What's the most underrated sport videogame of all time? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

[-] Psymonkee@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Never see anyone mention it so I'll go with Hyperblade!

Futuristic combat skating game that was played in stadiums akin to the inside of a rugby/american football so you had high sides for doing tricks, goals at each end and hazards in the middle.

Hazards I hear you ask? Why yes! Spinning gates with blades on them to hurt your opponents and various other objects caused a small amount of bodily harm and bleeding. This led to a viable strategy of simply killing the opposing team.

Bonus points if you decapitated them too - literally. You could use opposing players heads to score more goals. Hilarious and probably not suitable for an early teens kid but I think I mostly turned out ok.

Huh, that was what 5 years ago now? I will remember telling randy he was wrong (in perhaps an alcohol fuelled rant 🤭) only to get swiftly blocked.

What book that hasn't been adapted into a TV show or movie do you think deserves an adaptation? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

[-] Psymonkee@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six. Could be a fun mini series to adapt. The video game never grabbed me though.

How are you doing Lemmy? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

[-] Psymonkee@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Not great. Perpetually exhausted (~4 years, onset), GP just gaslights me into thinking I'm fine.

My friends have all but abandoned me since the pandemic.

I have no job and due to the aforementioned fatigue struggle to find a route back to employment.

On the plus side my cat loves me. Probably something to doo with tuna.

Overall I think I win.

Forget star signs, what key do you press to wake up your computer from sleep? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

I thump my water bottle down on the desk just hard enough to make my mouse trigger and wake up the PC. By the time I'm sat comfortably it's awaiting a password :]

Managed to see Limp Bizkit twice during the late 00's/early 10's when they shoved their way onto a festival lineup. Second best band of the weekend! Go if you can!

What is an underrated/forgotten video game that you think deserved a second chance? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

[-] Psymonkee@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Hell yeah! Never thought I'd see this mentioned anywhere. I'd love a modern take on this.

What are you currently excited for? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

[-] Psymonkee@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Excited might be going a bit far but hopefully getting a referral to General Medicine and a little closer to understanding what's wrong with me all the time.

Beyond that some D&D I plan to run when I'm better. Planning and plotting as we speak 😎

Willow got a new 'toy' (lemmy.world)

So poor Willow had to go to the vet for a nail trim as she seems to have gotten lazy in her old age. Largely ignored any scratching posts as she preferred the fence/raised borders outside but is now scared of outside too! (Me too Willow 🤣)

Got her a new scratching post and on the 3rd day (and much catnip spray) we have a scratching session! Hopefully we can keep her using it and save on the vet bills!

Oddly pretty good the last few days! Been suffering from fatigue from an unknown source and for the last 5 days I've slept well, felt 'normal' and been able to get some things done!
