    As someone who may not have a PC that can run games properly for the next one or two years (will be abroad for grad school so the desktop will stay here if I can't find a buyer) I genuinely hope...

    I might go back to finishing The Outer Worlds if I feel like it.

    I wonder what's the deal with white nationalism and Norway. The country itself isn't really racist but somehow it manages to attract all these lowlife white nationalists.

    Was supposed to go out with friends and get piss drunk but I ended up getting sick after a concert that I've been to earlier this week. So all I'm doing right now is just playing a plethora of games like Sims 4, Euro/murican Truck sims, HoI4, Roblox and watching Disenchantment S2.

    I'd love to play Destiny 2 and Overwatch but my throat prevents me from being able to speak at a reasonable volume so until then I'll be limited to the aforementioned games.

    Not that popular. Though I do like it this way. Comments feel more genuine and well-thought unlike reddit which recently had a huge influx of users from other social media sites.

    Funny how I end up stumbling upon this post after listening to "Love Me I'm A Liberal" not more than an hour ago.

    Fellow Turk here!

    Planning on doing masters in Global Politics & Societal Change in Sweden next year so that I can (hopefully) find a paid PhD position somewhere in Europe.

    From the looks of it, parents will have to pay for the tuition since my GPA is nowhere high enough to get any kind of scholarship whatsoever. I'll probably find a part-time job to pay for the rent and groceries.

    Yakuza and Persona series are pretty decent. I'd also recommend Detroit: Become Human.

    All Points Bulletin (APB) and it's "successor" APB:Reloaded.

    I swear I used to play it religiously back in both middle and high school (it was my first online game) until it was unplayable due to tons of issues ranging from the lag, optimization, lack of content, not giving a shit about the cheaters to playing the favorites when it comes to the community.

    I've always played games ever since I was 6 starting with Quake Arena but APB is the game that led me to build my first custom rig and get hooked on online gaming.

    Oh and I suppose it's also worth mentioning that I've completed Bully almost 20 times on PS2. It's still my fav SP game to this day.
