  • Of course! I’m not saying reviews are pointless, just that it’s ok to dislike a critically acclaimed game, or find value in a game isn’t as well received.

    If a game looks interesting, less than stellar reviews aren’t going to stop me from buying it, but it might make me wait for sale.

    Ultimately, your game experience is entirely your own.


  • Second this! I appreciate game critics and routinely factor their opinions into whether I’ll buy a game sooner rather than later. But sometimes there are imperfect games you connect with, and 10/10 games that you don’t mind missing.

    Even in terms of art: it’s helpful to read a critic’s impression on an art piece, but it’s also worth it to experience it yourself and form your own opinions.



  • I’m the oldest. I have a younger sister and brother, who are about quite a bit younger than me (the difference is under 10 years though).

    We’re all close and extremely comfortable with each other, but they’re closer with each other than me, given their closeness in age.

    I don’t live at home with them anymore, but our relationship always feels natural and picks up where it left off even after being away for so long. I think we’ve been fortunate in that we’ve never felt to the need to compete with each other, and I think of them as a constant in my life that that I can always count on

    I don’t know if I have ADHD, but I struggle with this as well! Sometimes I’ll write a message/email and there’s a paren after every other sentence.

    Lately I’ve been making an effort to substitute with a semicolon or bridge the thoughts with a dash:

    “I’m thinking this - but I also think this.”

    Unsure if that’s a correct usage of punctuation, but I feel like it helps the sentence feel more focused and an expansion of the thought, rather than a random segue (especially with work)

    Edit: realized that I had broken my own rule seconds after posting







  • I’m hopeful that this turns out well, and have less impact on the environment like they mentioned.

    I wish they delved more into what the differences were between the “pharmaceutical grade” and non-pharmaceutical grade versions of meat.

    Either way, I worry that it’ll probably be a bit more expensive, just like the current meat alternatives.

    At the moment, Beyond meat is the best meat substitute I’ve eaten so far.

    Edit: added a sentence
