Man, selling off disused RAM sticks as a promotional event… These companies are really poor, excluding their large CEO salaries.

Cozy games stress me out and give me anxiety.

- Comment on Skyblivion fan project lead reacts to Oblivion remake news with "all love and no hate" 6 days ago:
It’s not about IP rights, but about contractual obligations. If the mod affects those in some way, the company might ask Bethesda to make it go away.

Maybe they aren’t, but what about the company that is doing the remake? They might argue it will hamper their ability to meet estimated sales and overall profit.

Just a prank, bro! Unless you howl at the moon and piss on nearest landmark to assert dominance. Then it’s so on!

- Comment on Path of Exile 2's disastrous new update reveals the core tension at the heart of its design: How do you make a game with meaningful combat when everyone just wants to blast monsters? 2 weeks ago:
I think that “slow” doesn’t work for a live service game simply because it’s a live service game.

Land is very valuable. If you think you can’t make use of that value, then selling it to someone who can is an option. Just don’t regret it after if they increase that value beyond your own means.

Old enough to see a flick where someone smoked with their ass.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 3 weeks ago:
Haven’t been playing much this week yet. I guess Airborne Kingdom relaxed me too much and I felt the need to mellow down for a while longer.
Someone shared Grounded with me to try it out, but I haven’t felt the mood to give it a go for now. Maybe by weekend time I’ll be in the mood to feel tiny and fight giant, scary bugs/spiders.

Fair point. It might be an emergency PR fail, but it does feel quite embarrassing to close the topic blaming the users.
- Comment on Not just crumbs in the CPU socket: Over 100 AMD 9800X3D chips are now reported to have gone pop and the most by far have died in ASRock motherboards 3 weeks ago:
It might still be. The article does mention that the numbers might be caused by its popularity and that the issue isn’t exclusive to it.
- Comment on With the current state of the news, April's fools aren't fun anymore because they can't be distinguished as easily as before 3 weeks ago:
April’s fools is a line break. It reminds people that things don’t have to be as they are, that they’re not on an inescapable path and they can choose to be different.
For one day a year you are made to look for deviations so you know that you can deviate if you want to. You have that option in spite of however many shackles may keep you bound to your route.
It’s not a holiday for the mean to be meaner, it’s a liberation day for the mind.

People, as individuals or groups, are complicated. And annoying. This is such a pain to deal with… Don’t wanna. Bleh.

You know, the loudest homophobes are often revealed as closeted homosexuals.
You are also very loud in your opinion. You should probably reexamine yourself.
- Comment on Warner Bros. Cancels Planned ‘Hogwarts Legacy’ Game Expansion 3 weeks ago:
I’m advocating that you stop making excuses for yourself.
- Comment on Warner Bros. Cancels Planned ‘Hogwarts Legacy’ Game Expansion 3 weeks ago:
You’re right, both sides aren’t the same. One side has devolved into foregoing what we like to think of as humanity because they have a boner for hate and the other makes excuses on why degrading themselves to the same level isn’t the same.
It’s a play on words. I’ll skip the nuances and get right down to the core, “they started murdering people, so I’m murdering them back”. But here’s the thing, killing is still killing, even in self-defense. No matter how many justifications, running away from this concept only serves to bring you ever closer to the mentality of the other side.
The very simplified “both sides” is alluding to the idea that both are very much willing to give up empathy, ethics and law if it means getting rid of the opposite side. The selective application of these three concepts is what bridges you together in a way that makes an outside observer say “so similar, they might as well be the same” a.k.a. “both sides”.
No exception to empathy, no exception to ethics, no exception to law, no matter how saintly and no matter how evil.
- Comment on Trump says US will 'go as far as we have to' to get control of Greenland 3 weeks ago:
Someone else commented that the melting ice up north and oceanic currents changing means the way by Greenland will likely become the major trading route for whatever the fuck is left of human civilization in the near future.
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 3 weeks ago:
Played Sniper Elite V2. At first i thought it was the first Sniper Elite remade, but it’s actually about the V2 missile program. Weird, I know. My best achievement in the game that for some silly reason isn’t an achievement has to be randomly hitting an NPC in both testicles. Beats 3 heads in a row by a longshot.
Wonder if one can hit 6 nuts in a row or might it be too much to ask for? …
Anyway, in Old World, Assyria declared war on me because I was weak and then spent dozens of years doing nothing, which allowed me to build up an army. They had slingers and warriors, I had spearmen. Turns out when your units pierce into the second row, spit roasting your enemies can be an effective strategy, if you manage to position them properly. First time conquering an enemy in this game.
But I’ll probably quit soon because just as in the Civilization games, I fail at being the conquering type. Sorry Assyria, the game made me do it.
Looking to go through my library, my next try will probably be Airborne Kingdom. While I lack the imaginative creativity I’ve seen others achieve, i believe my floating bucket of bolts will nonetheless stick to the skies as i peacefully wander about that weird little world.
- Comment on Devs of Monster Crown: Sin Eater a 2D monster taming RPG want to 'take that concept to its absolute limits' 4 weeks ago:
“its absolute limits”
So how many sexual kinks are we talking here? If there’s none, then the game is nowhere near the genre’s current absolute limits.

Doesn’t matter if the female is deaf. She still calls for mating and the males will hear her.
