Most of the stranger missions I've encountered so far are some boring 'go around and collect/find this crap for me and send it to me in the mail' which I'm not bothering with.

I'm hoping I just haven't encountered most of the good ones yet. I'm still in Chapter 3.

Yes, most of the good ones start after where you are.

They are legitimate, multi-part quest lines with additional story

I'm trying to complete the story before I do side missions, will that lock some out for me?

Playing the story straight through is monotonous; Ive been doing the side missions as soon as they pop up

I believe you can do them all post game but Im not 100% sure

Feels like every main mission is just a big shootout, escape from the law, or tutorial for some weird mechanic

Meanwhile Im near the end of chapter 5 and have been cleaning up side missions which have yielded a number of interesting stories and diversions

And yet theres no way to track your progress on or replay side missions :(

There is minimal time change and it is beautiful. Been there twice now and cant wait to go back


Damn, yeah its about the same flight time. 6 hours to both CA and Costa Rica

Is English your only fluent language? Were you able to navigate decently?

Yeah tourism is their biggest industry so it is easy to get by speaking only english. I know a bit of Spanish which was helpful but not necessary

I've thought about comparing Tony Hawk gameplay to DMC and Bayonetta, considering they both focus on ridiculous combos that get progressively harder the longer you string them out

Platforming though?

I mean the basic gameplay loop of tony hawk is the same as say Mario 64

Each level has six tapes you need to do some platforming challenge to collect

That aside, they were okay. Wouldn't spend anywhere near $70 to see them but you are obviously a bigger fan of them than I am

Since then the original lineup has reunited (minus the bassist) and they now play mainly 90s stuff

There is a tiny-home community about a block from me, its such a great idea and there should be more of them.

I'm not against this idea at all, but from what I've seen tiny homes unfortunately aren't much cheaper than regular homes, though that might be a Portland thing :/

Its probably a Portland thing. These arent for people looking to cut back and live in a tiny home out of some misguided hipster I am

These are small homes built by the local community college that are essentially just a room, and the village has a community bathroom and kitchen. They garden and sell woodwork to help fund it
