I blame Microslop

I haven't finished the base game yet! I fell off a year or so ago and have meant to get back into it, but just haven't gotten there yet. I know that the DLC is supposed to be harder, but still, coming off the baseline talos1 being what it was, I still wanted a higher bar to enter, so to speak, with the challenge puzzles being even more difficult (without being TOO arbitrary and overly convoluted, obv).

1 was great but flawed. Just play it blind and finish it.

2 the puzzles were bizarrely easy, but an incredibly gorgeous game.

Both have great soundtracks too. Definitely a go-at-your-own-pace franchise and very antithetical to modern AAA gaming. Know who Croteam are and Devolver Digital, and their relationship and what they make and what they stand for.

I adore both games and think quite highly of them. Again though, don't look anything up, ever.

Eugenics is the final boss of racism. It all leads to that, every time.

I feel like the whole concept of souls is just racism. Because for souls to have a concept of existence and value, some sort of identity between life and death must be, implying, basically, eugenics.

"This soul is better than this other soul" etc. An inherent superiority and inferiority, separate from our minds, insulated, even from logic.

Don't buy this game or anything by the studio ever.

It was a good studio and is a great game, but it was taken over by some really really shitty people in a hostile takeover. A bunch of the core employees got superfucked and have spoken out against it. It was 100% offensive greed.

Oh god. Looking at the Wikipedia entry, it was apparently super messy and still is. I'm not sure what to go by, now. I'd probably still suggest playing it if you care about depth and intelligence of dialogue, which in my book, in this game is SS-Tier.

Some games give you options to pick what to say, you choose one, and your character says something stupid that has nothing to do with what you thought. This game is like the total opposite of it, in that you can 100% read into the perspective and intent, and try to infer several steps out. Super super fun stuff. Very very satisfying.

If you don't enjoy philosophy and rhetoric, probably pass on the game. Ngl. But, if this type of thing interests you at ALL, give it a shot.

But probably pirate it.

I imagine it probably turns to curd or cheese, and then polymerizes and you can shoot bullets like the worst revision batman.

As of 2026, millennials span 45-30 years old, give or take a year in each direction because of birth month/day.

So you must know only the absolute youngest millennials.

What is "the illegals"?

Hash browns are just really expensive, these people actually get paid a lot. Hash browns take multiple entire industries to build. You wouldn't even have them without capitalism./s
