Yeah, fuck artists who come up with a specific thing they want to show people, why can’t they make another playground where they have to guess everything players might want to do and develop all of it. And write, code, animate, voice all the physics and choices.

The opinion of every US administration the last decades, Obama, Biden, Trump has been that Europe should spend more on defense instead of relying on US.
The US makes weapons, sell weapons, and controls the countries they sell those weapons to. Trump doesn’t get any of that and broke the control that US had on everyone. He’s the reason countries suddenly started getting worried that the US could turn off the planes they sold them whenever they wanted. The US has bases in every country, and Trump is the reason people are suddenly getting worried about them.
When they used to say Europe should spend more, it’s by buying American.

It is fair to be confused and not know that he’s really talking about the prescription if you don’t know what that is and you don’t know Dr. Glaucomflecken is an actual ophthalmologist from his comedy Youtube shorts.

Just the end of the syllable because you can’t end a syllable with a consonant. For t/d, the vowel used “by default” is o. If they wanted to say gold, they’d write gorudo.

and figured I would try the 7 remake when they finished which it looks like they never will.
It’s not announced yet but it’s almost guaranteed to come out next year.

You can want sex but not be sexually attracted to anyone.
- Comment on Anon goes to therapy 1 month ago:
so you’re asexual?
I want to have sex, I just haven’t
So, quick note, you can be asexual as in have no attraction to anyone and still be into sex. “I just haven’t found the right person yet!” can be it and you don’t understand the difference for decades.

For the record, I’m basing this on the movie, idk if the comic is fundamentally different or mostly aesthetically so.
The main difference was he didn’t nuke various cities, but created some giant mutant psychic squid and teleported it on New York, killing millions (somehow, between the splash and the dying psychic squid causing mass mind liquefaction), and making the world think they were being attacked by some space alien, rather than making Dr. Manhattan the enemy. Movie version was quite a nice twist.
Killing the people has never been proven to be a very effective way to stop a rogue government, if the government is not physically impacted by random civilians getting killed, however many of them are killed. But in Watchmen, he didn’t simply kill civilians - he faked a common threat that the governments would be afraid of to divert their attention. Space squids in the comics, Dr. Manhattan going biblical in the movie. Depends how hard the governments buy it. In the movie, Dr. Manhattan siding with that idea means he could probably sell it well enough to make it believable - giving the world an ultimatum after someone else already pressed the button. Who knows about the squid version. The conclusion given in the comics / movie is that he was kinda right as long as Dr. Manhattan said screw it and supported it (mass slaughter notwithstanding, of course). The whole premise also does rely on the inevitability of shit hitting the fan, which… yeah, world with or without superpowers, it’s hard to reject that notion. But today? Who knows if some sort of walking god nuke just glassing Moscow, Washington, and a bunch of other big capitals would even be enough to curb down the delusions of our major fascist nazi nutcases, outside of actually vaporizing the entirety of their armies, including the fascists in chief themselves in all countries.

And the fans are once again anticipating that it’ll be Mega Man Legends 3.
What do you mean? Capcom immediately announced it as classic Mega Man 12, and showed gameplay too, no one is expecting it to be Legends 3.

Rebirth lays the groundwork for Shinra starting a world war to generate more lifestream material (anguish of war victims) and “replenish the planet” so that they can pump out more Mako, it seems to be going pretty hardcore about Shinra being pure casual evil ultra imperialist capitalist.

How about
Middleman anonimizer, pornhub sends the message to a middleman, the middleman puts its own token on the request, sends that to the gov, the gov responds yes/no to the middleman on the authenticity of the message, the middleman forwards the response to pornhub. The gov doesn’t see pornhub, pornhub only gets the yes/no response, the middleman only sees the message with no ID and the response.

- Comment on Lara Croft is a Sociopath 5 months ago:
I think the writers pretty much admitted they had no plan for Trinity, seeing how their goal completely changed from immortality to apocalypse between Rise and Shadow. They were just the reason for Lara to track them across the world and stumble on ancient stuff.

I’m looking up the opening scene and I can’t find the therapy session itself. Maybe it was only in the trailer, I remember people thought it was weird when they released that trailer because it was unexpected at the time that this was the direction they were taking? But the game does have you find tapes of Lara’s recorded sessions talking with the therapist, like how she’s having control issues and it turns out she has become a different person in a bad way.
- Comment on Lara Croft is a Sociopath 5 months ago:
The third game of the reboot trilogy starts with her tracking this evil organization that’s been screwing with her family, finding the item they’re trying to steal to trigger an appocalypse, stealing it first, and almost triggering that same apocalypse because she doesn’t know what she’s doing, thinking she’s doing good. Second game also started with her tracking the same organization to figure out what they’re doing, and from that, she stumbles into some archaeology. It’s a long character arc, she learns that she can be good at figuring out ancient stuff, and she finds out the hard way that she can also fuck up badly when she doesn’t know what she’s doing. It’s supposed to end at the point where she’s mature enough to do better. We just see all the “fucking up” parts.

The second game of the reboot trilogy starts with Lara in therapy session about how she became a thrill addict from her survivor’s guilt from the first game and how she’s liking it.

That was very clearly on purpose, she starts panicking about the first guys she kills to survive, and near the end she’s screaming I’m gonna kill you all. That is the narrative arc. Welcome to trauma stories?
