Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Tonight's Ask PHLemmy: What's a video game that will forever be in your heart no matter what age you reach?

[–] decadentrebel 2 points 1 year ago

The very first Warcraft. Asked my supposedly rich uncle to buy me Doom 2 while he was in SG, and he got me a 5-in-1 pirated disc instead that had it. It ended up being my favorite RTS all of time despite having played Red Alert, Dark Reign, Starcraft, and other classics before or around that period.

Never did like the sequels, though.

DOTA 1. Toxic pero grabe memories ko sa game na yan.

Chrono Trigger

One of my first RPGs and is always a 10/10 for me

The Wild Arms series. It was my introduction to the turn- based RPG genre.

Playing the game led me to other classics such as Chrono Trigger and FF6.

The music was fantastic and to this day I still listen to the soundtrack. I remember scouring the internet for any version of the first Wild Arms' music.

Early games of the Total War series I've played (Rome 1 and Medieval 2) which I still play (a few mods, mostly)

Red Alert 2 (though I would never play online since I'm incredibly shit at it)

Counter-Strike 1.6 (and 1.3 if it still exists in the wild)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Civilization, maybe Sims. Even though I never played above chieftain sa Civ 🫠

Chase HQ. So much fun even if it's so hard.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ragnarok. Because of this game natuto ako mag-budget para pambili ng load at ng internet cards (salamat ISP bonanza sa student friendly prices).

Until now, I'm still playing, though mobile version na.

im just realizing that "kusina" is much closer to "cuisine" than it is to "kitchen"

it's really hard to deny that my brain is just ooga booga

Invite tayo guys ng mga tao na andun pa rin sa kabila.

I normally don't give a shit about the Kramer's because their dad is an egomaniacal self-obsessed "boomer" (despite being a millennial) and their overt antiquated Christian practices are so cringey, but I just couldn't resist laughing at this news piece:

Doug and Chesca Kramer's daughter Scarlett tries out the violin

Then again, this is as much the fault of GMA for thinking this is worth covering.

TIL na room service food isn't as exorbitant as I remembered. Or maybe sa sobrang mahal na ng food ngayon, natapatan na nila room service. Lmao.

Edit: Generous serving of tapsilog with 2 eggs = 580

Sarap ng buhay ni Jose Mari Chan. Saksakan na sa yaman mas lalo pa natin pinayaman by generating corny memes that got him gigs with Lady's Choice and other products until the ber months last. 🀣
