Yeah the bleakness of From’s settings is definitely an inherent part of their worldbuilding.

Elden Ring has the deepest, most complex worldbuilding of any game ever made, and it’s not even close. For anyone interested in worldbuilding I strongly urge you to watch some Elden Ring lore videos from The Tarnished Archaeologist to learn about the incredible techniques that the Elden Ring devs use to put incredibly deep and subtle worldbuilding into their games:

As a young nerd obsessed with RPGs and William Gibson’s work I was outraged at the idea of putting Fantasy into cyberpunk. But then I picked up a damaged copy of the Shadowrun rules from a bargain bin and was blown away by the worldbuilding, they really found a way to make it all fit thematically and logically and I ended up running the game for years.

Ah, the classic Reverse Leto.

If nothing else, Mitchell is way more fun to watch than SGA. And I love Mobley’s game.
Dallas should be great when they’re healthy, but Kyrie is out all season and I assume AD will spend half the season in civvies, as usual.

What don’t you like about the Cavs? They’re one of the most dynamic teams in the league, imo.
And the Spurs should be fun as hell this season.

but the system was still rigged from the start
And this, intentionally or not, is the real message. There’s no such thing as a real meritocracy, the system is always rigged in favor of the people who created it.
- Comment on Anon has a problem with Bioshock 1 month ago:
but the common thread seems to be that absolute power corrupts absolutely
This is not at all the intended message of Atlas Shrugs.

I will not be taking questions on how I recognise the extreme agedness of your terminology.

“Lamers”?!? What are you, like 90 years old?

There’s early access that lets you in on Thursday instead of Saturday. To get the early access you need to sign up to some EA bullshit or do what this article is saying.

Kobe’s nickname (self assigned) was the Black Mamba. Mamba Mentality was the book he wrote about his mindset. MJ was famously competitive but Kobe kind of took it to another level that bordered on sociopathic.

Hence trhe rape.
- Comment on Anon shoots for two 3 months ago:
He’s known for the “Mamba mentality”, his belief in himself, insane work ethic, and psychopathic drive to win.

That’s what I said.

I saw Bladerunner as a teenager and it affected me so much I’m now a grown-ass man living in a cyberpunk dystopia. Follow your dreams.

So is Breaking Bad just Seinfeld with drugs, because they are both set in modern modern USA?

This is kind of a weird take, GoT is not even remotely similar to LotR in style, themes or narrative.
- Comment on What's a TV series you've tried repeatedly to get into, but can't? 5 months ago:
First season is some of the best TV I’ve ever seen. After that the story lines get more and more unbelievable and the characters get less and less tolerable. Possibly the most overrated show of all time, imo.

Kudos to you, sir, just for being cool.

I’m not conspiracy minded, but it’s pretty hard to not be suss on this.
- Comment on $400 dollars in plumbing expenses from clogged toilets 5 months ago:
Yeah exactly, the people on there are both weird enough to make it up and also weird enough to be actually doing this shit itl.
- Comment on $400 dollars in plumbing expenses from clogged toilets 5 months ago:
The beauty of this shit is that it’s equally hilarious whether it’s real or made up.

Seriously? This is just some dude with a single issue axe to grind. Who is taking this shit seriously?

If Houston is willing to trade Sengun for Giannis I think that’s the best fit for everybody. Tough decision to make though.
- Comment on What's a good feel good film I can watch next week? 6 months ago:
The Wedding Singer. Even if you don’t like Adam Sandler’s usual schtick, he plays this completely straight and is really endearing. Great 80s soundtrack and Sandler and Barrymore are adorable and funny.

Multiplayer: Quake. Single Player: Half Life.
