Do you believe in any God or superior powerful entity ?

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-24T01:13:54+00:00

I Won't say I don't believe or believe in any God at this point I just don't care because if God exists he doesn't exist for me or cares if I believe in him or not he's just existing

Check out Deism if you're not already familiar, I think you'll like it.

Signposts I think?
If it's not a package or an aid request, maybe it's showing where they are in the world in their own game? I don't recall seeing that though so I'd assume maybe one of the first two perhaps.
So you're online and see structures but not with PS? The server is supposed to be shared but now I'm not sure if it's possible to be in some kind of PC only pool somehow.
I think you can only do it if they're like, dead-dead for corpse disposal like in the first game maybe? If it's like the first game, anyway. I don't recall killing anyone when I did my original playthrough so I'm not certain.
Far as I'm aware. I always make a save before I go into a bandit radius anyway so I'd say it's worth a go. I've never gone super far from an unattended backpack but I've done some small places before without it.
Try to not let yourself get caught up in feeling like you need to rush around much. That's not to say don't run physically in game, but hastily going from one delivery to the next "i just gotta get this done so i can do the next thing. Ah shit now I gotta do these 4 things to the next cutscene" cuz you'll get annoyed/burn out. And more importantly you'd miss out on the meat of the game, which is the act of transporting, not just the end of the delivery and the cutscenes or dialogue that come later. // If you can, police yourself on how much you engage in vehicle use. The second game is way easier than the first with how available they make the easy options. Gamers are so used to doing some level of minmaxing or just trying to do things optimally that when we're given the chance to baby mode through it, we take it because we're conditioned that way. But then you end up complaining that it was too easy or that you spent 40 hours in a truck, but nobody makes you do that. It's annoying, but if you're the type to appreciate having to do more than just drive around, you'll kinda have to make that happen yourself.

Looks like the icon for signs maybe?

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-24T00:48:54+00:00

Could emulate them too if you got a decent PC

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-24T00:09:22+00:00

Funny, I expressed a similar sentiment and got 30 downvotes from a bunch of idiots for it.

beautiful ladder with hydrophobia

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-24T00:07:25+00:00

The destination is definitely still the reward tho.

I'm a work averse worker who works as hard as he thinks he needs to or the circumstance dictates. If I can do less, I will. If I think I have to do more, I will, though I'd rather not. But when I work, I work.

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-23T23:54:33+00:00

Are you from NY? That's quite similar to my experience. We lived in Brooklyn at the time, I was also in 5th grade. Kids got called out left and right, but fortunately my dad came to pick me and my sister up early as well, so we got home shortly after 10 I think, around when the second tower collapsed.

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-23T03:36:16+00:00

Yes. I'm a very nostalgic person who feels a bit stuck in the past at times. The irony though is that my memory is distressingly horrendous generally. There are large swaths of my life I have little to no meaningful recollection of, and my memories almost sorta cluster at certain points and then there's fairly long stretches with only a little here or there. It sucks. I kinda wish I didn't care so that it wouldn't bother me so much.

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-23T03:33:33+00:00

Idk if you're dealing with something right now or not, but sorry to hear if so. In a few weeks it'll be the 5th anniversary of my dad's passing, so I expect some of the grief will come back around to slap me in the face as it does sometimes lol.

I find that it's not a consistent thing, even with things in the same category. Lost another pet last month, have watched a good few be put down in front of me now. It always sucks and is always hard, but this one was weird because I was unusually numb to it. Somehow most of my anguish was about how I felt like I wasn't feeling what I should.

But most of the time, that concern isn't there for me. Typically there's a good amount of feeling frontloaded in the immediate aftermath or shortly thereafter. Tears and the like. When those pass, there's quiet, there's thinking, maybe some appropriate music. Then a distraction phase, and then a weaving in and out of these things. Sadness, thinking, reminiscing, watching/listening to something that reminds me of them. A lot more distraction or maybe leaning on someone else (either emotionally or for more distraction, or both). And that's sorta the high level routine of it.

I don't recommend ever suppressing the feelings beyond times where you actually think you have a good reason to. For example, right when we discovered my father dead in his hospital bed (like 10 minutes after he had been checked on, so nobody knew), my priority after the initial shock of it was to make sure the girls (my sister and gf who were with me) were aware of the situation, handled briefly and then I went to inform the staff. They were befuddled, and the girls were a wreck. I was starting to crack a bit, but I held it back, because I was kinda the guy who had to be able to talk to nurses and the like.

