CJRants: FREEDOM TO BUY GAMES

You can get the games here: https://items.gog.com/freedomtobuy/index.html
Side note GOG games are DRM Free meaning you own all the games you get from them. This is different from steam as Steam only lets you play games if it can verify you purchased them. Meaning if steam ever goes down or take down certain games you might not be able to play them even if you bought them fair and square. This is another reason I like GOG. They are very dedicated to letting gamers preserve their games.

Ha, if that isn't a bit of irony, just went to redeem the games - kept getting unspecified error messages of "something went wrong". As it turns out, the majority of those games aren't available in Germany already, because of the way video games are scrutinised to insane levels concerning censorship. I knew Postal 2 was in that group, but I am surprised some of the smut games drew that ire, usually they go after violence here, not porn - or maybe the devs/publisher/GoG just decided it wouldn't be worth the hassle to sell here with those rules. But managed to get a few at least.
@abnormalhumanbeing@videos.abnormalbeings.space Thats a shame. did not know it was so difficult to get certain games their.
I forgot to say hello Peertube again I am sorry. It's hard when I got in a habbit with my intros. I really do want to get into the habit of saying Hello Peertube at the start of my vids but I was in a rush to make this one.
@cjmakesvideos It's okay, don't worry about it.
@cjmakesvideos@peertube.wtf Changing habits is hard, especially when in a rush, thank you for providing your videos here on the Fediverse to begin with!
Postal 2 is really a unique little thing, completely of its time in a way. Just to highlight the kind of edgelord-humour as almost a historical artifact it's worth it to preserve. Teenage me had an edgelord phase like that, and I thoroughly enjoyed it - and even in its crassness, there is some genuine satire there (not just in the "calling things satire to get away with stuff"-way), that would be censored away just the same. I've also heard House Party is quite funny to mess around in, never played it myself either, though.
I think you highlighting with your story, how important even "smut" games can become in inspiring people in unexpected ways is quite important. Hell, even if it's a horrible game, there can be some inspiration exactly from seeing what doesn't work as mechanics, or behind failed mechanics there may be some decent idea that just needs another look from a different person to get inspired by them.
Also, no rush on the Let's Play videos, at least I'll be happy to enjoy them whenever it works out for yu! Thanks again for providing this on PeerTube and take care!
@abnormalhumanbeing@videos.abnormalbeings.space Thank you. Unfortunately I don't think I will actually finish the earthbound vids. I keep trying to record them but i took to long a break and forgot what was going on so most of the vid is me trying to figure out things I already know which I don't feel would be fun to watch. Might post a review of it on here after playing it in my free time though.
@abnormalhumanbeing@videos.abnormalbeings.space things i should already know i meant. I will finish the Undertale series since I know that game well enough I am not likely to get stuck in the same way.
