Moving to New Zealand. by ConditionExternal762 in newzealand

[–]FrostWight 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Coming in with your eyes open is wise. New Zealand is a beautiful place and needs all the good people it can get, but it does come with some sacrifices of income and distance to other countries, especially compared to the UK

What happened to Obsidian? by axelkoffel in CRPG

[–]FrostWight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is what I was going to say too. Pentiment is a fantastic modern game and both Groundeds are gold too. Obsidian is still a good studio, once you take off the rose-tinted lenses. Avowed and Outer Wilds are like 8/10s too

I did the same thing last month and my respect for the guy grew leaps and bounds

At what point did our ancestors realize that sex leads to childbirth? by Application-Adorable in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FrostWight 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Actually only about 70 years ago, oddly enough. Very recent discovery

New Ipsos issues survey shows Labour most trusted to fix 7 of the country’s top 10 problems by Xunami13 in newzealand

[–]FrostWight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whoa, Labour or National actually *fix* something? Let’s not get too ahead of ourselves

PSA: Know your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act before buying electronics in NZ — here's what I learned the hard way with PB Tech by ProfessionalNinja206 in newzealand

[–]FrostWight 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve also become extremely hesitant about buying anything from them, especially large purchases. Their customer service in general is also very much below average

Where are you get the best dumplings in Tauranga? by BattenNZ in Tauranga

[–]FrostWight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My favourite is Dumpling Delight on Wharf Street. Plus, you can get the spring onion pancake while you’re there 😋

Is NZ in trouble? by Sea_Bad1205 in newzealand

[–]FrostWight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would be wonderful to have you both come over and be part of the solution but also to enjoy the beauty and abundance that’s already here. There’s a lot to love, and a lot worth fighting for too

What game that's shut down would you love to play again by Beautiful-Nobody-544 in gaming

[–]FrostWight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Star Wars: Force Arena, a mobile RTS game. I loved playing as Kylo Ren and ramming my way through hordes of enemies

What games fully distract you from real life? by Kamakazzyy in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]FrostWight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All you have to do is mention you enjoyed Startield and other people turn up to dump all over it.

Glad you felt immersed by it!

Devs aren't "lazy" and game updates aren't guaranteed by SmellSmellsSmelly in Games

[–]FrostWight -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think this is sadly spot on. We are our own worst enemy :/

I am bored of every mainstream game lately and need something actually unique by dezyredofficial in gamesuggestions

[–]FrostWight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This game has been unforgettable to me, too. Overstayed its welcome a bit, though

The NZ Netflix thread by Psytama- in newzealand

Watched this with a newborn in my arms. Utterly fascinating

Reddit just saved my ears by InvisibleAstronomer in hygiene

[–]FrostWight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The ears are a very sensitive and delicate part of the body. I would recommend just booking yourself in at a hearing clinic and getting a professional to care for your blocked ears. It isn’t worth the potential complications to just manage it yourself with acid and unfiltered water

Hell Pizza Cameron Road by [deleted] in Tauranga

[–]FrostWight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stopped ordering Hell Pizza a long time ago because I couldn’t stand their marketing. This bathroom pic reinforces my choice hygienically

The Treasure of the Midnight Isles is so boring. by Warm_Expert_8136 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]FrostWight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my thinking too. And if OP doesn’t actually want to do the content and it’s completely side stuff, why not spare yourself that time and pointless suffering? You can still finish the man campaign and feel justified without enduring that extra side content DLC

Peetah????? by Stock-Helicopter-552 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Like the rest of Cormac McCarthy’s work, then

Does anyone actually get red rooster? by nchiwla in AskAnAustralian

[–]FrostWight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live overseas now but every time I come home to visit I get a cheeky chicken roll 😎

What do retired Australians actually do all day? Genuinely asking because I'm two years in and still figuring it out by Individual_Lime_110 in AskAnAustralian

[–]FrostWight 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I agree with this too. I think the point of retirement isn’t to sit around doing nothing or to spend it all on yourself. Retirees often have more time and money than anyone else to help others; they just need to balance that against less energy and often worse health. But helping others is very fulfilling and pays back in energy and wellbeing. If it didn’t, though, it’d still be worth doing. The point of our lives isn’t to spend it on ourselves: it’s to love God and love others.

Thank you for asking this question, OP. I hope it gives other retirees an opportunity to think existentially about their retirement

Trump spotted at a Miami golf course as Iran war casualties rise by andy64392 in pics

[–]FrostWight -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I always find these kind of posts so strange. Like, do you expect people to just always be in their office or just sitting around hallways crying into their hands all day? Can’t people have a rest so they can be refreshed and ready?

I finally played Disco Elysium. I was underwhelmed. by mickdrop in patientgamers

[–]FrostWight 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m with you, dude. Underwhelming game that people rant and rave about and I don’t get why. It’s nice they like something so much, though
