PSNOT 3.0 - Let's Talk About University of Kentucky, Baby!

Yeah, Lego week is the only one that sounds interesting. Mostly considering it for some of the older titles--the Star Wars and Indiana games. Maybe Pirates. For some reason disc copies on all those are on the high side.

 
Are the extra episodes for Re Rev 2 included on the disc copy? $2.99 for the main episodes ain't too bad I guess, considering the first one was free.

 
I think I understand where he's coming from. For someone that isn't a social person or doesn't want to get out of the house a lot it might not matter much, but if you're constantly around other people and don't have much to contribute to the conversation or have much to talk about in general then it kind of sucks. It's good that he recognized he enjoys games so much that he has a weakness to just binge on them without doing much of anything else... I think it's important to find a healthy balance for it in your life.
Why do you need a college degree to contribute to a conversation though? Plenty of smart people don't have degrees. If there is shit you are interested in and want to talk to others about look shit up and educate yourself on that subject so you can talk intelligently about it.

Obviously if you want to talk to engineers about stuff you had NO clue about it isn't going to go well. But for general run of the mill conversations with the average joe you don't need a college degree.

 
Oh and who gives a fuck if they delayed Uncharted again.  Until that dev releases a technically shitty game I will give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they are fixing shit before release.  gamers should be happy since they always complain about broken games on release, bugs and day 1 patches.

yeah it doesnt matter what your education level you can educate yourself on the world around you. I dont know a lot about politics nor follow it much at all but I know enough to carry a conversation about it while drinking at Fly Bar. And I barely know how to read.

I have a college degree...a Masters even and I am in the same boat as you. Most people hate their jobs. You just have to find other things you enjoy. Like talking shit in this thread.
I wouldn't say I HATE my job. But if I hit the lotto like pitfall I would put in 4 weeks notice. I would give my boss a chance to get up to speed with what I am doing. I might consult for a few months (if they wanted it) to get the new guy up to speed. I am under no delusions that I am unreplaceable but it would take them some time to go through the hiring process. But after that I wouldn't work. Some days I really want to say fuck you all. Yesterday was one of those days. But overall I like what I do most of the time.

But I am not one of those people whose career is who they are. I would be happy doing what I was doing 10 years ago for almost 1/2 the money. But I can't live on that kind of money anymore.

As you have seen from my posts here I couldn't even right for a video game sight.

This morning made some additional progress in Shadow of Mordor.  Then got killed bunch.  Just wish I could get a bit more consistent.  I still don't mess with strongholds since I just get over run.  I have done some side stuff to level up my guy some.  When I am hitting the combos and counters it is pretty satisfying.  But when I am not and I am getting destroyed it is frustrating as shit.

???

I think you're mixing up conversations.... jay never said anything about wanting a college degree nor did I say anything to him about getting one.

Backlog was suggesting that the lack of a degree was contributing to him being stuck with his job, but that was it.

What are you doing, content-wise? Focusing on the story missions or side stuff? Outside of getting swarmed I don't recall the game ever being particularly difficult so I'm curious what you're doing to be having so much trouble.

I don't recall having much trouble with this game. I would say the beginning is the hardest part, only because as you unlock more upgrades you become almost hilariously overpowered. Go find some collectibles and stick to side missions that aren't too frustrating. You'll get some decent upgrades soon. You will of course have to do some story stuff to unlock new abilities.

According to the tracker I have done 7 story missions. This morning I stayed away from other story missions and was picking off some of the captains or whatever they are. Unlocking some skills and points. Got the one for stomping the ground where it blasts everyone near you.

Guess I will try to level up a bit more before trying any more story missions.

Had another captain almost beat (he was green) and then got swarmed by two more and a boat load of enemies. I tried to GTFO but got stuck and died. All 3 of them leveled up again.

 
Ok I got my stupid planet conquering and defense trophies in Helldivers. Are there any others tied to these dumb ass events?
As long as they don't magically somehow lose the war you'll get said gold trophy for completing a planet in a successful war when the other 2 races are defeated and that's the last community trophy.

