Don’t forget Ennio Morricone and his musical genius. Many of the most iconic scores in Western films are his compositions.

Prepare to get hundreds of multiple-paragraph replies. If there’s one thing Germans love, then it’s telling non-Germans about Germany.

- Comment on Octopath Traveler 0 – Announcement Trailer 2 weeks ago:
I have not played 2 yet but plan to when I can catch a decent sale. From what I read, the writing is better and there also seem to be some QoL features might help with the pacing of the dialogue and cutscenes.
- Comment on Octopath Traveler 0 – Announcement Trailer 2 weeks ago:
No, I feel you. I did finish the game and enjoyed it overall, but the dialogue and writing was jarring. I’m not sure what exactly it was, but I was particularly annoyed by the writing being cliché lots of times and the dialogue in the cutscenes being soooo slow (overused animations, dramatic pauses in every sentence, …).
- Comment on Day 376 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, the vibe is different, but both are excellent in their own way. Part 2 is a more complex piece of story telling , and it does some things I had not expected from a game and that make it more (emotionally) challenging but also unique in terms of the experience. I personally found it really impressive.

Your journey through Part 1 was really fun to read along. Do you plan on playing Part 2?

Fun fact: For a group of 13 skeletons attacking the same target, the probability that at least one of them crits is about 49%.
- Comment on YSK that apart from not having a car, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat 5 weeks ago:
Just seems ridiculous that the message is “everyone should give up their creature comforts and live as simply and tediously as possible so that billionaires don’t have to change”.
I never said that. On the contrary: All of it will have to change if life on this planet is supposed to remain livable, and it’s gonna involve quite a bit more than giving up red meat. I also think that having broad public support for that change, built on many individuals who choose to implement it, will make it easier to impose the same demands (e.g., through policy) on corporations and the wealthy. Given that billionaires are not exactly known for being selfless, waiting for them to do the right thing seems like a losing strategy to me.

I used “systemic” with regards to policy. I don’t think corporations change much by themselves without a strong monetary incentive (e.g., shifts in customer preferences) or external pressure (e.g., policy). Changes in individuals are helpful for both of these.
- Comment on YSK that apart from not having a car, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat 1 month ago:
I agree that systemic change is important, too, but 6% of global emissions attributable to a single factor is HUGE. Plus, it’s not one or the other. Changes by individuals supports change at a systemic level.

Dude, for real. Half of what people call “efficiency” is just routine and winging stuff you know you don’t really need to prepare.

I get that, but the parody essentially just replicates the original humor in my opinion.

Fine line between mirroring and holding up the mirror. This feels more like the former.
