I’ve played both of those, and I really enjoyed Talos 2 since it mostly just fed you lore while you were trying to do a puzzle, but don’t ask me what the story was because I couldn’t tell ya.

I didn’t mean I couldn’t connect with the story in just those games, but in games in general. So when I talk about a game, I don’t really put much weight into my thoughts on the story, just the mechanics.

They removed the options to skip battle animations for the newer games. There’s an option that removes cutscenes, but that doesn’t affect anything in battles like the ten minute long terastallizations.

Yeah, my wife and I like going through archives to find shows that didn’t age well, then show those scenes to friends for laughs.

Was watching some 1940s Looney Tunes, and you expect and see racism, which makes it predictable, but every once in a while, they get in a joke or bit that catches everyone by surprise.

Here’s a scene that took place in the middle of a nice episode about National Parks: https://youtu.be/p0wtlI8qF1Ehttps://youtu.be/p0wtlI8qF1E

Yeah that’s the way to go, sadly. Funny enough I was eventually able to enjoy Pokémon through the fan game Pokerogue then a RuneScape rom hack called pokescape

Pokemon - having to watch animations and not being able to speed anything up killed my interest

Skyrim - tried a melee run recently and the combat feels like you’re whacking air

The legend of Zelda - played Tears and the story and puzzles were a bit too kid friendly

Doom - I really tried to like it but I felt like I didn’t get anything out of it. It doesn’t scratch that itch I get out of FromSoft’s Souls games where I want to learn a boss’s patterns and die to it a million times.

In general I don’t think I can do story games anymore

seems like magic

Hey dawg, it’s bad practice to use magic vars or nums

Pie weights should be easy to buy in stores and probably aren’t made of lead lol

I lived in an apartment without an ac and I also wasn’t allowed to install a window ac.

I ended up buying a portable ac which got the job done well enough. They’re not perfect but they’re miles better than open windows with box fans.

Pepperoni rolls - West Virginia

Adobo or milkfish - Philippines

Dirty rice - southern states

You guys don’t understand how hard it is to be a pm.

Jira changed “issues” to “work items” and to recover from that trauma I took another two weeks off.

Probably focus on finishing a project. I myself have a graveyard of unfinished shit but it’s not a great look if you’ve never finished something.

Starting a project is always the fun part but if you quit something the second you hit a wall you won’t be pushing yourself to actually learn. You also probably wouldn’t be much use to someone trying to maintain and develop their project.

I was a dev for ten+ years then pivoted to pm during Covid

Didn’t MKBHD launch some wallpaper app for $12 a month? I heard about it and just figured he was another tech YouTuber who lost touch

Like what kind of frustration? I feel like I don’t stew on things and it’s pretty rare to be mad about something the next day.

For better or worse I find it hard to care about things that are out of my control

Let’s not beat around the bush we’re both adults here. Using charged language is fun but you gotta own it when you do it.

Typical answer.

In what world is telling someone “typical answer” not a cunt response in a post about being civil

As someone who has spent their whole life fighting against their hair wanting to look feathered I just want to say that I’d be killing it in the 70s

Ugly people make music all the time.

You really gonna tell me Ed Sheeran is good looking? Post Malone?
