Such a cool symbol, both from a visual and symbolic point of view. Extremists ruin everything.

although the ancient Romans weren’t nearly as racist.

I beg to differ considering anyone that wasn’t roman was a “barbarian” to them. They didn’t judge you on skin color like people do nowadays, but they were still xenophobic and racist as fuck.

Honestly that’s for the best, the game looked awful all around.

If we could pull back the curtain to see what entities are responsible for such vile bills of law

Evangelicals as always. In this case they’re just doing this as a “gotcha” in case Lula (and his party) moves to veto the law from being enacted and accusing him of being “pro-abortion” or something to their brainless electorate. They’re just a bunch of really sad and vindictive people with complete disregard for others.

The outrage stems from the potential removal of an 80 year old legal right (legalized abortion in case of rape) and the 20 years sentence, especially if compared to the 8 years sentence for rape. Most of the argument being made against this new law is around child rape victims being forced to give birth since most of them discover they’re pregnant very late in the process and the legal and medical burocracy leading to the abortion is rather lengthy.

I mean, this shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone considering they’ve been doing the whole paid mod thing for a good while now with Skyrim and FO4.

I fucking hate these bastards so much. I wish we as a species would genocide all mosquitos out of existence, I’d happily live with whatever biological fallout may happen as a result as long as I never have to be near one of these ever again in my lifetime.

@Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Yeah, I kind of agree. I wish they’d make a new Quake or something, Doom is cool and all but this barely resembles it. Eternal was fun, but too goofy and campy, Doom 2016 did it perfectly.

I’ve only ever seen or heard of this game from that SGDQ video, you know the one. Every time I see this game now I associate it with cringe.

That combat looks jank as fuck, not to mention the head bobbing. Could be fun though.

Such empty threats. I’d love to see them try to attack an European nation, their support in the west would end literally instantly.

Netanyahu says deadly Israeli strike in Rafah was the result of a 'tragic mistake' (apnews.com)

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that a “tragic mistake” was made in an Israeli strike in the southern Gaza city of Rafah that set fire to a camp housing displaced Palestinians and, according to local officials, killed at least 45 people....

Decided to go back to Dwarf Fortress after a long while, I’ve been basically re-learning the game and trying some !!fun!! stuff I’ve never done before. Funnily enough I think I just built my most successful fortress, outside of a really nasty tavern fight that resulted in the death of two children, one dwarf and their cat (the drunkard literally grabbed the poor sod by the tail and smashed it into a statue to death LOL), everything went rather smoothly. Lots of forgotten beasts passing through the caves, one got in while I wasn’t looking (lol) but was dispatched easily without casualties.

Thinking about building a fort on a volcano next, see if I can do some crazy magma wizardry.

It definitely has a learning curve at the start, if you’re still interested the new version has a tutorial in-game now, I can’t vouch for how good it is because I’ve never used it though. There’s also plenty of quick and easy tutorials online, I learned the basics from this one by Peridexis but it’s rather outdated by now, the wiki has some recommendations on more up-to-date ones.

Caligvla,

It unironically might be the only way some folk will listen.

I don’t even know how I feel about this. On the one hand, it’s great we’re moving away from 4 which was always a shitshow to begin with, on the other hand I have no faith whatsoever 5 is going to be even on par with 4.

Starfield was so forgettable even Bethesda already forgot about it.

Except for Nintendo, they’re still just doing what they’ve been doing for the last 20 years, releasing consoles with outdated hardware and relying on gimmicks to sell them, at this point they’re not even trying to compete anymore, Valve is a stronger competitor for Microsoft and Sony than Nintendo nowadays.

Pretty sure they’ve already tried to kill the guy at least a few times by now. I know I would if I was Putin.

Caligvla,
@Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

… No? Assassination has the goal to kill, a war has the goal of conquering or driving back someone else, deaths happen but they usually aren’t the main goal. Large scale assassination would be genocide.

The world building in Morrowind is what makes it my favorite TES game, it’s so distinct to any other fantasy game. One of my favorite aspects is how Vvanderfell has its own versions of the mainland guilds AND the mainland guilds themselves competing with their Dunmer counterparts, there’s an Imperial cult presence but the Temple also exists… It’s a very insular world with a very distinct culture and everyone just fucking hates you for no reason. It’s great.

Even the main quest is kind of bonkers when you think about it, the end goal is basically overthrowing the government and installing a Dunmer ethno state… And the Emperor is fine with it lol.

Caligvla, (edited )
@Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

I’m referencing the Nerevarine prophecy which states that the reincarnated Nerevar would restore the worship of the original gods and drive out the outlanders from Morrowind, it’s basically an ethnostate by that point. What I find most bizarre is the fact that the player is basically responsible for destroying Vvanderfell after killing Vivec (or at least making him mortal again) and causing the Red Year, I don’t remember if it’s ever implied in the game that that’s going to happen, but in retrospect you’re not really the hero of the story, you basically killed everyone post-credits lol.

Nice. RimWorld and Factorio devs could learn a thing or two from these guys…

My understanding is that they reconciled both names some time ago, the character’s in-universe real name is Dr. Ivo Robotnik and Eggman is the moniker he’s known for.

I dream of one day Nintendo going bankrupt and being forced to sell their IPs to the highest bidder.

The game has like four major maps, that’s why it feels tiny compared to your average CRPG that has dozens of smaller maps to create a sense of a big diverse world.

Wait, the guy is named Ariel? What the fuck.

Caligvla,

Last I checked Ariel is a female name.

Nah man, I agree. Many liberals (especially young) have this mindset of punishing people for “wrongthinking” instead of educating and getting them on their side, that shit only further radicalizes moderate people into the polar opposite of what you want. I’ve had this discussion with people before and it seems a lot of people either have a hard time telling the difference between unwitting ignorance from acts of bad faith or they just don’t care at all and think anyone even a bit right from them needs to be in a shallow grave. I feel like this aggressive behavior is part of the problem of why so many people are getting “redpilled” into the far-right.

Wait, but if they pulled the game from Steam shouldn’t the owners still keep the game (DLC in this case) on their libraries?

Caligvla,
@Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

That can happen? I wasn’t aware developers could literally remove a game from your Steam library, if so that’s really shitty and scummy.

Caligvla,
@Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

I guess, but so the owner chose to get a refund, right? If so then that’s to be expected, if that’s the case then I don’t see what the fuzz is about. Unless the refund was forced onto the customer.

Caligvla,
@Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Well then my opinion stands, that’s pretty shitty. The choice to refund should ultimately lie with the customer not with the company.

Falcoms sound team was absolutely on point for this title.

They always are, if there’s one thing Falcom does consistently well it’s the soundtrack.
