Almost to 625, which is an awesome number because it is 5^4 or 25^2.

Prob going to make a pork roast for dinner and try out my Left4Dead2 dedicated server that i just updated to include a bunch of new user campaigns. Yes it is 2021 and i still love to play that game.

Left 4 Dead 2 is dope but I never played any user campaigns

I'm actually super hyped for a knockoff that's coming out in a week called after the fall

it's something I've been craving for years, left 4 dead but built for VR

me and my friends have all pre-ordered it and we're counting the days

I got a door off the street (not exactly, but close enough, a person in my general area was getting rid of it) and it is an exact replacement for the original front door of my house so I've been working to strip off decades of paint, joints, etc and I'm almost done. I'll probably be able to drop it in tomorrow at some point if I can get my other tasks done first.

Quest 2 baby! It's standalone so you don't have to gently caress with a computer, just put on the headset and go go go

but also if you want to use your gaming PC you can with a cable or via WiFi

wireless VR is so loving good, and it's never been cheaper

you can actually get a refurbished one from Walmart for $199 right now, which is a loving insane deal:
https://www.walmart.com/ip/Oculus-Q...ampaign_id=9383

also, if you were to get one and use my referral link before activation you'd get $60 in free store credit (more than enough to buy after the fall):
https://www.oculus.com/referrals/link/Tip/

the $60 deal ends after the 6th though, after that point it's only $30

what I'm saying is go buy one right now for a crazy low price, get the game for free, and play some VR zombie coop with me

I know you said you don't have money, but surely someone will trade you the $200 for a kidney or something?

I think I am too old for video games now. I just find them to be a frustrating waste of time. I'm not sure exactly when this happened, but it was around the time I really started to worry about my lawn.

I got burnt out on videogames in my early 20s, nothing really grabbed me and it felt like everything was just the same game being made over and over and each iteration had worse gameplay but better graphics

for me VR is like going back to PC gaming in the 90s, when 3d was fresh and new and people were constantly pushing the limits of what could be done and inventing new genres

ever since I got my first VR headset like 7 years ago it's been 99% of all my gaming

it also helped inspire me to learn how to program so I could create VR games and get in on defining this new medium

it's very exciting stuff to me

also, the fact that VR is so tactile and physical really makes it so different from normal gaming

there's this game called echo VR that's basically soccer in zero g, and it really feels equivalent to something like going down to the park and playing a game of basketball against strangers

both in the social aspect and the exercise aspect

goddamn, I get so loving sweaty and into it jumping and moving around trying to score goals or block shots

i have to admit you make a good argument for vr.

on the other hand, that also reminds me of the song total entertainment forever, which is a great song, but also pretty depressing.

conundrum is good, you get to sound really sincere when you play them off each other

"ah gee shucks I really wanna work for your company but it's hard because these other guys wanna give me so much more money, gosh you'd really make my decision easier if you gave me $20,000 more a year and an extra 40 hours of PTO a year"
