@RogerRoger @JohnnyShoulder being called both wise and insane is not new too me. The way I perceive things lends itself well to this.

There is no great genius (not that I'm referring to myself as such or anything) without a touch of madness and vice versa. They even share a specific gene, called neuregulin 1.

@colonelkilgore Some one's interpretation of insane is another person's normal. There are plenty of things that I do which are perceived as not being 'normal', but I gave up caring ages ago. As long as it is not some thing like eating dog poop or harming anyone or anything, I see no problem with it.

Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.

@JohnnyShoulder Hey, don’t knock it — eating dog poop cures COVID. 100% of the people who eat dog poop don’t die from COVID. Scientific fact.

@Th3solution Pfft, everyone knows that drinking wombat urine prevents Covid deaths. Dog poo is for mumps.

Beast? How dare you.

@RogerRoger well at least we have company in our madness.

@mookysam and the leader for the Democrats is...

@RogerRoger There are highly intelligent people who are clearly off their rocker. I known people far more intelligent than me, but don't have an ounce of common sense. I know which I prefer to have more of.

a dumb person on average is happier than an intelligent person and lives longer.

@nomither6 Well no, it’s more that people who don’t stop to label themselves ‘dumb’ or ‘intelligent’ are more likely to lead a happier life. Live in the moment instead.

I’ve somehow only just realised that the voice actors in FF7 Remake are like actual actors. Cloud is voiced by a guy I remember from Pretty Little Liars of all things. Sephiroth is voiced by Tyler Hoechlin, the Arrowverse’s Superman. Even Rufus is voiced by a guy I recognise from that rubbish Revenge show with Emily VanCamp back in the day.

@nessisonett I wonder how many game voice actors are also live actors (and actresses) and vice versa.
Playing Control like a madman lately, I’ve grown to fall in love with Courtney Hope. It’s probably some kind of weird psychological phenomenon of feeling close to someone that you’ve experienced great trials with ...or something. Because at first, I thought her voice acting was actually rather subpar. Now I’m finding myself considering watching old episodes of The Young and the Restless and some horrible B movie called Displacement just to see her some more. 😅

But I remember after I was heavy into the Uncharted games that I was clamoring to watch some live TV show that had Nolan North and Emily Rose in it and I can’t even remember the title because it was so awful.

So in general, I think voice actors and live action actors should each stay in their lane 😜

nessisonett

@Th3solution Oh yeah, I knew Emily Rose from before Uncharted because I’d watched Haven before getting round to the series. It’s properly rubbish but I was way into those low-budget Canadian sci-fi shows back in the early 2010s.

@nessisonett Haven .... that might be it. Was North in that too?

nessisonett

@Th3solution I have no clue. Might have made a guest appearance. I couldn’t pick him out of a lineup unless he opened his mouth! Haven was the one with Eric Balfour from Six Feet Under and, bizarrely enough, Edge, like the wrestler.

@JohnnyShoulder I’m fairness I normally take a bit longer that the duration suggested in time to plats (maybe 10% - 20%) as I like to have a period of acclimation... it’s just an estimate to help me put together an over-arching plan to whittle down an out-of-control backlog... while maintaining freshness... all the while fitting this little hobby of mine in and around a full time job, a house, a demanding missus and an even more demanding step-daughter. If I didn’t plan, I’d probably ‘still’ be doing laps of Skyrim! 😉

@colonelkilgore I thought I'd move the discussion over here.

Having plans and structure are good an all, but not for everyone. I have a lot of that in work so like to have a different approach to gaming.

I'm going more with the flow recently and just playing what feel like in the moment. Trying to stick with games until I've at least finished the story, as I've got too many games unfinished in the past. Some of those games I've accepted I won't go back to now. But at the same time sometimes it is good to have a break from a game to refresh, especially if you are stuck or something.

I'm more about playing a totally different game from the previous one, rather than concentrating on the length of the game. After finishing FFXII the other week I was never gonna play another JRPG, so it was good timing that Returnal was out. I've heard people have completed that in something like in 12 hours, but I'm on about 30 hours and nowhere near finishing it. After Returnal, I don't know what game I'll play, but I'll have a look through my library and see what I feel like playing.

@JohnnyShoulder yeah nothing in this world is for everyone... nor will anything that is for someone at one point in time, be for someone always. I personally never used to hunt platinums or schedule (or play anything other than open world action & open world RPG) but things and people can and often do change.
