    Nah, I'm a carny and we have to move our Stands around the whole country.
    We only have small stands that we can move with a small Bus though .

    But i drive a lot for others and some of them have those crazy big fairground rides on 4 to 5 trailers .
    Sometimes i drive for 12 Hours :|

    I also hate driving, but blasting my favorite music is always nice to balance things out.

    drivings a bit... menial to me. So many of my friends love it, but i only use it to get from A to B, and it just feels more like a chore than anything else...

    though just like any chore, having some good music on makes it a bit more fun happy

    I'd be willing to bet that most people who see driving as a chore, unless it's actually your job, drive automatic cars. I felt the same way until I started driving a standard. I'll never own another automatic transmission vehicle. Standard shifting requires more involvement, and gives you more control, and therefore can be a lot more fun.

    I've just played the first 15ish minutes of Amnesia. It's already pretty unsettling.

    I never drove an Automatic car lol
    Its just Gas and Brake without a coupling (whats the actual term?) yes ?

    Ah Amnesia, the reason i quited watching Lets Plays as it made me realize just how staged those are .

    Best Horror Game in a long time though

    I've driven both an automatic and a standard .... and I've decided that I hate the action of driving. It's cool being able to get myself from one point to another, but I don't like operating motor vehicles.

    Amnesia seems like a very interesting game. I'll probably never put myself through the agony of playing it, though.

    And if you ever going to play it don't spoil yourself with Lets Plays or Gameplay Videos (especially not Glitch Videos) it will ruin the whole Game .

    There's something about the way they set up the atmosphere that just gets in your head right from the start. Kinda like the way Slender does. I haven't even run into an enemy yet, and it's already frightening.

    It's showing 9-15 for both of us for me.

    I'm still doubting that I'll ever play it, but I'll keep that in mind.

    I'm not a big fan of driving. Its a responsibility I don't want and a huge money sink. Most of the time (ie if its within 20 miles and not raining) I'd rather ride my bike, or carpool.

    Exactly this, although cycling home from my friends house after new years to discover there was a quarry nearby and vast amounts of HGV's on the road was not a nice surprise atall xD

    ^ I was really glad they added so many more options for melee range spells from Oblivion to Skyrim because of that. Some of the spells in Oblivion were really hard to hit moving targets with. Especially at range.

    The best thing about Oblivion and that it was SUCH a SHAME when they removed it in Skyrim was the feature you can CREATE YOUR OWN SPELLS. It was so awesome. It's true you could create "farm" spells that lasted 1 sec and with no cost and you could level up fast as hell, but come on! You can do that with illusion in Skyrim, just cast Calm on a guard a zillion times and you level up fast as hell.

    Yeah but Oblivions fun wasnt in the Combat, that was more like a chore to me.
    It was about the exploration of the World and learning about the History through the Books and Dialoge .

    Could you even create worthwhile Spells ?
    Oh and when you hit a Dead Body with an AOE Spell they go flying around and get sruck in Walls etc . Ahh good old silly Havoc silly

    I remember making a few spells that made my horse run faster. It almost always resulted in me and my horse dying horribly.

    I had a lot of fun with stunning spells in Oblivion. They seem a lot less prevalent in Skyim. It's so much fun to run up and behind someone and touch them only to watch them go stiff and topple over. Love that spell.

    I had a lot of fun punching Legion guard's horses in the face too. Nothing quite like being out in the wilds and having a knight ride up on you, looking all tough and official, and punching his horse in the face and then running off into the wilderness. It's stuff like that that makes me excited for Elder Scrolls Online. None of your horses will be safe from my wrath.
