Oh don't you worry. This "hole" is not planning on posting on here anymore. She will go back to living her boring virgin life somewhere else.
Bye.

Something here doesn't add up.

I used to go to Blizzcon every year. It's great if you have guildies you want to meet up with and have a drink outside where the food trucks are, or go into the Hilton hotel and attend one of those Convert to Raid parties. There is also Disneyland across the street if you want to go with them there. However, if you don't have people to meet up with, then you're paying $200 and $20 in gas to drive down there (if you're from out of state, then you're paying how much for your plane ticket and to stay at a hotel?) for panels you could have watched online or read a summary of on MMO-C (though you could actually get up and ask questions), and to play some upcoming games or classes, but that can be kinda fun. I remember when Overwatch was announced, the lines to play a match were absolutely packed. But then after 2016, Blizzard became incapable of shipping new games and they stopped support for HotS, so the only thing you can go there to play is upcoming WoW zones. The quality of the panels is hit or miss.

Nope.

But I was hinting at the woman posting when said woman has declared not to post anymore. I don't really care about the post's content.

It was a funny post about Blizzard only having shit to show for in 2024.

Here in California I've gone hiking to many places that had lots and lots of boulders strewn around.

What’s the general consensus on Songs of Styx? https://store.steampowered.com/app/1162 ... gs_of_Syx/ seems like a pretty cool game, some say it’s a better version of Manor Lords.

I started playing the original Call of Duty and hope to be able to work my way through every game. I know they got woke now, and seeing how this game has been so far it just breaks my heart to wonder at how did they butcher something that was like this. Spoiler in case I know some people that have grandparents or uncles that went/were sent to war in WW2 and know some Polish people that have had experiences with some of the themes this game visits during the soviet part of it. To hear about them is one thing, but how they recreated in-game during the boat scene and then up to the tank was quite something to see.
Fun little trivia a Polish woman told me to sprinkle on top of this:

► Show Spoiler

she said they never had a good relationship with Ukrainians, and, can't recall the details, but she said her grandmother taught everyone of her family to say "don't shoot me, I'm Ukrainian" in Ukrainian language because their enemies at the time, either Russians or something like it can't recall right now, would shoot Polish on sight. Another thing she said her grandmother taught her is "to always know the language of your enemy", and, in her case, she knows to speak Russian, German and a bit of Ukrainina (which, she says, it's different than Russian though they may sound similar).

CoD devs never bothered to do a historical research, they just stole their ideas from the various war movies. The entire CoD1's Soviet campaign was ripped from "Enemy at the gates", the notoriously inaccurate film that spawned the much popular "subhuman soviets used human wave tactics" meme.

Thank you for letting me know! I am saddened, but it is good to be corrected. That part lined up well with what the people I know said about the war, but, then again, they heard it from someone else so it really could just have been something rehearsed to make things look worse I guess

Finally enjoying Fallout 2. Some of the writing really was ahead of it's time and not in a good way.

I’m about to buy/ download the original fallout, if I like it I’ll do the same with 2. 3 is already in my library.

Stick with them. Don't get filtered like the hundreds of normies who saw the heckin' coolio Fallout show and thought they could jump into the original games.

It was heavily rushed, a large part of the dialogue was just whatever the writer probably watched on TV 10 minutes ago

I’m not the biggest fan of turn based, but maybe I’ll get used to it. Worse comes to worst I’ll just watch a complete playthrough or read the story in depth. Not even because of the show but because a few friends and I were talking about New Vegas today and none of us ever played fallout before 3.

the plot of dead space is literally just mass effect

You'll get use to it after several fights.

I wish it was a little faster, walking everywhere sucks lol. One game I wish was turn based is FTL.

There's a turn speed option you should max out in the options (it'll still be too slow)
