I guess they don't enjoy working for free quite so much. :)

Comment on What's the best counter argument to "Well, if I don't do it somebody else will" in ~talk
Nemoder Link ParentCorrect, but those kinds of people you aren't going to be able to convince anyway; They have already made their decision.Correct, but those kinds of people you aren't going to be able to convince anyway; They have already made their decision.

Nemoder LinkI guess my argument would be to in turn ask: What kind of person do you want to be? Your actions now will shape how you view yourself, how you view the world and how you treat others.I guess my argument would be to in turn ask: What kind of person do you want to be?

True, there isn't much cheese in the box stuff but I guess if you're already adding half a stick of butter then a glass of 2% isn't that much more. And as a full grown man-child I'll also accept chocolate milk as a viable alternative.

However there are lots of older board games I really loved playing like Chess, Risk, Monopoly etc. But there was one game I was never allowed to play as a kid due to conservative parents: Dungeons and Dragons. And not being allowed to hang out with friends who played it made it harder to find a group later in life that wanted an older anti-social newb to join in. Only in the last year or so did I finally find a group to try it with and it's been pretty fun!

I actually like the mechanic in Valheim as it lets me know it's time to go home, get food, rest, arrows and upgrades. Otherwise I'm tempted to stay out a bit longer than I should and get stomped by the next 2 star critter that I don't have the stamina to run from.

I had been trying to completely explore the Remnant camp and do all the quests there but they were getting quite difficult. I finally decided it might be worth risking the trip to Nemeton and when I get there the first quests were suddenly very easy again. Not what I was expecting at all! I think just pays better to follow the story more than trying to peak into every corner first. -

The game has also been challenging to me because I grew up with linear JRPGs and western ones always feel too open to me so I end up trying to systematically explore everything which just doesn't work out that well.

It feels more like an early Baldur's Gate game but with action instead of turn based combat. The focus also isn't about repetitively killing monsters since you get waay more experience just completing quests. I've also found it fairly challenging since it gives you the freedom to explore a lot of places that will just flatten you at low levels. While it's not what I expected I am really starting to enjoy it.
