( this is what you wanted to be greeted with when opening the network, right? a woman sat on an unmade bed with her legs crossed ankle over knee, ashtray full on a bedside table, looking about as enthused as a rock as she's so very clearly scrolls through some searches. )

So, video games.

( great opening line. didn't even introduce herself. )

I get what they are from looking it up, but what's the point in some of these? PowerWash Simulator? Farming Simulator 56? American Truck Simulator? You could just go outside and do some of this.

( is she smoking inside her bedroom? also yes. sorry if that gets into the vents, redemption team. )

... I also need suggestions for games. And no, I don't have experience in it which means I don't have enough to make a preference with.

To be fair, does it look like this place will allow anyone to be able to go outside and do any of that stuff like farming or whatever simulator game is offered here so easily?

[What with the rampant threat of kaiju and everything else about where we're at...]

( it's a good point, she supposes. but that circles her back to an earlier thought: )

for fun, though?
i can't say i get how anyone would think so. mostly just moving dirt or... removing dirt, in some of them.

[thundercrashes]

Maybe it's just meant to be a time killer from boredom rather than purely for the sake of fun?

And you wouldn't have to actually get dirty or have a license to use a crane or whatever it is these games use for playing around with dirt...

( well, judging by the whole maid paperwork fiasco, she'd judge that getting licenses for anything here is a nightmare so fair enough. )

we're definitely not short on stuff to do, i'll say that much. and some of them cost a lot more money than i thought they'd be.

though probably not as much as owning your own plot of land to do farm upkeeping things in.

[thundercrashes]

Yeah, exactly. So it's just easier (and less expensive) for those who are simply curious to get a hint of what it's like to do something through playing an easy simulator of it rather than actually doing it for real.
