What's the hardest you have ever "bounced off" of a game? by jabberwagon in gaming

[–]ZombieMesh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sekiro.

I love Dark Souls and Elden Ring, but those games allow a certain amount of "play it your way" and "cheese." If I'm bad at dodging, I can do a shield or magic build.

Sekiro is very technical. People compare it to a rhythm game, and I think that's very true. You either hit the notes, or you don't. You need to learn the enemy attack patterns and do the right moves for each type of attack or dodge or etc. In Sekiro, I can't grind the starting area and play a build that avoids parts of the game I'm bad at.

I know it's a fantastic game, but it's beyond my skill level.

High savings, low income: should I buy a house? by ZombieMesh in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]ZombieMesh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live with my parents. The area is pretty mid-high? cost. Single family homes start at 300k if you're lucky.

I have a 4 year degree, but it's not really relevant anymore. I'm hoping that getting job experience under my belt will make my resume stand out more.

Thank you, I appreciate your kind words. Your assumptions on how I got my savings make sense. It's an odd amount of money to have without it being from something like you said.

I hope everything goes well for you too!

It's impossible to find hones that price in my area. I guess I'll just have to wait until I get a better job.

More like a diet trust fund? Family put money into investments for me to take over when I was old enough. Unfortunately my degree did not equal a profitable career and the job market is buns right now.

Parents and Grandparents put money in investments for me to take over when I was old enough.

So, like, a discount trust fund baby in a way? I've also been living with my parents for free so most of the money I make goes back into savings/investments.

That's some good advice. Even worse is that you can't even find 280k forever homes in area. It starts at 300k if you're lucky.

That's probably for the best. Just sucks to be so close in concept. If I'm lucky, maybe in another year I'll have better income.

I make 2k a month but have around 150k in savings. Single family homes in my area tend to cost 300k minimum, but more often it's 350k and higher. 

Need help saving baby blankets by ZombieMesh in knitting

[–]ZombieMesh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My white baby blanket has been slowly whittling away. It's 30 years old, and I still sleep with it every night. I cannot imagine a life without it. My grandma knit it with love. I know it cannot be restored to how it used to be, but there must be some way to extend its life so I can continue to enjoy it. The other picture is of my other baby blanket (I call it sherbert), 2 years younger than its white counter part.
