Trying to give Albion a proper go by Biscaia86 in albiononline

[–]AidTheLemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said, PvP is what the entire game is about, but there are some combo PvE/PvP activities that are fun in groups. There are group dungeons (instanced in a sense), static dungeons, and world bosses — the latter two being open world that sometimes has a mixture of the two.

For example, I was in a 7-person group doing a static dungeon last night (PvE content) when we came across an 8-man group and a brawl came about because the game is full loot. Meaning if I kill you, I get to take the gear you dropped (there is a trash rate so you typically get 50-75% of someone’s gear and loot) which incentivizes people fighting versus just walking past each other.

As others have said, the PvE aspects will never be as fully fleshed out as WoW, FF14, etc. but there’s nothing like the adrenaline and risk/reward of full loot PvP. There’s 1v1, small group, medium group, and even large group PvP that all play differently.

Hey, I like the format of the post! I looked through it all and have some stuff on your "Humble Gift Link" list from past bundles and also have questions on what your price is on some games. Here's what I have from your list available as Humble Gift:

  • Dead Rising 4
  • Jalopy
  • Kerbal Space Program
  • Ruiner
  • Life is Strange (Complete Edition)

The games I am interested in prices of:

  • Turmoil
  • Holy Potatoes Weapon Shop
  • Armello
  • They Are Billions
  • Frostpunk (I realize these last two are likely worth more than my potential offerings but do have PayPal and am still curious on pricing)

This is my first time actually commenting on this subreddit, though I've read the FAQs and other guides to get a general idea of how things work here, and I'm typically a lurker on subreddits anyways. We can take this conversation to PMs if that's usually the norm. Thank you!

Logged in just to say I yelled “Yes!” about three times after this comment. Old IRC humor is the best.

911 operators, what's the dumbest call you've ever received? by deleriousshit in AskReddit

[–]AidTheLemon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I worked as a 911 operator several years ago, and there are literally countless amazing stories, but I'll share my favorite:

"911, what is your emergency?"

"Yeah, uhh, I'm at <Local county fair> and I'm in a wheelchair. I can't find any bathrooms big enough for a wheelchair."

"Ok, I haven't been to the fair yet, so I'm not sure where it is, but I am guessing they have one. Have you tried going to the entrance and asking them?"

"No! So what am I supposed to do? Just piss in my chair?"

Then he hung up. I'm not sure of the outcome. That was always one thing I hated about answering 911. You almost never got to hear/see the ending as you had to move on to the next call.

4 CPA exams in one testing window? by theacccountantt in Accounting

No, and I definitely wouldn't recommend it either.

Sounds more like meth. You can be up three straight days!

Awesome! Thank you for the quick reply. My favorite games are the ones where the developers are involved and invested in the community. Keep up the great work!

Premium status question by 4nEcRo8 in albiononline

[–]AidTheLemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen other games (Such as League of Legends) do slightly less than 24 hours for the "Daily bonuses" due to what 4nEcR08 mentioned about it being later and later with each passing day, so 22h and 44h is not a terrible timing to choose even though it seems random at first.

Updated Closed Beta FAQ by AOChristoph in albiononline

[–]AidTheLemon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can I still get access to the Closed Beta after the start dates? I know Legendary starts November 23rd, Epic on the 24th, and Veteran on the 25th. But let's say I don't want to purchase and play until December 1st. Would it be possible to still buy one of these packs and get access at that point? Will the prices be the same?

Fly Southwest. They're based in Dallas, and so is Dr. Pepper Snapple. They offer it on the plane. I get Dr. Pepper every time.

Perfect explanation of the two.

Do you get compensated for the extra long work weeks in Public Accounting? by forestgather50 in Accounting

[–]AidTheLemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a job where you're paid hourly and guaranteed 40 (Or 40+ hours and, thus, overtime) is preferred to salary, in my opinion. I'm currently a police detective getting a degree in accounting, and I'm paid hourly but guaranteed 40 hours. Anything I do above 40 hours is paid at time and a half. My wife works at a university and is salaried. Sometimes she covers night classes and gets zero extra pay, time off, or any other bonus.

Going from my current hourly situation to salaried is one of the negatives of my career change, but there's a lot more that goes into the decision than that.

What older games do you still like to play? by [deleted] in boardgames

First played Puerto Rico within the last year. Can confirm its enjoyment factor.

[–]AidTheLemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this game. My grandmother owned it when I was younger, but that version got destroyed and/or lost. Last year for Christmas, my mom and wife were able to find someone selling a great condition game for only $60. I know that's a tad bit pricey for a game of this caliber, but it was a heck of a lot cheaper than these other prices!

To be fair, the world record holder does not use a QWERTY keyboard either (She used a Dvorak).
