The great thing about art is that if you say it's art, it is art. No one has to agree with you.

Its $45 for one module then $15 to add the other, making a standard $60 price for both. Is this not a good thing?

I sure as hell would love it if Battlefield released with similar pricing structures, being able to purchase just the MP.

Considering how much money they've been backed with, and the eco-system they have with selling game assets, the extra cost for splitting the game is a fucking rort.

This game concerns me purely because it sets a dangerous precedent for other titles to try and attempt.

If EA did this everyone would be fucking rioting, but because it's this Chris Roberts douchebag, or whatever his name his, everyone is busy gagging on his cock.

The fact that the word "literally" has become part of the non-literal terms.
"I was literally dying", - No you weren't.
 

We are all dying in a literal sense, from the moment we are born.

We're not, actually.

It's between the ages of 20 - 25 that our cells start dying faster than they are replaced.

Stupid fucking whinge-bags who use the internet to cram their self-entitled whinge-fest story down your throat.

"this is my story, read it. It's special because it happened to me".

FUCK OFF.

Ooooh.. but on the upside, pierced tits are great.

Hell yes they are. Somehow they've also made them more 'boobier'.

Mrs. got her tits pierced 2 weeks ago.

Haven't been able to grab them in that many weeks.

Sad Rii is sad.

I'm genuinely under the impression that they locked down too much content for the beta.

I'm certain that the gameworld will seem a lot more active once the game goes retail.

I see a lot of excuses and not a lot of doing.

Do, or do. There is no not.

People would be applying for that job because OMG GARAGE PROJECT, HOW AWESOME WOULD IT BE TO WORK FOR THEM. I agree, working for a forward thinking beer company like Garage Project would be hella dope.

Except, you wouldn't be working for them. You wouldn't be a staff member, you wouldn't be privy to any sweet perks they might offer, any sweet work-day shenanigans or lunch time piss-ups.

You're a freelancer, someone who gets an email with a half-arsed brief saying "can you do this before next week" while you sit at your PC at home scrolling through self-important design blogs that collate what they think are examples of great design and lists of TOP 10 HIDDEN MESSAGES IN CORPORATE LOGOS.

You'd get none of the wank-factor.

Full employee or nothing.

(working in corporate branding has jaded me somewhat - it's delicious).

You just know she's going to be fucking around on him.

64
They want a freelancer so they can only pay them per hour, not a salary. You only do that shit as a new graduate or if you're struggling for work.

Also, as a freelancer, I'm responsible for my own GST bullshit, fuck that.

65
Going by Garage Projects stuff, they don't want a graphic designer, they want an illustrator.

Also - freelance, never again. I did a year of freelancing/contracting and I got sick of invoicing my time and tracking my hours only to have to chase clients to pay me.

ITT - chumps judging a game off a 2hr BETA.

Content was heavily locked down.

Let me guess, you all played solo as well?

The Windows 10 update system is now a fucking joke.

I have to dig through the god damn HDD to find it to begin with, and when you find it, it over simplifies what the hell is going on.

I wouldn't care if the guy was a little more transparent and was just trying to get rid of it for the land, but the plot is tiny as it had been subdivided recently and the description in the auction is just pure bullshit. He's trying to pull a fast one.

Exterior is buggered.

Has cracks and in some places greenery growing from it halfway up.

Water would run down the front and then come back in the window frames because the roof is flat and nothing on the edge of the roof to guide the water away from just running directly down the front. How'd he fix this? Have the roofer seal the gaps with filler, locking in the moisture, clever move...

Interior is just as stuffed. Black mould would collect on the wallpaper, if you touched it and smelled your hand it'd smell like you just stroked a wet dog that rolled in its own shit. Cracks in the roof that have actually sagged, we had resigned ourselves to coming back to a house that had a collapsed roof after a huge deluge soon after we moved in.

Water stains on wallpaper that got in through the shitty roof:


Black mould build up on the curtains:


One of the roof leaks. This is also sagging quite a bit:


And how most of the window frames were. This is in the bathroom so you can imagine that the entire frame has probably rotted from the inside out:

Nah, it wasn't.

Anyway, the scum lord has now just put the house on the market.

http://www.trademe.co.nz/property/residential-property-for-sale/auction-1020811478.htm

Those photos are at LEAST a year old. Nowhere near indicative of what state the property is actually in.

Quote
Newly renovated, sunny and modernised two bedroom and study home. Open plan living with french doors opening onto a sunny and private courtyard. Designer kitchen with granite bench tops, and lovely features. Gas heating in the living areas, complemented by a pot belly stove in the study (this has a wetback). Landscaped and fully fenced section, with ample off-street parking.
Building inspection and report has been done on this property.


I'm gonna take a guess and assume the building report and inspection was done well before we moved in, as one was never done when we lived there and we've only been out of the place for 5 days.

It has not been modernized. The wetback stove doesn't work as it is not attached to the flu and never has been. It hasn't been landscaped, we simply kept the gardens in good condition. No off street parking as the hospital workers take these along with being right next to the netball court so they're taken up during the weekend and there are yellow no parking signs directly outside of the property.

He's obviously realised that the money required to bring it up to code so it can be livable is too much and is wanting to flick it off by bullshitting any would-be buyers (due to the private sale).

Would appreciate anyone going to the auction and reporting the listing as "listing contains false or misleading information" _b

No progress pics sorry, Tish.

I over trained, apparently stressed out my nervous system and was told to lay off the gym for a while (was fatiguing into my first set on everything).

Did my first circuit the other day after a bit of time off and almost died, hah.

Also, where'd you go on Facebook? Did you disappear?
