I don't understand why you're not modding it if you got it for the Xbox. That's the entire point of getting it again.
He explained that. Achievements.
There is a mod to add that back in~
Well then you'd just be a cheating scumbag failure loser.
No, that's using console commands, verby. I like mods that help increase my immersion. Like having to take shelter from the cold, making tents and campfires, seeing your breath come out when in the tundra, etc.
Even these mods could potentially make it easier for you to get certain achievements in some obscure way. If there's a particular section of the game that has you kill a bunch of enemies in a darkly-lit room in order to progress, for example, part of the "challenge" is that you're in a darkly-lit room where you can hardly see what you're fighting. But maybe you have some "harmless" texture mod installed that makes this room a little bit brighter, making it that much easier for you to see what's going on and do what you need to do to progress. This would be cheating.

The problem with "immersion" mods, ignoring the possiblity of cheating, is that they don't work unless you suspend your disbelief to the nth degree. For me, no matter how well-done the mod is, I would always be thinking to myself, "This is not real. This is a mod. This is not part of the original game." This would take me out of the game, preventing me from ever being immersed.

Oftentimes, mods have little imperfections that are inconsistent with the rest of the game's graphics. On the flipside, sometimes the mod's graphics are a little too perfect, and stick out like a sore thumb against the little imperfections of the vanilla game. If you're enhancing the entire game's graphics, that's no good either--"The game didn't originally look like this."

I can't be immersed if I'm constantly being reminded that what I'm playing is not the original game.

the only thing i wouldn't do is play on expert or whatever

because bethesda's understanding of "higher difficulty" amounts to "durr enemy do more damage and have big health"

as in, it's not inherently more challenging--it just takes longer

so unless you want to make the fights more tedious, i'd avoid that

Verby you can't honestly hate me just because I supported our President-elect...

Can't we agree to disagree? It's not like we chose to be born this way.
No, I don't hate you. I think you made a poor decision, but that's not why I posted that.

I don't even remember why I posted that lol.

The Flood / Re: Drivers license exam / test tomorrow
« on: November 17, 2016, 11:57:10 AM »
He counted me off for coasting into a stop (his intructions).
He counted me off for janky turning (fixed in two minutes).
He counted me off for launching from a stop too soon (untrue, when I started driving I always counted to 3 in my head before moving from the stop sign).
I never changed lanes, I always stayed in the far right. I didn't roll any stop signs. I didn't speed; hell, I went 25 in a 30. And my parking, while "sloppy", was within the confines of the parking space.

It was one of the single most bullshit moments of my life that I can think of.
If you say so.

Given that the only problem he had with my driving that wasn't caused directly by him was solved two minutes after the exam, yeah, it was some stupid. Nothing he failed me for warranted me waiting months and paying another $15 to retake it.
Why don't I believe this?

This level of confidence seems unhealthy. No one should be so confident about their own driving skills.

And the next proctor who tested me passed me with a near perfect score because she 1) didn't practically shout instructions and 2) I (as previously stated) fixed the one and only actual issue I had prior to the first exam. He could have passed me and I still would have fixed it, because why wouldn't I?
That's great. I'm glad you fixed the issue in a testing environment.

I'm just saying, chances are, it was for your own good. $15 is a small price to pay for your life or someone else's.

I always come to a complete stop, I always check my blind spot. Only speed if it's a familiar road, and even then only if it isn't residential and I stick to 5 over unless the speed of traffic is something else.

I mathematically passed but he failed me anyways. Imagine getting a C in a class, but the teacher says "I'm going to fail you anyway, that way you'll learn the material better." That's what happened.
So you do speed. There's nothing wrong with that--I mean, there is, and context doesn't matter--but it is something you do.

And yeah, if it were some fuck-off class I only took to fulfill some requirement, I'd be pissed. Sure. But driving is a little bit more important than that, though. It's probably the most important test you'll ever take, actually. If I mathematically passed, but my teacher still wasn't fully confident in my performance and said he was going to fail me instead, I'd be 100% absolutely okay with that.

Why wouldn't I be? I'd be more concerned if he passed me while I made mistakes. I'd have him test me again until I'm satisfied.

I definitely didn't roll stops lol, I sat at one sign for nearly a minute because I was so nervous about cutting someone off while I was taking the test.

It was literally two things that he failed me over: not stopping early enough at a red light (was still able to stop without slamming on my breaks and I only did it because he TOLD me to coast into the stop) and he didn't like how I steered. The first was an issue of me being nervous and him not helping by loudly declaring what I'm doing wrong while simultaneously telling me the wrong thing to do, the second I learned in less than two minutes after the test.

I had to wait an extra three months and pay more money to finally get my license. It was some bullshit that I passed (by his own admission) but he failed me anyway because he thought it would be a learning experience.
I'm talking now, though. I highly doubt you don't roll stops or speed here and there, now that you've actually had your license for how many years? Probably five? There's 14 things you're supposed to do before you even begin driving--most people cut it down to 3 or 4 because they don't give a shit they just want to get going.

Anyway, my point is that you probably don't drive perfectly, and my whole thing is that everyone should drive like a flawless robot--and anything less is bad driving. So it should come to 0 shock that your skills would be reflected in the score of your driving test, even if your proctor is a dumbass.

But now I'm confused. Now you're saying it was some bullshit that you mathematically passed--but in your first post, weren't you complaining that he decided to fail you instead? You called him an asshat and everything.

First driver's test I passed with like a 78/100, but the proctor failed me anyway because he thought I would work harder to improve
given the number of mishaps you've had on the road since then, was he wrong
One accident was legit my fault, and if you want to count dinging my own car while backing up at 5mph, two. Everything else was out of my hands.
Well, there's accidents, and then there's smaller errors that, while perhaps not immediately life-threatening, still would've resulted in a failure of a driving test--things 99% of drivers do. Rolling stops. Speeding (going 5 over counts). Changing lanes without a blindspot check.

I take Kupo partially seriously.

Mostly because they don't have a habit of nitpicking posts and condescending people like a contemptuous little weasel.
