    I don't have a long description as to why, but I've loved my Windows 7 computer since I had it. I always liked the two windows side by side option.

    If Resident Evil HD Remake is anything to go by, I can definitely (and unfortunately) see why classic survival horror games died out in the mid 2000's. Admittedly, most if not all of these issues are due to it being faithful to the original 1996 release.

    The limited inventory is more annoying than anything else. I get what they were trying, but only six items (on Jill at least) and that includes weapons, extra ammunition, herbs, and even keys, is just straight up archaic. Glad that went away.

    Having to literally examine and turn items around just to get progress is also very annoying. There was nothing to hint at this mechanic: I only found out via a walkthrough. At least one note would have been an acceptable hint.

    Being unable to attack downed enemies without gunfire is also archaic as hell.

    That's about all I can think of right now.

    Just curious... Did they keep the campy dialogue? Because that was one of the best parts of the entire game.

    Kinda miss those terrible camera angles though. Half the fun was not being able to see what's attacking your character.

    EDIT:

    This is so accurate that it hurts.

    The dialogue and voice acting is a lot better than the PS1 original, but it still has some cheese.

    It's not that fun when you can only NOT get damaged by a zombie if you have a limited resource like a dagger or grenade. I'm used to shaking enemies off from other games, but in this one, you will always lose health if they touch you. This includes the fast dogs.

    Wow. I'm hyped. Those are really nice. The music is epic.

    Wow.

    That moment when you join an RP based on a series you like and you realize the guy running it is kind of a jerk.
    Looks interesting.

    So now it kind of sounds like I'm just working my normal hours instead of the 42 hours. Maybe that offering to Loki worked. Though it kind of has me wondering what he'll want in return.

    I want to see Taskmaster in the MCU. Can that happen?

    Some people think that is supposed to be Taskmaster.
    I'm not in that camp.
    The spoiler is for Agents of SHIELD, btw.

    eeeeeeeeeh

    I kind of started watching Agents of SHIELD but I gave up on it because the only characters that stood out to me where Coulson and Maria Hill.

    I've seen that theory but I'm not in that camp either. Because Taskmaster is Tony Masters and not .

    Well, he gets better at the end of Season 1, worse at the end of season 2, and is so far pretty interesting in season 3. Regardless, they could find a way to change the name or change the persona. It wouldn't be the first time they did it. Not that I'm rooting for that, mind you, but it wouldn't be unprecedented.

    I suppose I could give it a another shot. I tend to prefer to binge watch things anyway.

    And I guess Tasky's just one of those characters that I'm really picky about how he's portrayed. One of my favorites really.

    I want the full game of Stella Glow. Why does it come out November 11? Why is it $50? This is terrible. Just give it to me.

    Gonna download the demo now to see if its good.

    On the matter of jobs...I guess my job is okay. But anxiety is one heck of a drug and everyday I fight the urge to run away, get up and go to work.

    It wasn't always like this, tho. I used to get there late and didn't want to be there. All because I was afraid. A few months in, its been a slow process but I've learned to cope with my emotions.

    At least in some aspects. There are still things which make me want to run for the hills. It's not easy.

    I had a dream a few days ago that my brother punched one of Donald Trump's sons and I apologized to his father and it was all so awkward.

    I'd say. Faking a sincere apology to Donald Trump would be incredible difficult!

    The thing is, I'd genuinely apologize for unwarranted violence like that. I'm not a fan of the guy (SHOCKER) but I don't wish harm upon him or his family (at least, not physical or psychological....)
