  I read of such stories once in a while. Sadly, I cannot relate because I always played singleplayer games back then, so I missed out on that. But I would like to add that joining pve world events in guild wars 2, there is some chance that there are people chatting publicly like they have known each other for a long time. Not sure what is is worth, though, but it always give good vibes to work together. Me playing mostly wvw (pvp) we (me and my friend) somehow found some likeminded people who invited us to their private voice chat and talk there while playing together. It is not very often, but it is a start, I guess.

  Not sure where I was going with that but I though I add what I could I guess. Thank you for reading!

  Steam frontpage, twitch streamers I watch and sometimes word of mouth.

  Pretty sure it is called The Talos Principle but glad you found this gem!

  I had a teacher that taught both religion and chemistry. People who learned about that often made comments about it being weird. But he insisted that both topics are not exclusive to each other. It has been a long time since school but I think his reasoning (if that is the correct word) has been that one is philosophical and the other scientific which are separate worlds. You can’t prove stuff in faith scientifically but neither has religion a place in the " real" world. And, to be completely honest, he was by far one of the best teachers I have ever had.

  It really did hit hard.

  At least for me I could get into the next story part after I was like “wtf just happened” but for players at the time of release this was the latest part of the story and they were stuck with this awful last line for week(s).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"PSN isn't supported in my country. What do I do?" Arrowhead CEO: "I don't know"⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This statement reminds me awfully of the Living World Season 4 Story in Guild Wars 2.

  And yes, before people become angry about this comparison: I said “reminds me”, not “the same as” or anything else.

  Explanation (hard spoiler!):

  In essence, you do everything you can, unite different people for the fight that determines the fate of the world. But… you lose and that was the only chance. You barely survive with your friends; but not all. youtu.be/jk5nfHxyQno?t=7220 The Commander (you) are asked what to do (because you always had some kind of answers; a plan; every time). But since this was the only hope, you say “I don’t know.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Way Forward, an update from the team behind Cities: Skylines⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I did not even know that a DLC came out. I am sure I would have if it was good news because streamers I follow would have tested it.

  But it is so sad. I really liked cities skylines because it basically is what I wanted from sim city. But with a million mods it would always break at certain points and force me to stop playing. I had such high hopes with 2 but seeing this game at launch and now seemingly still broken is so… well I am not really sure how I (should) feel.

  The good thing is, that I do not have to keep reading and researching but rather wait for some “news” to pop up in my feed again. So I can get back to forgetting about it.

  We have such a test too, but not as extremely dumb. But it’s still in the realm of: how do you wear your high-vis-vest? A: well visible from all sides B: hidden under your jacket to not get it dirty.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Have you ever seen coal in real life?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  We once had a very old house with a cellar that was not used and not built for living there in any way. So you had plain rock walls and it was pretty moist. I do not know why but there was a single basket of coal down there. So I have seen black coal but I have not touched it.

  Crude oil I have seen too back in school. My teacher had a sample to be able to show it.
