If you're playing New Vegas just for the achievements, you're doing it wrong.

Fillipk is also updating his game.

Maybe this is a bastard game disguised as a beginner's mafia, and everyone besides us is scum :o

The clerk thought you were under 25, take it as a compliment
It sounds like you're quoting the signs they have in liquor stores here.
I was asked for my ID today while buying some cooking wine  ???
How alcoholic is it?

In the UK, at least in the big four supermarkets, you can get ID'd for non-alcoholic beers.

Yep. So far, the list of people who submitted orders is... Culise.

Boooo

This is how I know I didn't send my moves to myself. This time.

15081
I did submit some orders right?
Not to me, at least.
Might've accidentally sent them to yourself, Kashyyk. I've done that more times than I really should admit...

15082
Stop making me paranoid that I didn't send in orders, Kashyyk :P

Also pleased I called it D1.
Yes, but you also called me, with the same certainty... *pbbbt*

(The thievery, and thus Hector's change in motive on D2, probably confused me most.  And I've already explained several other bits where I know I was sent off-track, by my own faults.)

Nah that was me doing super hopeful gambit. I'm glad you didn't call me out on essentially assigning you the Neutral role :))

I'm broke. I want to buy a game real bad because two of my best friends are buying it-The game is Helldivers-And I'd love to join them. I checked my wallet and it's empty save for my lunch money which I'll need so I can EAT.

Ffuaaack.

It's free on Playstation Plus!

But you probably don't have that.

MoC -> Minitrue

I would prefer to make it a comfortable environment for any museum-goers, so $22,500 would be more to my liking. Though perhaps after I deal with the issues regarding our rehabilitation centers?

Given you are presently setting up a newspaper, perhaps you'd like to send some journalists round to tour the facilities and interview some... willing rehabbers? Perhaps making sure your editors emphasise that the rehabbers are in fact being trained in order to find work when their sentences are over, and are not being overworked.

They often seem to just add grinding and boredom into otherwise fine games. I'd hate them if it wasn't so easy to just ignore their existence. Just looking at Shadow of Mordor, you get achievements for doing all rescue missions (the ones that get old halfway through or earlier), same for survival missions (except those got old in ten minutes). Even something as cool as "execute a burning berserker" fails to attract since I've already burned and executed and executed burning orcs a ton. There's nothing inherently special about executing a burning a berserker specifically, and I'm not going to grind one to tick an imaginary box.

Achievements are right up there with Busywork Simulator 201X. Clearly there's a market for them, even if I completely fail to see the attraction.

The only achievement from Shadow of Mordor that was kinda different was saving... 10? I can't remember the specific number. Anyway, saving however many hostages it was while on riding one of the cat things, in 90 seconds. There was literally no reason for you to even try to do that unless you were going for the platinum trophy.

Well trophies in and of themselves are a bit pointless.

They're essentially "you played the game! well done!" though there are some that are slightly ridiculous "you did something you never would have done if there wasn't a trophy for it! well done!"
