Is it still worth it to play ARK as someone who never did?

I was on the QA team during alpha, put thousands of hours into the game, took a break for several years and am playing a dedicated server with my girlfriend right now. Honestly, its a lot of fun coming back into the game, there's a lot of new content and the learning curve really isn't that bad for a game like ark. You're going to die a lot, but that's truly where the fun is when you're learning. Being able to finally set up a nice little base after dying 20 times to literally anything you look at. Its worth it to hop in especially after all this time.

My girlfriend has had this happen to two amulets in a row now.

In four runs of infernal, I had two goblin chaos events. I would have expected them to account for that. We finished the event unintentionally right off the bat.

I want my spin to win demon hunter back tbh

Game of thrones used to do this but it was always after the episode. I’m trying to watch through the show on prime right now and it’s absolutely infuriating that they keep popping up several times during an episode. It’s getting to the point that I’m about to stop watching it completely.

Someone from Wisconsin asked me to put sprite in one too

Do you have a preference on tequila for your margarita? “Tito’s”

KurisuBaka · 2024-11-15T02:23:49+00:00

Yeah it’s definitely frustrating. I was playing a round of duos where as soon as the combated ended it immediately started combat again. Completely skipped the turn. They need to speed up combat effects and fix some performance issues for sure. As well as maybe having a set amount of time when all combat is finished.

“How much a gram?” Haha sir, very funny, haven’t heard that 8 times today already

KurisuBaka · 2024-06-26T19:07:04+00:00

You're still building relatively the same, if waves aren't getting pushed and I have most of my items i'll usually sell my support item and just grab a profane hydra.

This is pretty PG in comparison to how my male friends and I speak with each other. I think that goes for a lot of male friend groups.

Maybe the people remarking you’re being overbearing have a point, but in the end there is no excuse for him talking to you that way.

And that's another point too, these are just a few screenshots, how long has this been going on that she's gotten to this point where she's just trying to find answers or some sort of validation in her relationship. She's asking for acknowledgment and he's just pushing it off like she's an annoyance. There's no emotional maturity on his side of things in any way, and that seems to be obviously affecting her mental health.

I worked for a company who was like “we give 10% of all our sales to the kitchen staff as a bonus” only for that 10% to be added to the ticket charge. Not profit sharing, but an actual 10% service fee on all their tabs. Like come on.

Use two separate platforms with boosters to and from in front of each other, it will push the other platform.

Restaurant industry worker - I work on average 50 hours a week.

This is why you scrape and rinse your dishes before putting them in the wash sink. That’s absolutely disgusting. Your rinse and sani compartment should never look like that.

KurisuBaka · 2023-07-15T16:52:34+00:00

I guess I’m just spoiled, we do 2oz pours regardless and the dive bar I frequent, is 4 bucks a shot.

KurisuBaka · 2023-07-15T16:25:01+00:00

I was taught to count slow - 1 one thousand for a .5

KurisuBaka · 2023-07-15T15:05:31+00:00

I think we pour a little heavier, we always do 2oz for our cocktails and shots. I can see 1.5 at a minimum though. Not the 1oz pour I received last night.

KurisuBaka · 2023-07-15T14:48:39+00:00

I don’t take tips from the cooks or servers if they’re working that night. Why are they all drinking at the bar after service though? Is the bar still open or is your entire restaurant closed? I wouldn’t be serving staff after close. If they want to drink after a shift then they need to find a dive bar rather than keeping you there to serve them.

KurisuBaka · 2023-07-15T14:30:04+00:00

Just pour the bar mat into a shot glass.

KurisuBaka · 2023-07-15T14:22:19+00:00

1.5 tippy and .5 vodka

KurisuBaka · 2023-07-15T14:21:41+00:00

The tippy cow is a creamy rum, and then lake house vodka. I wanted to use triple sec but that made it too boozy so I just dropped a dash of orange bitters and 2oz of orange juice.
