Holy fucking shit....

I've been trudging my way through Planet Stronghold all night long....

I just now beat the final boss...

And this popup appears, saying that I might want to save the game now. That way, just in case there's an expansion or add-on released, I'll be able to keep my current character.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Damn it, I can't stop laughing at that.

What fucking lunatic would want to play an add-on or expansion to Planet Stronghold? That would be like the digital equivalent of unanaesthetized hemorrhoid surgery.

I guess that's why I loved them... a gamer had to think. Once you figured it out, obvious. But it took time and thought.

Speaking of obvious... turn on the hot water faucets too:) Damn

-13 now...

And I'll let my newspaper just sit there
So, much like sex?

And whether or not, happy birthday...

You can say it as much as you want. The day still doesn't matter.

I know that a lot of the Daedalic Entertainment games have horrible English dubbing. When I played A New Beginning I actually thought it sounded like they used computers for the voice actors, they had no emotion to them and seemed so monotonal. I never understood why they put such little effort into the English version? I would have thought that that would be the biggest selling market for, due partly to the amount of places having English as a secondary language, and also due to the size of the US video game market.

Do you have anything nice planned for the weekend?

I will have to remember this post, just in case you decide to give yourself virtual unanaesthetized haemorrhoid surgery in the future and pick up the Planet Stronghold add-on. I will look back and shake my head at how you keep torturing yourself with horrible games. :-)

The reason for that is that until a few years ago there was no market outside German speaking countries for adventures. No one wanted to publish them. So until steam started selling them allowing a lot of developers to sell their adventures without a publisher, there sometimes was not even an English dubbing. And I think the companies are still a bit stuck in that mentality and therefore put not much effort into it.

You're right... the day doesn't matter....

Asshole...

Look around? Everyone is wishing you a good day. People googled cakes for you. We love you.

Get used to it.

and the sun is out, so it's only -11:) Progress!

That's why I preferred the older adventure games, they made you have to think and work things out. Some even needed a pencil and paper to solve the puzzles, which was always fun. It was nice to finally solve that puzzle you were stuck on for ages.

-13 can not be nice at all. I know a lot of America has been getting a really hard Winter, what with the large amount of snow and low temperatures (at one point some states were colder than the surface of Mars).

That makes a lot of sense. I guess that is one big advantage with digital distribution, it allows developers from those countries to reach a winder audience with their games, rather than be limited to the native country.

No reason whatsoever to do so. If anything, this has assured that no matter what else it might be bundled with, anything from Winter Wolves will be a pass.

To be honest, it annoys the crap out f me. But its not the game... its the gaming culture. Adventure games are all about playing the game, with the walkthoughhhhhhh on your ithing.

Oh warm... its -9 now that the sun is up:)
piprs just blew...see you S[ring

Okay...game deleted, review written, games finished list updated.

Now I just have to forget that I spent a night of my life, something I have a finite supply of, on Planet Stronghold.

I need alcohol.

What kind of temperatures can you expect once the sun is out more and the day starts to warm up?
I guess now it's time to follow Moon's advice and play Legend of Grimrock. I'm sure a pleasant game will help cheer you up after such a horrible game. I guess the alcohol would help as well. :-)

I'm drinking coffee. There's a cooler full of alcohol outside. But I'm drinking coffee.

I frequently make poor decisions.

Great. There's the newest Call of Duty multiplayer in my rental pile.

Only two more days of being around fuckwits, only two more days of the monotony laced with loathing that being around people can bring.

I'm not a big fan of either these days. The only alcohol I tend to I drink now is some wine. I drank more at University, usually drinking games with the boys, but I just got tired of it. For the most part I was never too keen on the taste anyway. I have never liked the taste of coffee, which is probably for the best. I don't need too much sleep as it is, and if I was full of caffeine then I probably wouldn't sleep at all. :-)

Not much point to it. Last time I drank, I wiped out a bottle of whiskey in one sitting, only to be sober again 4 hours later.

And yeah, it sounds like you've got a setup that works for you. No need to screw it up with stimulants.
