Off-Topic / Re: Dumb things that annoy you

Looks like it's time for me to step in.

Just remind ya'll not to get too heated over this No Man's Sky thing.

Since I only get £70 a month to spend I ain't getting it anytime soon.

That being said here's my view:
This will either go two main ways

1: they lied. Oh no, so sad. Learn not to pre order something you truly know nothing about
Or don't and leave this page to pre order the next COD for £50,000 :P

2: they didn't lie. They couldn't get everything done by release. Simple wait a bit longer and it'll be patched in.

Which one is true will be apparent with time.

Either way. Don't pre order on a whim children, like with any investment, do your research first ;) It's still gonna be buyable after it's release Unless it's Nintendo

"Whoa there wolfy!" Blueberry wobbled on his hind legs, bowl in hooves doing all he can not to accidentally tread on the blue wolf trying to nick any fallen ingredients.

Waddling his way to a counter top the stallion placed the bowl down and started gathering his ingredients. Rustling through the fridge for milk, cream and eggs he glanced out at the wolf staring up from the floor.
"Haven't you eaten yet?" Blueberry questioned. "Let's see what we can find here, what is with this fridge? It's like every time I open it, it's been refilled. Ah this looks like wolf food"

Blueberry's head slowly came out of the fridge with a very cartoon looking piece of ham holding it up by the bone with his mouth. "Ish ish uaht oo ant?"

It's been a long time since I played MMOs.

Back in the day I played a little bit of Guild Wars, Flyff, Mabinogi, Eden Eternal and Megaten Online.

"Vanilla should be pretty easy. I just hope there are some pods lying around, those things can get a bit pricey sometimes"

Blueberry started shuffling round the kitchen, rummaging through cupboards and grabbing some milk and cream from the refrigerator. "Getting all this stuff together shouldn't take too long so I can help out with something else if you need me. The ice cream will take a few hours until anypony can eat it though"
5
"I had a feeling the subject of ice cream would crop up" Blueberry laughed. If anything the mare certainly lived up to the smile part of her name, she appeared to have a different kind for any occasion. Now here she was giggling like a school filly.

"I'd better get to work then, I'll leave party preparations to you, Smile. You look like you know what needs to happen.
The stallion made his way over to the fridge to check out the ingredient situation. "I don't suppose anyone has any particular flavors in mind do ya?"
6
Blueberry pondered as FakeSmile explained to their newly met pony their party plans.
"I'm not that good at cooking either. A little thing here and there but nothing a party would need"

He greeted the new ponies as they entered the kitchen. Quite the crowd was starting to gather. "looks like we're getting a gathering already"
7
As Blueberry asked his question to, FakeSmile a sign from the sun itself beamed upon them, in the form of an unknown pony screaming down the nearby hall.

"I guess there is somepony here with that talent after all" he said mischievously "Better go say hello" peering around the kitchen door, Blueberry called out "Hey, we're in the kitchen"
8
"I fink thash a greah idea" Blueberry replied with a mouth full of plate as he carried it over to the sink. Placeing the plate down he turned back to FakeSmile.
"The only other ponies I've met so far are Joystick and that blue wolf."

"Hmm..." He started to ponder what would be involved in making the party. Blueberry was never really a party pony, so most of the preparations and planning was way out of his league. Luckily though the other pony seemed to have an idea of what to do.
"I guess we'll need to find a way of letting everyone know. I don't suppose any of the ponies you've met can make posters or have a talent screaming down hallways do they?
9
The two ponies' hooves met and it seemed that some life began to creep into the mare but Blueberry couldn't be too sure.

"Thank you" He replied with a smile. The stallion noticed the mare giggling to herself but had no idea what to make of it "Actually I don't know anyone here yet either, I've only properly met one other pony here so far.
Sadly or maybe fortunately, Blueberry's mind was not fast enough to grasp the punage of the mare and they flew straight over his head. "Yeah, I make my own ice cream for the stall, I actually made my first by accident back in school..." Blueberry stopped himself once he realised that he might have started waffling on "Though I guess my Cutie Mark story is one for another time."

Blueberry finished off his breakfast and coffee, unaware of the other pony listening in on their conversation.
10
"Oh, right. Sorry to hear that. Well, saves me a trip back up doesn't it?" Blueberry said with a smile after the mare he was speaking to slid his coffee back to him. The stallion slurped at his beverage and almost choked when asked for his name.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I completely forgot. The name's Blueberry Gelato. I own an ice cream stall at one of the Manehattan marketplaces. Pleased to meetcha FakeSmile."
He stretched out a hoof, though after doing so wondered to himself if shaking hooves was really the best thing to be asking of a semi conscious mare.
11
Blueberry slid his coffee cup over to FakeSmile
"Well then, looks like you need this more then me." he said with a brief smile.

