LaPtiteBete: Good morning, Moon, Crow and DD !! :)
How are you doing ?
**Big tired hugs with extra laziness**
Good morning, holiday Owl! *big hug*

How are you enjoying your vacation, are you having fun on the nudist beach? ;-)

I am doing okay, been better, but nothing you need to worry about. You just enjoy your holidays.

Good morning. Sorry to hear you are not feeling too good.
avatar
moonshineshadow: Wow that are a lot of challenges. Since you always seem to do everything in games, do you also go after achievements if they are ingame?
avatar
CarrionCrow: I only do everything if I have a reason to. This time, it was the Q&A chat where one of the designers mentioned how difficult the extra stuff was. Thought I was going to quit days ago, but kept going.
Achievements aren't really motivating, I get my own feeling for when I think I've completed a game.
Sounds like a good approach :-)
Never really got the reason why there need to be achievements in a game.

avatar
moonshineshadow: *get well hug* I really hope this works out for you. Can you do at least some things like reading to distract yourself from the pain a bit?
avatar
ddickinson: I can read a bit more now, which is nice. At the moment I am just relaxing and enjoying the sounds outside while I see if I can keep my breakfast down. I always find it nice and relaxing to just listen to the animals and things like that. The birds are quite vocal this morning, which is nice to listen to. I am tempted to do a bit of gardening, but I won't as I will just end up trying to do more than I should.

And the site seems to be acting up for me this morning, lots of crashes and freezing. :-(
Good choice to not tempt yourself :D
*hug*
I'm not having any problems with the website (at least for the moment)

I was tempted to go spend the daytimes on the farm, so at least I would have some company. But I know I would be way too tempted to do some work, plus my family would be running around after me and worrying too much, so it's best I just try to behave at home. :-)

Edit: It must just be a problem for my area then. Sometimes the site effects different regions and not others. It seems to be working okay, but the chat is playing up for me and sometimes the forum as well. I am sure it will be working again in no time.

CarrionCrow: Good morning, Owl lady. =)

All right here, just typing and playing the night away. How are you doing post-beach day?
Doing good here :)
But I start missing my games and my wifi connexion... and realizing that 8 days with my in laws are indeed a bit much for me... only 3 days so far... :-| they are very kind, heh, but... I'm too used to my loneliness.

Take the input of initials on an old arcade machine and distort them into a mechanism to keep people playing and clamoring for more, a reinforcement of synthetic quasi-acccomplishment. That's the achievement system.
Because why let players have that feeling when they actually put in the time and effort to beat the game when they can be spoon-fed little chunks of that feeling dozens of times a game instead.

You sound like me, only I don't have in-laws, thank the gods. Try to hang in there, distract yourself as much as you can. It'll help with the time perception, make it feel like it's flowing faster.

Has anyone played either Simon the Sorcerer 3D or Personal Nightmare, and if so how are they (are they as terrible as people say)? They are the only two I am missing from the staff picks, but I am not quite sure they are worth owning.

Perhaps you should get Simon 3D just because the reputation is so bad :D
(have not played it yet, but one day I will)

Hey there my DD !!
**Big happy to see you hugs**
There is indeed a nudist beach, but we went the other side unfortunately :-D (I could NEVER get rid of my feathers anyway, I'm far too modest)
We will go back to the beach today, and bike riding too)...
Glad to read you're doing ok at least... I hope you'll get better...... I won't worry then...
**Big get better soon extra comforting hug**

Thanks I'm fine but busy occasionally.

I thought about that, to get the game just to see how bad it is. But with my already too big backlog, I am not sure I would get around to testing the game anytime soon.

Hello!

I knew it was a nudist beach. And I also knew you would try to deny it, just like a certain someone else who went on a nudist holiday. :-)

The beach and bike riding sounds nice. Is the weather nice and sunny for you? Are you having lots of fun with your family and having lots of relaxation?

*big thank you hug*
