  Sad fact: The Techno Viking got fucked over by the guy who recorded this, who claimed ownership of his image and made merch without permission

  And they went into a legal battle about it, and the viking won

  The term has the meaning now of “pointlessly explaining something in a way that’s intentionally trying to be detracting of the other party, like a stereotype of a man would do”, rather than being locked into gender

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A cool feature/mechanic you want to see in games again⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Vibes across as mansplaining, it didn’t add anything to the context

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A cool feature/mechanic you want to see in games again⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Cool. The result is the same

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A cool feature/mechanic you want to see in games again⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Cool, but the difference doesn’t matter for this context, the result is the same

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A cool feature/mechanic you want to see in games again⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, they’re different comments

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A cool feature/mechanic you want to see in games again⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A cool feature/mechanic you want to see in games again⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Fun fact: some mechanics never came back cause they got copyrighted and the studio with the copyright went “no, we’re not doing that kind of game anymore” and as soon as anyone goes “okay, can we try?” they sue them into oblivion for IP infringement

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A cool feature/mechanic you want to see in games again⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve tried some indie attempts at it, all either so buggy as to be unplayable, terrible controls, or both

  Maybe one day there’ll be a good one

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A cool feature/mechanic you want to see in games again⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Did you know Shadows of Mordor copyrighted the Nemesis System and then proceeded to never use it in any other games ever again despite people calling out for it?

  That’s one I’d like to see

  29 months is a long time?

  I’ve had this one since 2019

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reselling tickets for profit to be outlawed in UK government crackdown⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not even superstars, basically every artist that’s released any amount of music and is popular enough to tour gets the same issue

  You’re intentionally misrepresenting the situation so it fits your narrative

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reselling tickets for profit to be outlawed in UK government crackdown⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And you think it’s good that bots can automatically buy every single ticket, only to resell it at extortionate prices?

  Wow, that’s a ass-backwards view if I ever saw one

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reselling tickets for profit to be outlawed in UK government crackdown⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m complaining that resale is exploitative, and that’s very much intentional

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reselling tickets for profit to be outlawed in UK government crackdown⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  base price

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reselling tickets for profit to be outlawed in UK government crackdown⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think you’re living in a fantasy land

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reselling tickets for profit to be outlawed in UK government crackdown⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah yeah, and that’s why the ticket I bought for £20 resold for £200

  Don’t be a bleeding idiot

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reselling tickets for profit to be outlawed in UK government crackdown⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hahaha, no

  The artist doesn’t get any say in it, and the promotor is only able to suggest pricing but can’t enforce it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon travels overseas⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s another major reason tbh, cheap shite is unhealthy for you but very quick and easy to cook

  And there’s more people in USA that live under the breadline, where they’re working stupid long shifts for stupid low pay - because they can’t get anything better

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon hates dark fantasy⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Similar but a bit fuzzy sometimes, the issue is there shoehorned in some platforming too that’s less good

  Still fun though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon hates dark fantasy⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well that’s the funny thing, Zombie Movies have never actually been about Zombies, that’s the point.

  They’re about one or more of a few things;

  • the impossibility of surviving and living a happy life in a world obsessed with consumerism
  • the human ability to survive the impossible
  • society will survive an apocalypse, by banding together

  Ah but it paints fascism in a negative light, therefore woke

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why would I buy this?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah see but, Bf1 is “woke”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why would I buy this?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah it’s very simple, you would buy this if you’d made your whole personality about being a GAMER, where you believe that the only real games are FPS PvP, and everyone that plays anything else is a poseur.

  I can see it fine, also UK

  The definition strictly is “fruiting body”, that their flower head goes through a process of becoming a fruiting body
