It’ll go somewhere. It’ll go in fuckin circles, but won’t go anywhere meaningful.

Decoy321,

The tough part to recreate is that the multiplayer was so fun because it was innovative. It was one of the first games to do stuff like that.

24 years later, we’ve had a lot of games do a lot of stuff as well.

… But I’d still happily enjoy bringing all of it back, even if it was just a cosmetic facelift.

Decoy321,

I had an absolute blast with the farsight gun. But honestly, if they bring it back, I hope they nerf the fuck out of it. Because kids online will be fucking insufferable with it.

Back then, you were playing with your friends in the same room. If one of your friends was being a douche and griefing with it, you could just slap them.

Decoy321,

Well that’s awesome! Thanks!

Decoy321,

So is this an actual Dragon Age game? An RPG like the original games?

Or is this an overwatch clone dancing on the corpse of the IP?

Decoy321,

Fuckin hell, op. This joke is so terrible, I just want to ban you on principle.

Godspeed, you delightful bastard.

Decoy321,

Get out.

Decoy321,

A positive Biden post?

better get my popcorn, the trolls are coming

Decoy321,

That game was a fuckin masterpiece. I actually don’t want it remade because I worry it would never live up to the original.

Decoy321,

Oh hey, a new civ! It’s been a while since Gandhi nuked me.

Decoy321,

I can agree with that. In fact, I just played the System Shock remake and found it quite enjoyable. It kept the same vibe and feel while just updating the cosmetic aspects and having a few QoL changes for some of the mechanics. The maps and story felt the same, and I enjoyed the nostalgic feel of playing it again.

Maybe I wouldn’t mind an alpha centauri remake. They’d only have to update the cosmetics and the UI, after all.

Decoy321,

I know you’re joking, but for anyone genuinely curious, those correspond to news updates about the trial. It’s been going on for a month and a half, after all.

Decoy321,

Because there’s always a relevant xkcd

Decoy321,

Mod here. I currently couldn’t give less of a shit.

…But I’m willing to change my mind.

Decoy321,

Eh, I feel you. But on the other hand, I know I’m not the only one in this community, so everything doesn’t have to be to my liking. Frankly, a lot of y’all post some really stupid shit here. But as long as people stay civil and follow the bare minimum rules we have, I’ll leave it alone. I’m not a Nazi Reddit mod. This is a shitpost community. Let’s post some shit.

… But like I said. There’s a limit, and rules can always change if things get out of hand. If you see anything, feel free to report it. We check the feed pretty often.

Decoy321,

Honestly, I’d settle for him fucking off and disappearing if it means we never have to hear about him ever again.

Decoy321,

They’ve also got a song where the word “It” accounts for practically 50% of the lyrics.

Decoy321,

For anyone curious, the fuck head who shot up a movie theatre in Aurora, Colorado had a similar haircut.

Was quite the putz during his trial, too. Stills from the trial made good meme material.

Decoy321,

Jesus Christ, Marie!!

Decoy321,

Dubai beat them to the idea.

Decoy321,

You gotta take the Dubai approach and just hemorrhage money at it until hopefully enough people pay you to be there.

Decoy321,

No need for insults or disrespect. Please remain civil.

Decoy321,

Nah it’s still the wolf’s fault, even when the shepherd is terrible. Take the wolf out of the equation, and the sheep live regardless of the shepherd’s capabilities.

Decoy321,

Fun hyperbole, but this all assumes wolves are the only predators.

Decoy321,

I’m okay with that.

Decoy321,

Hi there. Sorry, I removed your previous comment before I noticed your apology. I want to show appreciation for you understanding that your earlier comment wasn’t exactly civil. Thanks for being a decent human being.

Decoy321,

I found a good trick was to set your clock ahead an hour. That way you’re only 30 minutes late.

Decoy321,

The bigger news to me is that Howard Stern is still alive and on the air.

Decoy321,

What’s all this about trout now? Are trout the new beans?

Decoy321,

The Rundown is a freaking solid action comedy! Stifler brings great comedic energy. Walken is an awesome antagonist. Rosario Dawson steals every scene she’s in. All around great time!

Decoy321,

Friendly reminder, everyone. Don’t feed the trolls.

Decoy321,

Obligatory SKELETOR UP IN THIS MOTHERFUCKER!!!

Decoy321,

It helps if you also poop on company time

Decoy321,

Death to Smoochy

Decoy321,

Hey op. I’m removing this because the license plate isn’t blurred. Would you please resubmit with it blocked out?

Decoy321,

I’m guessing you got all those downvotes because people noped out and made assumptions before finishing the wall of text. It never hurts to have the /s these days.

Decoy321,

That’s the thing. Once it starts appealing to you, it loses value to the original group.

It’s one of my favorite ways to fuck with my nephews and nieces.

Decoy321,

Precisely. Another fun subtle thing to do is add “the” to the term. Gives it an extra sense of dismissiveness. It ain’t “TikTok”, it’s “the TikTok.”

Or better yet, “the tikkity tok.”

Decoy321,

I like to think of it not as a prank, but a promise.

Decoy321,

What is a problem is fake news.

Indeed. That’s why that user asked the simple question. They’re trying to determine the veracity of the information from that website.

Bias and factuality are different concepts. One source can print wildly biased, yet probably true information. While another can provide absolutely unbiased disinformation.

Decoy321,

I dunno, my dude. That’s still quite a reach to go from a simple question to automatically determining that it’s a hatchet job.

I’m not saying you’re wrong, just that you’re assuming a lot more than I normally works from a singular question.

There’s a significant difference between the two questions in your first sentence: quality of verifiability. The goal here is to determine accuracy anyways. Asking that directly will never get you an answer that you should accept at face value.

If I ask “is this accurate?”, any sourceless responses lack weight. “yes” holds as much proof as “no.”

But “has anyone heard of this” is a much lower barrier of veracity. Answers themselves won’t determine the accuracy of the article, just whether or not anyone can help establish credibility.

It’s important to question and verify sources, no matter who it is. Criticizing someone who does makes you no better than anyone pushing propaganda.

Decoy321,

What exactly is your goal here? Why are you sharing this?

Decoy321,

I’m gonna give them the benefit of the doubt and wait a couple hours for a response. If I hear nothing, this gets removed.

Decoy321,

They’re definitely a naughty one. It’s in their nature.

Decoy321,

So you not understanding polling invalidates them?

Decoy321,

GRAH!!

Decoy321,

Goddamn, that’s cold. Why you gotta insult Kevin Durand like that?

Here’s a reference of his character in Locke and Key, for anyone unfamiliar.

This one also has strong Elon resemblance
