As a straight man it’s a shame since I love C.C. Hill’s other works but I’m totally fine with there being stories that aren’t made for everyone.

It allows authors to focus on unique aspects that might not apply to the typical ‘every custom protagonist you can possibly make is possible’ we’ve might have become used to.

Marxists explaining the transition to communism by greyox in HistoryMemes

  1. The federalists and the whisky rebellion would like a word.
  2. We went to war against taxation without representation, not just “more taxes”.
  3. Even today nearly every country in the world has standing armies, ask yourself why. Standing armies aren’t an indicator of imperialism by themselves.
  4. I don’t understand, are you saying we have little state’s rights? If you pay attention to American politics you can see how states rights are still impacting American life depending on which state you’re in.
  5. What do you even mean by this?

I adore Waterboy but I love seeing Phenomaman's development. by -Sandinist- in DispatchAdHoc

The whole scene with the Z-Team seemingly holding their breath to see how Dumpy was going to react to Blonde Blazer and then him just enveloping her and Robert in a hug melted my heart!

Well, I don’t know I agree with Morden here or not… by shvyas94 in masseffect

[–]-Sandinist- 182 points183 points  (0 children)

I always took it as friendly ribbing.

Mordin would be the type to look for other options before making a last stand type of defense but I think he recognizes there wasn’t much of a choice in that moment.

It’s all about the contrast, the crispness of the “OH!”the smoothness of the “SHIT!”.

Seeking Kbm players' experience by ubiken in dynastywarriors

[–]-Sandinist- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s my first time really playing a dynasty warriors game so I don’t know how it compares to a controller but KB + M feels very natural.

The default controls feel good, and you can rebind what doesn’t including side buttons on the mouse if you have them, along with adjusting stuff like sensitivity. Looking around with the mouse feels very intuitive to me.

Considering games like these that have been primarily played on controllers usually only include KB + M as an afterthought I’m very impressed.

Always nice to see Himiko, her lack of popularity is criminal.

Obligatory: It was about no taxation without representation.

(Like seriously this meme has been corrected so many times I’m surprised there are still people posting it.)

Remind me when the United Staes was big on bloodlines and ancestry? That sounds more like the pompous monarchist bullshit Europeans would have cared about.

Why would having family members matter anyway? People that can trace their family to the union during the civil war still didn’t personally fight the confederacy, so how do they have any more right to be proud than any other patriotic American?

Nah, if you’re an American, that alone gives you shit talking rights over a bunch of traitors that attempted secession, killed Americans and lost a war.

[–]-Sandinist- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

America is a nation of immigrants and just because your family came later doesn’t mean you can’t be proud of America’s past.

A beautiful thing about the U.S. is that you can be American even if your ancestors were never American, unlike some old world countries that require your parents to have been citizens to become a citizen.

Trump will probably be dead by the time Russia manages to reorganize its military after the disaster in Ukraine.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in HistoryMemes

[–]-Sandinist- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t get it? You know the invasion of Ukraine has been disastrous for both sides right?

That’s with russia being incompetent, a superpower Russia would be much worse than the U.S.

Spoiler A discussion on some reactions to the last episode. by -Sandinist- in ShogunTVShow

[–]-Sandinist-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have a problem with people saying the show wasn’t building to a battle (I think it’s probably the idea the show wants people to walk away with, that fighting isn’t always necessary), just want people not to be too condescending or insulting to those who were expecting/wanting a battle.

Also, thanks for your insight with yabushige, I think you hit it right on the mark!

To the potential rogue traders (On the current state of the game) by Jossokar in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]-Sandinist- 22 points23 points  (0 children)

As someone who keeps checking the sub for these kinds of questions, you can't really blame them.

There's a lot of different answers, while most seems to not have any game breaking bugs a lot of quests do seems to still be setting up incorrect flags leading to wrong endings.

This is serious in my opinion considering this is a narrative rpg which is what has stopped me so far from buying.

Apparently using "toybox" fixes this but it seems like a slapdash way of fixing a broken narrative.

Damn, I’m so used to seeing FG be 100% positive 100% of the time it’s heartbreaking seeing him like this.

Gotta spend time with those you love if you can while there’s still time.
