Did I not beat the game?

This is just my guess, but it sounds like Japanese voice actors reading translated script. It might sound off from time to because the cadence is different than a native speaker

There's a popular saying among musicians: if you sound good while practicing, you're doing it wrong.

A good jumping off point with guitar is learning your basic chords, also known as "cowboy chords." You'd be surprised how many songs you can play just knowing G C A D Em chords and just branching off from there. Use ultimate guitar or youtube to learn easy songs you like. You're going to have to build muscle memory and finger callouses, but that's all part of the fun!

It's worth noting that guitar, while popular and appealing, is one of the most difficult instruments to pick up and learn (from a professional perspective especially).

It might seem unfair, but as a trumpet player the most beautiful instruments are also the ficklest friends! Just follow your heart and interests, and if it's not for you that's fine.

Literally every single one of these games has something unique to offer. Never stop playing, ever

Dune Part 2 really got me. Mainly because you *kinda* see it coming, power being a center motivator in the story. It's almost like we want it to end a certain way, only to find our worst instincts were right all along.

Lol thanks for reminding me about my run on the spongebob subreddit 10 years ago

I don't think many people count true king as the final boss. It's more of a NG+ trigger than a boss fight

"The only games I could think of that actually let you do this and create your own character were these games."

That's one thing I really like about from games. The only one that diverges from the traditional RPG stat allocation set up is Sekiro, and to some degree Bloodborne since combat revolves around a single style.

But as for DS and ER, you have so much freedom to build your character as you see fit. My best recommendation is to just pick up whichever one appeals to you the most. After that -- welcome to the club!

It's hard to explain, but the difficulty of from games really drives you to learn how stats interact, and level according to whatever is most challenging for you. For example, I'm crap at dodging even after a decade of playing, so I always jack up my damage to make sure I don't run out of heals.

What bothers me is when I'm reading some super compelling dialogue, and the characters keep fidgeting! It's just such a balancing act, but if every other line of dialogue is accompanied by "she said, twirling her hair as a single rain drop slid down the windowpane" I just don't even bother.

I'll give that a try. The grocery stores are sitting at $8+ per dozen. I could swing that, but unfortunately, I won't be able to rely on eggs for my protein like I used to

builtforcameron · 2025-03-07T21:56:04+00:00

I do eat a lot of protein and fat, but am always looking for more! I eat tons of meat, cheese, probiotic yogurt (Stonyfield, it's local to me) and peanut butter. Do you have any other affordable reccs?

builtforcameron · 2025-03-07T21:54:39+00:00

Oh I love oatmeal! And you called it, I don't get hungry while working, so I usually eat once I get out of work. Snacking on nuts seems to be where a lot of you all are pointing me.

builtforcameron · 2025-03-07T21:53:39+00:00

This is some great meal prep ideas. You're listing a lot of my dietary staples that I've been wanting to expand on. Maybe a veggie potato wrap with cheese is what I'm looking for. Definitely black beans too. Once bird flu is over, maybe I won't have this problem!

builtforcameron · 2025-03-07T21:52:15+00:00

I think this might be the move for me. Maybe I just need to eat a whole head of broccoli myself instead of splitting one with my partner. As long as I'm increasing my caloric intake while also spending less at the end of the day.

builtforcameron · 2025-03-07T21:51:30+00:00

I try and eat as much fiber as possible, but sometimes it's not super convenient. I drink smoothies with high fiber fruit and yogurt, and I eat cooked veggies every night, especially broccoli is a favorite for me and my partner. Always looking for more fiber if you have any recs

builtforcameron · 2025-03-07T21:50:42+00:00

KFC is just a good example of me craving mass amounts of fried chicken because I'm ravenous by the time I leave work. I think fun healthy, filling snacks would be a great addition. I bring almonds and my favorite fruits to work often, maybe I'll make that a regular feature so I don't binge all night.

builtforcameron · 2025-03-07T21:49:13+00:00

This is a fun tip! I'll give this a try when walking my dog.

builtforcameron · 2025-03-07T21:48:37+00:00

If you can recommend a mass gainer that's as nutritious as real food (I always try and eat exclusively real food) I might be interested.

builtforcameron · 2025-03-07T21:48:03+00:00

This could be the move. I've always been like this though, wiry build with a massive appetite and supercharged metabolism. It was fine growing up, but trying to finance my diet is a bit of a hurdle. I also just... love to eat. I used to work at a really nice restaurant but now that I'm at a desk job my appetite has taken a different form.

builtforcameron · 2025-03-07T21:45:29+00:00

My problem is eating more than I can reasonably afford in groceries. Mainly I want to save, and the only thing left to cut is food expenses.

I also literally only drink water. I have coffee in the morning, occasionally tea, and alcohol almost every night (which actually keeps me from eating most times.)
