I thought nowadays a game with ANY female character at all is considered woke

Puts developers into a bit of a quandary. If you don't make your female character look like a Korean fitness model then neckbeards are going to call you woke. If you do make your female character look like a Korean fitness model then some ***hole at a garbage outlet is going to write a hit piece on you accusing you of literally killing women.

Its easy to align my personal gaming experience with Obsidian games because NWN2 and PoE2 are in my top 10 games of all time

As an aside, I want to make it clear that the sad reaction emoji I reacted with to @Gfted1's post above with was for Akebono.

"The Top 10 Reasons I left gaming and became a withered husk of my former self - number 3 will surprise you!" Maybe break it into parts and pitch each part? Nothing in Fio's post indicates you couldn't have multiple bites at the blog (cue Fio clarification). Based on Fio's wording, I think they'd want a blog post to tie into Obsidian's games in some way.

Now when I think there's quite a number of games with great worlds made by solo devs. Fear and Hunger, Kenshi, RImworld, Stardew Valley...I probably should pay more attention to indie scene. If only itch.io weren't an embodiment of Sturgeon's law.

Im also going to add something. My love and passion for gaming goes back a long way even though I didnt game from about 1995-2007

Nanowar of Steel... completely not inspired by Iron Maiden

truly sad so many player are still enabling horrible dlc practice of paradox

I probably beat you to it, but it's all out of my hands at the moment

Star Wars is a 70s movie, so if it doesn't have 70s hair styles, is it really Star Wars? That said, the few Star Wars games I enjoy, I do so despite them being Star Wars games, not because of it. I have not, and will not ever watch a full Star Wars movie, though I suspect I've seen enough fragments of the original trilogy such that if I were able to assemble them together they would constitute a full movie.

Those look awesome! Waiting for the new Skaven models to be released before spending too much work on my 20 year old plastic rank and file rats (all my character and elite rats are metal miniatures)

How to summarize 40 years of video gaming in a single blog post...

Hello friends, I just want to clarify that this invitation is directed to you as members of the community. This is (y)our chance to share (y)our unique gaming experiences. We’re eagerly looking for contributors to pitch their ideas and, once approved, to craft an article that reflects your passion for gaming. Don’t worry about the editing (if that is a concern); send your draft my way, and I’ll take care of polishing it for you. As well, the blog might be a vlog, maybe even a brief podcast as outlined in the announcement. We’re excited to feature a new blog post on the 7th of each month, starting with our inaugural post on May 7th. Your feedback and discussions have been incredibly valuable, and I look forward to highlighting the community's first submission. Please do reach out as you consider this invitation here or through PM

You're missing out on The Man Who Fell To Earth (1976). Easily one of the best movies I've seen.

Not only anti-vax, he's also quite clearly pro-russia. Anyone voting for him instead of Biden is a loony. His backers want Trump as President. A vote for him is a vote that favours Trump over Biden.

I've been working my charms on Wilhelmina and, judging by how she's blushing, it certainly seems to be paying off: She's perhaps the only character you can romance in the game, the only one I know of for sure. You can befriend just about anybody and get them to really like you and they will act differently toward you, greet you differently, instead of a neutral generic greeting they may say something like "Hey, great seeing you again, I hope you're doing well." It's not a huge deal but I love that kind of reactivity in games. They'll even sometimes give you gifts and if they're shopkeepers they'll give you a discount. You can also go to the brothel and hook up with one of the ladies or gentlemen of the night there and get a really short sexy time cutscene. It will cost you 20K gold, though, so that better be some incredible sex for that kind of money. With Wilhelmina you can have a full-fledged romance, though. There's an entire quest chain for it. I don't know what the quest chain involves I only read up on it as far as knowing when to start the quest chain because there is a narrow window of "time" (in between a couple of specific main story missions) in the game when you can initiate the romance, so once I got that information I stopped reading to avoid spoilers. I haven't quite reached that point yet because I've been doing a lot of side content, but I'm close and in the meantime I worked my charms on her to get her affinity up to maximum. The blushing is this game's indicator of maximum affinity. At the end of the quest chain is presumably some hot steamy sex, eat your heart out @BruceVC
