I saw this sort of crap all the time when I was working in Corrections in South Dakota. There are just some people that get into the field because they enjoy intimidating and having power over others. My very first week at Sky Ranch for Boys I was sitting with my group in the lunch room and observed a 14 year old in…

Social Security funded his college.

Horizon is the best game I’ve played in years. Just a perfect package with everything I enjoy, the exploration, the drive to see what’s in the next valley, the gradual reward of building a stronger character and knowing you can finish the damn game eventually. Seriously, this game was just what I needed after…

I’m sort of glad I never applied. I hope things get much better for you.

I can walk out my door and drive a short ways to the Hell Creek formation. It’s famous for dinosaur fossils. I enjoy looking for the small pine cone fossils but I find small fragments of bones all the time. It’s the ONLY thing I like about South Dakota.

I’ve had cats since I went to college and my roommate moved back to Colorado and left me her’s. I’m pretty sure they all love me but with one cat in particular it was without a doubt. Mau was my best friend for over 20 years and I miss him every minute of every day. I’ve never me a kinder, gentler soul.

Here in small town SD the cops don’t like to move far from their donuts. I called once when three dipshits were driving reckless, doing about 50 in a residental area, almost hit a small child on a bike. It was early evening, pretty dark out and they had no lights on. They circled the block about 5 times but when I…

Yes. In a nutshell I think that’s exactly what they thought.

I feel the same. I hope you get more time to play soon and I hope all your days go well. It’s nice to get encouragement and civil discourse instead of other people telling me to “git gud” when I talk about the difficulty of some other games. I’m about to quit even going to Reddit because of it. Thanks for…

I heard a guy refer to his neighbors as “bottom feeders” last night on People’s Court and the meaning was not lost to me. We’ve entered a twilight zone episode where the racists feel it’s safe to “come out and play.”

That’s what I mean! I’ve been playing video games for over 40 years and this is the first time I’ve felt such immersion. They did the whole open world thing wonderfully. I’m lost in this game right now. Just wondering around and letting things “happen.” I’ll get back to the storyline eventually, but for now I can…

Well that and all the pumping of dirty waste water and poisons back into the ground.

Although I agree with you in spirit, at least we don’t torture and play with our food before we eat it. This “sport” is barbaric and only makes us less “humane.”

He lies. It’s the only thing he’s been successful at.

Agree. I’m still blown away by the ability to see something cool way off in the distance and develop a plan to get there. I haven’t had as much fun with a game since the first Dark Souls in that regard. This is my pick hands down for game of the year. Just wondering off into the wilderness and forgetting what I’m…

Off to do it now. I wish they had one where you could pee on him. Sure wish I could code.

Okay, like the “dinosaur” AI needed any improvement? I’ve been playing video games forever and I’ve never seen better AI. The humans suck but I thought that was pretty close to “real” also. Seriously, the more I play this game the more impressed I get with it.

Falls, lots of falls. The climbing is not obvious at points and sometimes I just start feeling like a bad ass. Only died once to a dinosaur/machine. But the incident was epic. I got flanked when I was sneaking up for a kill. I was so impressed by the AI all I could think was “clever girl.”

He’s obviously protecting himself from that Obama microwave thought stealing weapon.

It accomplished exactly what it was intended for-taking the attention off investigating the “Russian” connection. This nation has the attention span of a 3 year old.
