The idea of planting a potential scorched home only to find out it was the location of your favorite chalupa place later on

For more context. He was fueding with someone who was enthusiastic about DnD

Ape Escape. I would love one with the scope of areas similar to Super Mario Odyssey

Promenade

A short 2D Collectathon in the style of 5th Generation games of the genre. Jump into a 2D world and explore, solve puzzles and overcome challenges to collect gears to take you higher. A beautiful art style and soundtrack make me wonder why this wasn't talked about more when it came out earlier this year

MMOs surprisingly have a strong controller play base mainly thanks to FFXIV. Considering it's WoW's strongest competitor, a controller layout is a solid idea

It was marketed decently enough. I remember seeing a release date trailer in 2022 and it was a known quantity before that. Was even at The Game Awards last Year. There's definitely heavy marketing right now though and it helps that the numbers are so high.

I am surprised by how one of the really first Chinese AAA games released on Steam is surprising people with how well the Chinese like it

We live in a time where people are extremely desperate to make out Taco Bell as awful and McDonalds as good. You don't need to justify eating bad food. Sometimes you just need to eat a shitty taco or salt with a side of potato. Sometimes you just need an avenue for grease. No one needs to be a health influencer 100% of the time

It's great how this panel naturally evolved

I mean, I will. I literally said that.

I'll have to look later but it will be good to have sourceable evidence for this if it's true

All I hear are excuses

When I am immune to the thoughts of questioning my finances

We found it

Hate to be that guy but if you like beefy men JoJo is a good decision. If you like overcoming the odds and beefy men. Maybe Hajime no ippo?

If Spider-Man was invented today he'd be considered a self insert. Jaded nerd gets super powers and constantly inner monologues he could beat up his bully

Ignoring the success and failure of agile and waterfall. Waterfall was just a way more enjoyable development experience for me. That would probably change if the cycle was lower though. Also doesn't help that many managers I've had don't follow the rules of agile/SCRUM. Seems like people use it as an excuse to be able to change things on any given day but those cycles are supposed to be planned, not the plans.

Not necessarily. Also depends on competency of whoever is looking at using your software/investigating and the legacy of the things you described. A whole different scenario if it's because you forgot to write something in a ticket and someone coming to call for help with docker when you have a docker setup guide they never look at.

Dumb people will double down in an attempt to present they were always right, even after they admit they were sort of wrong. If they can reverse that previous loss into a win, they were always right.

Ok

Yep makes sense. I mean it's clear people hate deep systems when something like Baldur's Gate 3 becomes the undisputed Game of the Year /s

1.5 kind of makes sense. It holds Kingdom Hearts 1 and a remake of the GBA game that comes before Kingdom Hearts 2 (also comes with a the cutscenes of another game between 1 and 2). I guess they wanted to keep the naming similar because 2.5 comes with Kingdom Hearts 2 and...a prequel to every game... and a cutscene collection of some weird side game about an AI. They then released a bundle of both of these on PS4 which they named 1.5+2.5. 2.8 they were really scrambling. Because they wanted to release the rest of the games in some way before Kingdom Hearts 3 so that holds a sequel to Kingdom Hearts 2, A standalone demo for 3 and...a movie from the earliest part of the series that actually is a giant pit of questions with no answers which may or may not have been answered by the gacha. No idea.

Pursuing a voice to match that of "Her" is a very weird move considering the story it tries to convey

Ironically EU shorthand for Europe and European Union

My birth certificate has my old name crossed out and replaced because my mum hated the way my dad pronounced it with his accent. The change is legally acceptable

Devils Advocate. Possibly can be considered a slur as by all definitions is a term coined to 'label' non-transgender. So it could just be as simple as not owning the word for some people that makes it feel insulting.

That's the only reason I could think of without it being blind hatred.

It's pretty difficult to come up with an analogy that could bring an understanding without sounding insane. If the thought process is feeling de-humanised then examples would correlate best with physical attraction but that makes you sound insane because it kind of is.

People tried to block the Activision acquisition. Some were mocked for their attempt and some were mocked for their stance. It wasn't enforced because for all the attempts, it couldn't be proved which is more an indicator better definitions needed to be in place

This is such a fanboy opinion. Sony killed basically their entire Japanese Development, had 13 GaaS in development at the same time and actively are holding back the standard of Cross Save. They give plenty of reasons to not be the 'gamer' console. Especially now when they are also beginning to drop games on gamepass.

Ironically we still know of more single player games coming to Xbox then games coming to Sony outside of Spider-Man Leaks.

Fallout is currently the hottest game on the market thanks to the Show on top of this.

This really fucking sucks but damn stop trying to use this as a way to promote your team

"can still be better but priority changed"

The problem is they think Tyler Durden is cool? And that's it, they don't empathise with the narrators realization that Tyler is insane. That's just the what the plot of the movie thinks. Same as American Psycho but that's probably more crazy given the ending is him literally losing his mind

The problem is you can also make the villain a manchild whos sick of people not agreeing with him and the internet will call him based

The message is a follow on in agreement

Don't stereotype people by the online facade. I've met maybe one weird trans person who fits the stereotype but most of the time they are normal people

It was showcased in Sony State of Plays (what felt like) most of last year but it didn't really wow anyone from them other then existing Helldivers fans. Even if a game is what people want, someone has to play it first to spread the word. Among Us is a great example of that.

I think it depends on the context. Calling me a full stack is an acknowledgement that I can work on every step of the system and usually every part of the system. I don't consider it to mean equally good.

However if it keeps getting brought up when I am not supposed to be working on those other steps, that signals to me that maybe they are trying to push more work into me that I shouldn't be do.

I can appreciate that when someone says "Our X Expert". It definitely feels like more praise and more value.

To be fair there was a large amount of time (2010s at least) where vegans weren't even trying to be appealling. It was either. Stereotypical vegan dishes but even more limited or extremely bad vegetarian meat. Vegetarian meat has improved a lot and more importantly vegan food is represented as less one note.

Don't think I'm strong enough to give up dairy but respect to those who can do so without being elitist

Probably one of the harder things that I could do. It's a replacement for TV so I could try and slot in TV but I think it would be frustrating to not have the copious amounts of content

It's like primitive AI since it's the same but the details aren't there and if the details are there, I'm not getting the full picture. It can instantly swap between the two be they never seem to overlap

I came to post always eating breakfast. I prepare overnight oats and eat it when I wake up and its helped a lot with concentration. There's definitely something to be said about a lot of marketed greasy or sugary breakfasts
