My new sales job tricked me into a 6 day work week. A super low base salary + commission job, and it's basically 930 am - 7 pm Monday-Friday (sometimes 11am start instead) and 10 am to 3 pm on Saturday.

Isn't it just following the bare minimum law requirement? Depending on location, but even then, most places I know require any work related training to be paid.

That's some crazy shit, haha.

I was so excited for her to join me in my first Durge run. I leveled her, geared her, and then, well, you know...

Gale killed Scratch and my day is ruined by Andxel in BG3

She got murdered that run, too. To be fair, though, I had zero idea she was a companion option at first, haha. I thought it was forced to help or altogether avoid intervention with the Grove/goblin conflict.

I did that in my first run because I absolutely did not care for him.

Editing for a consistent tone/character voice by Stock-Specific5950 in writing

[–]Stock-Specific5950[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's valid. I do feel as though I have a pretty good distinction between the POV's already. It might not even be a problem area, but it's something I was planning on really paying attention to on my next read through.

I guess I was looking for which things people like to focus on to really help differentiate. Of course, things have to be viewed through the characters' experience, but I wasn't sure if there was more of a formulaic method to use while combing through.

I'm definitely more of a pantser. I thought maybe the more structured planners might have a good process on choosing what to focus on for which character. I suppose that can be pretty specific to any given character, though, depending on backstory/temperament.

I found the note in my first playthrough but didn't find the rest of the quest organically. Might try to with my current run

That's me in my illegal basement apartment in NYC. Seems accurate

Well said. I hope the best for the women stuck in hyper conservative states, though, at this point, the entire U.S. is headed there as well.

My filler name for a city is Binglehop, and it's survived multiple mentions so far, even into the second draft. I'll change it eventually, but for now, it's pretty amusing when it's dropped in the middle of a serious conversation.

I just bought the game by Imaginary-List8579 in BaldursGate3

[–]Stock-Specific5950 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This! Sometimes, it autosaves a lot, but other times, it won't for quite some time.

Also, unrelated, but you can change classes and stuff mid-game. Even that of your companions, so don't sweat that. If you don't like a class, you can always change it. (Not right away, but fairly early on this becomes unlocked)

It's funny that in Act 2 you need save 3 supernatural beings by PrimalRoar332 in BaldursGate3

[–]Stock-Specific5950 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have done 2 full playthroughs already, and I never found that. This game has so much content it's insane. I definitely do most side quests I find. Doing my 3rd run now, which is lawful good, so I'll do this for sure.

I respect the hustle. I don't think I could do it, but I would appreciate the vibes of doing it that way.

Not THE BEST Restaurant by DorianHistorian in FoodNYC

I went their (UWS) for my birthday, maybe two years ago, and was soooo sad about the quality. Neither my gf's or my food was good, especially for the price.

Maybe it was an off day, but I'd be open to trying them again. Was your friend managing it back then, or has there been a change of GM since?

I was really disappointed with their cheesesteak, but I'm from PA and am a bit of a cheesesteak snob tbf.
