Oh I get it. Standalone, it’s great. It’s just not what I thought it was. I bought it for one reason, was surprised that it wasn’t what I thought I’d be receiving as a consumer, reflecting, I’d definitely say it’s a good game.

Battle passes/ dailies / loot boxes aren’t really my thing either. I do love roguelikes and the idea of “runs” and it being a sandbox to play in to experiment with builds.

Noita, for example, is probably one of my favorite games of all time. (Also a game I recommend everyone to play and give a good college try.)

Hot take for me: I thought going into Inscryption was going to be a pure deck builder game with a goal of beating the first guy. Then I really enjoyed the deck building in the 2d zone, and wanted so much more of that, but after beating the game, it has next to no replay ability. It turns very ARG centric and to get the whole story required going outside of the game into the “real world” (internet) to learn the rest of the story. It never stuck with me, or striked me right. It felt like I was being led on and thrown into something I didn’t really care about.

I know that they added an infinite mode, but I think that’s just in the first zone, not all of them. .

In any case, the game was just ok, since it’s not the Slay the Spire esque card builder I thought it’d be.

I try, but of course life finds a way to rip whatever savings I’ve got slowly but surely.

Right??

Early Gen Z / very tail end of millennial here.

Got a job that pays ~80k (with promotion potential to 100k in a year) and I’m just… dumbfounded at how yall are making it. I didn’t grow up wealthy at all, and struggled with homelessness for a time, so I’m not new to the frugal game, but being able to put away only a hundred or two bucks a month after taxes is crazy with the hours and time I put into existing. I’d rather just not work at all if the end result is the same.

Doordash is a crux in my life and something I’ve definitely splurged on in the past, but groceries are just as expensive outside of rice beans and chicken. Baffling. :(

I work for a very large organization that deals in supporting nonprofit organizations (mainly) in part of a training team. My specific role is administrative support and curriculum development, as well as coordinating overall operations and logistics for one specific team.

I’d imagine about 600 pages of beaurocratic law which has several addendums that nullify the definition entirely.

It’s small because I knew it was coming, but I got the job offer for a promotion! Not many people I can tell.

Is your soul a good fertilizer?

“Ball is life” then implies…

“Fuck it, we live.”

Outer Worlds. Specifically when you have the conversation with Parvati in the bar about asexuality.

As someone who’s generally not been sexually attracted to anyone but is masculine, I felt a connection in the dialogue that I’ve never really felt from any media before, ever.

“I’ve tripped up folks in the past. Folks I thought cared about me for me. People said I was Cold.”

Man I’ve never felt representation like that. Sex to me is so strange and often gives me a disgusting vibe, though I won’t deny it to my partner, its just not in my DNA I guess.

Anyways. Never finished that game. After that conversation, I lost most interest in any other dialogue in the game. Might go back at some point, but not yet.
