Aggressive growth…
Still playing Dorfromantik. My map is so large now that it takes about a minute to load. I think my score is around 800k. I have 50+ tiles in my stack but am about to complete a bunch of flag quests so that number will shoot back up again.
I’m kind of tired of playing but also can’t stop because I’m wondering if I can beat the record.
You must not have seen my reply in that thread:
My husband and I both have been using Tempur-Pedic office chairs for about 15 years. Starting in 2004, we both worked desk jobs from home (he still does, I only recently shifted careers) and both play video games so we have used the shit out of our chairs, and they are still good. I like that the seat is wide enough so I can fold my legs up under me if I want to.
Combining different tastes and textures is a huge thing in Filipino cuisine. In the ice cream, the sweetness of the ice cream and corn is complemented (and arguably enhanced) by the saltiness of the cheese. The corn also provides a little crunch. I think it’s that same combo in elote that makes it so good.
One of my favorite snacks from my childhood that I still enjoy to this day is green mango with bagoong (fermented shrimp paste). The green mango is crunchy and sour while the bagoong is salty with a good dose of umami.
By vanilla I just mean like the basic white soft-serve ice cream.
Similar to a fruit bowl with cottage cheese.
Filipino here, grew up with the stuff and never realized how weird it could be perceived as until now. It’s more like a cheesy vanilla flavor with bits of corn.
We also have a creamy vanilla sort of popsicle with red mung beans in it that I suspect we got from the Chinese.
Husband convinced me to jump into War of Rights with him, so I bought it (currently 50% off on Steam) and we’ve been nubbing around together.
That’s great to hear that everything is still going with a healthy population. WvW is definitely a ton of fun.
I remember one skirmish we had where we came upon an enemy “blob” by a small lumber mill (I think?) and they all jumped up and stacked on a tree stump. For what purpose, I’m not sure, but I like to think they thought they had the higher ground. We wiped them, of course.
How is the server population in GW2? I used to play that a lot and really enjoyed the WvW action too.
Dorfromantik – so relaxing! Planning to try to finish a couple other games (Guardians of the Galaxy, Far Cry 6) over the winter break too, and maybe start new ones (RDR).
I’ve been trying to play Guardians of the Galaxy but have been too busy with work and school since September. I only recently saw the movie based on a friend’s recommendation, and I loved it. Thought it would make a fun RPG, and sure enough there was already one, and it was on sale when I looked so I snagged it. Maybe I’ll finish it someday.
I’m a casual gamer and I used to play Overwatch. There’s always the practice range or training room, I forget what it’s called. But what really got me learning all the characters was playing Mystery Heroes over and over.
I haven’t played too deep into it, only gotten past 2-3 boss fights, but it’s fun so far. I’m enjoying the gameplay and the music. The story is pretty much the same flavor as the movie.
Many years ago there was a newscaster in southern California whose last name was Beard but he didn’t have a beard. I forget his first name but let’s say it was Gary. My husband and I called him Gary “I don’t have a beard because my last name is Beard” Beard and we thought it was the funniest thing.
I only recently watched Guardians of the Galaxy because a coworker whose opinions I hold in high regard recommended it. I enjoyed it very much and thought it would make a fun video game. Lo and behold, there is one! So I bought it and have been playing that when work and school allow.
Someone should start a community for that.
