Holy crap, that voucher is utterly incredible. It's like you won the flight lottery. Congratulations!!!

I handle government records. It's not nearly as exciting, but has the benefit of working to keep the government accountable to its citizens. I'm quite happy with it :)

Oh my goodness, that's a delightful abbreviation.

I was actually that way with Dark Souls, which is at this point one of my most beloved games. I rented it back in 2011, played it for a couple hours, got beaten up and turned it off. Before returning it, though, I thought I'd give it one more go since it had lingered on my mind and…

I'm sure it varies from person to person. I have a reasonably high tolerance for early-story tedium, so I can last a few episodes of a TV show, or perhaps 6 hours of a game. I'm still looking forward to Nier!

The Witness is utterly beguiling. Being head over heels for it is reasonable.

I have no idea what you're talking about, but it sounds like an alternative-reality Splatoon.

A storyteller has the burden of offering some kind of hook to get people invested. If they are unable to do that, it's hardly the audience that's to blame.

Hooray for you speaking up! And with quite a fun fact, no less: I'm an archivist (not games related, but still) and very interested in how electronic content is preserved, so it's cool to hear that the guy behind the Mega Man Legacy Collection has a passion for that. I agree that it's a shame his team didn't come back

I thought I'd love the aerospray, but found it a poor replacement for my splattershot or dualies. Haven't got my head around the N-zap, but I love the design so much!!

Also: Salmon Run is top notch. Much harder than I was expecting though!

Given the description, my bet is on the alternator, but I'm no mechanic. That can be a reasonably cheap repair, at least.

I had a very similar problem with my car about a year ago where, out of nowhere, it started sounding like some synchronized drum routine at a stop light (enough that my wife and I both though at first that there was actually a couple drummers somewhere around that block). Turns out that a heat shield had shattered

Oh yeah, absolutely. Aggressive is a legit strategy, and it's one that I too have a very hard time defending against. On the other hand, I've won using it before, so I guess I can't complain, eh?

Oh crap, you listen to Stuff You Should Know too? Those guys are great!

Oh yeah, also Overcooked is fab though I'm having some of the performance issues you describe. My wife and I have gotten maddeningly close to 3 stars on some really tough levels, but I feel like the main thing I'm fighting isn't time management but rather mind-bogglingly imprecise controls; I feel like half the time I

Good win on the Master Mummy fight. I'd actually considered using that tactic once it occurred to me, but then I remembered that it would be super obnoxious and not fun for either of us. Better to lose spectacularly than win lamely, in my opinion. Of course, this philosophy may be partly to blame for me never

I certainly found the camera to be the game's most challenging enemy in Metal Gear Solid and MGS2. It was maddening to have them recommend stealth but then give you so little awareness of your environment (and even disable the radar when under threat!). So switching to a movable camera in MSG3 has been a massive

I just got to the Robobot Jet level!! What a delight.
