idk, on the one hand it would be a pain having to hire people to maintain a house to keep the association I pay $2000 a month to happy.

On the other hand, I have zero friends already and could get by never leaving my house, especially a nice one.

So it all really depends. Like out here the Carmel area / 17 mile drive is amazing, if I could get a house there I'd probably never go anywhere.

Ubisoft was one of my favorite companies for a while, but they've shit the bed pretty hard.

Like a while ago they disabled a lot of the community functionality for some of their "older" games, many of which weren't that old at all and I can't imagine it was costing Ubi all that much to maintain dumb things like achievements or store items.

And their last few games have been rather bland. Looking at you Ghost Recon Breakpoint, Far Cry 6 and Watchdogs 3.

The one I remember playing had some level with a stampede in it and you had to crouch behind rocks or fit in the gaps between dinosaurs to not die or something like that.

Really have like zero interest in the MCU. I saw a few Iron Man movies and one Avengers movie and that was enough for me, they just became really boring and monotonous.

This is the only song I've ever heard from them so I guess I shouldn't be too surprised.

But it is definitely strange hearing it without someone shouting those lines.

why does he grab chips and an energy drink at the end of the clip

The song sounds weird without the guy shouting WAKE ME UP, I CAN'T WAKE UP between her lines. Did he quit or what's up with that.

Also her singing sounds boring as hell still. To be fair I used to love Lacuna Coil for about half a year until someone pointed out that the singer sounded like she was bored and constantly on the verge of yawning and I could see it and it ruined it for me.

I hate to see her throwing the pin in the trash but I like to watch her walking away.

5 hour car trip. Or even 5 day car trip if I can. I hate flying, I hate dealing with crowds, I hate waiting for the plane, I hate the rude TSA agents, I hate the rude flight attendants, I hate waiting for my luggage.

When I'm driving I can enjoy the road, listen to some music, pull over and check out some sights.

Curious what all the dumbasses that shrug and say, "Must be global warming" whenever it's marginally colder than you'd expect on any given day would have to say about this.

They got way better after the first one. I could not play the series for the longest time because I just remembered how bland and repetitive the original game was, no matter how many times I tried it... My mind was so biased by this experience I could not comprehend how they could have improved it... but they actually did.

The biggest detractor to most of the early games is the excess reliance on things like slow ass escort missions. The characters were kind of interesting and it was nice that there was a coherent story.

Black Flag and Rogue are pretty similar, with Rogue being streamlined in some places (less overworld collectable bloat imo) and improved in others (like having a fort to upgrade if you care about shit like that). The modern day story is a direct continuation of the original 1-Ezio Trilogy saga's modern story, except told from the perspective of a different character, so if you don't at least read up on that you'll be a little lost... also they're just slow and obnoxious.

Unity was fun, has some cool historical moments, takes itself a little more seriously and grimly than the previous games, has some interesting Arkham-style clue-based puzzles to solve.

Syndicate was also cool, felt ... more like an Arkham-style beat 'em up than an AC game, and you have a grappling hook to swing around with. Feels much goofier in so many ways than the previous games (talk about the pendulum swinging).

Origins is the game that got me into the whole series tbh, the story was interesting and the setting was beautiful and it made me want to see how the games had gotten as far as they had. Odyssey is an overwhelming pointless waste of time. Valhalla streamlines a lot of it, brings back the player-owned fort/camp/town mechanic and was actually pretty fun but very not Assassin-y given the reliance on open combat.

In high school, no.

When I joined the military, yes I cared a lot about doing a good job. And now that I'm in college I also care a lot about getting good grades but it's almost to the point where I'm paralyzed by the pursuit of perfection and it's kind of dragging my performance down.

I do RS off an on, haven't touched it in several weeks now though. Was a huge fan of Secret World before they killed it.

First played: Ultima VIII: Pagan (Windows 3.1)
Beaten: That I remember, Super Mario RPG on SNES.

I'm playing through Nier Replicant and that's how it feels. Gotta find this thing to save this person, *but* I also need to grow or find a watermelon for sale for a quest. Yup...

Requiem posted...

Feel like everyone should stop the boycott.

To the people who didn't like the message, hey, Budlight caved in and you won.
To the people who didn't like Budlight caving, hey, at least the company went to the bat for your cause.

Like, I don't understand why anyone is boycotting the product at this point.

I think people realized that it's ... really not that great so they aren't likely to go back to it.

I was tempted to reinstall CS GO last night when I saw one of the weapon skins I have is worth about $200 on the Market...

Russia killed more civilians in Syria than the US ever could.

Oh yes, I did mean autosaving, thanks. Because I took that for granted as a feature in games, I did not *quick*save and lost whatever progress I had made since starting the game -_-

imo no. I forgot about quicksaving not being a thing in classic games, played a couple of hours, got ganked, totally lost all progress. It was something dumb, too, like I reached a town and they told me to put my weapon away and I thought I did, but... I didn't, and the guards got me.

Second one was rough too from what I remember, if that's the one where you start in a sort of temple fighting radroaches. Combat sucked and I could barely consistently get out of there.

Pretty sure a lot of states, mostly Red, offered a new home to Disneyworld... Wonder why they are just focusing on her. Oh wait, not really.
