pyre,

not to mention the casual use of the hard R. even Linus from LTT admitted to have dropped his fair share of hard Rs back then.

pyre,

it played during installation, didn’t it? what a way to build up hype. ah the ancient times when EA games had soul.

pyre,

I’m sorry but why was I forced to pay for you to get to places? Build your own goddamn road and stay off mine, bitch.

pyre,

Pyre. Guess where my username comes from.

It’s a supergiant game so the usual is there: Great characters, interesting story, great dialog, fantastic art… very touching and inspirational all around. To this day it is the only game that has actually made me feel conflicted about playing well.

At a certain point in the story I just couldn’t, and it felt like my hands were sabotaging my game independently. Weird ass feeling. And purely for character reasons, nothing really to gain from it mechanically.

What I love about it was that this wasn’t really presented as a typical videogame dilemma. Nothing in the gameplay was different. It was just another “game” that I was expected to win, but one of my characters was desperately hoping to lose.

Well I lost that time and felt good about it. No game has made me make a decision that completely ignored the gameplay implications.

“Do you want to save this little girl or literally torture her and suck her life force? The evil option will give you immediate rewards but the good option will give you better rewards a little later and also the good ending!” Wow Bioshock, really tough choice there, thanks for putting my noodle to work.

pyre,

it is still unplayable in over 100 countries. i bet some of those people heard, you know, when they couldn’t log in.

pyre,

He’s already said he generally doesn’t like sequels for that reason. His YouTube channel is a treasure trove btw.

pyre,

When has a right-wing joke ever been funny

pyre,

it is though. same with women getting more lenient sentences for the same crimes, custody inequality, etc.

pyre,

why? this is all the results of men being in power, including the odd thing that favors women sometimes, like custody battles being usually easier for women. it comes from the patriarchal view that looking after children is the mother’s job and the father barely needs to have anything to do with it.

same here: men are stronger and women are weaker, not to mention women shouldn’t be working to begin with but since they do they might as well retire early.

pyre,

wtf are you talking about?

pyre,

maybe, I mean it tracks with enlightened centrism people speaking utter nonsense while trying to sound deep and thought provoking… but it still bothers me. what does it mean to let go of the democratic party or the united states…

pyre,

the bar is so low. did everyone forget who this guy is?

pyre,

wake up calls don’t do shit when you’re not interested in “waking up”

pyre,

when your canoe rental is really going for the SEO

pyre, (edited )

remind me, was the S10 the last Samsung phone that didn’t explode or literally fall apart in your hands?

edit: fuck all the downvoters. i have an s20fe. it literally cannot handle hot weather, and the fucking glue gives in, completely removing the back cover. how about some notches and shit? really we can’t make any mechanism for the covers, we’re just gluing things now? is this a Tesla phone?

pyre,

I’m shocked that yet another anti-woke pos who gets triggered by pronouns turned out to be a predator. would’ve never guessed!

pyre,

“8 years ago”

holy shit it took me three years to click that link? no wonder I’m getting my ass kicked in overwatch

pyre,

transhumanism it how we get those legs and pincers

pyre,

Whenever I look at Data I see Matt Mercer.

pyre,

i think his expressions resemble him as well

pyre,

the real crime here is this death trap being allowed on the road in the first place.

pyre,

dude you clearly don’t know anything about Islam. it neither restricts martyrdom nor the concept of jihad to war.

pyre,

next up, invade random countries… don’t mind me I’m just going through Hitler’s to-do list.

pyre,

this isn’t marketing to adults. it’s marketing to teenage boys.

pyre, (edited )

mighty brave for an emperor to see that their water has changed color, and decide to try it anyway.

pyre,

“i don’t want to see shit like this”

“you can upvote it so more people see shit like this as well”

thanks, very cool

pyre,

pack the goddamn court you cowardly libs.

pyre,

wait, he ACTUALLY SAID HE’S QUOTING HITLER???

when i read the title i thought he said something identical or very similar to something Hitler said maybe without knowing… all fascism leads to the same destination after all, you don’t need to be deliberate about it. (remember how people said TFG was quoting hitler and he said, and i paraphrase, “i didn’t know he said it i just came up with the same conclusion on my own” as if that doesn’t make it worse… kinda like that)

but NO! he literally quotes Hitler by attributing the quote to Hitler without a modicum of irony. dude the israeli government has gone do far deep into fascism that they can’t even use the thinnest veils as cover.

pyre,

i shouldn’t have used the word “government” as what i meant was more along the lines of Israeli politics in general. not that the government itself is much better, they just haven’t name checked Hitler as much yet.

although natenyahu already has engaged in apologia for Hitler himself so it’s not far off anyway.

pyre,

the dwarf is the blacksmith. some fantasy worlds say dwarves have beards on men and women. here the hyena sees the dwarven woman not having a beard and says funny how false rumors spread. and she says it’s not false; we just don’t have it on our faces. it’s lower, meaning it refers to their pubic hair.

pyre,

yes, every “conquest” adds a new ring to the… beard.

pyre,

what annoys me is that no one cared about this until Sarah Palin made a big deal out of someone calling her that and she pretended to get offended for her baby with down syndrome as if it was targeted on them.

but I’m also ok with never saying it again. not a big loss who cares. at least we got a legendary Linus clip out of it.

pyre,

that’s not what we’re talking about. as the original commenter said, using the r word to refer to any mentally challenged person was already a no-no. that law changed official use of the word, not the r word itself used as an insult.

pyre,

if you think people started saying r-word in the 70s you’re out of your mind

pyre,

ok, but the r word was very much acceptable through the early 2000s. it was even casually used on tv.

Colorado Republican Brutally Grilled By Local News Anchor: ‘Why Is Abortion Good For Your Girlfriend? Bad For Other Women?’ (www.mediaite.com)

Colorado congressional candidate and sitting State Rep. Richard Holtorf ® received a tough grilling this week at the hands of local 9News anchor Kyle Clark over his apparent hypocrisy when it comes to abortion rights....

pyre,

this guy comoderated the republican primary in Colorado as well and he was incredible. didn’t take bullshit and put everyone (including and especially boebert) in their place. what a hero.

pyre,

tim pool is probably already making a video about it

pyre,

Premium lets you watch ads with up to 4 blinks per ad without pause or a total of .4 seconds of looking away from the ad without pause.

pyre,

well you can’t stop people from bringing joints by making it illegal; that way only the bad guys would bring joints. instead everyone should bring joints to school because the only thing that can stop a bad guy with a joint is a good guy with a joint.

pyre,

to be fair to you, technically those are other words.

pyre,

wow, you get one two a handful of planes fall apart in air and suddenly you’re not “reliable” anymore. this is woke cancel culture at work!

pyre,

yeah but the talking was annoying af. it felt like they had like four people voicing the entire game. meanwhile a small independent studio like supergiant makes a much smaller game fully voice acted but doesn’t feel exhausted as quickly as Skyrim, with thousands of lines both written and performed fantastically. i can’t excuse anything Bethesda is doing anymore. they’re getting worse with every game, both in terms of writing and gameplay.