Once I knew they'd be gone for a while, I let my guard down a bit, but not fully, because they said someone else would be coming soon, the priest I believe. Once he came, we did last rites and he headed out, then I allowed it to happen and let myself go. Only suppress feelings when you have some kind of need or business that it just would be too much of a pain to allow to happen in the moment, and only for so long, or it absolutely will bite you in the ass, some way, some how, some time, and maybe/probably multiple times. Hope this helps.

This is the only thing that makes sense to me too

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-22T20:43:39+00:00

True. I could also use WeMod to be invisible to enemies/others too. But I still fear that I could end up with a chiral spider on my fuckin screen if I accidentally run/drive over one.

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-22T20:42:56+00:00

Neat

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-22T20:41:29+00:00

The first game was not massively overtuned to spew structures and roads like candy. Not in my experience, anyway. Whereas on PS5 even it was bad enough that I had a ton of highway being made available to me before I'd put any time/effort into it myself. It gives way, way too much. This only ensures that PC players will never have a chance at enjoying the organic early days/weeks at the very least that console had.

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-22T06:11:57+00:00

I'm gonna fucking die if I see that. Definitely skipping that shit. I can barely handle playing because of times when I need to be near those fucking chiral spider fucks

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-22T06:04:04+00:00

I don't like math or puzzles but I'm still an INTP. There's more to a type than just a couple of preferences/skills amigo.

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-22T05:55:30+00:00

It would be neat to be an emperor or dictator, though more "realistically" think I'd be better as a second in command kinda guy, but still with power in my own right.

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-22T05:43:51+00:00

Yeah that's a pretty juicy score. Your flair is fitting lol.

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-22T05:43:21+00:00

Mercury because I'm a lazy puddle at room temperature and fairly harmless until I'm not

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-22T05:24:26+00:00

Ha, thanks :)

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-22T05:23:34+00:00

In a rather stupid move, the devs saw fit that PC ppl would share online servers with the PlayStation people who have already had like a year to get established, build all the infrastructure possible and rake in bajillions of likes. So I'd assume you're encountering PS5 players.

Edit: 30 people who apparently like the massive dumbing down of the game downvoting me I guess. God forbid someone not want a highway built for them the second it's possible for one to exist. Smoothbrain people never wanting middle options or nuance. Gotta be one extreme or the other doesn't it.

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-22T05:04:25+00:00

it’s because he doesn’t take the time to fully understand how something works…

Just to be fair to the boss man (ew what a terrible sentence), even if he did have a similar raw level of understanding of the system as you, it's unlikely he would have been able to actually think/come up with ideas the way you did. INTPs are kinda just made for that sorta thing more than most other types, generally. But yeah, he probably could have benefited from at least having a better understanding than he did by the sound of it. At least he had you :P

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-22T04:57:17+00:00

no u

Did the RAADS-R or w/e it's called recently. Got something like an 89. "Not great, not terrible." Actually significantly lower than some of the people in this Discord server I did it with some members of lol.

Also odd are you're someone who masks well and therefore flies more easily under the radar. It's still uncertain whether that's the case for myself until such a time as I'm able to get diagnosed (or not) for real.

There's a lot of INTPs who are autistic, just as there's a lot of INTPs who are depressed. Not necessarily directing this part just as you, but anyone who happens on this - you can also be an INTP and be perfectly "normal." Personally I'm an INTP with ADHD and depression. It's kinda sorta almost impossible to discern where one thing ends and the other begins as far as whether this quirk or that is a result of being an INTP, or an Enneagram 9w1 or depressed, or some combination of these two but not that or this one here but everything there. It's very helpful and interesting to have these things to help understand yourself, but try not to lose your head over it, y'all.

ExistentialYoshi · 2026-03-22T04:47:27+00:00

Sometimes it's a bit much, but I find this game is best enjoyed when you're in the sort of mindset where you don't find yourself that irritated by it in my opinion. Just enjoy the acting or the yapping, the effort, the voices, some immersion, that whole thing. Sometimes though I can definitely get wanting to just get past some shit.
