My bad, but its my duty to always reference it. (They mail me some fanta ever time I do it, which is wierd, i never gave them my address, and I'm afraid what will happen if i stop)
So how does it feel to not have a country? To not have borders to define yourself against the world? (I guess seven nukes do make a clear border, huh?)
Keeping up with some weekly stuff, but heres my favorite of this week: Watashi no Musuko ga Isekai Tensei Shitappoi. Yes, it had Isekai in is title, but don't let that fool you. Its mainly about a mourning mom, whose child died in an accident, and her coping mechanism is that he actually got isekai-d, and trying to find a way to bring him back. Its pretty heavy, and more about the mind working through grief, but its just makes you feel, you know?
Its a bit extreme, but crack-life for half-life. You know there are some people saying they get brain rot from memes? This is like the bottom of a sinkhole for your iq. Every sound is some random effect, the wortigons have afros, the headcrabs are British, your hud is in webdings, the soldiers speak in old tts and the smg has infinite fast firing grenade launcher.
Is a lot, and while you are lost in a word where nothing makes sense, you are losing your ass off. If that's isn't enough, there's a standalone mod, that's even stupider, even bigger, even more bizarre.
But it's probably not for everyone, its very 2000 edgy humor, so if it's not your thing, don't force yourself with it (might wanna check some vids, Jolly has a good ones, but i think he deleted it some time ago).
I dont want to defend this kind of monetization, but pd2 probably had the best kind of approach, as only the host needed it start it, so if someone had it in your friend group had it you were good.
Well exept for the weapon and perk decks, as you only got them if you had the dlc, but it didn't split the playerbase.
(also fuck the loot boxes)
Maybe Mob Psycho 100? Same writer as One puch man, but isn't as heavy on satire, and a much more down to earth take on how to handle great power.
On the other hand my personal rec if Golden Kamuy, a treasure hunt kinda adventure manga. Has some darker tones, but the cast is really funny.
