Planned Parenthood Opens $8 Billion Abortionplex

Wanted to fully experience life!

Grew up gaming. Stopped gaming for twenty years. Now I game again. I've had a great time. Climbed mountains. Traveled. All manner of relationships. Built a nice career. Now I find I can enjoy games without that, I'm wasting my life feeling.

All humans "waste" time. It's odd to say reading is better than games. Or movies are better than TV. They're all just mediums to convey stories. And really, there aren't many original stories, just the same ones told over and over in different ways.

At least with games, you are actively participating rather than passively consuming. And yes I do read lots of complicated books, and watch fine cinema, and great television.

But I also garden, birding, botany, camp, etc.

Holy shit that's commitment.

It is a big commitment. I did not dilly-dally and am a veteran gamer. It took me 90 hours to finish a moderate play through. It's worth it but it did start to drag at the end. And that's just one ending.

I've got some rocks on a shelf from the Permian. So a little older than 250 million years.

"I want a the biggest fucking pyramid this world has ever seen as my grave."

It's certainly older but Revolution OS is pretty thorough.

After recently finishing all of Nathan For You and the Rehearsal, I can honestly say he's one of the most original content creators I've ever seen. I can't wait to see this.

Sewage in the street by days end. Resurging preventable diseases long thought vanished by the developed world shortly thereafter.

Criterion Collection

Or

Janus Films

Both offer the best films of all time.

If you haven't played a game like this, there is a learning curve. I've been playing stuff like this for decades and there's still lots to explore, in purely mechanical terms, with BG3.

That said, it is very much worth the initial investment. I found playing Divinity 2: original sin very much prepared me for BG3. You could start there a little more cheaply before delving into this expensive title. At least then you can see if you enjoy this style of game.

My top 3:

1. RimWorld

2. Skyrim

3. No Man's Sky
