I play RPGs, and I work in construction, which I've found is pretty weird.
How do I know, well whenever I tell a co-worker my hobby they ask "what's an RPG? Rocket propelled grenade? How do you play with one of those?" "From a safe distance".
Needless to say, they were all super excited for Free RPG Day, until I told what RPG stood for.

Life has been interfering with it for a while, but I was an active officer in a local foam weapon fantasy LARP for some time.
Converting nonRPG settings to use with game systems that have built in settings totally different in flavor. (Using the Stormbringer system for David Eddings' Belgariad world was my top one.)

They're a diverse group of weird prehistoric elephant cousins, often with very unusual tusks.

Apologies to both of you. And everyone in this thread. And just... everyone.

This like the scene in John Carpenter's The Thing where everyone secretly expects the blood test to reveal Andostre is the infiltrating Canadian, except surprise! -- its actually Freehold, who turns out to be Ryan Reynolds all along.

I was playing through FireRed again, just a few weeks ago, partly for nostalgia’s sake and partly because back in elementary school when Gameboys were cutting-edge, neither me nor my brother could find the path through Victory Road, and instead had to have a friend deposit us in front of the Indigo Plateau; and I kind of wanted to take a crack at the puzzle as a not-toddler. And wow they just don’t make Pokémon games like they used to.

My son, who is 25, bought the new "Pikachu, Let's Go!" game for his Nintendo Switch a couple of weeks ago. I am NOT a video or computer gamer. The controls confused me A LOT. But he bought the version with the Pokeball controller and now I'm playing it as well... lol. I'm currently trapped in Diglett's cave with no idea how to get out. But I've actually enjoyed playing it. He acts like he's 5 again instead of 25 over this game.. lol

D:
They added fookin’ zubat to diglett’s cave? WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS THING?
Do you have a rattata? Some of them have a special ability lets them escape fights with zubats automatically, called (creatively) Run Away; playing through FireRed this time through I kept one at the front of my party whenever I went underground. MVP, most definitely.
They’re pretty strong at your level too; with a high speed and Hyper Fang it’s not hard to outspeed and one-shot. They fall off later, but that’s just how the game’s designed, different Pokémon are good at different levels.

I'm afraid you're too late. I've already forgotten most of the things I learned in college.
