Woot!

Walking is indeed pretty good. I've been capable to reduce the arrhythmia effects to zero thanks to the fact that I walk 12-20 km every day at my job. Why in the world did my doctor not recommend that and immediately went for beta blockers?

Stay strong, anxiety is never an easy thing to deal with. Congrats, on the improvement with dealing with it. KEEP GOING!

It seems to look pretty nice.

Yeah, specifically the barely clothed characters.

@OmnislashXX Lots of half naked anime gals in this pack. xD

If you want to reach wider audience, definitely not on Steam unless you know what you're doing. The competition is completely brutal and Steam is currently so oversaturated that the market is hostile. Gog would be a better option for commercial, although it offers lower exposure.

Apparently, GoG is very picky when it comes to the games they host. I've got an Itch.io account, and I'll give your other suggestions a try.

Gog cannot afford to adopt Steam's strategy - it's profitable in short term, but their low playerbase would kill them if they did.

@Isabella Ava Well, I didn't enslave all of humanity; I devoured all life in Iceland, Greenland, and Canada first.

@Dalph Yeah. It's a lot of fun, but certain pathogens can be a real challenge. I didn't enjoy playing as the virus (it mutates too quickly and gets you detected early), the nanomachine virus thing, or the Necroa Virus (zombies). My favourite pathogens to play as are the Shadow Plague (vampires) and the Neurax Worm.

idk, I never buy packs in mobile ver I just bought something trivia i forgot which one just to enable time skip or something.

I swear game projects, let alone the characters that makers create, can take a life of their own. I say, let the game grow into it's own!

can i have some of those i skipped lunch

Yuss! Please, take a few.

nice and cool

Oh those, my kid sister uses one with her inhaler. I've never seen it collapse though when she used it.

@Vox Novus Maybe my one is faulty. I always get broken things. xD

yeah I can see how that would make you feel a bit awkward... My partner has to sleep with a full face mask hooked on a machine (severe apnea) ... took some getting used to but hey if it helps

@slimmmeiske2 Lol.

@slimmmeiske2 LOL! Yeah, he's always giving me a dirty look because I know the real reason why he spends so much time in that back room. I use chemist and pharmacist interchangeably, as did everyone I knew growing up. Maybe it's a British thing. xD

@Scythuz No idea why he seems to have a problem with me. Perhaps he looks down upon those on benefits; sees us all as parasites. The previous chemist, the bloke who ran things before this one, was nice.

It's a fun sandbox fps with some interesting mechanics (I love the whole field stripping and changing out barrels/receivers to make different weapons thing) it just has a really odd premise with a lot of plotholes strewn in (though a lot of fps are like that). Has some of the most visceral and realistic takedown moves I've ever seen in a game also.

I fully agree. It's an underrated game. A lot of people got caught up on the initial bugs and choppy frame rate, but the majority of problems have been sorted out now. I kinda like how slow paced the combat is; running and gunning gets you killed very quickly. And, like yourself, I enjoy the altering weapons on the fly. I also love seeing how zones change as you gain more support from the locals.

I bet Deus ex is a marvelous game to play modded, it was a great, ambitious game but like most such games that makes it mechanically unrefined. Unfortunately then it's sequels get progressively better mechanics but the story depth and ambition drops off into hell and you end up with crap like mankind divided that feels like a really good...prologue/demo to what could have been a good game.

@Philosophus Vagus It's much better, in my opinion, with the mechanical changes implemented in the GMDX mod. I like that there's a stealth stat you can increase to make sneaking not a broken mess. I also like that you pull yourself on top of things, rather than need to stack tiny crates in order to climb on a slightly larger crate.

One downside to having not explored computer gaming much all these years; missing cool mods.

@Philosophus Vagus Yeah, it's a bit of a scam. Though, there are some nice dynamic themes out there. I recently found a cool cyberpunk theme that has its own music, icons, and an awesome animated background.

Still using Geralt from the witcher 'cause the rest... meh

@The Stranger haha I honestly couldn't remember what color it was!

soon enough the beard will come back and ask "why did you kill me father"

@TheMutantSpaceDancer It would have to give a concise dynamic statement about who the beard was, that its father was killed and that he must prepare to die.

@BloodletterQ I used to be very feminine in my teens. So feminine looking that I was often mistaken for a woman. lol. I guess I kinda liked it back then. I'm not very feminine looking any more, but I still have the long hair. I had the whole Viking look going on when I had my beard.

And I bet the geese would hate you to.

I wonder if I have a geese battler... Would that make you want to play my game more or less?

We have geese that hang out at the heated lake here in town, they're pretty tame and just love being fed by everyone. They also don't get along with the huge carp in the same pond, ha ha.

@Tai_MT See, that's why, their unbridled rage is reserved for their arch enemy the pond carp.

I'd sooner shave my head bald so I don't have to look at my face.

@Kuro DCupu I can grow muttonchops and a mustache. Hair just doesn't grow from my chin. Makes me mad sometimes, but also gives me hope for humanity as it shows that back in the 1700s when muttonchops were in fashion they likely only became popular by some guy who couldn't grow a cooler looking beard tricking others into imitating the best he could do ...wonder how one would go about pulling that off again?

Trim it nicely, claim you're Wolverine, and make a youtube video. Problem solved.

@Diretooth That's the sort of stuff I wanted. I need help to sort through what's going on in my head, so I can make sense of it and try to break free of some of the more destructive impulses and behaviours I have. Instead, I get put on more powerful psychotropic drugs.

I would advise, if you haven't already, expressing to the next therapist you find, which is likely considering what the current one did, that you are not interested in taking drugs to manage any issues you have, that you need someone you can talk to who will listen to you.

Making that clear should give you a better experience overall, which also means that if anyone you reach out to would just put you on drugs, they'll know right then and there not to bother with trying to get you to take medications.

Rather when I am out to know what really happen when I am gone and catch some thieves! (Hopefully not)

@Marquise* Lol A surveillance camera?

@The Stranger

@starlight dream Yup!

I am searching for that comedy dance troupe who made a video about a couple sleep cycle as they always woke up trashed and hurt. And they were sleeping in a weird over under every pose in the bed in a non-adult but really sportive way. XD

Oh look, it's Thomas!

Air circulation is good. And Thomas seems to be out of hiding!

I have been offline for a long time, that's for sure
