I feel your pain, and your post speaks to me almost as if I wrote it. To make it even worse, however, is that I’m now in management for the last two years, and have to put on an even more false front when all I want to do is work. One thing I have gotten better at, is being straightforward. Instead of just dodging around it and trying to let them down easy, just saying “I really need to finish this assignment I’m working on, can we talk about this another time?” Or “hey I appreciate you wanting to tell me about your entire weekend, hour by hour, but I have several things I need to get to working on, we’ll have to chat later” and then just stare at them until they leave. It was uncomfortable at first, but I’ve gotten pretty good at it lately, maybe give it a try?
Interesting, thanks for explaining!
My question is of mathematics, not popularity. Sorry I wasn’t more clear, I am excited for the game too!
I get that. I’m excited for it too. My point is 80k views but 2.1 m likes. How could 2.1 m people like it when it hasn’t even been viewed 100k times yet? As soon as you load the page it’s a view, so at least 2.1m people would have had to open the video to like it.
Exactly, thank you. I get what the massive appeal to the game is. I’ve played all the GTAs (yes I’m old), but something is fucky if it has that many updoots and not even 100k views (at the time).
How does the video have 86,000 views and 2.1m likes? What am I missing?
I’m reading the 3rd book of the Silo series, Dust. I’ve enjoyed the first two and just cracked this one open and am excited to dig in (pun intended?)
Just watched some trailers based on this post, and wow does this look like an involved game. So many moving parts, things to do and types of gameplay. Not sure if I’d enjoy it or be stressed the whole time, but hadn’t heard of it until now, so I appreciate the post.
Ditto. I was really into the game for a while, enjoyed playing it with my oldest kid when it first came out. Spent a lot of hours in it, and it started to become so toxic I, too, rage uninstalled and haven’t looked back. Sad.
Seriously thanks for the information here. The picture alone is fascinating, and the background info about the scene is very intriguing… but the additional history lesson is much appreciated to put the whole thing in context. Very cool, thank you.
