Dean Kamen and James Stockdale. Dean for his ingenuity in the field of robotics and inspiring a generation of kids to love science, and James Stockdale because I admire his philosophy of stoicism and think his story is incredibly compelling and inspiring.

Last time I had one with friends was three years ago after Halo 4 came out. It's not the same anymore anyways as the glory days with CE and 2. Sad though, something that was so important to Halo's past is gone. That's kind of how a LAN party works. Everyone brings their console and TV/monitor over and you connect them through LAN. Split screen helps, but every one I went to when I was younger just used separate consoles. 5361

As I got into bed I saw a spider on the ceiling right above me. I swatted it down, and my cat chased it, then I smashed it with a boot, but it was still twitching so I dropped it in the sink and poured drain cleaner on top of it. It was mostly gone in a few minutes.
That's all. Goodnight. 5367

Gaming / Re: This War of Mine - finished update« on: June 29, 2015, 06:37:43 PM »
So I finished the game after 47 days. Each location was around 80% looted except for the military outpost, which I tried attacking once but decided wasn't worth the risk. Around day 39 I had stockpiled so many supplies that I stopped going out to scavenge except to donate medicine to the hospital to help with some depression one of my characters suffered from killing the traders in the hotel. It was definitely worth the risk, because the supplies in the hotel could've kept me going for 20 days probably. The radio said it was towards the end of the war so I started giving everyone double food to get well-fed statuses, and burned through some supplies to make moonshine to get everyone drunk on their last nights. In the end, all my characters ended with the status 'well-fed, content, & drunk', which is pretty awesome.
All in all I think I rolled a lucky game, because I had three really good characters (a cook, the trader, and the fast runner). I ended up taking in the lawyer girl but she didn't really do anything useful. My locations were also pretty lucky because most of the ones with variants were non-hostile traders instead of bandits. I really enjoyed the game and thought it was difficult without bringing along the typical frustration and countless redo's of roguelike games. There's also an option to set your own specific details for the roll, such as characters and locations, and that's a feature I've never seen in these games. On a relative scale I'd give it a 9/10 because it's really fun, addictive, and challenging, but it's also very repetitive in the first half. Definitely buy this game if you're on the fence. |
