  • It can be good for certain builds, but in practice 2-3 of those +1s end up being meaningless for most characters, and with the Tasha's changes, every character can freely distribute +1/1/1 or +2/1, making it a wash in almost every case, including on Vumans who can pick up an additional +1 from the feat. Between that and only getting one floating skill proficiency when most heritages get a fixed or small list skill proficiency in addition to one or more standout features, base human is by far the weakest choice.

    I think giving a feat, a skill and an expertise would be a good way to set them apart a little bit from the other heritages.

  • Most of us don't anymore. People have stopped having kids and stopped investing in their communities because work makes it impossible. I look to the future and see forty more years of hell, assuming climate disaster, preventable disease, or an impending WWIII don't kill me first.

  • I'm going to second this, with a couple asterisks. $800 for the computer is probably about where you get the most bang for your buck in terms of AA/AAA gaming, but you will still need peripherals - keyboard/mouse, speakers/headset, and a monitor, that can tack another $1-200 on the price (notwithstanding that even if the controllers come with the console, you still need a TV.) Logical Increments puts their "good" tier at about $761, suitable for 1080p 60FPS with medium settings.

    Arguably the bigger value here is not being locked into a platform - if you find yourself with a little more budget down the road, you can piecemeal out your old PC with newer parts for a lower cost than a new console (with the possible exception of the GPU) and you can get more utility out of a PC than a console.

  • Generosity is not a substitute for justice. A billionaire could give up literally every dirty dollar, but the people who worked themselves to a walking death to make that money can't get their time back. That's lifetimes of separation from family and community. That's an avalanche of mental health issues that never go away. The damage is already done.

  • And then 'inflation' on the basket of goods jumped like 200% because every corporation used the supply chain disruption as an excuse to jack up prices and suppress wages.

    I sure hope the boomers didn't want grandkids, because I don't see it happening in my lifetime, let alone theirs.
