There’s story videos now, dafuq…

Follow him on nebula. It’s a nice platform afaik, and remunerates content creators better.

It’s not even skill, it’s laziness and pride. The game has a quest tracker (limited to 3 concurrent quests) and also tracks quest characters. It’s just sheer utter laziness and refusal to read anything beyond a sentence and the hubris to think that if they are stuck, it’s the game’s problem, the issue is never them, they are never to blame for any shortcoming or inadequacy. That’s why they mentioned Avowed, it’s as deprived of any actual interactivity as it can be. It’s completely a fantasy on rails shooter. It’s basically a mobile game sold on steam for 70€.

Corbyn was an ostensive victim of character assassination because some of his progressive labour protection policies we’re a bit to good, they might make the people actually vote for him. He was removed from the party in one of the dirtiest campaigns I’ve seen to date. Fast forward to today and we see the result, the UK is fast moving to general “right to work” à lá USA, abandoning any pretense of being a civilised country.

That was exactly the reason, it was factual that simplicity played a massive role in this discussion. The game has quest tracking but it’s limited to 3 active quests. It also has an extensive quest log. Rather than calling out their obvious incapability of reading a sentence, I opted to direct them towards games more geared to the effort they are ostensibly willing to put into a game. The fact them and their alt/cronies turned this into a brigade, should inform anyone what is the level of human being we’re dealing with here. Victimhood olympics, the US merican specials. Hasan Minaj put it better than I ever will be able to. Anything for fake sympathy points.

So, reddit…

Headline in a couple of years:

Open AI’s Cop GPT opens fire on an unsuspecting black family visiting texas from Georgia. Sam Altman claims auto pilot disengaged 1ms before the trigger was pressed so it’s the fault of the soldier holding the abort button.

George is a veritable treasure. Highly recommend his videos on Pentiment.

Most people’s behaviours make them indistinguishable from cattle. Not to diminish them, just that, for the most part, you’re bound to think, live and express yourself locally. That makes you extremely easy to manipulate, especially when nowadays there are unthinkable amounts of data being collected on you at every given time. This, in turn, makes psycho history more a concept of the current reality than a fictional scientific discovery. I.e. the role of Cambridge analytica and Steve Bannon during the Brexit campaign. If these idiots can influence a country like the UK, against their best interest, what makes you think that the exact same strategy is not being employed on us at any moment in time, to maximise capital extraction? The proof is in the pudding. The last decade saw the largest transfer of wealth from the general populace to the 1%. We’re basically suffering the consequences of 3 generations of functional regards.

COPD is the fourth leading cause of death worldwide. That’s the entire universe of people in the world.

I guess WHO also downplays mental health because their take is actually quite similar to my take, you know, the only responsible adult in this thread…

I don’t know why I’m even bothering to entertain this conversation. Good day.

Oh ffs, grow up. Nobody is downplaying the effects of mental health, just asking people to be reasonable. That’s, however, anno 2025, too much to ask. Everyone exists in hyperbole and asinine takes.

PTSD is eminently treatable and manageable. It doesn’t naturally degenerate, it sucks but you can live till you’re old. Black lung, COPD are chronic, degenerative diseases that will eventually make you gasp for air till you die while your loved ones look on without being able to do anything.

This is beyond stupid, I don’t know when we, as a civilisation, reached a point where people can’t understand shades of grey anymore and live in absolutes only.

Every single one of the components of my comment are factual, I did not insult anyone, and gave pretty good advice, recommending a good game that a lot of people like. The way they are interpreted is not on me.

Is it though? In a world of limited time refunds, someone complains about something that is the exact ethos of a game, I tell them, probably not for you, play AC shadows, which is undoubtedly a good game for people who want a more accessible open world experience than KCD that is less demanding of your attention and less punishing of your time. Likely, in time for a full refund so they’re not stuck with something they find obnoxious, but I’m the ass for telling someone not to stick to something they clearly don’t like and get something more tailored to their taste. Maybe you should take your own advice, stick with me, ask me what I mean, go past whatever you interpreted my comment meant initially and see if it’s better to have someone frustrated at a game or have them play something they will like better.

Wholeheartedly disagree, these are the same arguments levied against the souls games and yet, it’s that opaqueness and steep learning curve that created such a tight knit and engrossing community. Arguably, some of the best games ever made.

Don’t have to but highly advised to do so. It will contextualise significant parts of the background and character histories. The first one is also a masterpiece, so you should try it out and see if the game type is your cup of tea, with the benefit of a lower upfront investment. If you like it, when you’re done with it, the second one may even be cheaper at the time and you get some more of that warhorse goodness.

When someone asks for QoL to not having to pay attention to dialogue when playing an immersive RPG, clearly, they should be playing a different game, i.e. Assassin’s Creed Shadows, that happens to be really good.

Usually assholes are the ones calling names to random strangers.

That it’s significantly less hazardous than coal mining and comparing it so doesn’t do the discussion the problem needs any favours.

The researcher in question is part of an institution that is negotiating a 5y research tender renovation so they are just going with stupid shit like this.
