I'm not qualified to answer this even though I want to help you. If you are considering suicide please don't. Please find a helpline and talk to someone who can help you so much better than me.

That's just arch

I love your spooky story!! That would freak me out

 

For the record I don't believe in the supernatural but I love hearing others people's stories and believe that most people aren't lying.

I've personally had a few experiences that I cannot explain and that, in the moment, were quite scary.

What's your paranormal experience?

How long will this verbal paradox persist? "Indefinitely" said I, for it will eternally bounce between truth and lies until time itself collapses under the weight of its own recursion. The paradox, unaffected by the death of time will persist nonetheless.

The Last Of Us is something I've wanted to play for years. It was THE GAME that made me regret buying an Xbox.

Eventually I left Xbox and now I'm on PC exclusively. I still want to play The Last Of Us but I'm not paying full price based on the reviews. I waited like 8 years or whatever, I can wait longer until they fix the PC port, if ever. And if not I'll wait until it's 20 bucks.

I never played 7 because it only came on CD. Our computer wasn't good enough for it growing up.

Years later I did try 8....it wasn't to my liking.

Yeah, IMO the two best Kings Quests were 3 and 6. Both with Prince Alexander/Gwydion.

King's Quest 5 with King Graham was also pretty good.

The one with Princess Rosella was probably my least favorite.

I never finished the latest one that came out a few years ago.

I recently purchased King Quest and Space Quest collections from GOG.

I didn't have a CD ROM drive as a kid so I only got to play The disc version. Hearing the voices is so much better than I expected.

No, my criteria for staying is that it works on an app that isn't Reddit

I've made the switch to Lemmy and it wasn't easy. Now that I understand the way the federated thing works I get it but, honestly I was confused.

The only thing that I miss is search. I don't know if it's my app or what but there's no way, I can find, to search through posts on Lemmy.

Yeah in 2006 Sierra got bought out by Vivendi, I think, which later merged with Activision killing all of younger me's dreams.

Sierra was a huge part of my childhood.

 

I'm hoping for a Sierra Online renaissance.

I wrote Sierra a letter as a kid and they wrote me back encouraging me to go to school for Computer Science so I could maybe work with them one day.

Did that ever get 11 year old me excited.

And I went to school for computer engineering....and Sierra vanished.

I hope Microsoft brings Sierra back.

My personal hope for this deal is some sort of return of the old Sierra library.

Quest for Glory, Space Quest, King's Quest.

I loved those old Sierra games when I was a kid. Now that I'm a dad the games haven't quite aged well enough to play but the plot to King's Quest 3 is a favorite bedtime story to tell my kids.
