  • While I mostly agree, let me point out that a random person is not going to get a CT. It’s almost 100% rich, right-wing tech-bros or fElon fanboys, or narcissistic assholes. If anyone is blowing away that much money, they have either researched the market and have put a higher weight on looks, ideology or signalling loyalty than on any practical aspects - or they have done no research at all. Both cases deserve to be ridiculed.


  • My wife is a 30+ woman and she loved (among others) OneShot, World of Goo, and Final Fantasy XV.

    OneShot is an atmospheric, story-based game with some puzzle elements and a lot of lovable characters. On the flip side, there’s a lot of walking and it’s easy to get lost. Nevertheless, there’s a deep connection you as the player can build with the characters and the world they inhabit.

    World of Goo is a physics-based building game, where you build bridges and towers out of cute sentient rubber-like balls, but beneath the solid physics, art and music there lies a deep social commentary too.

    Final Fantasy XV is the most mainstream of these, but it is an entry into the FF games specifically designed for newcomers in mind. It follows four main and several supporting characters on a journey that starts as a road trip interspersed with beginner-friendly but still jaw-droppingly well rendered and animated combat and slowly but surely escalated to an epic catharsis.
