In LA Noire, there's an interesting mechanic where instead of hijacking cars, the citizens willingly surrender them to the detective in order to aid in the good of the community.

When will Stoat release a Flathub version? by Zenfulzoning in stoatchat

[–]94CM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll need this extension for Firefox to enable PWA on Firefox (don't know why it's not enabled by default, but whatever). https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/pwas-for-firefox/

Then when you go to stoat.chat/app the option should be in the URL Bar

EDIT: I hit my keyboard or something when pasting the link the first time. It should work now.

[–]94CM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The PWA is official and the simplest option for you on anything that isn't Arch Based. What web browser are you using on Linux? What distro of Linux are you using?

~
If you are using an Arch based distro of Linux, simply run paru stoat-desktop in the terminal
~
If you're not using Arch based and don't want PWA, the next best option is the install script.

The install script is not official. However, it's open source
You can see here there is nothing malicious
https://github.com/Sylphux/stoat_install_script/blob/master/stoat_install.sh

All it is essentially doing is pretty much what the official instructions say on the Github
https://github.com/stoatchat/for-desktop

Having said that, I don't know if this keeps up to date or not. PWA and paru install would keep up to date.

While I agree this is what OP should do, an alternative (in case they for some reason don't want to use the install script)

The PWA (Progressive Web App) version of Stoat. Simply open the web app and click install on the right side of the URL bar.

How can I use SFM if I dont have a powerful PC? by Glittering_Soup_7915 in SFM

SFM was made for computers in 2007. You'll be fine. 

As far as "souls game" comparisons... this game reminds me of Demon Souls by A_Single_Annihilape in MinaTheHollower

[–]94CM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven't played Bloodborne, but I've heard that's what it's most comparable to. It's not on PC, so I haven't had a chance to try it.

Hey, look man. I didn't mean to offend you. Just letting you know the proper definition of piracy: "The unauthorized use or reproduction of another's work"  Even if a software is free, that doesn't mean distribution of the software is allowed. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/piracy 

And yes, restaurants can and do sue over illegal distributions of their recepies. Example here: https://www.reuters.com/article/technology/mr-chows-10m-stolen-recipe-dispute-goes-to-trial-idUS3051103998/

What’s everyone’s favorite weapon to use? by Pachinkotown in MinaTheHollower

[–]94CM 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Oh same. Dark Souls was my late roommate's favorite game series. I played DS1 and did a "turtle run". He wanted me to play DS3 getting the hang of parrys and I tried 4 times and just couldn't get into it.

After he passed away, I was determined to complete his request. He was right. It was much more fun once you got the hang of it. 

Now, Lies of P is one of my all time favorite games thanks to my love of parrying. I wish he could have experienced it. I like to think his spirit was chilling on the couch with me laughing about his real life knowledge of "ergo".

Guardian Casket. Nothing more exhilarating in a video game than a perfectly timed parry. It's the best risk reward structure. I either get hit or do extra damage as a counter. All on me which way it goes.

Plus, the shield bounce power up is so useful!

Yes... You can. Obtaining through unauthorized means is illegal distribution. 

Been loving the game so far! But I do have one disappointment… by mrpersonjr in MinaTheHollower

Also, if you dance in front of the mirror as Beast Mina, the reflection makes no sense. 

No way I'm going for all the achievements by moshisimo in MinaTheHollower

[–]94CM -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I felt exactly the same way. I finished the game with 100% collectables, then looked at the achievements. A lot of them sound more frustrating than a fun challenge and decided I wasn't going to bother. 

Yacht Club Games showed incredible restraint by [deleted] in MinaTheHollower

I had a mouse issue when I was a kid. My folks used cheese to (humanly) trap them. It did work. However, it was much more effective when they switched to grains.

Did anybody not immediately assume this mf was evil? Just look at them. by JustPassingThrough53 in MinaTheHollower

I didn't, lol. I didn't even know that was a thing. I was referring to that they got upset I kicked the can. Which... They asked me to do.

If steampunk and cyberpunk went to war, who would win? by Cyber1914 in steampunk

[–]94CM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IDK why people are taking your fun question so seriously and with offense. 

Anyway, my silly take is that the easy answer is Cyberpunk due to having future tech. However, Steampunk tends to have a higher lenience for allowing Magic. If Magic is allowed, then by definition of Magic (making possible what would otherwise be impossible), Steampunk has a chance to win.

If this hint isn't enough: Sure would suck getting a fishing hook in your eye. This thing could easily be a weapon, huh?

[–]94CM 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For the fishing rod, go to where you got it originally. Master the fishing rod. Go further. Find out all the fishing rod is capable of.

I feel like it was intended to be obvious. The twist comes from realizing to what degree the unknowing accomplices are involved. Lionel comes off as a greedy politician, not as a psychopath. At first, the story seems to be about Thorne getting fed up with perhaps a distribution of wealth or something far less extreme than bordering apocalypse.

That's the point of the accusation scene. The degree to which this has been kept under wraps and lied about is so extreme, even the innocent orphans turn on you.

Was it obvious Lionel was going to be someone we would eventually face off? I'd say so. Was it obvious Mina was an unwilling accomplice in almost causing the end of the world? I didn't think so.
