AgentBirdnest: No skiing... We were supposed to go snowshoeing, but we never did. We made an igloo, and one of the teachers slept in it :-) ... The coolest part was hiking up a mountain at night to look at the stars, then sliding back down to the cabins lying on our backs :-D [/childhood nostalgia]
You sound like me... I don't like not knowing what to expect either... [/anxiety problems]
Oh yeah... wishlists. To be honest, I've forgotten about them since the new "Account" broke GOGWiki synchronization :'-(
Same for me... Whatever is on my wishlist. There are two more Wadjet Eye games that I'm keeping my Wadjet eye on :-p [/bad joke]
[/too many brackets] n__n
Ho... too bad for the snowshoeing ! :-| ... but awesome for the igloo :-D ... was your teacher glad to sleep in it ? Didn't he/she be too cold ?... or afraid the whole stuff collapses and buries him/her alive ? :-D hehe
:'-) Ho... what amazing and cool childhood memories these are !! it sounds definitely an awesome trip !!
Humpf... anxiety sucks... and also, who is not afraid of the unknown... ** Reassuring big hug **
So... you don't know how the present wishlists work ?... do they update automatically ?... can you see mine, for example ?... did you set you public, or allow only your friends to see it ?... or nothing at all ?... (sorry... that makes quite a lot of questions :D... I should have asked you in PM... ):-| well, if we still had PM !! Tssss... [/ranting against GOG chat system])
... :-| ... Hum... I won't make any comment on that joke... n__o I'm not really the Queen of Jokes either... heheh...

LeoLR: I don't know why Adventure Time never appealed to me.
The first two seasons are painfully average but season 3 onwards it's really great.
At least we can watch The Last Airbender,the series not the horrible movie.

GhostwriterDoF: Oh, well, yes. heh! I have a few more in play but those are the main ones I'm trying to play through at the moment, plus a few more going too, "little games" as you say.

It's hard to run through a bunch of games that are story driven, but when familiar with them, you can easily "pick up where you left off". It's the new ones I'm not familiar with that I end up having to restart a new game because I can't remember the action keys and the story! heh!
Hum... I totally get it. Action keys are always a big deal for me... if there are more than 6-7 keys I get quickly lost... I lost the habit to play action games, plus... I really liked The Nomad Soul when it has been released... GTA3... but since then... I tried Deux Ex recently, and I can't manage to crawl/hide/crouch nimbly enough, I always get caught and fail the sneaky training mission... :'-( ... (and yes, I'm only trying the training mission !! I've not even started the 'real' game... **sigh** [/fail at action games])

AgentBirdnest: Lately, I've been playing The Real Texas, Cthulu Saves the World, and Gemini Rue (all from different stores... heh :-p)
I think you mentioned Kingdom Rush recently? I've been playing the stripped-down flash version with microtransactions lately. I might pick it up here the next time I see it on sale :-)
Ho... ! any opinion about Gemini Rue ?.... I tried it too, lately... but I can't get into it... and I find the controls really sh*tty... (a bit like GOG's chat sys... ok, ok, I stop complaining about this :-p)

l0rdtr3k: Big squishy hug?
I already gave you one... did you see it ? :) but nevermind, I have plenty in stock !!
**Another big squishy hug**

AgentBirdnest: Sounds nice... I played some of Saints Row 3 a while ago (or was it 2?), but never finished. Fun game :-)

Oh Kingdom Rush has a stripped down version with micro transactions? eek!

Well, I'm still playing the GoG version of Kingdom Rush that Moonshineshadow ninja gifted to me. I've only got 4 more levels to finish. It's a really good game, lots of fun and challenging too, plus the music is good as well. If you get a chance, even if you don't usually play Tower Defense games, pick it up when it goes on sale. (Same for Infested Planet and AI War Fleet Command). They are all great games to have in the collection and to play.

I was fascinated by Saints Row 3, at first played it trying to figure out "what is it?" for the first few hours. It is a lot of silly fun driving around in the city and the combat action is good. I won't try to finish all the side missions but I'll try to get through the story.

