That would be quite convenient. Depressing I am bad at being a tyrant.

I am rather weird as I like high pitched when female, finding contemporary annoying, yet like low pitched in males. There are exceptions like Lacrimosa, but as a general rule higher voices just really get under my skin.

As I said, I figured you might get into it. It is that extremely classical metal band like Therion, but heavier. Their most recent is entirely growls, but I feel they lost their talent musically there. Elegant...but Dying was perhaps the high point, ignoring the annoying vocals.

I am not really one for embarrassment, so it is more that I think about all the people that hurt me and think about how I can't really enjoy anything. I question the purpose of living and fear running out of content that I could potentially enjoy, the remaining just being vapid emptiness. I question what I really am looking for, which I don't really know, and feel that I might perhaps hate more than I should due to depression that means I am just butchering everything I attempt to check out. Except then I can't have depression because my life is perfect.

Haven't tried either, my nostalgia is more for stuff like Galactic Battlegrounds, Thief 2, Shark: Hunting the Great White, the early Harry Potter games, Spiderman (2000 game), Empire Earth, Matchbox Emergency, and The Sims.

Very intriguing indeed. They don't have confidence normally, but by pretending to be someone else they can have confidence. Not sure how that works, shrugs.

Sounds like classical music. The problem with so much classical music is that it isn't something that flows as a whole, it tends to stop and start a lot, feeling like endless sections of notes that tend to drone on without purpose. This is why stuff like Virgin Black isn't for me anyway, the lack of a complete whole annoys me. I feel like it is music for people wishing to seem more intelligent, giving pretentiousness to something by attempting to be more vain than really is needed. Furthermore, there is no real emotion there.

Yeah, in the era before DVRs, that was quite the convenience. I remember recording obscure shows that I can only barely remember and for the purposes of nostalgia hope to one day find again. There was some show involving time travelers who were running from FBI agents or something, there was an episode where they were tiny like dolls for an alien society. Then there was a show where humans and dinosaurs lived together and talked to one another as the dinosaurs had gained man's level of intelligence. Due to my obsession with dinosaurs as a kid, I have a lot of nostalgia for early 2000s dinosaur related things.

It would be worth an attempt, and yes, it should be far better time-wise. I still have a tendency to be tired or just not feel up for recording on certain days, but otherwise things can work well. Of course, recording when we did before (at 3 AM), is pretty much impossible as I need to stop by 11 PM here.

Precisely. When I do this stuff, I like to put forth the best effort and analyze things to the best ability I can. There are a few avenues I am not very meticulous on, some of the Aftershock Toolbox levels have items that fell out at the start that I probably didn't document, because it can be quite the annoyance to shift through all of those entities to figure out which one is the flawed entity. I focused on it when I felt it was noticeable, such as a level being a lot harder than intended because said issue was happening.

But yes, as a rule I try to put forth a lot of detail and analyze things so that few to no stones are left. I try to give an attention to these obscure levels like they were vanilla levels, making it all try to flow as a continuous whole. It really bugs me to leave something behind and claim it is broken; I get determined to find a solution, to know it isn't broken and that it was user error. Knowing that others probably won't care about the things I focus on means that it is even more of a weight, since if I don't figure it out it is likely it will always be assumed broken. This determination is what got a few mods I thought were broken to properly work. I am really curious about a mysterious file that isn't even stored in a folder, it is just a compiled file. I will cover that one in a bit, when I hit that point, but it is something that intrigues me.

This is also why I play Quake and touched Oblivion outside of Steam. Skyrim is the only game I use Steam for, since there is no alternative to said validation. It just isn't something I feel comfortable using and something I just cannot bring myself to like. The convenience is welcome and I don't even have a functional CD drive at the moment, but I just rather rip the files onto a USB from another computer instead of dealing with the scary limitation that is Steam.

Most people seem to not notice or care about said mechanic. I tried asking Oblivion fans about it and they just told me I shouldn't be using immersion mods if I didn't want immersion. I wanted a hunger mechanic that gave incentive to move around and eat some food instead of using it as vendor trash, not something that resulted in me waiting 5 real hours. I wanted a mechanic that gambled the resources I had on hand, not something that resulted in me just sitting in a monster closet for two hours for the next script to happen and get stuck in another monster closet. Everything felt frustrating, which is depressing, because Oblivion can be quite fun when not dealing with the frustrating waiting periods. This is why I moved to Skyrim, I just got tired of all the annoying waiting. Hey, Oblivion fixed Morrowind's problems of static worlds and too much predictability.

Interesting, since I remember the first Tomb Raider needing to be played in a VN a few years back because it didn't work right in DOSBox.

Yes, it is quite beneficial for the games that need it. Outside of Tomb Raider 1, which I played in a VN and thus didn't need wrappers, I just have never had a purpose for Glide. Sort of that era that I just never touch because I am too busy with older titles or with DirectDraw oriented ones.

Would be quite useful, wouldn't it? OCD to counter other OCD people :P
