Why are so many internships full time and unpaid? Who has the time for that?

Because employers like exploiting free labour under the false promise of jobs that don't exist.
 
Does YKN look like his AV?

I wish. I look like this:

Hibachi for lunch, and can I just Chris Cornell has the sexiest voice of all time. Pretty noose on the radio got me all tingly

Welp I Just Had Sex came on shuffle right after sex. I think we've transcended.

Started watching Stranger Things, first two episodes. I'm quite enjoying it and that soundtrack is superb so far.
Catching up on thread, and yeah Cornell is forever ingrained in my brain. We were blaring some Mad Season today though while driving from a park to the speakeasy.

That trio of Weiland, Cornell, and Staley is just something else. Never got too huge on Pearl Jam though for whatever reason.

Chris Cornell combines "One"(Metallica+U2)

Late night No Man's Sky because we were loopy. Trying to learn to speak viking language. Viking dude teaches us like forty words for the small small price of twenty carbon per chance to talk to him. Words like weapon and sentinel and education and... hirk? The fuck is a hirk? Urban Dictionary, according to a nine-times upvoted post, says hirk is a sexual deviant.

So we start singing "'Hirk' the herald angel sing!" but that's not good enough. "'Hirk' thir hirirld irngirl sirng, gliry tir thir nirbirn kirng."

I will no longer call No Man's Sky a not fun game because it afforded me a lot of laughter tonight.


Fuck I shouldn't drink I say stupid things

Saying stupid things is the spice of life! :D

NMS strikes me as the kind of game I'd enjoy if I was really baked and looking to unwind with a comfy, low pressure, psychedelic scifi adventure. It's so nonthreatening and inoffensive.

But outside of that...shmeh. The initial novelty has worn off, the sameness of the planets is sinking in (like...three extreme cold snow planets in a row that looked completely identical), and there's no longer a draw to keep playing. I actually had quite a bit of fun watching a mate play and being silly about it over a couple of beers, more than the time I've spent playing alone.

Not fussed. Expected this, still think the tech/scope is impressive and it's nice to see a game actually do it (even if the game part isn't to my taste), and Deus Ex comes out in like a week so that's my August focus.

I tried to play NMS high last night, no dice it just becomes more annoying and fidgety.

NMS is great if you make up your own fun or imagine it's another game

Ive managed to do neither

We fell back to it because I was having a hard time losing at Smash. Like I wasn't even trying and I just kept winning. (Rendle you can add that quote to your next game ♥). I even went undefeated as Charazard and Bowser. Bowser! So we needed something else to do.

But yes, it's not a game that I'll play by myself and sober.

Most fun I've had is bashing it. >:D

You should play Don't Starve sometime, similar idea as NMS except actually good and with satisfying goals to work towards and delightful discoveries and really momentous things that happen

It's the kind of game that could never be made by socialists :D

Man you must really like her if she's that shit at Smash.

I'm stuck on NMS. I was told to upgrade my handtool but I don't know how. I don't know where the blueprint for it is. And I got killed by damn space pirates upon leaving Planety McPlanetface, and lost all my loot. Fuck that.

I've watched a lot of BaerTaffy playing it. I like the aesthetic and the mechanics seem quite solid. The trick then is finding the time and/or the company. No Man's Sky is a much easier sell, for better or worse.

I've never played someone who was good at smash. My younger brother is decent, so he'll consistently come in second place, but I don't qualify that as good really. It usually takes a 100% handicap and everyone ganging up on me before I falter. So I don't blame her for being mediocre at the game. I don't know any different.

Fly back to your grave and get your shit back. When the pirates come and you don't want to fight, just fly away. They'll get bored after half a minute or so, same with the sentinels. The multi-tool has upgrades in about half of the stations you can find all over the place. Just check the terminals on the wall.

I played Starbound briefly a while ago and it just felt like Terraria in Space, and Terraria just feels like 2D Minecraft

Depends on what experience you want, I guess

Don't Starve is nothing like Minecraft

Just a suggestion because we've had a lot of fun playing this as a couple. I find something sad about the only choice being NMS. She'd probably leave me

I managed to get my shit back (eventually) but flying away from the pirates did nothing for me. They caught up repeatedly and blasted me out the sky again. I think my ship is too slow and needs upgrading. As for the handtool, I need the upgrade where I can blast open steel doors. I've been told to access a research factory, but it's locked up tight.

It's the bolt caster. I'm pretty sure you start out with the blueprints for it.

I still need to play the originals.

I have them, just haven't downloaded them.

They're quintessential eurojank, but there's still nothing else out there like them. It'd be like if Souls disappeared and nobody tried to make Souls-like games. An unfulfilled void remains.
