We actually ripping on someone here from doing something good?


Why the question mark?



Because it was a question. I guess technically the sentence should have begun with an 'Are', but I wrote it how I would say it.

Sorry vode.

How do you score a job like that? Did you get lucky and just apply at the right time, or have you got connections in the company?

No connections, just alot of experience in game testing, and some GH skillz to back it up apparently.

you have to be able to beat the game on expert on one instrument and on hard for the rest.

Most places dont, most places want people of various skill levels because they would do diff things in the game leading to more crashes.

When testing for GH and similar games, they need to push the hardware as hard as possible, the expert level provides the most strain on the graphics engine.

AND BY THE WAY. I get paid to work with the sisters. They're actually pretty interesting people, they've done some really crazy stuff that I know myself and the majority of people on here would never do. Like live in crazy impoverished slums with extremely diseased people.

My point is, I can learn a lot from them, and find their insights and experiences to be pretty helpful in my personal humble quest to become the greatest person to ever live.


When can I wake up in a puddle of sweat and mystery semen without reading about some young punk who wants to copy Al the great.

I used to do it for free, I was near christ like at that stage in my life then it all went downhill.

They do whenever a new ones comes out!

A tester doesn't play games already released.

We do everything possible to break the game so that the developers can fix it

That job would be boring to most because you have to literally doing everything and I thought keep detailed notes (this true?)

But it sounds like the perfect shit for me cause I'm great at taking notes, breaking video games by doing dumb stuff in it over and over, and sucking leroy's cock.

Shoe in.

I can break games that are already released, you just have to find the patten of error and force it to do something it wasnt ment to do. I do this for fun, I like to glitch lol. get me a job or I'll take yours.

She started to, but I cut her off by saying I was rushed for time. Gotta interview loads of people for a little project I'm putting together, she's only a tiny part of it so I'll be fucked if I sit through some bitch lecture me on why she wears lettuce underwear or whatever the fuck that means.
