Ah a great gift from the Adherents of the Repeated Meme.

Nothing else like it out there.
I keep meaning to check this one out but haven't yet. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1290170/Titan_Chaser/
Don't worry. It's bigger on the inside... 🟦
Pushing the definition but I started when it was still in beta... Minecraft has gotten hundreds and hundreds of hours put into it.
Terarria and Starbound are both really good and scratch that same itch as Minecraft. Core Keeper is another one that has some of that feel and I ended up really enjoying.
Surprised I haven't seen it mentioned but Cave Story was made by one guy doing everything... and everything in it is immaculate. It's still free for the original version as well.
Stardew Valley is awesome and restarted a genre.
Crypt of the Necrodancer is awesome, and well worth checking out... also goes on sale really cheap.
Pacific Drive is a fun one to check out. If you're from the PNW, it will hit even more.
Really enjoyed Stray. Worth grabbing on a sale.
OwlBoy was a delightful game with a lot of character.
Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night was a really nice return to form if you like IgaVanias.
If you like roguelites then you owe it to yourself to check out Enter the Gungeon (isometric) as well as RoboQuest (fps).
If you want a game that's beautiful, with emergent story and is hard af... definitely check out Rain World.
Is Black Mesa still considered indie? It's how I would recommend anyone play Half-Life 1 these days.
Rusty's Retirement... isn't so much a game.. sorta.. but yeah.. check that out.
Looks like he’s having an existential crisis over it too… 🦆
Yeah. The tilting back lcd is a must for me, especially if there is no EVF. So I’ve been looking at the e-pl6 because I can get it fairly cheap with a warranty from a reseller. It doesn’t have all the features but it does look promising. I just keep looking at the ones for 100 more and they have some newer sensors and screens etc. Always go round and round on this stuff heh.
With the e-m10 and the gx80 having similar feature sets... what is making you stick with the e-m10 more?
For walking around... I want something I can walk around in the city. I don't really do street photography per se since I don't like photographing people... but I do like landscape and architectural and just documenting my life sort of things. I like nature walks and parks and such as well... not really hiking... more casual stuff.
My experience is moderate. I started with 35mm in the 80's and 90's and worked as an assistant to a portrait and event photog in the early 00's. So I am not a pro but I'm not new to using a camera. Like I said, I have am om-d e-m5 ii now, which is great but I'd like something with a flip up screen and with a slimmer profile than the SLR body style of the e-m5 as well as a bit less weight. Since I already have several m43 lenses that cover a gamut of focal lengths (7.5mm FE, 14-42mm, 45mm f/1.8, 40-150mm) it feels like just slotting a small m43 body into my kit will be a no brainer. I plan on picking up some small primes soon as well, so all the more reason that sticking with just adding a new m43 body for versatility makes sense. I primarily shoot in manual mode, so having some physical controls to adjust those quickly would be nice, but since this is a secondary body it isn't a deal breaker if it doesn't have dual dials.
Yeah... some of the models that are popular have insane prices... and it's gonna probably get worse what with the apocalypse and all. :(
Looks like a gx7 is about 300-350, a gx85 is 450-500, a gx8 is 600-750, and gx9 is 850-1050. Like... I see a G9 II on the page for 1300... IDK why some of those rangefinder models from several years ago are so high priced. smh.
Oh WTF. It’s not like we need stuff like that. I’m sure all these big corporations will look out for us on their own. 🤦
