Video Games: The General Discussion & Community Thread

You know those controversies brought on by greedy and shitty practices that have zealots defend rigorously? Then it get worse. So you have people's unbridled praise turn into "well erm, nothing was ever that good anyway." And then it get worse. And worse. Think New Star Wars Movies. Or Epic Store. (Or Fallout 76, Or Blizzard, really take your pick.) Well, here's yet another one that has reached that stage.

And the ones who called it from the start can only smile knowing they were right all along.

But hey, it's giving their competition (Tem-Tem) free publicity, so there's a silver lining in everything. :D

Current Mood in One Gif

I Cheated

This month is devolving into a Butch Hartman cartoon where "And then the opposite happens..." has become a predictable path and it's really getting old...
Example: I'm going to bed early for once so I can write tomorrow. :D
Reality: Get miserably ill from food poisoning and be unable to sleep. c:

*And because no one wants to look at sick things, here's cute thing instead.*

Burn-out and Hiatuses

Everyone basically said the same thing, but they're all correct. If I may be a little more precise, it's a vital necessity to consider others well-being and speak directly to all involved, to express what's bothering you and that you need personal time to sort things out. You can always write another day, life and personal health is more important at the end of the day.

If your writer's block and burnout isn't backed up by anything bigger, perhaps it is still a sign that you need to do something else. (Exercise, sleep, eat more etc.) And if you think that will effect your output and make things move slower, same rule above applies, just say so. I can assure you, speaking is the best thing you can do. As no one worthwhile gets upset when your honest and personable.

Don't message a sidebar that no one will read. Don't go radio silent. Don't shift blame and make it about someone else. Whether it's a specific RP that you lost interest in, or have burnout from writing in general. Be direct, be honest and say what you personally need to do. And don't be afraid to give details if you have them. (I.E, How long of a break you may need.)

Post a random fact about yourself.

I nailed down my 'New Years Resolution' early. Take advantage of my new apartment location (after I spend my December moving shit in.) and go to one of three supposed gyms near my place and get a membership. So I can get more active again.
