Are they going to do something about gukmir and whoever else being permanently bound to me with no interactions beyond asking about rumors? I sped through the interaction after finishing knights of the nine and now I can’t do any missions with stealth because they go running in ahead of me. Oh and did I mention they’re invincible so I cant get rid of them?

I feel like the gameplay itself fundamentally refuses to accept spiteful/selfish players and they filter themselves out within a few hours of playtime
You have to play the team game, even if you’re the one. You cant outplay 4 people focusing you lol as long as youre clearly trying and not spamming everyone usually gives each other grace

Its definitely hard to pick up and get good at controlling the ball and having spacial awareness. My issue is that regardless of having just picked up the game they try to learn the mechanics while 2v1 at midfield.
When I started I played back and let the game unfold until I had a plan of attack. Passing the ball around, jumping in to goalkeep, covering the open man, basic stuff. Im level 30 now and every time I’ve got level 1 teammates they basically throw the game trying to do rainbow flicks and juke out the entire defense while I’m standing in goal wide open. YOU ARE NOT HIM!
Having even the most basic understanding of actual soccer makes you a god in this game just about. I have been loving it so far. I just hope people trying it out get good teammates to show them how great the game can be.

- Comment on What was life like for the "average" person living in Nazi Germany 5 weeks ago:
Im saying your family stories are probably not as accurate as historians and authors who spoke to Germans in Germany in the 1950s about being nazis. Im very sure you’re not lying about that being what they told you.
I’m calling you fantastical and wrong because painting a picture of nazi germany as a nation captive to a despot without any agency is holocaust revisionism. To say the German people were prisoners to the nazi regime is objectively false and all the documentation and research around the subject shows as much. They were very pleased with the reich and only started to sour once the war came home and started to get in the way of Germany’s greatness. Please read the book I recommended. Anecdotal evidence doesn’t prove this point wrong.

- Comment on What was life like for the "average" person living in Nazi Germany 1 month ago:
This is absolutely inaccurate and borderline revisionism. Germans were not held at gunpoint to heil Hitler or risk being shot, the average german was perfectly happy and enjoyed the comforts naziism brought them. This inaccurate portrayal does nothing but abstract naziism to be an entity that only exists under specific horrifying conditions and not the reality that for the vast majority of Germans they were happy to be nazis.
Please go read about nazi germany before you make up some fanfic about how it was just like the wolfenstein games. “They Thought They were free” is a book entirely centered around the experiences of the average German during the nazi regime and not one word of your description is in his book.
From Milton Mayer:
These ten men were not men of distinction. They were not men of influence. They were not opinion-makers. Nobody ever gave them a free sample of anything on the ground that what they thought of it would increase the sales of the product. Their importance lay in the fact that God—as Lincoln said of the common people—had made so many of them. In a nation of seventy million, they were the sixty-nine million plus. They were the Nazis, the little men to whom, if ever they voiced their own views outside their own circles, bigger men politely pretended to listen without ever asking them to elaborate.
Only one of my ten Nazi friends saw Nazism as we—you and I—saw it in any respect. This was Hildebrandt, the teacher. And even he then believed, and still believes, in part of its program and practice, “the democratic part.” The other nine, decent, hard-working, ordinarily intelligent and honest men, did not know before 1933 that Nazism was evil. They did not know between 1933 and 1945 that it was evil. And they do not know it now. None of them ever knew, or now knows, Nazism as we knew and know it; and they lived under it, served it, and, indeed, made it.

My gf says the same thing. She thinks they’re comfy but she cant wear them as part of an outfit. I’m sure if someone made joggers without the hang they’d get plenty of customers. I’m surprised nobody has tried yet, its like the only legitimate complaint I hear from people about them lol

Yeah its like the mages guild house! I wasn’t sure if the enchanting tables there were different from the rest of the game, I’m too poor to afford the candles lol that kinda sucks it costs money even at the player house. I’m broke as hell in oblivion. I keep finding new player houses right after spending my money on upgrading the last one! Frostcrag is by far the cheapest to upgrade though, I really regret not going there first :(

Ugh the bruma makes quild recommendation took me, I kid you not, and entire week. I never got any prompt options after finding the guy hiding and assumed I had to get up enough mysticism to cast dispel on him lmao
After a week of making no progress leveling mysticism I went back and they were like yeah just go get a book or something and I’ll stop hiding
The staff you get is well worth it though, I wasn’t sure what I would use a staff for so I just went with shock and holy shit that staff is the most overpowered thing in my kit. 80 points of shock damage per hit with some 120 charges when full. I only ever take it out when I’m fighting hoardes or doing a boss-like mission because it clears rooms so fast lol

Look, this guys failure to properly plan his business around his own politics is reason itself for his business to fail lmao
How does one own a small business, vote for the guy campaigning on a trade war, then get shocked when your small business is ruined by the trade war?
Oh no, the consequences of my actions, what have I done to deserve this!

- Comment on Microsoft faces growing unrest over role in Israel’s war on Gaza: ‘Close to a tipping point’ 2 months ago:
Its the technology sub, and there’s AI being deployed to infiltrate all the institutions that contain everyone’s most sensitive data. The company responsible is a tech company. That’s why it’s in the technology sub. I agree that it’s annoying to have this news blasted at me every day but I can’t just make it go away until everyone is just as sick of it and stands up to stop it.
If this were the cat memes community and someone posted this article I might forgive your attitude but, like, nobody asked? There’s three dots on the post with which you can block the community if you don’t want to be aware of technofeudalism usurping more and more of your personal life.
Scroll your subscribed feed and you won’t have this problem. I just don’t think that’s a effective way to deal with the actual problem of it being important and thus pervasive.

- Comment on The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remaster is real - Eurogamer 3 months ago:
Avowed was a recent unreal open world game that didn’t have many issues but I still had at least one point in my playthrough where every object was ghost trailing and map textures were stretched across the sky. Thats from obsidian busting their asses and it was great outside of the one major glitch.
With oblivion being what it is in its original form and then being handed to some outside studio to port to unreal it just sounds like a nightmare scenario. Maybe they’re unreal specialists idk but they can’t be better than Bethesda themselves. I’ll be holding my breath until we get confirmation but I’ll have to see what people think once it’s out before I’m gonna risk spending money on this. OG oblivion is free on gamepass and I can stream it to my phone lol
If it does end up being great, fantastic! Im just not trusting Todd Howard to do the right thing anymore lmao

Huh, I never knew satisfactory was in unreal. On that point, if they offloaded development to a 3rd party studio does that impact your expectations? Idk who it is but I saw a bunch of people saying it wasn’t Bethesda remaking it
