Platinum Hits

Mostly post about my nerdy, intellectual hobbies. Tabletop games, video games, memes.

@magnus_trent @TouHupsistou @Pirat_Nation It all went downhill when TTRPGS (specifically 5e) started appealing to the masses by focusing more on roleplaying with light rulesets. War gamers were pushed out of the hobby. All that's left is troons and theater kids.

Excited for E-Day! Getting chased by a Berserker really builds the mood 😆

@TemplarsRoar It's so retarded and predictable I'm convinced we live in a simulation 🤣

[StellarBlade @StellarBlade]

It's our first mission in a while. Aren't you... a little excited?

@drizzymfndre @Wario64 Yes! Played it recently, it's really good.

@gretschlllo I've only played the digital version. Fun game. It definitely plays best at higher player counts.

[Platinum Hits @Platitsco]

I REALLY want to play this game, but my back log is so full 😭

[Pirat_Nation 🔴 @Pirat_Nation]

Only 7.9% of players have finished the main story of Crimson Desert, despite the game launching nearly two months ago.

Most players are still exploring the game’s enormous early regions.

Many players spend 40–70+ hours there before seriously advancing the main story.

Steam achievement data shows:
>77.4% have completed Chapter 1.
>26.6% have reached Chapter 7.
>Only 7.9% have completed all main quests.

Pearl Abyss estimated a focused main-story run at roughly 50–80 hours.

With exploration and side content, most players go well beyond that, often reaching 75–95+ hours, while completionist playthroughs are commonly reported at 300–400 hours or more.

This is why Crime & Punishment is the greatest novel of all time. It's the perfect encapsulation of moral relativism, as well as the consequences.

Notice how it was a BABY up until the point they didn’t want it. Abortion is murder and everyone knows it.

The auto translation for this post has it reading: people can't play board games because "they can't read the rulebook" rather than "they can't understand the rulebook". For a second I thought Japan was having a literacy issue 🤣 Auto translation loses a lot of nuance.

ボドゲの説明書が読めなくて遊べないって人は少なくないと思いますし、そのハードルがなければもっと流行る気もします。それなりにボドゲで遊んでるつもりですがイラストや動画が無いといまいちイメージが掴めず、説明書の途中で諦めてしまうことが未だにあります。
動画上げてくれる方に感謝🥹

This is a real, playable character, in a crowdfunded arena battler board game 🤣

[Platinum Hits @Platitsco]

How to spot a board game that's been in development hell for 8+ years...

[Platinum Hits @Platitsco]

@Pray4TheBatman @khaliltooshort Did you not see the latest Naked Gun?

[Platinum Hits @Platitsco]

So far, it's been fun and bombastic. The highs are high and the lows are low. Ammo is tight and definitely a resource to be managed. Enemies can get nasty action chains through their cards and get the jump on you if not careful.

Gears of War Scenario 1. Lost the first game because Cole ran too far ahead and ended up getting ganked 😭 Second game was a victory. Baird Killed two boomers in the same space using grenades, then Cole chainsawed the final wretch and drone using his "Slaughter" card.

Cultural Marxist have been slowly indoctrinating us into anti-natalism. ALL the female models lack full lips, wide hips, and any breasts. Go play any Assassin's Creed game, it's the same thing. They look and are animated the same as the male characters.

[Noir 浮世 @madcap412]

Yeah, PlayStation studios is doubling down in their direction

Their California devs are dead set on making PS a girlboss/feminist brand....these guys just stopped making games for men

I'm very relieved that their garbage is not going to PC anymore

I'm SO OUT

[Platinum Hits @Platitsco]

Finished the set up for Gears of War. Specific tiles are used for each scenario, but the order they're placed is randomized. Each enemy type has 4 AI cards. They're all shuffled together to create a deck. Players used a shared action card deck.

[Platinum Hits @Platitsco]

There's no proof, but I'm certain the owner knew what they had. The previous owner knew this game was valuable but wasn't trying to scalp or "make a profit". I think it's a good attitude to have. Board games are meant to be played, not sit on a shelf collecting dust.

[Platinum Hits @Platitsco]

I hit the motherload of used games 😭 Not only did I get this out of print game for a good price, but it has the even HARDER to find expansion pack.

#bgstats for May in Fort Worth Texas. Those hours logged for Dune War for Arrakis were for a single, solo, playthrough 🤣

Wandering Galaxy I rage quit the other day because the app didn't save my game. It was a pretty fun family game. Not meant for solo play.
