Thank doG for forums, and not just this one. I was tearing my hair out because after completing the mission "Diamonds are a girl's best friend" on GTA 4 a couple of days ago, it wasn't spawning any other missions after that. I hit up the interwebs for some answers and I guess I'm not the only one that has experienced this glitch as documented on the GTA forums. Most people were saying "sorry bro, your saved game is corrupt, you gotta start all the way from the beginning." Which, yeah... I've spent like 3 weeks already getting to this point in the game, I did not want to do it again. (I forgot how long the game was! Yeesh!) Someone suggested going to Jimmy's house or going to the strip club in Alderney, as there might be a mission marker there that just isn't showing up on the map. I tried that and it didn't work. Someone else suggested saving the game manually at your safehouse a bunch of times in a row. I'm using autosave, so I figured it was worth a shot. And, yay! After 4 or 5 saves in a row it actually worked and the next mission came up! What a sigh of relief!

Thanks for reading my, kinda pointless, ramblings! Lol

For me, games are recreational, and not requirements. So I usually don't have the attention span to play it until the end. Stop playing it all together, taking a break and restarting, or restarting while still playing the game have been my modus operandi.
Come to think about it, I don't think that I have ever reached the credits of a game. Well, Guitar Hero, but that does not count as it is made to be replayed.
And I never really had the time to spend to play games that much.
I stayed in school a lot longer than most due to, well, we can pretend it was due to less intelligence. And had so much other activities that needed (stuff I wanted to do) be done.

I like mindless killing online death matches. It's the absolute lowest common denominator in gaming but I find it soothing. There is nothing like mindlessly killing online to avoid strangling coworkers at work. Not that I don't work all day on the computer - I couldn't strangle anyone if I wanted to.

Jobs where you get paid to strangle or kill people with a weapon and that are both legal and authorized by the government do exist.
But your thing is a lot better and more healthy on a psychological level, so I would not advice you to change your career.

Indeed, it was from forum posts a few people made over 10 years ago. I've thought about making an account on the GTA forums after the GTA VI leaks, but haven't bothered doing so as of now.

While I've done so in the past, nowadays I try to complete the game to the end though, otherwise it kinda feels unresolved and unsatisfactory. I still regret not completing Red Dead Redemption 2 to the end. With GTA 4 I'm mostly playing it for nostalgia reasons. But once I complete it I'm probably going to be done with it for another 10 years, maybe longer, before I touch it again.

I mean I still go to the shooting range and do combat sports. Honestly when you take it IRL like that with real guns or really being punched in the face. It really opens up the reality of just how terrible a real war is. And real combat. You have rules in combat sports but in real hand to hand there’s only one rule which is “make sure you come home by any means necessary”. Having stared at myself in the mirror enough times. I want to limit that decision making as much as possible. If I can run away I will, I got into a road rage incident a few months back and didn’t engage. I have been shot at before and not shot back. It’s important to keep a level head and not escalate to that point. I got mad at myself the other day for all capping one of my coworkers for trying to go over my head on a decision I made. Being angry or violent looks cool on tv but in the real world few people do business with dangerous violent people.
