    Those time and step challenges were annoying but totally doable following a guide like the portal one was. It doesn't take that much time as you're thinking.

    If you keep your mouse cursor at the top in the blank space to the sides of the search bar you can still scroll without dealing with the mouse cursor hovering over videos

    It definitely is. SG-1 and Atlantis are fantastic shows if you enjoy sci-fi. Highly recommend.

    It was very forgettable. I watched it when it came and couldn't tell you anything that happened aside from the general premise. Can't remember a thing that happened. I would say not worth it

    No it's definitely a bad story. I also haven't finished the game yet, but it's such a weak and cliche setup that the whole story is then built upon.

    It definitely leads to some humorously dark moments like the elephant. But other than that the premise sucks. I feel like it wouldn't be that hard to have had a slightly better setup to build the story on.

    It's really weird that the game is supposed to be about working together and being a team but youre never rooting for the characters to do so despite thats what your playing it as. it's a weird disconnect where what you do doesn't match what the characters say and do.

    I only played with 4 people, seems like it'd be a lot harder with only 2

    As you upgrade your tools and level up stamina also becomes less important over time in MTaS (same in MTaP). Depending how quickly you move through the story I'd say within the first year of the game you won't be worrying to much about stamina anymore.

    In both My Time games it got to the point where I was running around trying to figure out what to use my extra stamina on to collect more resources before ending the day. But I generally enjoy playing efficiently like that.

    I find it odd you consider the stamina mechanic in MTaS to be mobile gamey when Stardew has essentially the exact same thing

    Good knowledge to have for the future though. If it happens again to you or someone you know you could warn them as well

    Just as an FYI, if you are put on a PIP, 99% of the time you are going to be let go regardless. Companies use PIPs as a way to "fire for performance" to lay people off without actually laying them off and having to pay out extra in severance or benefits and stuff.

    No matter how much you improve, you're most likely going to be let go no matter what.

    Honestly, that new player may just have a different play style that is incompatible with yours. Which will lead to either you or both being frustrated.

    A final candid conversation may be necessary to say "hey this is how we want to play, we don't want you to spoil stuff or tell us we are doing things wrong, or anything else they've done etc. If you can't get on board with that then maybe we can do a playthrough later on with you after we've finished the game" or something to that affect.

    The fact that you have two other friends who want to play the same way you do and are on board is practically a miracle in itself. Don't sacrifice that for one selfish person who can't appreciate what YOU want to do with YOUR game. Appreciate the group you have because that's a hard and rare thing to find

    Just went and watched the two videos, that's hilarious. Hopefully the courts will fuck that company up for being idiots and trying to sue over this
