“How’re you guys doing? Like mentally? Sending this many people to their deaths must have weighed on you. It’s difficult to adjudicate borders, so you place the fate of others in the hands of something separate from you. Something guiltless. At night, beside a comforting fire and lush with drinks, I imagine that you reassure one another of your innocence. ‘The traveler didn’t die because we sent them to their death, the puzzle killed them.’ That’s a hard way to live and I’m sorry that you have to live it.”
in unison “I’m doing alright.” A tear rolls down the cheek of the brother on the left. You’ve got him.
I don’t really understand the hype behind helldivers. To my eye, borderlands is essentially the same game but with greater variety, fewer hiccups, and a lower price.
I mean, more midnight club vs need for speed but I take your meaning. And yes, aside from the stories and one having significantly more content, they’re essentially the same game. I’d have said battlefront 2, but I don’t respect the remake and fishing out multiple ps2s to play online is preposterous.
Between swings of the arm, I question whether she does what she does out a desire to display republican ridiculousness in its rawest form. No real grandstanding, no duplicity, simply performance. Is it right to impart so much hate on a woman potentially offering the world’s most profoundly misunderstood satire? Then, as abruptly as the notion entered my mind, it vanishes as I continue flinging salt at her.
Somehow, I’d never envisioned North Koreans surreptitiously performing remote work until today. Visibly offering prisoners as destructible laborers? Absolutely. Animation studio corrections? Way out of left field. WB cutting ties in January with the studio likely responsible for subcontracting to NK does seem a bit suspect, though.
Dunno whether this counts (free full game, no DLC, 10+ years old) but I’m loving battle for wesnoth. Some dialogue is stunted but it’s among the best hex grid strategy games I’ve played.
I knew about its initial release but had no clue whether it was the same team or an offshoot so I settled for a safe 10 years.
I recommend picking it back up if you enjoyed the campaigns. It’s just recently reached a third renaissance with an abundance of new fan content. No clue why.
It tends not to dawdle and is open to customization. Want a map? Make it. Want a unit? Make it. If you really want to get obsessive about any aspect then the option is available. Top it off with surprisingly nice art, a good community, and a sprinkle of nostalgia and you get a spicy pizza pie.
I love the original patientgamers subreddit so I was stoked to find this community. And because lemmy seems to have a more knowledgeable crowd any topic I posted here had great engagement and discussions, despite the small community. I am too busy to be a mod but maybe I can help by sparking this discussion: what would be needed...
You elect a man with thick, rich veins pumping powerfully with American spirit. His hair is long and full, nails are gorgeous, skin just the right mix of rough and supple- the kind of skin you envy in the the mirror as you wipe soap from your chin in the morning and contemplate changing your regimen for the fiftieth time. Every delicious word from his luxurious, crinkled lips morphs into a verbal assault on your identity when you learn she is a liar. A betrayer. Undesirable. You vow never to be duped again as you donate 20 dollars to the Trump campaign.
In a recent FAQ spotted by Automaton, Housenka responded to a hypothetical of “I’ll promote you, give me a Steam key” with a delightfully blunt: “Buy it, you piece of garbage.” Or, as Automaton translates it from the original Japanese, “Buy the game, you piece of sh*t.” I can’t decide which I like better,...
!tankiejerk is the syntax for linking to communities. I feel it’s used too rarely on Lemmy, leading to the slow propagation of information and few people using the unique features that make the lemmyverse navigable. I’d never manage to reach the communities I’m searching for if not for easy linking.
Will edit it in when I find more but this is Lemmy’s markdown tutorial. It covers a few items uniqueish to lemmy, especially cool are magnet links, but I’m not sure where they keep info about other unique features. Offhandedly, the only other thing I can think of is linking to profiles with @Gullible. (This does ping the user, btw)
Edit: I got nothing, it’s impossible to find and/or doesn’t exist. No other option. But if someone else finds it, a link would be helpful.
There is currently a very funny, kind of sad dust-up over Helldivers 2, in which self-proclaimed “anti-woke” gamers have previously heralded it as a rare game where they believe “politics” does not play a factor. Their faith was been shaken by an Arrowhead community manager they believed they found to be (gasp)...
Poe’s law was a concern even before its inception by known bigot and casual science fiction writer Edgar Allen Poe. Satire is a corpse animated in allegory to any cause the reader sees fit.
Yes, from the WEF in particular. It’s such an inane idea that it drips with sarcasm even when sincere. They described a utility without any of the makings of a utility. I wish it hadn’t been adopted by right wingers and turned into a catchphrase.
I’ve only ever seen a few iterations of the guided gorilla attack. No, I was referencing my favorite part of the navy seal pasta, the master of gorilla warfare.
Update: Thanks to a few of y’all who got me to look at things differently I think there was a miscommunication. I called my mom, and sorta cleared things up, they said they thought that my message out to them was saying I was planning on celebrating trans day of visibility, and not just mentioning it off hand after accepting...
The one thing that I appreciate about twitter’s interface is how transient its information is. If people, twitter’s only actual commodity, can be convinced to move then very little is lost in the transfer. No clue why mastodon isn’t gaining ground faster considering its relatively massive userbase. It should have reached a tipping point already.
If I (with consent) spray cum all over my wife, have I angered god the government with my seed? If so, who do I visit to obtain a permit for bukkake? Do each of us have to get a permit or can I put it under an llc? I don’t want to have to scoop it off and into her.
There’s only so much time in the day and devoting much time to poorly designed games is silly. Finding a time tested production from 5+ years ago that plays as well or better than recent games is a minority decision but an objectively reasonable one. Cheaper and assured quality? Yes, please! It’s always nice to find someone likeminded.
Might feel like a tangent but how do you feel about aliexpress? I’ve been burned by several month shipping times so it’s surprising to find someone who seems to use it reasonably frequently.
That feels like the distilled spirit of the jokes contemporaneous to the popularization of online shopping. A perpetual double-blind opaque Christmas at your front door brought to you by [shipping company].
I might give them another shot if you managed to find something of worth. As long as I remember to set a reminder about the item to refund if it hasn’t shipped after 4 months. Thanks.
