The game wants you to break it. Some of the late game bosses are so over the top you need the broken maelle build just to have a chance. Thats what is fun about it too, you can make the game as hard or easy as you want depending on your strategy and mods.

Its an incredible game but not for everyone. I’ve been saying for a while that a game for everyone is a game for no one. These guys picked a specific genre and set out to tell an interesting/artistic story with a very specific vision and IMO they hit a grand slam/it is executed very well. If you bounced off it thats completely fine, not everyone is looking for what this game has to offer. It just happened to really click with me.

- Comment on Just opened a new jar of jam, only to find mold in it. 3 weeks ago:
ya I’d definitely report it to your local health authority. I’m not sure how it works at all but as I mentioned in another comment they can ID what it is and follow up (eg is this a one-off or is there a whole batch that is contaminated?).
- Comment on Just opened a new jar of jam, only to find mold in it. 3 weeks ago:
no but they can ID what it is, investigate the root cause and monitor this sort of thing.

If its in date you should probably report it to health and safety.

Ya the lore is pretty great actually with the caveat that I don’t consider anything cannon post-bungie (including that stupid tv show). I even read some of the books and they’re not bad. like cheap margaritas, not much to them but you can just slam em’ back. The best was a full lobby playing jenga, mongoose race, trash compactor, ghostbusters, I haven’t scratched that itch in years. Back when games were built around fun and not competitive sweaty twitchy cash grabs.

me too, thanks.

I’ve got a big soft spot for halo, my favourite memories in gaming happened in halo 3 custom pre-game lobbies, they really don’t make em’ like they used to!

Its a cool game and there is really nothing like it but I won’t lie I hate actually playing it, the controls and gameplay are just meh and some of the bosses are ridiculous but the setpieces and everything else was top tier.
- Comment on Remedy CEO Tero Virtala steps down after nine years 5 weeks ago:
Thats too bad But I kind of get it. I adored Alan wake and control but never played firebreak, was it any good?

- Comment on I landed in another toxic workplace after quitting a previous one. What would you do in this scenario? (Open to all suggestions) 1 month ago:
Every job is going to have workplace drama. I’m also in sciences, I spent 2 years on a masters thesis, 8 years in a research pathology core lab and now I’m about to switch over to medical lab work which has all the same core issues. Most people are nice and supportive but from time to time you run into arrogant personalities that refuse to listen and learn or ask for impossible requests in a very short amount of time. Management is under constant pressure to crank out high quality work with limited resources, salaries are low resulting in poor staff retention, brain drain and turnover so over time the work becomes more and more difficult for the incoming new hires as the scope of the job slowly creeps. What really helped me was to embrace and accept the chaos. Its just a job like any other. Go to work, you do you, go home. Just one good friend at work makes a huge difference, be flexible and help each other out. These are hard jobs so do everything you can to make everyone’s lives easier. Also don’t back down from conflict, speak up for yourselves and others. I’ve had bosses that advocate for my interests and bosses that don’t, you really need to speak up for yourself because no one else will. Sorry for the rant but I hope this helps. You remind me of a new hire trying to find their foothold in the sciences and I’ve found this advice useful in the past. Things just happen, go with the flow and try to emotionally detach yourself from it, things just happen for no reason sometimes and its out of your hands.

We’re regulated health professionals, its like how we can’t work on a family member or friend, it introduces bias. Its just the law and I understand why. I don’t think doctors can self-diagnose either, they need an appointment for someone else to do it just like everyone else.
- Comment on check urself b4 u wrek urself 2 months ago:
no in med lab its super illegal to perform diagnostic tests on your own samples, you have to jump through the same hoops as everyone else and trust the system to handle it. In research/experiments its a little more relaxed.
- Comment on Who is the enemy? 2 months ago:
I spent years in a research path core and am just wrapping up my med lab certification, it amused me when they hired actors to come to our program and we role-played dealing with angry pathologists, fuming nurses ect… Most of my clients have been MSc students or MD/PHD conducting research. they might be experts in their field and conduct these brilliant studies then stumble right at the finish line because sample collection was bungled or something ruined during extraction. I’ve seen some “interesting” DIY fixation and processing protocols to save a little money that did the same thing. I always feel so bad but most people are willing to learn and work with us.
- Comment on Who is the enemy? 2 months ago:
I’m in pathology (research, transitioning to medical) so that was my frame of reference here. Its my job take the samples given to the lab and turn them into slides for analysis but tue results are only as good as what I’m given in the first place (crap in, crap out). same with blood draws, urines, anything improperly collected no longer properly represents the thing it came from. Then I have to tell the client that…
- Comment on check urself b4 u wrek urself 2 months ago:
If its medical I’m pretty sure its illegal to work up your own samples. if its research… why not?
- Comment on Who is the enemy? 2 months ago:
lab techs hate improperly collected samples. The people who collect those samples often in turn hate lab techs.