Blueberry dug into his breakfast "So, are you from around here then? I'm here on holiday so I don't have any work planned. Don't know how much relaxing I'll get done given what little I've seen of the company though" the stallion laughed.
12
(OOC: Thank you, FakeSmile. Better burn it into your mind, I can only break the no IRL pictures rule for today :P )

Blueberry had managed to serve himself up some pancakes and a cup of coffee. He bit into the tray that held today's breakfast and made his way to the table. The mare that had greeted him had already finished up and made their own way out towards the garden, the other one seemed to have passed out.

"Rough night, huh?" The stallion muttered softly and began with his breakfast.
13
Blueberry finally awoke from his slumber. With a yawn he opened his eyes and was instantly blinded by rays of sunshine creeping through the blinds. Twisting his head away from the window his eyes fell upon his bags, laying dejected in a corner of the room.
"Uh, I have to sort out those today."
With a sigh Blueberry got himself up and made his way out of his room.
"I'll sort them out later"

After completing his morning pony tasks in one of the bathrooms, Blueberry made his way down into the kitchen intending to make himself some breakfast and possibly investigate the dairy situation.
Fortunately, even though the stallion arrived late to breakfast it appeared some pony had made some pancakes in advance.
"Oh, well this is a nice surprise, morning ponies"
Blueberry glanced around at the ponies who were still in the kitchen and made his way to serve himself some food and caffeine.

My brother had an old 300GB hard drive lying around in an old laptop he wasn't using.

I managed to procure it the other day and sort it out with Windows 7 so basically my laptop is much better than it used to be :3

Blueberry exited from the bathroom of the fourth floor. Having washed up he prepared to make his way to his new room. It had taken him a while earlier but he'd managed to eventually find out which room he was staying in and had taken up all his bags, albeit left them still full in the corner of his room.

Walking across the hallway to his room, Blueberry noticed the white body of Joystick and the fluffy waddle of Gamepaw going into room four, just opposite his own room of three.

"Poor, Joy." Blueberry had, had a run in with the wolf earlier and experienced first hand the difficulties of moving the canine from place to place. He was surprised that the wolf didn't have an area of his own to go to, it seemed likely that "Gamepaw duty" may be something that would have to be thought on.

Making his way to his own room, Blueberry thought to himself about the coming day, it would be his first actual day at this house and if what had happened so far was anything to go by, he'd better be prepared.
16
"I guess you haven't had anything yet then" Blueberry said to the wolf who had started wagging his tail at the sound of food.
"I'll go and see what I can find"

As he turned to make his way out of the living area, Blueberry noticed a sticky note stuck onto a slightly out of place chest sitting in the corner of the room. He read the note but decided to leave the chest alone for now, he wasn't planning on staying in this room anyway. Though he may have overlooked one in the kitchen, which just so happened to be his new destination.

Walking through the hallway, Blueberry couldn't help but wonder who had written the notes that appear to litter this place. It was most likely the landlord, maybe even the owner of the wolf of whom he felt he was somehow slowly becoming the new caretaker for. What did the wolf even eat anyway?

Lost in his current thoughts, Blueberry walked into the kitchen.
17
After enough pushing and shoving for a full workout, Blueberry finally managed to slide the chubby wolf onto the sofa. The not so little fella' was heavier than he looked.

"Phew, well, Game we got there in the end"
As the cat jumped up onto the sofa to join the wolf, Blueberry started to wonder who owned these animals or even the building itself, it wasn't something he'd questioned before traveling up to town.

Snapping out of his thoughts he saw the wolf staring longinly at him. Blueberry tilted his head questioningly
"What is it? Haven't you eaten yet?"
18
"I was worried about that" The blue stallion mumbled to himself. there was no way of getting around what had to be done. Blueberry got up, preparing himself for the task at hand "Alright, let's see how we go"

The stallion made his way around the wolf. Carefully assessing the situation. This should be easier than his last plan to carry the wolf down the stairs.

After internally deliberating and sussing out every possible angle he could find, Blueberry came out with precisely nothing. However any way is better than nothing.
The stallion moved up to, Gamepaw and eventually managed to slide one hoof under the wolf's blubbery body. The other front hoof up against the canine's back leg. With some effort, the plan was to lift with one hoof and push with the other.

"Well, Wolfy. Here goes nothing!"
19
Blueberry gazed at the wolf staring back at him for a moment. The animal appeared to want something, but what?

He looked at the sofa and the incident of the stairs flashed into the pony's mind. If the wolf had problems getting up and down stairs, it only made sense that he couldn't get onto furniture either. Especially since sofas were obviously taller than a single staircase step.

Looking back at the somehow purring fluff monster, Blueberry said in a mildy dejected sigh "You want to get on the sofa don't you?"
20
Blueberry tilted his head as the wolf whined and begun to realise there was a small hitch in his plan to check on him.

He knew absolutely nothing about animals.

"Well you don't seem to be too bad." The stallion raised a hoof and began to brush about the fur on Gamepaw's neck, avoiding the collar as best he good with all the dexterity a hoof provides.
"Looks like everything's alright."
Blueberry turned his head towards the cat who had also been sitting on the sofa.
"Oh, I remember you now. You ran off with this collar earlier into the garden"
