Engy is a relaxing class only if you play on Capture the flag. The other modes are pretty stressful lol. But yeah, I usually also go for the Engy. Scout if I feel particularly adventurous, sometimes Sniper on 2Fort. Spy intrigues me but I’m just not able to use it, I’m a disaster.

Is it strange that I have absolutely NO idea what you’re talking about?

How does it compare to the first one? I’ve played it for a while but I could not really get hooked on it

I’ve seen/read so much good stuff about this game. It’s not my usual kind of game, but I think I’ll end up trying it

Krea.ai is an online tool that lets you do that, but you can also do it yourself with Stable Diffusion

Moderators would be the government. A user blocking another one would be a restrictive order. An instance blocking another one would be a cold war. Voting is voting

If this is gonna be even half as cool as it looks from the trailers, I think we’ll have a guaranteed GOTY
- Comment on Nightingale - Official Early Access Release Date Trailer | gamescom 2023 1 year ago:
This shit’s hilarious. Game looks like it’s trying to be everything at once.
Part Elden Ring, part Warhammer 4K, part steampunk, part western, part prehistoric game… Also it’s a crafting/survival game in first person, but also an action adventure in 3d person, but also a card game.

- Comment on What is the difference between roasting and baking, since they are both referring to cooking something in an oven? 1 year ago:
So I was curious about the question, so I asked Bing Chat. This was the response:
Baking and roasting are both forms of dry-heat cooking that use hot, dry air to cook food in an oven. However, there are some differences between them, such as:
- Temperature: Roasting usually requires a higher oven temperature of above 400°F, while baking uses lower temperatures of 375°F and below¹². This affects the cooking time and the browning of the food.
- Transformation: Baking often involves a transformation of the ingredients, such as turning a dough into bread, a batter into a cake, or an egg mixture into a quiche¹. Roasting typically involves whole, solid foods that retain their shape, such as meat, poultry, or vegetables².
- Browning: Roasting tends to produce more browning on the surface of the food, which enhances the flavor and texture. This is because roasting uses higher temperatures and oils that speed up the caramelization and Maillard reactions². Baking usually results in less browning, unless the food is baked for a long time or at a high temperature.
- Moisture: Roasting can cause more moisture loss from the food, especially if it is cooked at a high temperature for a long time. This can make the food drier and tougher. Baking can preserve more moisture in the food, especially if it is covered with a lid or foil³.
- Application: Roasting is mainly used for cooking meats, poultry, and vegetables that have enough fat to prevent them from drying out. Roasting can also create a crispy skin or crust on the food. Baking is more suitable for cooking fish, seafood, breads, cakes, pies, and other desserts that need to rise or set in the oven.

You’ve got them backwards: roasting dries stuff out (think of coffee beans, for instance). Baking does not (think of a cake)

Lol I honestly was not sure if your comment was sarcastic or not. I guess you’re saying that if you’re looking to spend 1000s of hours with a game (like what people do with Runescape) Vampire Survivors is not the best. Still, you can easily get 100+ hours out of the base game + another buch of hours with the DLCs.
Also I think how quick you get tired of it depends on how much you’re looking to break the game with golden eggs farming. I personally have not done it but, if you do, it becomes pretty boring pretty fast.

Man, Scrubs was great. Still one of my favorite shows ever

I don’t agree with the example of Kelso. In the latter seasons he goes from being a horrible human to a somewhat empathetic and cool sage. I love it
- Comment on Searching for a grindy game for on the Steam deck 1 year ago:
Vampire Survivors seems to fit the bill: no story, a bit of tactics, and endless satisfaction from killing hordes of enemies at once. It’s one of my most played games in the last few months.
