Suck_on_my_Presence

Seinfeld, the last point is Seinfeld

Honestly, just where I'm at in life. I've been pulling myself up by my bootstraps for all my life.

Grew up in bumfuck poorsville with abusive parents, joined the military, did some cool stuff, left and went to college, bought a house, graduated, sold the house, moved across country, got a job with my degree, and found a solid friendship group who encourage and care for me and vice versa.

This is all while suffering from an unseen disease that I was finally diagnosed with while in college and have been fighting against ever since.

I am proud of my achievements and I can really say to myself that I made it, despite everything, I made it.

My experience says no to this. Maybe usually, but I fell on my ass a few too many times and gave up trying to learn the rest.

As an 800 hour player that has to put the game down because of competitiveness making me a curmudgeon -- Wow, gotta say. That's so much work.

Did you use the practice modes to get to be that level or did it just come to you during play?

Hmmm, while I see your point on the phrase, my friend group and I only ever use it on subjective things. Like orange juice or chocolate milk being better, for example. If we're both arguing (in a fun way) and have no good points to change the other's mind, then we agree to disagree. Haha

I've been casually looking at the ioniqs - is anything in the interior intrusive? I have a problem with EVs having massive screens or way way too many buttons.

That's what I came here to say as well. It's so well done and it hits in such a profound way.

Have you read any of the short stories on the game's website? I highly recommend it. Catherine's is so sad and it really gives a ton of insight into what she went through.

What is it about the Long Dark that's stuck with you?

I actually want them to step away from 5e/DnD in general. I loved DOS2, but I agree with another commenter that the vast swaths of elements made things challenging in a frustrating way at times. Not that that shouldn't be a tactic to be used, but it definitely was egregious in DOS2.

5E is just... A fuckin mess when it comes to balancing the game - said as a long time DM and player. There are so many things that just irritate the heck out of me with the system that can't necessarily be balanced with a video game slapped overtop of it. (Not to say Larian didn't do a good job with what they were given, but still)

That being said, I am a total fanboy of Pathfinder 2e and the way things are balanced there, and I would love love love to see a CRPG under those rules. Especially if it was Larian-levels.

I just made the switch to Boost, myself

Ugh. I made the mistake of looking at the comments section. Good lord. Don't do that if you value your sanity