So I'd have to complete a whole planet's worth of missions for this one right, not just one of the previous event missions?

 
I figured I'd turn the knife some for all you sorry sumbitches that have to be at work and stream some Woah Dave to add to your misery.

Most searched terms on Pornhub for each state in the US:

I'm sure this will get me banned or the secret PSNOT police will tell on me.
The south gets all the shit about being inbred and it is mostly all the northern states that want to fuck their relatives (granted not blood relatives apparently). Oddly, we mostly make fun of Kentucky for it (I think they make fun of WV) and they are the one in the south most into keeping it in the family apparently.

People seriously go onto a porn website and look for cartoons?

 
Can I report their shitty trophy list here? After playing it they could have done so much better with it instead of throwing the lazy minimum at it.
It would have been nicer had they given us some more trophies to polish.

I'm going to recruit my kids this weekend for some local coop. I'm assuming that's not going to have any issues. Hmm.

 
I think it's kind of hilarious (or it would be if online had worked) that Broforce only gives you something like 3 seconds to join in at the start as soon as somebody presses to join/start the match. Of course the game is drop in/drop out, so it doesn't matter, but the go, go, go attitude of it is funny.

Yeah, that whole thing is pretty surprising. Even more surprising? I've never been to pornhub before.

I think the assault on the homeworld planet should count as one, but to play it safe you can always complete another planet by doing a couple of lvl 1 missions.

The problem is that people tie red necks and hillbillies to the south when in reality there are a SHIT TON of them in northern states like Indiana, Illinois and Ohio. Even hipster states like Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire have a lot because its mostly wilderness.

Gold for doing what now?

I did the defense deal so need to do an attack for that gold?
You don't have to do anything. If you've completed a planet (which you do when you do a defense mission, homeworld assault, or complete all 2-3 missions on a planet in a normal sector) then when the war is done, you'll get the gold trophy.

Upstate NY as well.

yeah, basically anywhere there arent big cities there are people making their own way and living off the land and invariably when there arent millions of people around, you start looking to have sex with your own family...and things "evolve" from there.

 
Looks like my Ratchet and Clank order through amazon never updated with the 20% off. I've got a couple of the newer games that haven't updated with the 20 or 40% off when they went up without the initial discount as well. Guess I'll wait a couple weeks and see if anything changes, but I didn't realize R&C was so close to release now. 

 
Bummer about the extra delay for UC4 but it sounds like they want it to release right which I can respect. Gives me an extra 2 weeks to knock out UC2 and UC3 remastered anyway.

fuck yeah, R and C a month away and then Uncharted and Doom back to back in May is alright in my book.

I'm still waiting for the magical double discount on Shiren the Wanderer, but maybe the delay is because they are fixing the problem that made that happen in the past.

I'm clearly in the minority in here, but 3 delays is a joke. I have to get a budget report to my boss today, I think I'll delay it three times and see how that works out for me.

 
I'm surprised some of you are interested in that 10 Second Ninja game after you said you weren't interested in Action Henk. Looks like the same sort of thing, twitchy action where you try and set the best times.

Also Curve was teasing that game yesterday on Twitter. Cool that they're handling it.

you reporting metrics that come from another source to your boss is VERY different from someone producing their own product for consumption. It is THEIR product so they can clearly do what they want with it. The boss is the one making the decision on the date here.

I told him when I'd have it to him, he didn't tell me. He just told me to do it, didn't give me a date.

Maybe not technically but its definitely in the same ballpark.
You know, in a lot of circumstance is certainly can be, but I can also see where it wouldnt.

lets say your 30 and your dad is 60 and he remarries some 20 something hot ass bimbo. She is now your step mom. You might be inclined to hit it if she was throwing it at you. Now I would think thats weird to have sex with someone after your dad. Gross even, but I can also see why someone would still do it. Chick is hot and not blood relation, so there is no biological reason that you wouldnt want to hit it.
