Mass Effect and WoW have both taught me that the more time you invest in something, the more it will disappoint you in the end.

Great.

The proliferation of WWII wargames where plenty of players reliably choose axis sure predicted something.

Heck, the sheer love of WWII wargames period says something about how a certain kind of person prefers to view wars

Like in grand theft auto, I like to park dump trucks under waterfalls in real life. If you get the bed of the truck right under the waterfall the physics are really funny, and you can shoot your gun while you flail around like an idiot in the back of the truck.

Many jobs have systems parallel to an intricate and time-consuming crafting system that can triple the length of a game. the only really mandatory portion is making a wooden club one time in the tutorial, and then you'll never hear anything about it again if you're otherwise doing great.

Normally I don't make aesthetic criticisms in other peoples' homes, but that rug looks like a beaver exploded. If meat is murder, then that rug is at least a severe beating.
I greet everyone by either trying to sell them these fine leather jackets or by telling them that I mean to kill them all.

It really depends on my mood.

A tangled skein of bad opinions, the hottest takes, and the the world's most misinformed nonsense. Do not engage with me, it's useless, and better yet, put me on ignore.
Sometimes when I've been playing GTA for a while I have to manually remind myself to avoid pedestrians while driving irl

Like automatically I'll check for cops but it's an extra step to avoid the folks

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
back when I was playing gtao a lot I'd get bogged down in traffic and think, there's a sidewalk RIGHT THERE. It was very disconcerting. Now I think all video games should be banned

This is how I found out about the seedy underbelly of the seemingly normal health clinic, and the secret stash of automatic weapons hidden in the ductwork.

Sorry, but the people have spoken.



I steal and take everything that isn't nailed down and attempt to combine each item through brute force if I can't use any of my items to solve a problem.

Also if I am talking to someone, and the conversation ends, I start the conversation again with my opening line to make sure I exhausted all conversation choices.

I was taking driving lessons the first time I played Vice City. Since I'm from one of those places that drives on the left I kept crashing the car in GTA. Years later I found myself driving on the wrong side of the road playing Sleeping Dogs, which is set in Hong Kong - while I was still in GTA driving mode.
