I was speaking if this auction event is replacing the sale for this year but that seems to not be the case after all, so all is well. it got taken down 3 hours in after people started gaming the system though, lol

Games I'll be binging include whack rear end anime time travel Final Fantasy 13-2 starting now, and I guess Ground Zeroes whenever that hits steam plus anything I might pick up during the sale, although I can't think of what.

enjoy school/college, kids. those christmas breaks are gunna disappear and then you only get eve/xmas off :( i do miss being able to sit through and play a bunch of games over the 3 weeks. i'll probably just slowly be playing through the wiiu backlog but taking it slowly and savoring it, so i probably won't even get 1 game finished

not if you become a teacher/professor, well worth the sacrifice to income and job security in order to game more efficiently imho :smug:

Not if you go back to school as an adult on the government and Dad's money. Plus, that way, you are able to appreciate Game Time that much more.

yeah i mean i could take a few vac days or something, plus i get NY and NY Eeve off so just taking about 3 vac days means i could have about a 10+ day break which I'll probably do.

still not quite as fun as having the satisfaction of finishing 5+ gently caress hard ball finals and then can veg out with some booze/weed and play games while snowboarding on/off for 3 weeks without a care in the world.

And then you get a job and check your work laptop all the time and shudder a little bit every time your work phone dings for an email at like 10 PM or later.

But on the other hand, making mad bank and working for one of the few decent companies in the country. What is a gamer to do?
