  1. I have 14 personal tennets that I live my life by. They are very unforgiving rules, and if someone has a problem with any of them then all I have to say is; Good for you or fuck you, whichever you prefer.
  2. I've never had a friend, so I can't relate to the experience. But I have often wondered what it's like to have one.
  3. Probably just leggings, sneakers, and a t-shirt or some kind of cute top. I find that's the most comfortable.
  4. In some areas, I'm organized to the point of being anal about it. In others, I don't give the slightest bit of a shit.
  5. I don't have family, and the community is a bunch of over entitled Karens and Kevins. So all that's left for me, is me.
  6. It's a scapegoat because they want to blame social programs like welfare for the downfall of society and the cause for crimes. They say it's an excuse to stay on the government titty, so you don't have to work, and can then do whatever you want with your free time. All the while they look the other way when asked to help change things and say "It's not my problem. Make them fix it." They blame others for the problems that we all face, but when the time comes for them to take action they're not the ones to fix the problem, someone else is. Then when there's not enough to fix it, they start up the bitching again. Always looking for someone else to blame.
  7. Clinical insanity in its purest form.
  8. FF8. I needed to do some serious thinking about a few drastic things and just needed to keep my hands busy.
  9. I don't know who has heard it, but I just did for the first time, and thought it should be posted.
  10. Never heard of it, but it looks good.
  11. I never liked NCIS. I was always a fan of Law & Order: SVU.
  12. I haven't followed the releases of AOE, but if the latest one is AOE 3, don't waste your money. 3 was an abomination. One of the saddest things was that there were way too many expansion packs, and they didn't actually add anything to the game. I had the War Chiefs expansion, and it did nothing for the game. I 100% recommend going with AOE 2 and getting the Conquerors expansion. A great game, with a simple expansion. The best in the series so far that I'm aware of.
  13. Tell Me Why (Xbox One) Paper Mario (N64) And one that my team is working on that we hope to have ready by this time next year. It’s a post apocalyptic survival game. But it’s a lot different than others. Believe me. I can’t go into detail about the plot until it’s finished, but it’s pretty unique for a post apocalypse game.
  14. I think I’m a prime example of video games not causing violence, being that I’m a clinically diagnosed sociopath. I play some of the most depraved, gruesome games imaginable. And I derive pleasure from picturing people in more pain and suffering than most can fathom. But never once have I acted on it. The game Hatred doesn’t give me the thoughts that I should try it just for whatever reason. I don’t care enough about people to waste the time and energy on them. All the planning and time it would take to set up a location to do it isn’t something I care to waste time on either. I can do it in game, and dream it up even worse in my mind, and I’m satisfied. It takes little energy and I get to experience what I want. The only time I would express any of these desires is if someone broke into my house. I’ve gone on record with the cops that anyone breaking in will not leave alive. It is my 100% intention to kill them. And I will succeed in ending a human life. Did video games have anything to do with any of this? Not a god damn thing. Actually the opposite. They actually STOP ME from acting on my desires. The violence I get to experience in game keeps me in check. So I can straight up tell you that violent games can actually be a good thing.
  15. Exactly my point. They weren’t violent because of video games. Also Ted Bundy isn’t a historical figure. But if it’s recent people you want then explain away Aileen Wournos, Gary Heidnik, Andrew Cunanan, Sante Kimes, and the two shooters at Columbine. Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold. None of them had an issue with video games, and had access to many of the same games we have today. Not the current entry of a popular series, but still the earlier entries which were still violent.
  16. AOE 2 and Diablo II. I played them almost nonstop. I haven't really played any PC games since that era. I tried WoW for a brief time, but hated it.
  17. I remember the game, but I never played it. Not sure why, but it never happened.
  18. I was never a fan of the Mario games on GB. They just didn't impress me. As for Sega, I never had a Game Gear or Nomad, so I can't really comment there.
  19. I'm a part of a team the makes the occasional ROM-hack, but mostly originals. If I had a job title, it would be "thinker". I think up scenarios or stories that I think would make decent to good games, and give them to the guys that write the software. If they like it they work on it. If it's just a quick thought or they think it could be the next major franchise they have me work on storyline even more. Sometimes that damn near turns into a novel, other times it's a bad case of writers block. It's not a paid job unless we start having a paying demand for games. But at the moment it's just something we do for fun. I got the job by word of mouth from people talking about my writing abilities. So I have fun with it. I get to see my name in the credits under "Story By" so that's always really cool. I don't remember exactly who it was, but someone got the cheapest Switch cartridge he could find to erase it so he could put one of our games on it. I don't think he's been successful yet. But that's the ambition of the team. When they want something new they call me, let me know the type of game they're wanting, and I get to thinking shit up. Whether it's a children's game or an adult game, I write up what I can, and away we go.
  20. That would be when I was a kid. I sat down and started a new game on Zelda A Link To The Past on SNES. And with the exception of a couple bathroom breaks, getting a cold soda, or small things like that, I went straight through from nothing to defeating the game with every heart piece and powerup in the game. I didn't stop to save or die. I wanted a perfect score of 0 and got it. At the time being a kid, I wasn't the best at video games because of a few reasons I'm not going to get into. But it took me almost a full day to complete. 10 hours or so. After that I was burned out on gaming for almost a year.
  21. The only time I'm playing any sort of competition is when I'm playing a fighting game like MK, SF2, KI, etc. But I have no one to fight, so those are always solo as well.
  22. I never used a guide for an NES or SNES game. The only GB game I used a guide for was the Oracle games. I used the guides for Zelda OoT and Majoras Mask when the games first came out, but to be honest I initially only bought the guides because they were limited edition collectors guides. Later when I got stuck trying to find items like gold skulltulas, and the big goron sword etc, I used a cheaper guide to figure out what the hell I was supposed to be doing. When I started playing FF8, I had no choice but to use a guide. I mentioned it before about the point on disc 1 where Zell, Quistis, and Selphie are locked in Caraways mansion. There's no way that anyone would figure out that you need to take a glass from the shelf and put it in the statues hand to open a secret passage. I was stuck there for almost months before I said "fuck this" and got a guide. Also I wanted all the GF's and some of them are hidden extremely well. I also have a guide for Skyrim, but that thing is so in depth and physically heavy that I haven't even begun to read it. Also a weird thing is that I have absolutely no clue where it came from. I found it in a box in my garage a few months ago. The same thing goes for a hardback copy of a Dark Souls II guide. I have no idea where they came from, but I have them. I have other guides that I'm at a loss for where they came from, but those are the two that really throw me. I may have possibly had them even before I had the damn games.
  23. Never once in my life have I played Minecraft.
