It was a vicious battle. The Potter Wasp had lazily flown into my room, completely unaware of the restricted air space that I had domain over. Naturally, I had to protect my sovereing air-space, using any and all means at my disposal. Wielding the mighty electronic bug zapper that I had named “Frank Zappa”, I hit the bastard with enough Thundaga to give Eskom a load-shedding panic. I had won. Or so I thought, when I noticed another Potter Wasp hovering next to me. Clever girl…

      Blasphemy!

      You aren’t allowed to use Evolve gifs until you buy the game!

            Sigh, I want to play Evolve and preferably before it sits unused like Destiny.

            Exactly, this happened with Destiny. Paid for the season pass now I’m forced to play it every time new content releases.

            Also nice reference, they were sitting in the bar drinking before the first fight. The Narator talked about all the shit he’s lost.

            …at the rifle scope?

            Well, it’s the first time someone has called it that.
            This is awkward.

            Indeed, some “magnification” needed before you can see it!

            I really did not read it like that.
            It should have been “through” the rifle scope, not “at” the rifle scope ;P

    10,000 hours on Crusader Kings.
    I managed 40min before I moved on to something else.
    It really is the type of game that is great for some and not so great for others. Personally I do see the appeal, but I just get bored too quickly with that one.

          Just don’t make too much eye contact and they won’t suspect a thing.