Metro Last Light is interesting as well, and seems more of a survival horror shooter, heavy on story. Hoping 2033 shows up here soon too. After playing a little bit of Darksiders 2, it is definitely one I'm going to spend some time on to fully explore. ;)

*rushes in*
here's some blue notes by t. monk!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zriS77PCaTk
"The existence of the blue note within music derives, in part, from the fact that equal temperament in western diatonic harmony is an artifice or compromise originally used in the eighteenth century to address problems posed in the creation of keyboard instruments. Equal temperament was an artificial 'straightening out' of a tendency for the natural harmonic series (musical intervals as they exist in nature) to go off at a tangent, meaning that higher intervals and octaves in their natural form are of a different pitch than the lower intervals and octaves." - blue note / wikipedia

Nah, the teacher wasn't worried (he wasn't my teacher, but another class's teacher.) He was a total badass B-| ... A veteran of the Gulf War. He had a belt of 40mm grenades hanging on his wall (I really hope they were deactivated ,'',,'',,',:-|)
Thanks for the reassuring hug. That means a lot to me :'-) **Extra big reassuring thank you hug**
Yeah, the chat kinda sucks... I miss PMs. I just sent you some info about the wishlists so I won't clutter the forum, I hope GOG didn't eat it ):-/
Right, you are not Queen of Jokes... You are Empress of Jokes! Get it right ;-D

I've never played through Deus Ex, only did a test run of it. Even though it is antiquated, it still seemed the action was good. You'll just have to get used to the gameplay (and the keys!) to be successful in the Deus Ex environment.

I usually don't have the patience to play the "stealth" games, since I'm usually pressed for game-time. And I'd rather go through levels with guns blazing than to sneak around, but sometimes a good stealth/survival experience is a nice change of pace. ;)

Omikron Nomad Soul is surely one I want to play through, but it is a very odd game, with unusual mechanics, almost like a whole bunch of different types of games all blended into it. heh!

Games that have their own or complicated key schemes will definitely require a focused attention without too many distractions to get through them successfully.

Yeah... The flash version of KR is just one stage... about a dozen levels I think. With fewer heroes, enemies, and everything else. I think the graphics are lower quality as well. It feels like a demo. I'm really enjoying it though, and definitely plan to get the full game :-)

I played 2033, but never finished that either. I enjoyed it, but ultimately it got pushed into the backlog once I started playing a couple of newer games :-p

I've already signed this "petition" :) ... I doubt it will change anything, but at least we can tell what we thing about it... that's something ! :-)

Yes... I didn't like the "stealth" parts in Nomad Soul very much either... not really my thing :-\ but it's a good game, yes :-) as you said, it mixes different types of games, which is nice, when it's well done...
And yes, maybe it just requires an amount of attention that I'm not ready/able to give at the moment (?)... hm...

It was the '90s... and Utah... Having a belt of 40mm grenades on a school wall would definitely be illegal now, even if they are deactivated (which I am 99.84% sure they were. He would not have been able to bring those home from the war if they were still live.) It was one of many mementos he had on his wall of his military service, though it was certainly a scary one...
I disagree with that point in our constitution as well. I'd rather talk not about it here, but if you want to hear me rant for hours about it, PM (errr... "chat") me ;-p
Uhhh.... what?! ',',',,''',:-| No! I'd never make fun of my supervisor ',,',',:-|

Yeah, I'm not too far either, so I can't comment on the script ):-| ... and I must say, I find the voice acting/recording/editing a bit disappointing compared to other Wadjet Eye games. It is throwing me off a little.

Yes... I didn't pay much attention to the voice acting... but now you're talking about it... I find the main character's voice a bit boring... all said on the same tone... :-\ ... Well, that makes a lot of " - "...

Well... I have to leave for the moment...
Have a nice day/evening, everybody !!
Read you later !!

Me and my friends will gather today on XBL for some Call of Duty:AW and Titanfall action.
This will be a great night and waifu will play with us too.
I found myself having too much faith in humanity again, so I read this. http://www.rawstory.com/2015/05/here-are-the-5-most-appalling-christian-defenses-of-the-duggars/
Afternoon folks.

Had some laughs at some random meltdown in the forum. If you think it's mean to have fun at the expense of someone. You'd be right.
But he made it sooo easy.

Anyways, how are you all doing? enough hugs going around?

i can provide some, I've got some extra special ones...
