Hey, thought I'd let you all know that an opportunity for a staff security researcher has opened up in the proofpoint threat research team.

The work is remote, the pay scale is included in the job listing, etc. Benefits are really good. It's not the exact division that I work in (emerging threats) but we're in divisions that work together.

@cR0w it certainly is.

the trailer for this looks interesting, but the minute I see the tag soulslike I immediately wonder if this game is going to have shit input lag or require fighting the same fight tens of times to figure out every phase of the fight, and how this one Tough Dude barely telegraphs their attacks.

Souls-likes are hard, but the way that they are hard just seems artificial to me. I don't enjoy that.

ah, star wars shit is on sale. Outside of Andor, the house of mouse has fucked star wars to death.

Wait, this game plays like a souls-like doesn't it? That means its roll slop and everyone tells you to get gud.

But at unlike most souls-likes, at least it has a storyline, and doesn't spawn 10-hour video essays.

let's see.

another borderlands game?

Listen, if you have ever watched Civvie 11, you will know how much of a greaseball Randy Pitchford is, and you'd never support another Borderlands game again.

This is on top of Randy telling you its normal for new games to perform like shit and to get over it. It wouldn't be normal, if you weren't using fucking Denuvo.

I don't know what the fuck to do right now.

what's featured right now. Oh, PoE II. "Dude fuck it. We weren't making enough money off of DLC, so we just re-released PoE and got poor fuckers to pay for it this time around.

The one good thing that came from PoE II was that live-stream Elon did where they bullied him into ending the stream. God that was marvelous. You might possibly be the first, entirely undeserving and entirely unncessary trillion dollar man, but you're constantly reminded that everyone knows you're a shitter.

I can't keep this one to myself. WATCH THIS VIDEO.

sniper elite though. I keep thinking about it because in no other game can you shoot Hitler in the testicles to kill him.. And also, there is point to using subsonic ammunition. Maybe for the steam winter sale.

who the fuck is bohemia interactive? Soldier in the corner looks like he needs to take a shit.

Oh yeah, Arma. The milwank simulator. "I'm too realistic for CoD, too high strung for battlefield, and I don't have the patience to play sniper elite."

oh hey, it's that game. That one that is going to get nominated for a bunch of video game awards, but won't actually get the award, because game awards is rigged.

I'm a sucker for roguelites because I like meta-progression ,even if the game has harder game modes that kick you back into the dirt. repeatedly. Also, is that a fucking dragonkin with a shotgun?

what in the fuck is this doing in my featured queue. Now the fun begins.

(in case, y'all don't know, this is a bit. Kinda like most game reviewers, I'm going to slag on everything in my featured and recommended list for fun.)

every time I see this game I die inside. Why? Dragon Age was a HUGE game with a HUGE variety of backgrounds, dialogue choices, branches, areas to explore, lore, challenging fights, it was just... really damn good.

Then came this. Your choices were reduced to a dialogue wheel, the dialogue choices were "angry", "sad", or "ye olde shitposts". The fights all took place in the same three maps. The dialogue choices between characters were all superficial. It felt like there was overall less at stake. The enemies would literally FALL FROM THE FUCKING SKY when you kill all of them just to make the encounter longer.

sigh. We had such hope for you.

Listen, I played it one time and generally I didn't enjoy it. I never played witcher II or witcher III afterwards. but let me see what you got.

I remember that period time before Blizzard was completely taken over by Activision, before Diablo III came out, and Torchlight was relevant, because it was a lovingly crafted hack and slash, and at the time, the spiritual successor that we needed. Much like blizzard, every iteration of torchlight has been progressively worse.

I like how the devs for this game release a patch - the "mesa" update, like a week before silksong came out, and had enough gallows humor to be like "Yeah, we spent an excruciating amount of time on this patch. Have fun, we know you fuckers are leaving for silksong next week."

Honorable mention: Landfall a co-publisher for this game, published and developed haste, and I don't need to tell you how much I adore the main character Zoe.

if you fail to meet your number quota, the sun will explode.

This is some cruelty squad shit, innit it?

oh hey, I saw a speedrun of this recently. I was so lost. when I watched it. All I know is that it was hilarious that there are areas that your character can grapple on to that almost touch the sky box, and let you get past loading zones and dialogue triggers.
