I'm not cool, and I'm not smart, but I can parallel park.

I think I'll know I've made it the day my mom hands me gas money after a trip home, and I refuse it.

@theWellRedMage That said, I'm kind of a hypocrite who likes the shiny things, and I often find myself getting the remake of the game I love. In a way, it's like getting to see how the original looked to people when it released.

If that makes sense.

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

@theWellRedMage When you have a game like System Shock 1, I think a remake is fully justified because the OG, while great at its time, just didn't age well and can't really be ported as is.

For most games, however, a remaster with some tweaked controls and QoL improvements is the way.

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

@theWellRedMage Get the pixel collection and try dabbling with each. But realistically, probably 4 or 6.

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

@SynthPotato ...they can all just be great in their own ways? They're very different games from each other.

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

@theWellRedMage As someone who never played the original until 2 years ago, I think it's a perfectly fine starting point if you get the pixel remaster.

FF3 though...that can probably be skipped.

Every time I find the actions of Gen Z and Gen Alpha to be annoying or cringy, I need to remind myself that Millenials used to unironically end posts with things like #liveauthentic.

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

@theWellRedMage 3 was a huge regression in story and setup.

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

@theWellRedMage I just hope the creators choose to have some semblance of RPG mechanics and character building. I liked FF16 as a game, but even Crisis Core had more build depth than that game.

Dear @Microsoft and @Office,

With all due respect, STOP TRYING TO FORCE ME TO USE COPILOT.

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

@TSoS_ I liked season 1's score. A solid theme. A few standout tracks like One Way Out. That said, this season really felt like a step up musically. Talk about rising to the challenge.

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

I don't care if you paid me to do it. I'm not going to watch anything on Tubi.

16yr old me played Oblivion so 34yr old me could play Oblivion almost 20yrs later. #OblivionRemastered

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

This is one of the most baffling stupid things I've heard in a while...and these days, that's saying something.

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

@theWellRedMage Imagine if they still had the original hi-res renders of all the characters and artwork on hand and were able to put out an HD version of this masterpiece.

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

How is it that January lasted 3 months but February was only around for a week and a half?

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

@theWellRedMage This game combined with Maximum Force in the tiny arcade corner of my hometown bowling alley (which still had smoking inside) will forever be a core memory. Take me back.

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

@Konami Hope for further adjustments to the screen set up. I know the DS makes it difficult, but a fullscreen option where you can toggle through each screen would be great.

[Timothy Snyder @TheTimSnyder]

@theWellRedMage Work on parrying sooner than later because you basically have to use it against the final boss.

Also look up how to get the three Umbilical cords before defeating Rom the spider or you won't be able to get the true ending.
