I've met a few people who just fucking refuse to watch Breaking Bad and it's always someone who I know would enjoy it if they actually bothered to give it a shot. I don't know if it's your thing or not because I don't know ya, but I will still tell you what I told all of them: I actually fully understand being a contrarian but you're really only hurting yourself by not indulging in the most well-acted, well-written, well-shot show (including Better Call Saul) I have ever seen.
Oh those guys? Yeah those are just the dozens of professional voice actors we could afford to hire with our tiny baby game studio budget! And those guys? Yeah that's just our 7-person "engineering" team. What do you mean your entire studio is 4 people?
suck off me
(for the record I'm not dunking on Hades or Hades 2 as a game this is just something that pisses me (and I assume only me) off)
every time I see this guy I remember the comment from someone he went to grade school with talking about how even back then they remember all he cared about was being a politician, how he noticeably altered his personality based on how good it was for his political potential
I genuinely believe people like this are not well
mods delete if you have to I guess, not trying to instigate horny posting but I understand it's an inevitable consequence of this post
You're telling me the moment a person or organization even starts to have the potential to effect change, they shut it down?
Not saying you're wrong or anything, but comments like these always feel like a colossal understatement to me, having been recently personally involved with the unfeeling horror of this healthcare system dealing with someone who is near terminal, and then terminally ill.
As in, I don't personally believe it should qualify as manslaughter, I think it should qualify those responsible as irredeemable fodder you can freely slay without guilt. Like, faceless bad guy in a video game status.
this has me exactly 50/50 between "this is the funniest shit I have ever seen in my life" and "neither I nor anyone else should ever see this, I am logging out forever"
Now... I'm gonna try to create this post while letting only very, very little of my TITANIC rant about the death of immersion in MMORPGs leak out.
I hadn't heard of this game until today, I saw it on Steam, saw that it was an MMORPG, saw that it actually had really good reviews, and that peaked my interest. I'm an old school WoW player, by which I mean I played Vanilla WoW when it was current (though I started playing in 2005/2006 when I was not yet an adult), but I am unlike quite a lot of other WoW players in that what I miss the most about the early round of MMORPGs is that the key ingredient of those games, of the whole genre, was that they were meant to be a much more immersive kind of video game.
These days you can't even say the word around most MMO players without them mocking you for it.
So then I see this game Pantheon, and it's obviously inspired by early MMOs, but it seems like most of the focus is on its tactical, social combat system. Don't get me wrong, that's a good thing of course, but an MMORPG should be radiating personality, it should be inviting to lose yourself in the depths of its setting. Meanwhile, this game seems seriously lacking in any kind of distinct atmosphere; almost the models, monsters, buildings, environments I saw look stiff, bland, and entirely lacking their own character. The list of playable races: 
is almost entirely stale as fuck cookie cutter fantasy shit (I'm so goddamn tired of "human, human with pointy ears, short human, even shorter human") and so these things are a pretty big turn off for me.
Basically I'm trying to find out if anyone here plays it, likes it, and could sell me on it, because if it actually is good, it would be nice to have something good to play. Especially while being in need of distraction right now.
shoutout to the comment I made a while ago about how the flat earth thing is just fed shit used as a measure for the effectiveness of their ability to convince the public of whatever they want because no one could seriously post anything about believing the earth is flat ten years ago without being laughed at but now suddenly you're faced to treat this shit as if it's a serious thing to believe in all kinds of online spaces
Lmao just do communism wtf is this
lmao those cops lurking behind him like he's gonna tear off his cuffs and hulk out or some shit
You know I just keep comparing all this to the experience I recently went through, with a close one dying while being denied coverage by UnitedHealthcare at practically every turn. This woman spent her whole life as a nurse taking care of elderly and sick folks, but when it was her turn... where the fuck were her armed thugs making sure she got the help she needed? Oh, right, this shit-ass world doesn't work that way. The armed thugs only show up when some cash-bloated dickweeds need them to keep things shitty for the rest of us. Even when the primary cash-bloated dickweed in question is already dead.
what a fuckin joke
Gotta slip in some quick russophobia there at the end for good measure lol
Is it really this easy to eliminate these blood sucking monsters?
Recently had a very personal and active role in someone's journey of discovering they had cancer to eventually dying from it.
Every step of the way I was left speechless and horrified at how little her "insurance" was willing to cover, at how we were denied what I consider to be even the most basic degree of care for someone going through the painful, boring, terrifying, demeaning descent towards the end of her life. How many dozens and dozens and dozens of times I had to console her daughter, frantic and crying in disbelief that not only was she losing her mother, but also that we were constantly having to question our ability to afford the care she was being given, never for a single moment being able to wrestle with the tragedy of cancer killing her mother without also having to stare down the constantly rising cost of merely a fraction of the care that she both needed and deserved.
So uh yeah, fuck this guy and everyone like him. Fuck this whole system and everyone who benefits from the unfathomable scope of suffering it wreaks upon innumerable individuals and the people who love them.
Rot in hell, loser.
This is the level of engineering that people think is going to colonize Mars?
