I didn't choose it. As a graduate working for a "consultancy", I got put into a role I didn't want to do, absolutely hated, and found a niche inside it that I'm very good at.
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

Set blasters to stun!... Wait. I meant set BLASTER to A220 I5 D1.

Like I think most of us played it like 6 years ago or so at PAX and it was "really feels good to drive around! the movement is nice! Love the big monsters that burst through the ground" then the game releases and its 40 entirely broken mechanics bolted onto an unintelligible experience.

I am utterly fascinated by what happened. No release trailer, website wasn't updated (still says Wishlist now in most places). Entire steam page is still the 6 year old video and screenshots. Entire game is 100% broken in almost every way, it's just a very early prototype at best.

Well, I lasted about 10 mins in Dead Static Drive. Of all the things I thought this game was shaping up to be over the years, inexplicably obtuse wasn't one of them. Also, the control scheme, and particularly driving, feels awful. How do you have Drive in your name and do someone like that.

Me: HEY GOOGLE. TELL ME THE WEATHER TOMORROW.

Me: Hey Google. If you don't tell me the weather tomorrow, I'm going to delete you.

Google: The weather tomorrow is... (Relevant weather)

I for one am glad The Hu are not the only Mongolian Metal band. Wrap your ears around UUHAI

I ate the Hungry Jack's Philly cheesesteak burger so you don't have to.

My review:

If you want a Philly cheesesteak, don't get the HJ burger.
If you want a HJ burger, get the Philly cheesesteak one.

I am floored by this game concept, and astounded it hasn't (?) been done to death (haha) already. Looks like a typical crafting/survival vs zombies with some immersive sim features, but then... wait for it...
(I hope this game is good, because I wanna play it)
