Graveyard? Happy ending? You sure this doesn’t involve necrophilia? 🤨

Oklahoma’s State Superintendent Requires Public Schools to Teach the Bible (www.nytimes.com)

Oklahoma’s state superintendent on Thursday directed all public schools to teach the Bible, including the Ten Commandments, in the latest conservative push testing the boundaries between religious instruction and public education....

Mom, can we have theocratic shithole?

No, we have theocratic shithole at home

mysticpickle,

Don’t buy Disco Elysium. Pirate it.

Original devs got screwed over by the publisher and have encouraged folks to pirate it as not to let the publisher profit from their shittiness.

mysticpickle,

Sadly access and affordability are inversely related to profits and stock price :<

mysticpickle,

Every other fascist tankie I see here is from lemmy.ml

mysticpickle,

Shoot did anyone else only see what they wanted to see and read FREE instead of DRM FREE? 🙈

mysticpickle,

That international arms dealer for WNBA player trade reminded me of that kid in middle school that traded away his Mox Ruby for a Serra Angel because it looked cooler.

mysticpickle,

But you got TWO coins! That’s like twice as good as one!

mysticpickle,

I don’t like terrorists buuuuut it’s happening in Russia so ((shrug))

mysticpickle,

What are those pants made of? Transparent aluminum?

mysticpickle,

I take issue with labeling this game as “hotly anticipated”. Literally did not hear about this game until now and from what I’m reading it seems like another boring ARPG with a new coat of paint slapped onto the same mechanics.

mysticpickle,

Think they probably over-balanced the game into a state of utter blandness.

Yeah mvc2 had some busted characters but they all had personality at least

mysticpickle,

Oh yeah, because the Bethesda of today would totally not fuck it up sunshine hehue

mysticpickle,

Whoops you’re right!

mysticpickle,

Hell to the yeah! Put in my pledge and tried to spread the word as far as I could too.

((Happy Camper))

mysticpickle,

Tiktok and Facebook.

Literal fountains of stupidity.

mysticpickle,

Waving terrorist flags in New York City is a good idea hyuk hyuk :>

mysticpickle,

Can they work on making the game compatible with my brain as well? I really wanted to like POE but it bounced so hard off of me when someone told me there’s a difference between “more” and “increased” when it came to item stats.

Trying to figure out basic things like “Will this do more damage than this?” was like trying to learn Sanskrit.

Unless these are a part of a free game giveaway yawn

If I’m spending actual cash to buy games on a platform I’d sooner go with GOG

mysticpickle,

This is probably an unpopular take but I still feel like trading “The Lord of War” international arms dealer for a wnba player feels like we left a lot behind on the table of that particular deal.

mysticpickle,

Tried to sign up for an account but I never got a confirmation email. Checked spam folders but nothing was there.

I was using my yahoo mail account. Does it only work with Gmail accounts?

mysticpickle,

Uff took about 3 hours for the email to arrive it seems. When I clicked the link today after checking my mail again, it said the link was expired reeeeee. I’ll probably just wait for the official release. Thanks for your help though!

mysticpickle,

Star control 3 was garbage that was star control in name only.

Star control: Origins was made by assholes at Paradox Entertainment that tired to steal the IP from the original creators. The game was basically a pretty soulless carbon copy of star control 2 without the witty dialogue or creative story telling of the original.

Neither of these “prequel/sequels” were made by the original creators Fred Ford and Paul Reiche III.

That’s why this Kickstarter is fire AF. The OG creators have full control here and are making it with the original vision that made sc2 great!:

kickstarter.com/…/free-stars-children-of-infinity

They even released the original Star control 2 for free on steam in preparation:

…steampowered.com/…/Free_Stars_The_UrQuan_Masters…

Granted it doesn’t have the “Star Control” name due to aforementioned IP trolls at Paradox Entertainment but everything else is the same otherwise! :>

A proper sequel to Star Control 2 from the original creators Fred Ford and Paul Reiche III is on Kickstarter! (www.kickstarter.com)

Star Control 2 was a seminal gaming experience for me in my younger days and I’m pretty pumped about a proper sequel to it from the original creators, Fred Ford and Paul Reiche III, after so many years!...

mysticpickle,

Thanks for posting this!! I just backed the Kickstarter now. Star Control 1 and 2 were seminal gaming experiences for me. More people need to know about this!! :D

EDIT: Direct link for the Kickstarter:

kickstarter.com/…/free-stars-children-of-infinity

FREE version of Star Control 2 on Steam for folks that haven’t played it yet and want to get on the HYPE train:
