    When the first alpha released.
    I was in college vacation, I was literally playing it for 20h straight.
    Recording a lot of things and writing my topics about my impressions on the game.
    And when the game released I was again in vacation from college.
    I don't work, so I'd literally start playing in the morning and go to sleep like almost 24h after starting to play.
    Would sleep for 4 to 5 hours and repeat
    I live alone, my wife divorced me around April and I had nothing else and no company to occupy my mind.
    So yeah I put in a lot more than 40 hours a week.
    I put that with 2 days of gaming.

    Maybe if you didn't play video games so damn much, she wouldn't have left you?

    Not exactly Ghost Style
    Try playing like that on Expert/Elite!!
    The Game has got Boring, Faction Missions repeated, spawning Enemies sometimes in front of you? No real storyline.
    I started another Profile Yesterday for the umpteenth time, Expert/Elite, 1 Gun, 1 Life plus a few settings put on Harder like Stamina etc.
    Makes you more of a Ghost, you have to take care or Start again.
    Of course problems are poorly programmed enemies, and bullet sponge Walker, if you can even get that far.
    After doing everything numerous times, the game gets dry.
    As for Behemoth, loads of ways to Destroy them, but why? Except for a Couple you have to, the Rest are Guarding Blueprints, Skill Points, in which most can be Got without alerting the Behemoth, or Emp Grenade Mk 3 maybe a Couple of Them. I managed to sneak in, in most cases.
    The Game has so much Potential, but has the lack of poor programming, has made it boring.

    That is what I call immersion into the game. I hope you enjoyed your time playing, even if it has become boring for you by now.

    We were already living in different cities and not having much time to talk to each other.
    She stayed in the town we used to live before and I traveled 3000 km because I got a scholarship to med school.
    Whenever we used to talk through WhatsApp I would answer her, because you know, video games have a pause button.
    Whenever she came visiting me or Iwent visiting her, I would rather have sex than playing video games.
    Video game is my coping mechanism into being in a town with no friends, no soccer and no sex.
    So what will be your next excuse to being an *** without knowing the whole situation?

    Yeah, in the beginning was nice because I had the delusion that the devs would fix stuff in my reports.
    Because they did fix a couple of things I mentioned right in the alfa.

    Well, for the record, I didn't originally intend to insult, your original post just kind of implied a connection between the two. I'm sure most of us here have had relationships end with varying degrees of pain, I know I have. It sucks and I feel for you. But as Thomas Wayne said, "Why do we fall? So we can get back up again." So don't give up and get back up again.
