Alice in Chains and Frank Sinatra

Exactly! That’s why I love !patientgamers@sh.itjust.works

I have a nearly fully blocked nose, always have. As such I can’t really breathe through my nose at all (also my sense of smell is nearly nonexistent). I still eat with my mouth closed. It does take me a while longer though, since I basically need to stop eating in order to breathe. But I’d rather do that than the alternative, because I agree with you, chewing with your mouth open is disgusting and disrespectful.

Includes the TV show

Thanks for making the post. It’s nice to air out the emotions sometimes.

A bit all over the place lately. I found out I’m having a kid, which is very exciting, and pretty much the thing giving me motivation at work right now. I work in a kitchen and generally like what I do, but upper management is awful and it’s only going to get worse. We got a new big wig recently, so now a bunch of changes are being made to make us more “efficient”.

I’m considering a career change, but I’m planning to take full parental leave (8 weeks for fathers where I am) when the baby comes in the fall, and plan on also taking my vacation during that time (either right before or right after), so I want to wait until that’s all done first. I’ll probably look for a new job in the new year. Some days it’s hard to wait out that long though, today was rough. If every day is like today I don’t know how I’ll make it through the rest of the year. I expect a mass quitting soon if that’s the case.

!newcommunities@lemmy.world is a great place to discover new communities. As for big ones that already exist I’m sure there’s probably a list of big communities out there somewhere, otherwise browsing by All > Top 6 Hours or All > Hot will give you a good mix of everything. Then you can add communities you like from there

Edit: also lots of communities will shout out other communities in their sidebars. Check those too

This would be a great time to promote !patientgamers@sh.itjust.works

(Soul)Silver for nostalgia, Emerald for favourite to replay

I like this way of doing it. For me:

Nostalgia and all-time enjoyment, probably Pokémon Gen 2 / Remakes (Silver / Gold / Crystal / SoulSilver / HeartGold). I consider them all one game of different “flavours”. If I had to choose one I’d probably go with SoulSilver. The remakes added some much needed modern conveniences, and having your Pokémon follow you around in the overworld was awesome.

Pure “this game is so good”, probably Elden Ring. Before the DLC I’d probably go with Dark Souls III because of Gael and Friede, but Shadow of the Erdtree blew me away.

Most hours played, Skyrim at over 5,000. HITMAN is in second place at a bit over 1,300.

My baby being born. (S)he is due in September. Can’t wait

+1 for patient gamers too. It’s a great community with great discussion. I don’t think I’ve had a single bad interaction on there

I don’t have any friends who play Hitman, and it doesn’t get talked about much here, so I’m always happy to talk about this game! It’s probably top 5 of all time for me. I hope you play Hitman 3, it’s good

Some of my all-time favourite games. When Hitman 2016 came out I used to do silent assassin suit-only speedruns of Sapienza, honestly one of my favourite challenges to do since I usually suck at video games. No idea how I got good at that one very specific challenge, but being good at something feels pretty good! I estimate 75% of my playtime is probably in just Sapienza. I also really liked Hokkaido too. The patient zero mission on that map was one of my favourites.

If you get the chance to pick up Hitman 3 on sale I’d recommend it still. The regular levels are all great. I agree that the DLCs and stuff were annoying, but I still got them anyway and don’t regret it. More content for Hitman will always be a plus with me. I won’t buy the cosmetic stuff though, that’s not worth the money to me.

My games with over 1k hours (approximately):

Skyrim - 5,300

HITMAN - 1,350

Forza Motorsport 6 - 1,200

Other games with > 400 hours: Fallout 4 (mostly modding), Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Oblivion, all the Bungie Halo games, Red Dead Redemption 2, Battlefield 4, Minecraft, Dark Souls III, Elden Ring

I’m going as Joe/Manco/Blondie from the Dollars trilogy. My girlfriend was originally going to go as cowboy (cowgirl?) Barbie but that might be changing now

During the summer it can get up to 30, during the winter down to -20 ish. -5 up to 20 is the normal range though. Not sure how but she rarely sweats. She’s always freezing cold. Her sweat also doesn’t really smell much, not sure if that’s a pH balance or what, idk much about that.
