If you think solid is gay play the opening to phantom pain.

Venom isn't related to Solid Snack at all, though.

Skulls are actually pretty fucking terrifying sometimes, especially the first time you try to outrun them.

Protip: never write in the first person. Ever. Instant fail in college courses.
Unless you're writing a narrative, or otherwise told to.

"You" is a big no, though. Never use "you". It projects assumptions onto the audience, and it generally turns would-be readers away.

Ghost Babel (which is just called Metal Gear Solid in NA) isn't exactly a cheap game to find.

Also I have Snake's Revenge CIB. Looking for a Metal Gear CIB to complete the NA Duology.
I actually want to mainly play Ghost Babel, I don't know why but, I have a fascination of playing any game related to the gameboy color
It's considered the most boundary-pushing game on the system. It's really amazing what they managed to do with the hardware.

I dream for a CIB copy of it, that would be heaven.

- poorer voice acting (who cares)
Who says that? The only "poor" voice acting segments are the really stupidly overexaggered scenes, like Snake freaking out and almost shooting an old guy because he lost his train of thought.

Other than that, audio is 10x better. Everything was rerecorded for HD audio between MGS and TTS.

TS is best looked at as a tacky "based on true events" movie. Much more enjoyable that way.

Also I have a theory about that second door. It being Chico or another member of Mother Base. Still wondering though.

Chico is confirmed dead in one of the cassette tapes you can get early on. He died in the helicopter crash.

Rescuing Miller was disappointingly easy. Actually, all of the missions I've been doing are pretty easy, especially in comparison to Ground Zeroes.

The Guy and the Stinger best mission

Trying to get Prisoner 12282 is kind of annoying me, probably because I can't 360 noscope with the tranq gun like everyone I've seen play GZ can.

Meditation isn't about a pose, it's a mindset. Find a comfortable position and a mantra, then do that for about half an hour to an hour a day. Does wonders.
Half hour seems like a long-ass time just sitting there. I mean, I'm sure if one's anxiety is intense enough that you just can't function unless you calm down, then I suppose there's a cost-benefit analysis to be made there in terms of it being an overall benefit, but... I don't know, meditation is just so alien to me. I'm not a spiritual person, at all.

also go on steam pls
You don't have to be spiritual; meditation is the practice of detaching yourself mentally and reflecting on your surroundings. If academics are a work out of the mind, meditation is stretching; you don't just wiggle around a little bit to stretch, it's carefully testing your muscles to warm them up (or cool them down) for activity. Good relaxation isn't instantaneous, it requires time to achieve.

Meditation.
I tried this for like 15 minutes sitting on my bed completely still, but I still moved a little. It felt like I was sitting there for a lot longer. I gotta look up a wiki how on how to do it the proper way. I decided stop because I was sitting on my bed and the soreness of my back and legs were getting to me. I was sitting cross legged with my back straight.

So, really, nothing that can't be solved by killing ourselves, essentially.
If I understand, it's more taking your punishments in step. Losing your friends in such ways may further put life into perspective in terms of what you need to do to live more godly as an individual and as a community.
Seems like an awfully subtle and pernicious way to put your life into 'perspective.'

Not to mention, not all people view it like that. People can take loss in various different, sometimes even tragic ways. I just don't see how a supposed all loving god could do something as abhorrent like that just to 'advance' a person.

Sounds like a utilitarian prick to me.
God isn't just loving, he's also wrathful. His punishments are intended to set upon those to learn the righteous path, and there are countless examples throughout both the Old and New Testament in which he practically tortures his people through his insistence that they follow His creed. But He isn't jut throwing hissy-fits when He doesn't get his way; they're punishments he inflicts due to the victims not following his rules.

I always imagined it like a pattlin', except with more death. Keep in mind I may be completely wrong about this, I'm just speaking from my own knowledge and perspective on Christianity. And unless you're speaking with a Catholic from the 16th century, chances are any Christian you speak with about it will have a different view. One of the Ninety-Five Theses and all that mumbo.
