There’s nothing to gain from this for the publishers and such. They will however miss out on sales. So I don’t see this happening. The feature would be cool to have as a customer, ofc.
- Comment on Atomfall | Official Gameplay Overview Trailer 1 week ago:
Well, when you think about it, it makes sense. It’s a versatile and cool sounding word format or whatever you call it. You can use it for literal stuff, such as Titanfall, where robots fall from the sky or comets or whatever. But also in a collapse kind of thing, like here. And fallen civilizations and apocalypses are a popular themes, so…

How does that story portray dark skin as worse than light? What am I missing? Just sounds like the dude showed the kids that even if you change the skin color, you’re still the same person.

- Comment on Anon visits America 3 weeks ago:
I’m always interested in polls and stats. But I’m fairly confident that this one would be boring. Just your run of the mill buns, patty and whatever fillings are most popular. Usually a mix of lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, cheese (altho some might see cheese as a cheeseburger thing and think that’s not a burger)
- Comment on Anon visits America 3 weeks ago:
Nope. Tons of places make them. I have no clue what these people are on about. Just fake outrage, I guess.

It might still be free on prime gaming as well, for those that have it. At least it was a week ago.

I mean… you’d be doing it on a ship. And there’d be stuff to hold on to.

How would one allow additional bracing? You can use the same amount of bracing for both, just depends on where the bracing surfaces are. What am I missing?
- Comment on Why isn't Putin receiving the same level of hate than people like Trump and Elon are? 1 month ago:
Here. This is just one I happened to read 5 minutes before stumbling upon your post and going like “wtf is this guy smoking?” Because, yeah… Go to any post about the invasion and you’ll find putin hate comments. Hell, even on trump related stuff you’ll find plenty of trump+putin hate comments.
I think you’re just dealing with some confirmation bias enforced by the fact that there’s been a ton more trump+elon news lately than Ukraine war stuff.

- Comment on I feel this way about cinnamon. 2 months ago:
You’re confusing the ingredient list with the cooking order. Chili is a chili based recipe because that’s the main ingredient, the ingredient that needs to be there, on top of which you can add other stuff.
Those are just used as aromatics, they’re not a main ingredient . You can replace them with other stuff or just omit them altogether and you’d still get a Chili. But if you replace the chili, then you just get a stew, can’t really call it chili anymore.
Take beef bourguignon, for example. It’s a stew as well but its main ingredients, or base, if you will, are the beef and the red wine.
- Comment on I feel this way about cinnamon. 2 months ago:
According to google (and since the name implies it as well I’m inclined to believe it) it’s actually a chili pepper based stew. With or without meat. Tomatoes and beans are common ingredients, but not part of the base.
- Comment on Realistically... How fucked is the US? 2 months ago:
Well, sure, but Israel is literally surrounded by enemies. It doesn’t seem like it because of big daddy USA. But without them they could easily team up and attack from multiple sides. Especially if they get backing from Russia/China/UAE
- Comment on Realistically... How fucked is the US? 2 months ago:
No idea why you’re downvoted. You’re right. USA not existing would suck for many people, yes. Especially Israel. Europe not so much.
- Comment on Bears Cave 2 months ago:
You remember wrong. It just means “of rome” and it’s that because it was a roman province. There’s a difference between “of rome” which is what “român” means and “the true descendants of Rome” which is what you’re claiming. We’ve never claimed to be more Roman than Italians or anything. That’d be stupid.
- Comment on Bears Cave 2 months ago:
We’ve never claimed that.

Plus, drummer is always more fit than the rest cause of the effort required to play. Seems like a bad idea all around.
- Comment on smart engineering 2 months ago:
No, the joke wouldn’t have been as funny if it said “scammer” instead of “smart engineer”. Plus, I think it’s more a jab at engineers rather than anything. Because most would rather argue/explain the whole 10 vs 11 thing than just go "ok, sure, I can do that " and get paid.

Oooh, a “NO YOU!” response! Amazing, you’re 3/4. Keep going, please.

Two personal insults in two different comments, that’s also a mark of an intelligent argument.
- Comment on My mental health has improved after deleting games that have microtransactions in them 3 months ago:
Nah, if you actually played free to play games then you’d know that wow’s mtx store is a baby compared to most games such as overwatch, lol, dota, cs, valorant, PoE, Warframe, etc. and you wouldn’t be arguing with me over calling out a person for exaggerating over 6 released armor sets in the span of 4 years.
- Comment on My mental health has improved after deleting games that have microtransactions in them 3 months ago:
Play the game for a few hours or pay. Yeah, complicated. You sound like you have too much disposable income if you’re so willing to pay for stuff… also, some of us enjoy playing games and don’t mind doing it.
- Comment on My mental health has improved after deleting games that have microtransactions in them 3 months ago:
There’s a list of 2000 pieces. And only 5 sets that you can buy. Also every month you get free trader’s tender for simply logging in. You use that to buy those pieces. If you do a few world quests you get even more. I literally cap out on the monthly 1k tender by playing a few hours. Why are you people being so negative for no reason.
There’s plenty of things to hate. There’s plenty of things even blizzard are guilty of. But wow is one of the games that’s most respectful of your time. As far as MMOs go, that is. I literally have a 4 piece set without ever stepping foot in a normal raid. Only did LFR once, got 1 piece. The other 3 were given for free. You get so much shit in this game by simply logging in and playing a couple of hours it’s insane.
If you want the entire transmog collection the game has to offer, yes, you have to grind. But let’s not pretend you need to play a lot to have some nice sets. That hasn’t been true in a long time.
- Comment on My mental health has improved after deleting games that have microtransactions in them 3 months ago:
I checked the site before posting just to check because I didn’t wanna post BS, but it seems I missed a couple of things. I apologize, they also released 6 cosmetic sets in the last 4 years, an extra helm and a pair of wings.
That’s still less than you’re making it sound. Definitely not one every month. Again, not defending them or disagreeing with you, I just don’t like it when people make things sound worse than they are to get people to agree with them.
- Comment on My mental health has improved after deleting games that have microtransactions in them 3 months ago:
Except for like 3 helm pieces which they released like 15 years ago and have since available through others means, there’s literally nothing beyond a few mounts and pets. So your whole “mounts, cosmetics, miscellaneous” thing is very misleading. Other than that, I agree with you and I’m glad you’ve managed to get away. Kudos.
