tbh, I loved SuperGiant's themes and aesthetics, but not their gameplay. So often early games of Bastion and Transistor felt squishy, or like I was playing underwater - the response loop from button push to effect on screen seemed laggy. Tried both on various platforms, never really got past that feeling. lovely soundtracks tho
I think that there's a substantial percentage of the idiot population who are entirely, blissfully unaware of how excruciatingly stupid they are. Sure they make mistakes, but life keeps on trucking, no consequences so it couldn't have been that big a deal right?
the level of stupidity involved with formulating this sentence still gives me pause. What the actual fuck are you trying to say, Hesgeth or whatever idiot on the signal chat.... do you really think you're 'clean' on 'opsec' IN FUCKING SIGNAL?
they heard the term opsec from one of their security detail and wanted to jam it in there because it sounded cool.
i never want to see more conflict, but goddamn if putin's gonna play stupid games it would be amazing to see them try this shit. imagine tens of thousands of Simo's lighting orcs up with javelins and an actual military
Maybe I’m in the minority here, but to me I’d consider throwing a god-level NPC at your players explicitly to punish them for their behavior to fall pretty squarely under “screwing them over”.
yeah obviously that's how you see it because you only see things one way, throughout this entire convo.
I get that.
the rest of us playing ttrpg's don't see it as 'oh they've sent punishment' - no, the dm is tailoring the world to react to the player's shenanigans. should the DM just drop everything and cater to whatever whims the PCs devise?
yet you don't use airquotes elsewhere. you really think the DM is a rival to the players, it shows in the shit you're writing out.
imho, you've been playing the game wrong for a long time. you need to stop thinking of the DM as some counter to your players and instead think of them as an orchestra conductor.
I shouldn't have to explain this shit to you either. you're either being willfully ignorant or motivated to start some shit. not my monkeys,not my circus.
I disagree. VW could have crashed their diesel production in favor of hybrids and EVs. They're playing late to the game catch up now and may not survive at all. Putting off something you know is coming - the end of diesel vehicle prevalence - through deception YOU KNOW WILL RESULT IN MILLIONS OF VEHICLES CONTRIBUTING WORSE EMISSIONS BUT BEING REGARDED AS BETTER - that's fucking heinous and criminal.
Oh maybe you have an extra biosphere we can slap on to the one being wrecked by CO2? No?
Anyone who knew the truth is complicit in that destruction and we're only beginning to quantify the harm.
I call them orcs because of their inhumane behavior on the field of conflict.
And yeah, it'd be real, real bad for any poor ivan crossing that border.
