Sometimes that’s what it takes for new players to really feel and understand the consequences of their actions. Combat might not always be the best solution and escaping a battle is always on the table.

That’s kinda where I was before I put the game down for S1. The payout doesn’t seem worth learning the dance

My childhood was a LOT of Jet Moto 2, Coolboarders 2 and Twisted Metal 2.

Bring em all back.

Any hype it had was killed by the gated access that required invites. Plus, Facebook didn’t have your racist uncle on it yet. It was still fun.

At least they let me turn my Stadia controller into a regular Bluetooth controller ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Absolutely one of my favorite shows. It hits all the right notes for me. I can definitely understand why it wouldn’t be someone’s cup of tea, but it absolutely resonated with me.

Playing D:OS2 with 3 others REALLY helped me get more into the game. I get dumb brain when I try to control all of the NPCs and I never really make it out of the first act. With a group, I finally hit the 3rd act for the first time lol

We are probably going to transition into Baldurs Gate when that officially drops though and I can see another few hundred hours going to that.

I’m a produce manager for a grocery chain in the SE US. I tell people ALL of the time to pick out the ugliest cantaloupe/honeydew because it’s typically going to be the sweetest/most ripe.

You’ll have people shaking, rolling, knocking on melons trying to find “the good ones”. It’s pretty funny to watch people make their selections.

Dozens of people still use Tumblr!

Disc golf. It can be very cheap to get started. Most courses are free. It gets you outside and in nature.

It can be as social or solo as you want. I like to play alone because then I can take all the time I want to throw/rethrow as long as I don’t have people coming up behind me.

It really only gets worse as time goes on. It’s like the NPC level is static and they get one shot, but the monsters scale up and up. I only do the events because of the density for XP.

Thats the real reward, the resplendent would just be a bonus if you got it.
