Remember, never Google anything about a game you're playing. It's infinitely more fun to have no idea what the fuck is going on and almost certainly avoid designer intention because you missed something or didn't understand an important system
And this is ESPECIALLY true for games that came out after 2005 where everyone was expected to be online regularly

I google everything about my favourite games and regularly look for more information that I might have missed. I have asperger's.

wow I sure do love to play any competitive online game and get literal death threats for not studying the meta beforehand

A friend had RDR2's ending spoiled because they were trying to look up starter advice and the Google search bar attempted to autocomplete with ending spoiler stuff ("how to play as [ending spoiler]")

Really funny, but also instructive how the internet will always betray you.

The only people who say retarded shit like this are the ones who aren't old enough to know that games used to come with thorough instruction manuals with gameplay instructions and story and character primers.

>>747538618
They literally answered with my IP last match, I confirmed it by typing ipconfig and they were right
>>
>>747538298
that's not the same as following a guide or wiki. manuals were the equivalent of a tutorial before games had tutorials

what are they gonna do? come to your house?

Really? Holy shit I'll move tomorrow, thanks anon

Google is pointless grandpa, just ask the AI to disassemble the game and tell you every little thing about how it works

I don't want to be locked out of crap because I missed something small and couldn't go back to get it. Metroid Prime 1 taught me that lesson when I was a kid with that hornet mini boss fight. Now I search '[video game] missable' nearly every time before getting too far into it if I suspect that may happen.

>Play new game
>Try to google to find the name of an ingame song I liked

Thanks
