I know Stinky Dragon edits stuff out to keep the run time down. I assume for live streams the DMs just use the “it’s dead when it narratively fits/needs to happen to stop bad rolls from dragging this out an hour” rule and players know to focus more instead of spending 30min on cock jokes after finding a cock fight that then devolves into a heist plan to free all animals in the village and make them the masters of their own fates lol.
Iirc everything’s loaded as one map so you don’t have long loading times going from lot to lot. So if your sim goes on a date downtown you don’t have to then load downtown to continue playing and then reload the sim house when they go home.
Idk about hit, but decent success maybe? Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers wouldn’t be bad with a re-release that fixes the controls (gameplay is mainly a series of mini-games which the timing is off for making attempting completing them a rage inducing task) and the travel map areas redone to have actual purpose instead of “here’s a zany spot with cyclical weather where you can throw stuff around to play with our gravity code”. The story was pretty good/interesting imo as a Final Fantasy version of Cowboy Bebop.
US, 30s, yep. When I needed a new car decided to get one cause I was driving an hour to work and thought it would help me with driver’s trance (cue sad laugh track…). Ended up having to order a new car cause I couldn’t find one I wanted that was manual within a reasonable driving distance that wasn’t complete junk. Didn’t really help my problem, but I do love driving it lol.
Kind of weird because automatics make me uncomfortable to drive now, they accelerate so easy I feel like I have less control (though I’m sure this is just a skill issue on my part).
I also thought no one used facetime until I worked retail recently… The amount of people I saw come in on a facetime calls where they both just had their cameras pointed at the ceiling was bizarre and boggling.
It’s not the kraft variety.
