  • Just about the same here except for me it’s just that I don’t have the time to play every game I want to. The Steam Deck has helped me to play more and fit a little bit of gaming in here and there. I did get Final Fantasy XVI right at launch and set aside a lot of time to play through it.

    But to answer the OP, probably Dark Souls. I played it a little at a friend’s house years ago when it first came out but never actually bothered to buy it until the end of 2021 when it was on sale through Steam. Immediately played through it, fell in love, then played through the second one. I haven’t played the third yet, but it is on my list.







  • I met my wife dating online. Before that it was brutal. Lots of ignored messages. Lots of messaging that just ended (often on the woman’s end, but sometimes on my end). And plenty of first dates.

    When I first started dating I wasn’t picky. Basically any girl interested in me, I’d show interest. Eventually I actually applied myself to dating with purpose. This helped a bit as I was often times being the one to make the decision whether or not to even meet up with a woman. I made sure they met my criteria and wanted the same things as I did. And doing this required that I was honest with myself. I didn’t want to party, I wanted children, I wanted someone who would challenge me and call me out on my bullshit, but I also needed someone who wasn’t overly sensitive as I am often quite blunt and speak without thinking.

    Basically I had to shift from wasting my time with anyone to getting right to the point and making sure our values and trajectories in life aligned. This filtered out a lot of women. Either immediately because we didn’t want the same things or because they were put off by my directness.
