Aahh. I took Algebra II last year; I had the choice between College Algebra and Precalculus this year. College Algebra gets me college credit, but on the other hand, Precalculus is much more advanced, and lets me take Calculus my Senior year. And if I go into Computer Science, already having credit for Calculus would be a HUGE help.


Pre-Calc is mandatory at my school for graduation.

Hah!
Most of my class would fail it, tbh. Multiplying matrices and all that? Pfft, no, they couldn't do it. They have trouble with factoring; some of the stuff we're doing is like, factoring and then matrix multiplication and then inserted into a formula. Or something.

I can't multiple matrices either, so. I guess I'm screwed.

All you gotta do is use a calculator!
Thank god my teacher lets us use calculators with it now. I could hardly do 2x2 multiplying matrices, much less the more common 3x3. Terribly confusing.

You have ADD.
And you write.

Wow, you must be so much more dedicated than me, even if it's not too much. I write if I feel like it, and thassit.

It's why I usually can't write more than a post a day, even if I really want to. I try, it's just hard. My ADD is rather mild, too. But it's being treated through strategy games and so on. I still leave ice cream out on the counter all the time, though.

Ooooh!
A really long-term but rather slow-paced game is Civilization 5! You should try Civ5, it's real fun. I enjoy building up from nothing to a powerful empire capable of conquering anything, provided they don't have very many allies or aren't actually more powerful than me >.>

Civilization is great fun.

Wait, do you play very many video games?
Because I play craptons of video games.

I can't focus on Civ, it's too slow. I force myself to play Fire Emblem because I love it so much. And yeah, I play tons. I have a PS3 and I sometimes play my uncle's Xbone. I also have a Steam account.

I keep hearing about Fire Emblem, but I have no idea what it is. I'm not much for anime type stuff. What's the story, anyhow?

I'm a dedicated PC gamer, and I have only played console when playing Halo: ODST with my brother. Annnnd Black Ops II on occasion because I no longer have access to my gaming computer >.>

Hmm.
Oh!
World of Warships is a free-to-play game that's rather slow-paced. You're playing as a WWII-era warship, whether American, Japanese, Russian, or... I think they've added German ships, now. Carriers have the slowest combat, since you usually sit back and launch two types of bombers and fighters to attack enemy ships and aircraft, with a more tactical interface, and destroyers have the fastest combat, since they're the fastest, they have powerful but slow torpedoes, and they have very little health or armor.

If you want to build up patience and such, playing as a Cruiser or a Battleship would be good. The USS New York is a rather slow ship, but reliable. It's heavy-hitting, rather inaccurate, and slow, so it's great! It can take a minute or two just to spot the first enemy, and the actual battle can last for the entire 30 minutes a match can be.

The story of Fire Emblem changes in every game. The most basic components stay the same, including what it is: a fantasy war strategy game. And, thanks for the suggestion, but strategy video games aren't for me. I prefer strategy board games, actually. Like Risk, Bounce off and Mancala. Mancala is my absolute favorite.

bu-bu-but World of Warships is a shooter! Granted, you're a warship with a buncha guns, but your perspective is third-person around the ship, and you have to aim and fire and all that. You just can't turn around really quick!

...but if it is still not your cup of tea, very well.

So what games doya play?

Stuff you'd find boring, I'd imagine. Fire Emblem, Harvest Moon, Pokemon, Rune Factory, Tales franchise, RWBY. Weaboo stuff, mostly. I also like Skyrim and Fallout, but I can't play either for very long. I also like Saints Row, Grand Theft Auto, Borderlands, Left 4 Dead, y'know, that type of thing.

Hum.

Well, take a look at my list of Steam games, and see if any of them interest you...? Maybe over the summer, we could play something!

I don't see why not. I'm rather social. I like to get a Skype group together during the summer to play bad MMOs and stuff anyway.

Oh!
So you're like hyperactive and stuff, right?
ORION: Dino Horde is a real fun game. It caaaan get a little slow sometimes, but it can also get SUPER hectic. Here's the game explained:
Holy shit the fucking dinosaurs want to kill me and that generator that I need to keep alive and oh my god there are even larger dinosaurs and they scary!

It's a really fun game that I'm really good at- but unfortunately, it's fairly boring without any friends to play it with and revel in awesome feats.

Also, burb. shower.

I'm far from hyperactive. I'm a tired, droll and boring individual. I suppose I've become more friendly and confident as of late, though. But you had me at dinosaurs. Is it free?

Just remembered that ORION: Dino Horde has since been changed to ORION: Prelude. They're supposedly working on a very, very much bigger game where you can travel to new planets and make clans and build bases, fight robots and other people and dinosaurs and etc. etc. etc. Hence the Prelude.

About the Price
Unfortunately, no.
Fortunately, it's $0.99, and I just bought a gift version to stick in my inventory.
So, fortunately, you get it free.

There's also a second game that's top-down, and is more... mild, I suppose. Because you can be really good or really bad at Prelude, while Guardians of Orion (Top-down) is obviously much easier, since it's a 2-D plane (Albeit with a very nice 3-D modeling on everything). I just got that and an extra game too, since both Guardians of Orion and Orion Prelude is $.99.

Also, in terms of just showing how funny it can be, Markiplier does it well. The video gets better later on, I swear.
