Broooo Crimson Desert is HUGE 😭
Nowadays I am playing crimson desert and the more I am exploring the more my eyes are getting amazed 😭 this game is soo huge and loaded with side content you can't even think! Game is DEFINITELY lengthy but at the same time it's not boring me actually!
EASILY NOMINATE THIS FOR GOTY 🫡
What a fucking game 😭
I just finished 007 First Light and holy shit… what a ride.
I genuinely didn’t expect to get this attached to the story and especially to Bond himself. Watching him go from this young, reckless, inexperienced guy into the person he eventually becomes was easily my favourite part of the entire game. The character development was SO satisfying. And the characters… 009, Murtò, Damien, Nicholas, Isola — I was constantly invested in what was going on. By the end I was sitting there thinking, “Okay, I NEED to know what happens next.” 😭
The game also just feels like Bond. The locations, gadgets, stealth, action sequences, dialogue, cinematography… it genuinely felt like I was playing through a Bond movie instead of just playing another licensed game.
And THE END CREDITS???
BRO. 😭😭😭
That ending is an absolutely criminal cliffhanger 💀
I honestly went into this expecting a good 007 game and somehow came out of it with a new favourite game.
10/10 experience for me.
IO Interactive, whenever the sequel comes!!! take my fucking money. Day one. 🫡
OP is 22yo now 🙋🏻
​
Today is my 22nd birthday, and I don't really know how I'm supposed to feel about it.
When I was a kid, birthdays were just another day. I didn't have a group of friends waiting to surprise me. Nobody was planning anything. I remember seeing other kids at school talking about their birthday parties and who they were inviting, and I always felt like I was watching something that wasn't meant for me. I wasn't bullied every day or anything like that. It's actually harder to explain. I was just… never really anyone's person.
I didn't have a best friend. I didn't have a group. I was never the first person someone called when they wanted to go somewhere.
And at home, things weren't much better. I grew up feeling like I was constantly doing something wrong. Even when I was trying my best, it never seemed to be enough. I learned pretty early that asking for attention or affection usually meant being disappointed, so eventually I stopped asking.
I think that's probably where I learned to be alone.
The weird part is that I'm 22 now, and technically, I'm doing okay.
I live separately from my parents. I have a job. I pay my own bills. I buy my own groceries. I come home to my own apartment, cook for myself, clean up after myself and go to sleep. I'm slowly trying to build a life, nobody is forcing me out of bed anymore, Nobody is telling me what I'm doing wrong... And somehow, that last part still hurts.
Because living alone is peaceful when you choose it.
When you've spent most of your life feeling alone, sometimes peace and loneliness start looking exactly the same.
I just think everyone should have a birthday cake at least once where they don't have to wonder whether they deserve it.
Honestly, I don't even know why I'm writing this, I guess I just wanted to say it somewhere.. Maybe next year will feel different....
I finished playing Mafia Definitive Edition today, and here's my opinion
​
Recently I played Mafia(definitive edition) and just finished it and I have to tell you that the thing I liked it about this game was not the story but the way it narrates and damnnn IT FELT LIKE A MOVIE!! Even the Lost Heaven feels like a character itself. The characters, the relationship between them feels grounded, the story was GOATED! The graphics were Cool I truly loved it man, 100% recommended ❤️

Had sex for the first time with my girlfriend she was scared, I was nervous, and now I'm overthinking everything.
My girlfriend (20F) and I (21M) have been together for a little over a year. We both decided we wanted our first time to be with each other, so there wasn't any pressure from anyone else. We talked about it beforehand, bought protection, and made sure we'd have the apartment to ourselves.
The thing is... when the moment actually came, it felt completely different from what either of us expected.
She got really quiet and admitted she was scared. Not because she didn't want to, but because it was her first time and she was worried it would hurt or that something would go wrong. Seeing her anxious made me anxious too. I started second-guessing everything because the last thing I wanted was for her to feel pressured.
We ended up stopping for a while, just talking and cuddling. She kept asking if I'd be disappointed if we didn't go through with it, and honestly I wasn't. I just wanted her to feel comfortable. After about half an hour she said she wanted to try, but only if we took it really slowly.
Without getting into details, it wasn't some magical movie moment. We were both awkward, nervous, laughed at ourselves a couple of times, and had to pause more than once because she was still tense. Eventually we stopped for the night because she said she'd had enough and just wanted to watch a movie instead.
The next day she texted me saying she was happy we didn't rush anything and that she felt safe with me. That honestly meant more to me than anything else.
Now here's why I'm posting.
Part of me keeps wondering if I handled it correctly. Should I have stopped earlier? Should I have encouraged her more, or less? I don't have anyone I can ask about this in real life without it becoming locker-room gossip.
For people who remember their first time, especially couples where one or both of you were really nervous—was it this awkward? Did it get easier once you were both more comfortable? Any advice on making sure she feels as relaxed and reassured as possible if we decide to try again?
