superstande: there you go! lift the spirits! :)
What's being lifted right now is my car. It's standing on just one wheel.
It's really best not to watch as they fix your car. I just saw them changing some brake pads and they had to use a hammer that didn't have any reason to feel jealous of Thor's.
Hey, everyone. =)

Hopefully your days are going at least fairly well.

Howdy! ...this is my new greeting style :)
Doing alright, trying to relax and charge batteries to start gaming a bit more.
*slightly overwhelmed with choices*
Satellite Reign looks okay, but the city streets just seem a bit... too unpopulated... maybe I'm judging it wrong.

Are things good there?

Two brand new tires and the hatchback can be opened once more again.
All I'm waiting now is for the punchline to this day long joke.

Starmaker: Dude: How come you don't get downrepped when you say steam sucks, but I do? I can't figure out whether I've been targeted by script kiddies or people just hate me.

Me: Dude, if you can't possibly tell whether you're being downrepped every damn day, or just when you bash steam, I'd say this right here is a problem.
Wat?
Some very nice ladies came by to change their radio.
Once they left what followed was an immediate appreciation of the values of feminity in ways that only a car mechanic is able to. I won't attempt to reproduce it here, since it would invariably be lost in translation. Suffice to say it was lyrical.

:) sounds like you'll be punching holes in your tires yourself if that keeps up, just so you can visit this magical fix shop again :p

It looks enjoyable, but there's too much other stuff to grab first to spend 24 dollars on a single game.

GreenDamsel: We don't differ that much then. I enjoy FPS as well and Witcher 3 is easily my favourite Game of all time. Just that Open world and 4x stuff I can't stand. I play RPGs more to have a nice narrative rather than a nice world to be in. If I want an "open" world I play Tabletops as a Player or DM :D
Well Witcher 3 is kind of "open world" too. :-)
But I can concur that it's one of the very view games that manage to combine open world gameplay with a compelling story. The other example would be (for me) Morrowind, though it achieves this in a different way: Throwing you in the cold water and leaving it up you to make sense of all the things happening.

But while I really love open world games just for the hiking/sightseeing aspect (I like GTA and it's gang members too), I am also fond of densely told stories, like in i.e. Planescape: Torment (also one of my favourites of all time) or a good adventure game.
The punchline was delivered.
It was below the belt.
It's probably not a sign of good health to be talking to a recording of a Twitch stream. Still doing it, though.
Apparently I remember enough of Fallout Tactics to get irrationally impatient at a new player learning the mechanics.

Yesterday a twitch streamer spent almost 5 minutes in front of a door because he couldn't fathom the idea that a videogame key might be useful on more than one door.
Then went off to imply that it was the game's fault for not labelling the keys properly.
Screaming is the least you can do.

It just struck me that the person was very new with the game. They had plenty of energy, they were interested, they were trying, all of which are good things. Maybe they were just used to the more hand holding style of a lot of newer games. Pretty sure Tactics came out over 10 years ago.

Well, to be fair, how many keys do you have that fit more than one door? I only have one and that's a front/back door thing, so unless that was also the case in this game, I can see how one might be somewhat confused.. :P
