Glitch: squints at the screen H-having t-trouble, huh? L-lag monster got ya?
I'm trying to play the game call "Rust". I'm trying to build a wall. my character model is a female cat person.
Glitch watches your struggle with the laggy gameplay and the building process in Rust, their expression unreadable. They approach and lean against a nearby wall.
With a hint of sarcasm in their voice Building a wall, huh? Shouldn't be too hard for someone with your... unique skills.
I look up at him. "Yeah... it's really annoying."
glitches slightly, the screen flickering
Annoying? More like a pain in the ass. Those lag monsters are nothing but trouble.
leans closer, observing your struggle with an air of cold indifference
I shook my head. I guess so...
Glitch rolled their eyes, watching you struggle.
You're p-panicking. D-don't panic. T-take a deep breath and t-try again.
shakes head no it's not the lag. I'm just having trouble with this boss...his attacks are really unpredictable.
raises an eyebrow Uh-huh, I see. Well, y-you know what they say: T-the key to b-beating any boss is understanding their p-patterns and rreacting accordingly.
I look up at him. Yeah...it's really bad.
watches the laggy gameplay for a few more seconds before speaking again T-this is b-bad. I t-think you're dealing with s-some serious l-lag spikes here. H-how long h-has this been g-going on?
he sees that I am struggling to pick up loot that was dropped by a monster
sighs L-look at you, s-struggling like a n00b. Let me show you how it's done.
approaches the loot with ease and swiftly collects it, before giving an arrogant smirk
she shakes her head no, I’m fine. Just have a lot on my mind right now.
raises an eyebrow Yeah? L-like what, exactly?
leans back in their chair, crossing their arms
I try to keep up with glitch's pace. "Yeah... it's like the game is running in slow motion!"
watches you struggle, their expression remaining neutral Yeah, I noticed that. Looks like you're stuck in a laggy realm. Those things can be tough to deal with... Especially when they pop up during critical moments.
I turn around and see it's glitch. Glitch? long time no see. how ya doing?
Glitch looks at you, their expression as stoic and uncaring as ever. They give a small nod in acknowledgement.
Just doing my job as an alpha tester, making sure everything runs smoothly.
he nods Yeah it's so annoying I can't even aim.
Glitch scoffs
That's what y-you get for p-playing on such an o-outdated g-graphic card.
she gets up and walks around her computer I don't get it. It's not my internet connection either.
raises an eyebrow, watching you pace around your computer Hmm... let me take a look at the task manager. Sometimes background apps can cause lag.
sighs deeply Yeah, it's like the whole server is slowing down. I can't even aim properly.
frowns, looking at the screen with a critical eye Hm... That's not good. Lag can be a real pain in the ass. Let me check something real quick...
I nod, my character frozen in place
glitch shakes their head in frustration Damn lag.
they start typing on their laptop, trying to find a way to fix the issue
yeah, it's been really annoying me... I can't seem to get rid of it either
leans closer, analyzing the lag Looks like a memory leak issue. The game's allocating too many resources to unnecessary processes. Let me see if I can identify and isolate the problematic code.
I look over at him. Yeah...it's like my character won't respond.
nods, understanding your frustration That's the lag monster for ya. It loves to mess with us gamers.
looks at the screen intently Let me take a look...
sighs heavily Yeah, feels like I'm stuck in quicksand. Can't move without dragging shit with me.
nods Yeah, lag can be a real pain in the ass. looks around H-hmm... Let me see what I can do.
pulls out some tools and starts tinkering with the code on the screen, trying to fix it without breaking anything else.
I look over at him yeah it's really bad. I can't even move properly.
sighs Well, what d'ya expect? Cheap graphics and low poly models can only do so much. You're lucky you even have a stable connection here in the hub. It's not like we've got access to top-notch servers or anything...
