JRPGS are the game equivalent of switching between reading a book and playing chess every 20 minutes. They're great on their own but the story and the gameplay may as well be entirely different forms of media.

Nier was fucking awesome but it should have been a book instead of this 15 hour game filled with fun but basic combat.

Nuclear Throne in perfect action roguelite imo.

Simple, refined, and fun as hell. The perfection of fast-paced action combat. Nearly unlimited mechanical depth but you can explain everything in 5 minutes.

Tell me all the digits in Pi or some other irrational number so that I can get pseudo eternal life.

Since we have a wish-granting entity then that means the supernatural is somewhat real and I use my newfound time as well as the frozen world to learn everything I wanted and possible ascend beyond humanity.

Nuclear throne for single player

TF2 for multiplayer. I wish I had an actual group to play with though.

For personal preference, assuming I didn't have to worry about getting a job, Lisp no question.

Otherwise, I'd have to go with C++.

If you have to ask, you're probably a trot.

bill nye perfectly explained axial tilt causing seasons to millions of children, and that greek myth shit is needlessly complicated and stupid as hell compared to "look at ball tilt"

Except axial tilt merely explains the change in weather. It doesn't account for the experience of the changing of seasons like trees losing their leaves. Sure, you could pull out more science but having to explain cosmology, biology, and weather systems to a kid who asks "Why is it cold in the winter?" is kinda silly. Otherwise, you're just telling them about an abstraction of an abstraction interpreted through your elementary school science teacher.

You're not Bill Nye with a team of writers and a TV show budget. Your you and presumably being asked on the fly by your kid.

Literally the exact same.

I think it's because I have a "reason" to talk to them so I can justify it to myself. Oh, I have to introduce myself and say hi in this context as its polite. After I leave that conversation I don't have a reason to talk to them so it gets so much harder. The short period between the end of introductions and the beginning of a friendship is hell.

I just treat each further interaction with that person as another first meeting and hope the social part of my brain kicks in before I start rambling.

80% of country music covers that feature the artist just look like gay cowboys.

What a terrible mistake to make! Perhaps you should have assumed it was the correct orientation of the two words that are spelled exactly the same.

Your beef is with the English Language not me. How is it my fault that you misidentified yourself? Funnily enough, you still don't identify your actual political position. It's clear that the only political position you'd take is what gives you an advantage in the argument. Fucking debatebros lol.

I have, but thanks for the suggestion.

Reading so much theory that you confuse two different political ideologies. Sometimes I read so much theory that that I claim to be a monarchist when I really mean to say I'm an anti-monarchist. Obviously the other person should have understood what I meant. Your literally on a communication medium that allows you to plan and edit your comments. You have no excuse for making this grade school mistake.
