    Yeah sometimes we forget that art movements/styles existed intentionally well before the 19th century lol.

    Short form symbolism is part of media, and while some of that understood context may be lost to time it doesn’t erase it entirely. They were just as nuanced, goofy and human as we are.





  • When you’re done with your first playthrough, get Revision and The Nameless Mod.

    I believe Revision is available on steam but if not, both are on ModDB.

    Also, don’t be afraid to explore, learn your play style (it’s meant to be stealth heavy but run-and-gun is also an option), and don’t sink all your skill points into swimming lmao.

    The tutorial (“training” option in the main menu) is pretty fun and will get you familiarized with all your basics and tips pretty nicely.

    I may have strong nostalgia glasses on but the mechanics still hold up really well and it’s still one of my favorites of all time. I have it on at least 3 platforms and regularly gift it to friends/family when it’s on sale.

    I’ve played some of the 4th game but it’s not the same feel really, more akin to Watchdogs ime. The second game got review bombed on release but seems like a decent game from what I’ve heard from other fans. I have it but haven’t played it yet, probably should lol.

    Thanks for reading my text wall 😅 /gen

    There are games that cost like $2-5 on Steam

    Unless you spend more labor-hours on cooking vats of rice and dry beans (or similar “low cost, affordable” options) and sticking to that exclusively it’s not going to meaningfully increase the meals you can eat.

    As long as OP only has themselves to feed I don’t see an issue with this choice.





  • When I think of a scam, I think a one-off, obviously amateur attempt. An email with awful grammar saying the government will fine me a bajillion dollars if I don’t download a file is a scam. A scam will also leave you alone.

    A grift is done by career slimeballs. Used car salesmen, big C-suites and corrupt politicians are grifters. It’s more offensive and more aggressive. You can’t escape a grift.
