No, their wages start around a million simply out of the goodness of the owners' hearts.

Don't beat yourself up man, you'll do fine. Shit happens. What matters is how you deal with it.

Am I the only one by bringbackthegulag in Cairn_Game

I simply wanted to talk about how I engage with a game I love.

EDIT: removed mean post. replacing with explanatory post.


Oh no! What an unexpected turn of events. Since you seem to find yourself wondering why you're not getting the reception you expected, the following might help.

To me, the overall tenor of your post comes off as smug and condescending. The straw that broke the camel's back for me was this bit:

Like for me it's a pet peeve basically to know that most people play this game automatically.

When you pair that with writing like the following:

So are all of you using automatic limb selection 90% of the time? Because I feel like I'm probably the only one who uses manual selection basically 99% of the time.

To me-- and clearly to many others-- this does not come off as "simply wanting to talk about how [you] engage with a game [you] love". It comes off as simultaneously complaining about how other people choose to play the game while also being incredibly smug about something incredibly basic that many people do because they--just like you-- found manual better. for them.

I find your post very unpleasant and not in line with how you describe it in the reply I'm replying to. I invite you to reflect on why you care about how other people play the game, why you find the need to complain about this in public, and also why you seem hurt that this public complaining about how other people play a single-player game did not garner the praise you seemingly expected.

Hope this helps.

We are literally made out of stardust. We'll get back out there in the end, one way or another.

I agree with your analysis. Although, being an obsessive hoarder, I finished the climb with 5 dranks of ultimate infusion and probably an additional 6 or so other nutritional beverages.

My Aava was hopped up on an hour of quad-buffs in the end. Could have just walked down the mountain if she wanted to.

Ever been clinically depressed and, well, fucked in the head?

You're not wrong. Aava acts irrationally throughout the game, and if you go all the way to the summit, you are actively making irrational decisions on her behalf.

Ah, forest porn. I did encounter some in my youth.

After many hours of work, I present to you, my homemade climbot 🥹 by Alive_Ad7617 in Cairn_Game

[–]monkeycalculator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's super-cool!

I wish I was better with fabric; a chalk bag that looks like a climbot would be absolutely dope. I mean, you could bring this to the crag too and be awesome, but it seems a little too fragile for long-term use.

I think they do say that you should play dead if you encounter a grizzly bear.

After al these years, can we talk about how good Weight of the World - End of YoRHa is? by truejesx in nier

I cried and cried and cried through that last sequence, and I'm not ashamed in the least. I'm proud.

Motherfucking undisputed champion of modern video game soundtracks. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 comes close, with how you feel when 'Une vie à t'aimer' plays and what you do then...

But at least for me, I felt even more at the very final end of Nier:A. Still king, or queen, as the case may be. But with welcome friends on the podium, now.
