Hey, im not doing so good right now man, thank you for asking though. I'm not gonna be posting here anymore but I might check in here every now and then to respond to profile posts and DMs if needed. Whats the conversation about? I can hang around to DM you or something if you want? Im not posting in threads anymore though, I've had enough. Im having a really shitty time IRL and Im just fed up of certain people too.

Not now, maybe I need to consult with you in the future
Life is hard, I know
I hope you don't give up and defeat all problems
There is no way for men like us, but we have no choice but to win and hold our heads high

Ah sure thing. Aye thank you, I am struggling honestly, finding very little reason to keep going anymore but I appreciate that thank you. I keep trying to visualise a better life, stuff I want and need, stuff I can try to get somehow but almost imagining myself in a better place, happier, healthier, safer, more peace etc. And thus by stuff, I mean a house somewhere more quiet and isolated where I dont have an insane

neighbour making my life hell for 8 years now and so on.

Yeah, I guess thats why a lot of people like difficult games like Dark Souls, its similar to real life, the odds are so heavily against us and you can either try to fight back and struggle, get smarter, stronger, faster, more endurance etc or you can just give up and "lose", get a "game over".

What you said sounds like something Shanks or Rayleigh would say
Kizaruber Eats
Kizaruber Eats
actually, I like that. Well probably a certain amount of characters could say that but I thought of Shanks and Rayleigh too.

Thank you for that, I will try keep that in mind, you've just given me a nice boost, a bit more motivation, encouragement now, thank you. Theres no victory or satisfaction in giving up.

I will stick around to make sure we can have our talk anyway too, whenever you are ready of course.

My friend had the same problem with his neighbor, he changed his house
I know it's hard, maybe it's better to go to another city
I have seen many evil people in this world
My friend said that he saw an addicted man who burned his child in a fire
We are still better people than these people, we have the right to live
You can bro

Ohhh, thats horrible, ive heard stories similar to that a long time ago, in the news, in documentaries and such, its beyond words, absolutely horrific and demonic. Pure evil as you said. You're completely right man, thank you. I've been trying to convince my family to move to a small town/village, I've visited a few here and people and quality of life there were SO MUCH better, the air, the atmosphere, food,

lifestyle, at least almost everything was a huge improvement compared to these shitty cities. City life is so much miserable, so toxic in many ways, chaotic, crime ridden, aggressive/cut-throat etc. I'm tired of it. I've been desperate to move out of this shitty city for decades now, always hated it here and its only getting worse as our government has it catastrophic levels of incompetence and ruin now too.

I really appreciate what you said thank you, we do need to be reminded of that from time to time, we have the right to live indeed, we can't let ourselves forget that, life is sacred and we shouldn't take ours for granted. I don't want to go out of this world without a fight, my grandma didn't and neither will I. She went out fighting and so will I.

I hope things get better for you and don't lose hope! And may your lousy neighbor piss off.

I wish you all the best in your journey ahead! Hope you can remain in touch with some of us once life gets better in due time! There's a lot of important concepts and themes that I've learned both from you and in this conversation that I will apply in my own life so I thank you for being a great teacher in that regard!

You know, in reference to Dark Souls, there is a game that I've played for about 300 hrs or so:

Known as "Kenshi", a sandbox action rpg similar to DwarfFortress, Mount&Blade, Rimworld. This is a game where you are kicked in the teeth repeatedly until you learn how to survive, willpower incarnate. A pure struggle but once you figure out what to do, the power arc is incredible! So much freedom, so many horrible fates awaiting yourself and your squad, and endless stories to tell. Ties nicely with the convo above.

@Poorsalino Cooker Aye thanks so much man, hes like a cockroach who never seems to relent, im so sick and fed up of him. Im so mad my grandma never got to experience life without dealing with his BS and harassment now and same for my grandfather at this rate too.

@WalnutTax Thank you very much too dude, I will keep in touch one way or another, definitely. Oh really? Damn, I regard you, @CoC: Color of Clowns ,

@SmokedOut as some of the wisest users on here, like in terms of actual life experience wisdom and understanding, sage advice or something. I'm gla dto here that though, I'm honoured now especially haha. You're very welcome, I had no idea I was being such a great teacher but one of my lifelong dreams was to be a teacher to be fair, so thats ironically worked out for me apparently LMAO!

Ah man, I know all of those

games too, I've not playe them but heard plenty a bout most of them, especially Dark Souls but I've hard of the brutality of Kenshin and DwarfFortress in their own ways, especially the truly immense complexity of DF too.

Thats a really interesting point, its the stories of struggle, the underdogs that are far more interesting, relatable and compelling, thats why I love characters like Kidd and Vegeta too,

as seing their Sisyphean struggles to be the best, at the top is extremely relatable naturally.

You've really given me an interesting perspective there thank you. Normally I avoid playing games on higher difficulties, I tend to play "for the story" and characters/atmosphere/music etc a lot, the "experience" but games are games ofc and thus meant to be played, they're meant to challenge us, to make us improve and

improvise, to overcome and "git gud".

I've been trying Borderlands 2 on TVHM (hard mode) for once instead of avoiding it and despite some annoyances, I'm enjoying it, i'm not just going through the motions and feeling OP, i'm being challenged and having to play more carefully and actually care about cover and tactics. It's more "realistic" and thus punishing and thus challenging.

I used to love difficult games,
Kizaruber Eats
Kizaruber Eats
one of my favourite games ever is Dota 2 and I've spent literal several thousands of hours on it, no other game has mentally, emotionally and thus personally challenged me like that, its inironically the "dark souls of mobas", the brutal boot camp of multiplayer games and it will tear you a new one for hundreds of hours at minimum if not longer, but its so rewarding, so compelling, so addicting, so fulfilling when

you start to understand it, to overcome it, to push that boulder up the hill and climb that summit.

The power to overcome is truly a feeling undescribed, it has to be felt, to be experienced. Its life changing.

You've really opened my eyes, thank you. I just bought a desert survival game called Starsand on sale atm, I've had my eyes on it for ages, it looks really good and I can't wait to try it out soon.

The new Prince of Persia game is apparently very challenging like the original games, the 2D ones and definitely not like The Sands of Time trilogy so much or especially the 2008 reboot which was more like "my first prince of persia/prince of persia for kids/POP with cheats enabled" etc. So I'm looking forward to trying that, especially when I ACTUALLY buy my Switch next
