Not One Of Us

@Pirat_Nation Could've spent some of that ten years giving some more frames to the running animations.

The dev behind Bridgebourn spent 10 years building an RPG that looks 3D, but is actually made in 2D. According to its Steam page, it’s an immersive action RPG set in a hand-painted dynamic open world >Uses 2D hand-painted art to create a 3D-like world >Camera shifts between orthographic and perspective views >Depth is created with parallax layers and warped sprites >semi-open world to explore >Includes party-based ARPG gameplay >Lets you create custom spells and chain reactions

@UnnamedARPGDev @fatfabfeminist The former is cultural exchange, which has gone on for millennia. The latter is multiculturalism - which, by definition, does not work, such culture encompasses everything.

@fatfabfeminist Kind wonder where was the exact point we started moving from “isn’t it fun to learn about other cultures?” multiculturalism, to “import half the population of a group that absolutely refuses to assimilate because fuck you” multiculturalism.

this is the world we were supposed to have

@MattBraynard But given that language changes over time, and the utilization of a word can decimate it's meaning, is that not just proper evolution? It begs the question.

This is my #2 pet peeve after the misuse of "beg the question." Do better, anglophones.

Pet peeve: to "decimate" means to reduce by 10%, so stop using it like it's a synonym for "destroy." Just say "destroy." You don't sound smarter, you sound stupid.

@exQUIZitely @RazgrizXT Halo was the downfall of the genre.

@RazgrizXT Impersonally think that FPS peaked in the 90s. People will say Halo… but I got back.

Just before the old millenium ticked over into the new one, we were blessed with yet another legendary FPS game that helped define a genre and cement the legacy of the 90s decade: Unreal Tournament (Epic Games, 1999). Wolfenstein, Duke Nukem, Doom, Quake, Half-Life... and Unreal (Tournament) - absolute benchmark setting games. Maybe it's "ancient" by today's standards. But it was one of the best of its kind back then, and I'll take a bet and say many fans still prefer this over today's shooters. Or maybe I am just getting old and gloryfing things from the past too much. Do you prefer modern FPS over the classic legends from back in the day?

@WayneOWastes @SandyofCthulhu Now I want to see a film or read a book about Nazis vs the Confederacy.

@SandyofCthulhu I think there's a nonzero chance when he made Star Wars in the 70s, the height of 'outlaw country,' that the 'rebels' with their 'yeeehawws!' were channeling the confederacy as well. He'd never cop to it now, though.

The Viet Cong flamethrowered villagers. They were not uniformly good people. After North Vietnam conquered the south, they straight up murdered about 60,000 people in re-education camps and another 250,000 boat people died trying to escape the re-education camps. The bad guys won the Vietnam War, and all my boomer buddies who look on the NVA and VC fondly are blind and deaf and retarded. That includes Lucas. That said, the modern Vietnam are mostly not the evil and corrupt men that were committing the atrocities, and I'm sure they're unaware of those atrocities.

@markgreen1978 Like Afghan and Iraq, the ground war would be easy. It's the occupation that turns it into Vietnam.

be america find downed pilot with zero casualties irgc militia bodies everywhere shit, we might win a ground war.

can someone give me the tldr on the whole Artemis thing

@Dongurihou Silent Hill. The first one, but also up through 4. Team Silent was one of the all-time greats. Also, the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Forever unmatched.

@2eggwhite Just 25? I'm going on 30.

Being online daily for 25 years has given me a particular set of skills that are both completely useless and also uniquely unsettling #TheLongHaul

@MoshiMoshiMoan Sounds like an improvement.

I am now convinced that the reason the algorithm is so shit and everyone's reach has died is because Elon doesn't want a social media platform, he wants a blog with a captive audience who is forced to read his 24/7 stream of consciousness because they can't see any other posts.

@wh1tebaby @Grummz You no longer want to play games, you just want experiences.

I want to agree, and for the most part I do, but as I get older and take on more responsibilities in life, I continue to fall behind on new game releases and my backlog looks like a collection and not a to-do-list. If I have to spend hours trying to solve a puzzle, even if its my own skill issue, I’m probably just going to move on or look it up. It should be a toggle for sure, but it would stay on for me because I want to experience the game and move on to the other games I havent gotten to experience. My backlog already implies that I just collect games and don’t play them lol

Yellow paint has absolutely ruined a generation of gamers. So have “movie games” where you push a button to advance.

@markgreen1978 Dizzy, easy.

hypothetically, if you put a gun to my head my head and said "marry one of the china connect girl rn!" idk man, i'd probably say ember.

@CloneManga Looking good! Maybe you'll finish this by 2037! [This has been your annual berating]

Progress! Sitting down and drawing with a bit of music playing is great.

@Our_Man_in_KL @MoshiMoshiMoan They should've had it in three days, but the Russian logistics was so horrifyingly bad they screwed it up. Like, that may be the worst logistics in human history. The long stuck convoys toward Kyiv were just embarrassing.

@MoshiMoshiMoan It was US general Milley who came up with that 72 hours nonsense. Oops!

>Take out Venezuela >Take out Iran Hey I know Russia is busy with year 4 of its 72 hour special operation but someone wanna DM Putin a screenshot of what a competent military operation looks like? Thanks.

@SandyofCthulhu You don't understand, Sandy: when guns were invented by John L. Gunsmith in 754 B.C., they were non-lethal. Soon after, someone made them more powerful, and then the first murder in recorded history happened. It was a mistake and we must rectify it.

Is he unable to understand that sometimes you WANT to be able to inflict immediate stopping damage on a target? Consider his two images. A meth-crazed assailant menaces you. One bullet from the first image doesn't stop him. You have to shoot several more times. He dies. One bullet from the second image instantly stops him. He will probably live. A cop told me that a guy on PCP attacked his cop car and broke the front windshield with his fist. They somehow managed to subdue him and when he came out of his drug frenzy they discovered he'd broken several bones in his hand. But he didn't care and would have kept on punching. He's lucky the cops didn't kill him. I just want the bad guy to NOT be able to hurt me or my wife. More damage is a good thing from my point of view.
