How do you figure?

Single player social media, perfect.

I mean, yeah? I don’t use a wash cloth anymore, I use a different kind of scrubber that dries out quickly, but when I used a wash cloth I just used a different one every day. Marginal impact on my laundry and a pack at Target was cheap. Every day I could wash my face with a clean cloth and then wash the rest of my body.

Yup. My childhood best friend reached out after learning that I was getting divorced a few years back. He lived out of state but was in town visiting family, so we got dinner. It was good to catch up. I ended up being one of his groomsmen and we still talk/game together, although distance still prevents us from meeting IRL too often.

I knew about this but it’s never made sense to me. If I was a billionaire I’d never drive myself anywhere, particularly not if I was going to be intoxicated.

I love that! If it’s your first time through, I hope you both enjoy it!

Ayyyyy, are you reading The Shadow Rising soon? I liked it more than the Dragon Reborn.

The Broken Earth Trilogy by NK Jemisin. Fantastic and heartbreaking. It’s kind of a crossover in science fiction and fantasy, set in a world that experiences apocalyptic levels of climate and geological change every few hundred years. Jemisin does excellent world building and a very admirable job of writing parts of the narrative in second person in a way that seems seamless/not gimmicky. Highly recommended.

Thanks for your concern, but I think I understand my own enjoyment of things and my financial situation better than an internet stranger.

I was going to buy it anyways, even if it’s a mess. If I spend the money now, the game feels free later.

I actually haven’t preordered it and might not, but this is how I felt about Mass Effect Legendary Edition, and Bethesda games are at the same tier for me. I have hundreds of hours in every game since Morrowind; I’ll eventually get my money’s worth.

This is a good feature to bring back to modern games. Anyone else remember F10 from Counter Strike?

I know buggy Bethesda games have become a meme at this point, but I feel like it’s very possible that this will be no more buggy than FO4 or Skyrim. Those games had their bugs, but I had way more trouble with bugs in Morrowind, Oblivion, and FO3. Now, janky physics or mechanics? I’m sure we’ll get some of that… And I can’t wait!
