At work. Wishing I wasn't so miserable from my body.

Also playing tap titans 2 on my phone.

Sleeping, eating, watering the animals, working, feeding the animals, eating, sleeping.

Not much time in which to do anything right now. I just hope I'll have my D&D char ready on Friday.. /.. Saturday.
I did manage to spend Monday wisely. Went and bought some old outdated Swedish coins for my collection. Filled 14 gaps and got 15$ extra in silvercoins.
I also went out rockhounding.

I'm on vacation this week, so I've been trying out beatboxing and making songs just with my voice, software, and gizmos.

Forgot how fun Mortal Kombat 9 was. Replaying it some.
That one was really fun especially with friends. Picked it up on vita too so i could play on my break at work

It's great fun locally, but I'm never gonna play this game competitively though. EVER. Not even if there's a fire! Make one mistake and you'll literally eat a 25-33% combo that you can't do anything about except use your combo breaker. IF you have it. So Project M still reigns supreme as the best fighting game out there. Oh, and anything above Normal difficulty for the AI is flat out cheating as well. They read your inputs and do frame-perfect counterattacks. Plus their move priority can be bullshit if that wasn't enough.

Maybe I'll make a video of it.

And that's why I don't like fighting or racing games. I don't find it "fun" to be in a helpless position

Trying to finish the rest of jobs required by my father's estate before school resumes in the summer. There was/is far too much damage to his house that needs repairing before it goes onto the market.

Mhm. In Project M, you always have at least some options if you're in a combo. Mortal Kombat? Fuck you I guess.

BTW, if all the above wasn't enough, I just found out how anal MK can be with their inputs and how it apparently hates 360/PS3 analog sticks. Now I like to think I'm pretty damn decent with inputs. I can use Fox fairly quickly if kinda impercisely in Project M. But my screwups are my own. PM does what I tell it to do. Yet for some reason, when I play Mortal Kombat, there's a problem. And no, I'm not gonna spend extra money just to get an arcade stick for one damn game. How about NetherRealm Studios actually joining us in the modern day and building their game to accomodate analog which a HUGE chunk of people use?

Simulation racing games can barely be classified as games nowadays. If you don't have $500 worth of peripherals and a $1k computer to run them it's really no use trying

That said, if you spend the hundreds of hours required to get good at them, you will genuinely forget that it's just a game. For that point in time, you ARE IN A RACE CAR, battling it out on the track.

Space combat sims have the same appeal to me.

Dinner time while I wait for my cousins to show up for Borderlands 2. We just finished the bunker on the second playthrough

Me, I'm probably about to record some UT2004 Onslaught gameplay. Modded of course.
Nice, I'm a UT99 man myself. Gotta keep it OG, amirite? I've been working my ass off, and spent most of today working on newtotse.com, but that's just a hobby. Hoping to start moving into my new place next weekend.[blockquote]'d4' is not a valid dice string![/blockquote]

I do like UT99 overall better than UT2004, but UT2004 has Ballistic Weapons and an asston of content.

We don't need another fucking totse clone. We need to move on and make our own legacy now. And there's nothing wrong with Sanctuary anyway.

Other than the fact that when NewTotse was launched you had everyone on the ban list and had purged all the posts.

Welp. No need for it anymore since we exist. And I think NiS is perfect for you as well.

Then ban me. Make it known that those you simply don't care for aren't welcome on your free speech site.

To be fair, have you been moderated yet? Looks like you're just being told the expectations on the site and not being silenced.
