Bruh I've been grinding this questline for like 6 years and no drops yet. When do I unlock the health insurance perk?

[-] Hugh_Jeggs@lemm.ee 44 points 3 months ago

They released the same game on the Euro console, there's no dlc on that version

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 12 points 3 months ago

Well. Less DLC. At least you can opt out of the corporate trackers...

[-] ElectroLisa@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 3 months ago

Aka. PAL region

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

You gotta find a better questgiver. Some questlines don't have upgraded questgivers, so you gotta watch out for that.

[-] StaticFalconar@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

You know what they say about insanity right? Leave your low level tutorial area.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago

Yeah, you'll probably need to respec and likely need some new equipment, but there are a lot of quest lines you can follow.

[-] Sanctus@lemmy.world 44 points 3 months ago

This game sucks, the only way to play it is with an invite from someone who is already an extremely high level.

[-] MeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 months ago

Isn't that just your parents?

[-] blanketswithsmallpox@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

Depends on how high a level their parents were and if they needed to grind still or already had lots of bank space.

Legendaries can be shared by all characters in your account.

[-] Zozano@lemy.lol 0 points 3 months ago

"Extremely high level"

Preteen parents exist.

Something tells me this guy never left the tutorial area.

[-] tfw_no_toiletpaper@lemmy.world 42 points 3 months ago

This shit is pay to win, I might just uninstall again

[-] fossphi@lemm.ee 16 points 3 months ago

again

Did you unlock saved games or what?

[-] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

Buddhist exploit

[-] MenacingPerson@lemm.ee 7 points 3 months ago

Get paid to win 😉

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Just switch to an evil playthrough

[-] ryven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 38 points 3 months ago

I wish didn't get bored of jobs so easily. Like, getting to use a cutting torch sounds fun, but I know that by the time I was any good at it I'd be sick of it already.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago

Careful, you’re encouraging the “no one wants to work anymore” crowd.

[-] FilthyHookerSpit@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago

This line never made sense. Does anyone WANT to work? I don't think most want to spend majority of their life making someone else money. Like I'm sure some people find fulfillment in their jobs but for most who are just cogs in a machine, pretty sure they don't want to work. They HAVE to work to make a living.

I sure would love to not work and focus on building/maintaining communities, a job in public works would be ideal but they don't pay enough and require too much.

[-] CareHare@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

I'm a nurse (in Europe), and I do have a lot of fun at work. Sure, it can be hard or a grind sometimes, but at the end of 95% of my shifts I feel satisfied that I helped people. The atmosphere is good among colleagues and we have a killer union. It's ridiculous how secure my position is.

All in all, I truly enjoy what I do and after a long period of absence from work, whether it was to study, get better during illness or simply after a week or two off, I long to work again; help people; have a laugh with my colleagues.

Not all jobs are the same and I know that, I'm just lucky to be doing 'my dream job' and that I found it early in life.

[-] hydrospanner@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

I feel like the only way to respond to that shit is with a simple, "Nobody has wanted to work ever."

If either: people had the option to get paid at their current rate but not have to do their current job at all anymore...or the opposite, that they were expected to keep working at their current job but were told they'd no longer receive any pay for it ever again...how many do you think would still keep working at that job?

Way less than 1%.

Because (very nearly) nobody wants to work. They want money, and the most common way of getting money is... you guess it...to work.

The whole point of employment is that you're performing a task that nobody is going to just do for free because they like it...so whomever wants that task to be done has to offer an incentive to get people to do it instead of literally anything else.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago

Idk, once I have enough to retire, I'll certainly quit my job, but my hobbies look very similar to my job. The thing I don't like about my job is the obligation, not the actual work itself, and I'd probably end up spending a similar amount of time if I didn't need the paycheck, I'd just do it at different times in the day (like 2-3 hours in the morning, 5-6 hours in the evening).

I'm a software developer and my hobbies are FOSS projects. I like my job, but I love my hobby projects even more. I'd even take a modest pay cut if I could work on FOSS full-time.

[-] hydrospanner@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

So if your job sent you an email tomorrow that said they were going to stop paying you from here on out, indefinitely, you'd quit working for them and do something you wanted to do instead, even if it was broadly similar to what you are currently doing for them?

Thanks, that's exactly what I'm talking about.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

If they gave me a lump sum such that I don't need the money anymore, I'd probably keep working there for a year or two at least, but reduce my hours a bit. I like my company, team, and project, so it's nice to have something steady to work on. It's not my ideal setup, but it's consistent and good enough.

But longer term, yeah, I'd probably replace that time with FOSS work once I get onto a really interesting project.

Todays quest was drive the company truck down from a mountain top on a dirt road with air in the brake lines. RESPECT +

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

And remember: respect is everything.

[-] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 7 points 3 months ago

Sounds like a fun challenge

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 23 points 3 months ago

So, at the point I became disabled, I was a level 520 buttwiper.

That's actually not a positive lol

[-] TheWordBotcher@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

Oof, that sounds like a shitty job. CNA or equivalent? I hear those jobs often lead to disability as well, having to lift patients regularly and such.

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 months ago

Exactly that.

And, yeah, it wrecked me. I would have had to deal with the same stuff eventually, since the arthritis and back issues are a family thing, but I would likely have been still working until around now instead of then without the rigors of the job.

There was a lot of good in the job, but the price was high.

[-] DogWater@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Condolences. I fucked my back up without wiping asses. I'm sorry you have the bad back and the ass xp

[-] TheWordBotcher@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Oh, for sure. It's good and necessary work, just not good for the person doing it, unfortunately.

[-] velvetThunder@lemmy.zip 23 points 3 months ago

Those landlords with thier xp farms.

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 13 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I got off the main quest line, have now time for my sidequests.
Though not much EXP to make there.

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 months ago

side quests are terrible for farming gold but i find they allow you to build your character in ways you wouldnt be able to otherwise.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

One great thing about side quests is that you can do them alongside main quests. So while the side quest isn't great for farming gold, they can fill in the gaps in the main quest.
