Hope, why would you do that? Why? Just why?

*sets house on fire*

I believe I picked the absolute wrong Final Fantasy game to try that’s outside the tactic games or VII.

This open world is mildly disappointing. I almost wish I were back to doing the grind. I repeat almost. There isn’t much to do aside from helping Cie’th Stones complete their focuses and getting stomped on by dinosaur things I thought were my friends. I’m a serious completionist, but now, I just want to get this game done. If a Cie’th Stone happens to be in my vicinity, I’ll take the mission. If not, oh well. A friend told me in order to get the Paragon achievement (or something) on this game I would have to do some of the Cie’th Stones quests more than once. The hell if I am and to hell with that. I’m not here for this drama.

Still under the impression that video games are strictly for kids? Hilda Knott would like to have a word with you. And perhaps a game.
The 85-year-old British gamer has been mashing buttons for 40 years — roughly the life of the video game industry – and is showing no signs of slowing down.
We’re not talking about just a bunch of boring PC card games, either. In a video interview with the BBC, Knott, who turns 86 next month, shows off her formidable gaming setup, including a sweet 65-inch HDTV and a brand new Playstation 3 Superslim. She discusses her love of Grand Theft Auto IV, which she had a “hilarious” time playing with her 94-year-old-aunt.
Knott acknowledges that her deep love of gaming has helped her stay mentally fit, because “a lot of them have puzzles, working out how to do something.”
She isn’t joking, either, as the video shows her playing the niche tactical role-playing game, Disgaea 4. That’s hardcore. This lady is a gamer, through and through.
And while many of her fellow octogenarians credit games like Wii Sports for keeping them physically active, Knott’s favorite part about playing video games will sound more familiar to the Halo crowd.
“Finding something new in the game,” she says. “Getting on to the next stage, or the next event. And the achievement of finishing it.”
With 40 years of gaming under her belt, we imagine she’s finished quite a few. Hats off to you, Hilda!

I salute you.

Hilda Knott is now the Mother of Gaming

I know women like this. I plan to be one of these women. Screaming at kids about how it used to be when I’m 90 years old.

«a good leader is someone who values the life of his men over the success of the mission but understands that sometimes, the cost of failing a mission is higher than the cost of losing those men.»
«that’s a terrible line to have to walk.»
«yes, it is.»
