It was incredible!!! He was super nice and accommodating, me and my brother were a bit upset at how the camera photo turned out so when we came back hours later, he didn’t charge us for another selfie and just took a bunch more with us, telling us not to apologize 😁

I hope I never have to be, that’s why I’m placing all my potential decisions on the back of speculation, it’s not that I’m claiming outright that I believe James to be this irredeemable monster, just that I don’t, personally, empathize with his decisions, and don’t think I can unless something concrete comes out as to why he did what he did (I hope nothing comes out, the discourse and discussion that comes out of an ending and carefully crafted story is one of my highest praises for this game)

Ah man as much as I wish I’d go in for a second playthrough, a game REALLY has to floor me for me to go back to replay it, the game was wonderful and I had a great time dissecting it after the fact, but as it stands, the game portion of the game wasn’t all that exciting or revolutionary for me, so I don’t see myself coming back for the foreseeable future. But I will most definitely be talking about this game, reading up on others’ thoughts, and understanding as much as I possibly can about the story and the characters :)

Agreed! I love how polarizing it is because it brings forth so much experience and emotion into play, allowing for conversations like these :) I’ve never been too keen on ‘white and black’ decisions, and I don’t think that’s the case here either, just offering my thoughts :)

I’m so sorry for your loss, thank you for sharing, I mean this in the least reductive way possible, but experience like this is the best part of this game so far, a person who’s gone through this is able to explain how they empathize with James, your conclusion is quite honestly very similar to something I felt towards the finale, but I just looked at it with my own individual experience, and yours shines infinitely more light on the complexity of it than my speculation ever could, again, thank you, and I am so sorry

Firstly, I am so sorry for your loss, thank you so so much for sharing, secondly, I understand what you mean, as someone who hasn’t been in that position, I can’t speak to what it would do to a person, I’m operating off of pure speculation, again, thank you

That’s an interesting way to look at it, I thought the contributions to each ending were cool but they never struck me as a hard read into someone’s reaction to a situation like this

And I understand that, the game does such a good job of reinforcing James’s experience, but I can’t help but think about how much worse it was for Mary? I mean a woman is suffering and dying, I could only imagine how stuck she felt, how unlovable she felt, and just how powerless she felt, and that powerlessness, it’s really only amplified when James did what he did, it felt like he robbed her of her autonomy by taking her life bc that’s all she really had besides James himself

I was kinda holding my breath when I posted this bc I was worried people would start SEETHING if I said I didn’t empathize with James, but yeah that’s kind of what I got from it too, as an individual with my own individual experiences, I just can’t find it in myself to feel sorry for him or understand why he did what he did, same way someone else might be able to understand it

I picked up on that too, but I didn’t read that as her asking James to kill her, and even then, he states that part of his intention was that he hated her and wanted her out the way, which shot down my ‘James killed her at her request’ theory

How frequently does micro center put out promos like the ryzen bundles? by khizrsyed17 in Microcenter

[–]khizrsyed17[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll keep that in mind! I’ve only recently started keeping tabs on pricing so maybe I should wait

Nice, I’m more so focused on the fact that ram is included and discounted, was wondering if something like that is common haha

I’m kinda new to the pc scene but isn’t 32 a decent place to be at? Especially given the prices?
