- Comment on Do you think a story that mixes magic with super advanced technology can work? 2 days ago:
Tad Williams did a decent job in “War of the flowers” There was tech comparable to early 2000’s (smartphones, electricity, cars, etc) but was powered by magic, and magic itself was still capable of being used.
- Comment on Anyone here afraid of Mannequins? 1 week ago:
I love that mechanic. It forces the players movement to be more strategic while ramping up the tension. “I have to look away to get around this obstacle, can I do it quick? How close will it be when I look back?” Then you get stuck on something and it’s like “shitshitshit”

Invented makes it sound like they came up with it from scratch. It’s more likely they bred one or bioengineered one.

It probably only eats a specific type of plastic. There are tons of different plastics all formulated differently, some could be toxic to the bacteria.

- Comment on Chips aren’t improving like they used to, and it’s killing game console price cuts 3 weeks ago:
Man they are going to ride the pandemic as a cause for high prices until it’s a skeleton just skidding on the ground. It’s been four years since pandemic supply issues, pretty sure those are over now. Unless they mean the price gouging that happened then that hasn’t gone down.

I get what you’re trying to say, that using the words fscist or nazi will turn people off. The people who want to use the site know the type of regime Trump has. Trying to be cute and playing word games by calling a fascist supporter just ideological different is wildly disingenuous.

- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 5 weeks ago:
Wow, I knew a decent chunk of the game relied on RNG but I didn’t know it was that extensive.
I got pretty lucky by getting the Nebula gun in my first world. It makes getting through trash mobs a lot easier. Its good even up to boss enemies since I can squirt them and duck under cover while the acid kills them.
I’m on Root Earth which I assume is near endgame and I’ve only unlocked one other archetype and found like three new traits. I was starting to wonder what I was doing wrong but it seems being a pain in the ass is just how the game is designed. I haven’t even found new armor yet! (I know there are two sets you can buy in Ward 13)
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 1 month ago:
Been playing Remnant 2 and its so bad I genuinely wish I never bought it. Archetypes locked behind world triggers that just don’t want to trigger, level design that is the same in each world, bosses that just spam the arena with summons and AOE attacks or have shitty gimmicks, enemies with shitty hitboxes, boringly repetitive enemy placement. Some of those things were there from the start but were put in the it’ll get better column (it didn’t) and others weren’t apparent until later in the game. I’m at the point where it’s shitty enemy swarm after shitty enemy swarm followed by shitty boss fights and I’m just done with it.

That’s absolutely not true. They have your face which they can put a name on, they know which checkout you went to and everything you bought, if it’s on sale or not, if it’s within your usual purchase baseline, etc etc, all of which goes into their tracking system.
