  1. I mean for real though anything else would be considered incomplete at best in this kind of state, piracy is not a "crime" if releasing broken garbage is a "business"

    • @scribus The only sane way to enjoy games is to wait until it's on sale. Up to that point most bugs have been squashed and cheap enough to buy two or more games for the price of one new game. I just bought myself Return To Monkey Island. I'm hesitating on buying Metal Wolf Chaos XD. I tried the original on my hacked XBox (copied to the HDD) but the cutscenes stuttered horribly.

    • @adiwan That's why I waited 22 years to even try Everquest!

    • @scribus I waited years for the release of the sequel of my most favorite game, Simon The Sorcerer 2, which was Simon The Sorcerer 3D. When it eventually released it was a MESS. Everything that could be wrong was wrong, from the graphics, the controls, the performance, story, bugs at every corner... I was heartbroken when I was reading the reviews in the magazines. It took years until I was brave enough to face it, when I got the full version with the add-in CD from a PC gaming magazine. Even patched it was still a sewer system worth of kiwi. The 4th and 5th installment of Simon The Sorcerer were better but were soulless imitations of the first two.

  2. Bought myself two "chocolate" tomato plants. I'm curious if they really taste chocolatey. Gonna have to wait a few months.

  3. With Lost Judgment (finally) beaten, that is every single mainline Yakuza game under my belt. I started Yakuza Kiwami around this time in 2023, so I’ve been at it for about a year. …what do I do now?

    • @zeldatra I'm also inflicted with the same life question. I'm suffering for any new RGG game while contemplating if other things in life can fill out the void but never can. You can play Ishin. If you're adventurous you may play Kenzan (the other that plays in old Japan) or Kurohyou 1 and 2 (the PSP games).

    • @adiwan Kurohyo is probably where I’ll end up next.

    • @scribus PC parts costs are really out of whack! I wanted to upgrade my PC 4 years ago and I'm still limping on with my 2017 old rust bucket. The same holds true with my deteriorating laptop. Even used prices aren't what they used to.

  6. All of Ijincho only has one school and it’s a private high school, it’s no wonder everybody in town is either a yakuza, a triad, or homeless

    • @scribus unironically the dumbest person in The Big Lebowski probably was better educated than any single person in Ijincho is since according to Lost Judgment nobody at this high school actually attends any classes ever. They’re attending dance club, or reading mystery novels in a boiler room, or painting themselves to look like body models and hiding in classrooms for days at a time to steal test answers, or plotting murders, or getting beat up by me on the streets miles away from the school, but nobody’s learning, I guarantee you that

    • @zeldatra It's a school for school delinquents. It's part of their curriculum to not attend school.

    • @adiwan Ever had a baked potato that turned out to have grown around a nice rock? Likewise an unpleasant crunch surprise.

    • @scribus Ooooof.... That is a very nasty surprise. I had something similarly unpleasant: My mother uses a casserole dish made out of glass and one day there were glass chunks in the food. It turned out that due to wear the inner edge of the lid and the dish got so damaged that they eventually broke off. Only in hindsight it was obvious what happened. I got some of the glass pieces but luckily I noticed it very quickly in my mouth and nothing happened to anyone. We threw out both the casserole dish and the food.
