s not cheating. Like in fighting games you can often cheese wins by doing the same move over and over and honestly it’s legit because it’s just playing the game. Might be considered lame but it ain’t cheating. Likewise you can sometimes skip parts of levels in platformers which again isn’t cheating. Something like using an external program to give infinite lives or infinite health would be.

Reply to Need a new mouse, Suggestions? by Hooded_Fox

I recently needed a new mouse because my razer ouroboros started having left click issues after 6+ years of service.

So since my last few mice have been razer and I don't have any bad experience I went with razer basilisk v3 and I am not regretting. It is a really great mouse imho.

I'd recommend it to anyone..
