I got it from my sister as a kid. I felt fine. She is six years older and was pretty bad with it.

Only if Sino on reddit was as well. Which I thought was when I first came across it.
When people often text me or call to make sure plans are still on, it has the weird effect of making me no longer want to go. I’m introverted, but if I make plans I will be there. So it sort of opens the door for me to cancel for some reason.
I get that side of it. I honestly rarely play any games these days looking for feeling like a sense of accomplishment. I just play for an escape more than that.
I also enjoy some grindy games. So the meta progression can fit that for me. But I certainly agree it isn’t for everyone. That is what makes gaming so great. Usually something out there for everyone and it would get pretty boring if they were all the same.
Like an abusive manipulative ex.
This is how I’ve seen it. I only like the Lights usually because I enjoy meta progression. I feel like it makes the difference for me to feel like I’m not just wasting my time. I should also mention I’m pretty terrible at games so the meta progression helps me make progress where other games I’d be stuck too often.
I see ads all the time now using various famous actors voices for spamming scammer crap. If someone didn’t know better they would absolutely think these actors were shilling the stuff.
Not me personally, but I worked with a guy that always thought Secret Agent Man was Secret Asian Man.
Hellblade Senua’s Sacrifice. Played it with headphones as many suggested. I had recently lost my uncle, who by the time he died, was in a pretty bad state mentally. Seeing and hearing things that weren’t there. Everyone out to get him. Calling to say the cops were trying to break into his home. No one was there.
He was a good guy and incredibly funny. Introduced me to the greatness of Monty Python at a young age. He was getting some better help near the end, finally. In part because he finally was accepting help.
He was a Vietnam vet, and from what everyone told me came back changed like so many did. This, in part, led to drug use that spiraled him down. Much better handled than some as he always held a job and such.
But the game made me think of what he might have been experiencing, and it was overwhelming for me. I think I stopped a third of the way through. It is very well done, but I just couldn’t deal with it.
Shitty pic, sorry. I’m in the middle of a move and pulled it out of a box. This one ended up displayed at Disneyland and won a people’s choice award by park visitors. He was pretty proud of that.
I’m not a woodworker, but I love this community. This one brought back great memories of sitting and watching my grandfather carve similar pieces. Not mirrors, but he would make clocks or just wall pieces. I have several of his very early ones and then one of his last before he passed. Seeing the progression always makes me smile.
Thanks for sharing and reminding me of some good life moments.
I think it absolutely is. I played it a bit at launch and didn’t find it near as bad as others but still set it aside. Started it fresh again with the expansion, and I had such a blast with it. You own it, so I see no reason not to a least give it a try.
Well, let’s just say them fighting hard to say he doesn’t confirm all of our suspicions.
Gotta love the Streisand effect on display. Wouldn’t have known he smells if they hadn’t “fired back.”
To be fair, I’m sure I’ll forget about this in less than an hour. Secret will be safe with me.
Yeah, it seems like they went on that buying spree to make themselves more attractive to sell.
Key word potential. I’ve seen so many of these over the years. The frustrating ones can be like these when even the earliest clinical trials haven’t been started.
Sounds cynical, I know, but I’ve lived with the disease for a long time. Something like this will get circulated in support groups without them understanding just how early this is for a potential treatment.
Fuddy-duddy.
(You said I could)
Not who you asked, but I find myself turning it off more often than not. I just never see it as adding much to my experience. I tend to notice it more as annoyance more than anything else.
