  1. Life

    Well it's definitely not cheap to buy a house in SF. But what I really meant is that I don't want to stay in any one place long enough to even make owning a house a viable option. (Renting is a different matter, of course.) Even though I haven't done the interview, yet, I'm already really hoping this Dallas things turns out well, because I'm super excited at the prospect of living in a new place. It's only been a year in SF, but I've grown complacent and bored. And that's not even to say I feel like I've done everything I can or want to do in SF. Just that, although I like the people I know here quite a lot, and I even like the area I live quite a lot (though my new roommate is considerably less than ideal), I'm just kind of... bored. I get bored pretty easily. New places make me happy. Maybe that's unhealthy, but whatever.
  2. Nintendo 3DS

    tegaaaaan i don't care what it was intended to beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ):
  3. Nintendo 3DS

    That doesn't mean it can't be more challenging...
  4. Nintendo 3DS

    They don't have to be. In fact, they could be both. In fact, the early Kirby games were much more difficult than the Kirby games that come out nowadays. (Well, but that's almost universally true for all series/franchises.) Anyway, I don't care what they're supposed to be. Kirby is a fun concept that is ruined for me by being so easy it's boring.
  5. The Nintendo Wii U is Great Thread

    Holy shit that trailer looks fucking fantastic! Also Bowser's car. YES.
  6. Nintendo 3DS

    That is quite adorable, but I wonder if it will be at all challenging. Kirby games are so ridiculously easy, for the most part.
  7. Half-Life 3

    Definitely, except that I think the author mistakes interest in excellent atmosphere and game design for interest in story. Well, speaking personally, anyway.
  8. Life

    Yeah I definitely want all that. But I also don't want to get Stuck.
  9. Life

    But to be serious for a moment: A house seems like a thing I should want, but I'm not sure I'd ever be happy being tied down to a street let alone a neighborhood let alone a city let alone a state let alone a country let alone a planet. Maybe some day.

    Can the house be made of chocolate?
  11. Life

    Oh fuck now I want some chocolate. Guess I'm gonna go buy some chocolate!
  12. Breaking Bad

    I also liked it. Though I could see some people saying that maybe it was a bit too . And I wouldn't blame them for it.
  13. Breaking Bad

    Mmh. INDEED.
  14. Life

    I just realized I have three friends from three different times of my life all living in Dallas, right now. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad to move there. O: Interview is on the 9th. So far away!
  15. Old games are hard

    Not true. (I won't for a second pretend it wasn't bad design, though.)
  16. Old games are hard

    Just piping in to brag again about how I don't find the Meat Circus all that difficult. Wokka wokka!

    I don't have much to add to the conversation, but I do want to say that I completely agree with Sno on the Zelda vs. Darksiders thing. I quite like Darksiders. And I do still like Zelda despite its baby-game-baby-oh-baby tendencies, but yeah. Yeah. I'd kill for a Zelda game that acknowledges that not all of its players are five years old. Dark Souls, while it might be a lot of what I want in a Zelda game, is thematically the OPPOSITE of what I want in a Zelda game. It's so.. dark. Darksiders was dark (ha-ha), but in a very dumb comic-booky kinda way. And now to sorta contradict myself (on liking Darksiders)... To be perfectly honest, I'm sick of grimdarkdarkgrim. It has its place, certainly, but it's such a tiresome tone that really brings me down. Zelda is very much like a fairy tale. It has some weird shit but is overall pretty happy in tone. I like happy. ): What were we talking about?
  18. Help me choose...please.

    I know that feeling! I have a ton of games I know are great that I'd love to play, but just... not right now.
  19. I'm planning to buy X or Y! I've tried picking Pokémon back up throughout the years, but it's always felt too samey. Hopefully this time it'll be different enough to make me happy.
  20. Dreams!

    So I was playing Dota 2, just now, and a guy on my team had the name "SJR". I was trying to think, what could it stand for? First name that came to mind was "Stephen", at which point I remembered... A common theme in my dreams for a few days now has been people calling me Stephen. My name is not Stephen. WHAT, BRAIN. WHAT.

    Hey I finished Electronic Super Joy! Dang that game is hard. I did it all though. I DID IT ALL. Super pumpin' soundtrack with sweet sick art and hard as balls platformin'? Yes, please.
  22. Old games are hard

    I dunno. I've played that game a million times and never reached an unwinnable state. Granted, I may just know what I need to pick up and when I need to pick it up, but I'm pretty sure everything you need later in the game is accessible later in the game.
  23. Old games are hard

    I've been playing Electronic Super Joy. It's one of those Fucking Hard platformers. It's fucking hard.
  24. Old games are hard

    Huh?
