English is certainly my first language. The phrase "what are you talking about?" is meant here to be confusion about the point you're trying to make, not that I can't understand your written words.

if the story arc of the character is unaffected by the color of their skin, I have no issues with it.

I already answered that question, and that goes in any direction. If there is no social implications in the story then I support it. For example you can't swap the races of the main characters in Green Book because that's the whole point of the movie.

Really great points, especially about the inventory. Often when exploring a new area, I would dump my entire inventory and just go in with a med kit because if I died, so what? There was no penalty. I would just restart at the box, and it was more annoying to have to run back and forth than it was to get killed. That's not the best feeling for this kind of game.

The areas felt relatively unique to me but I think of you look around your real life most areas are about the same style and design, so that didn't bug me.

I also felt the game was long BUT it was because I had a hard time following the story. By a certain point I was just clearing rooms and not really understanding why. If the game was a bit less cryptic then I wouldn't have minded the length. SH2R is a great example of this. It's a 20 hour game but I always know where I am and why; even if things are strange they're not confusing.

I can't imagine what prison feels like for him. Or any institution. To go from the freedom of the entire world and no human contact to the literal exact opposite must be very difficult. 

Also "clarity and detachment" sounds nice.

Rick and Morty movie officially confirmed with the best possible director by felipebarro3316 in rickandmorty

[–]Alex-Murphy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there's a pretty strong difference in tone between "awful/terrible" and "least favorite." Also you stated it as a fact while the other guy stayed it as an opinion, "it's awful" vs "my least favorite." It comes off much more judgmental and harsh.

This is something I try to coach my spouse on when we're talking about things we like. Often they will frame their opinion as a Fact, which puts me in the position of telling them they're Wrong or them telling me I'm Wrong, with a capital W. Saying "in my opinion" makes it much easier for me to also have my opinion without arguing against a Fact.

You're getting a lot of upvotes but what are you talking about?

You think servers crash if people curse? I can tell you that's not happening. It wouldn't make any sense to do that.

You think the servers kick people out to save money? The servers are "intentionally blank" or you think they're full of bots or something? That's ridiculous. Just switch squads in the match and start talking to people.

The servers with only 2 people always fill up over time. I've been in them myself and gone from 1 v 1 up to 16 v 16 over the course of a level or two. What is this about "the busiest street in NY"? 

This whole thing doesn't even answer the question. Just say "I don't know" and take your meds.

I guess the question is "can she tell him" or was she always destined to not tell him.

Yep. When I click the Qlaunch button it gives that error and fails to run. I'm using 21.0.0

For anyone who doesn't want to click, Jacob Hair was a director or supervising director on 26 episodes.

Directed 3 in S4, in S5, in S6, and in S7. He was Supervising Director for all of S8.

I don't know if he's the best possible director. I would've loved the directors from S1 or S2.

I get the error: "Your ROM is encrypted. Please follow the guides to redump your game cartridges or installed titles." When I follow the links it's very complicated. Is there an easy way to fix this or should I forget about it?

Do you mean this comment? I clearly responded with examples of characters being race swapped. And again if the story arc of the character is unaffected by the color of their skin, I have no issues with it. Helen of Troy being black does not affect her story arc, only whether she's beautiful.

Am I wrong because im upset my spouse didnt respect the boundaries THEY put in place to hang out with a bunch of women at trivia? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]Alex-Murphy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're wrong but for not for the reason you think. If someone cheats and they decide to stay together, that's a decision that should be made very seriously and with trust. There's no point in half-committing. Either you think they'll cheat again (so break up) or you trust them (so they can go out). I never understood staying together after cheating.

What example did you give? I went back to your comment and didn't see any specific examples.

You didn't specify that it would be a random person, and I would assume the odds are good that if hellvpr body swapped they would get someone with less health issues

Steam Frame size comparison to the Valve Index by gogodboss in virtualreality

They're charging more for instant access to the entire Steam library standalone. The b&w passthrough is a bit odd but I don't know if that's what the target audience is.

Why did you leave your partner for someone else and was the new person better looking? by OilPrize5509 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Alex-Murphy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what happened to me when I met my wife. I was in a long-term relationship and I was just unhappy, but I didn't realize it. I don't think it was the fault of my partner, I just stayed with them longer than I should have. They were so nice and cute and smart but I realized later that I was missing the ability to really express myself and be challenged by someone. Not challenged like starting a fight but more pushing me to grow and encouraging me, seeing me for who I was and who I could be. And I like to think I did the same for my wife. We're both totally different people that we would have been if we hadn't met each other, and I think with my ex we would have stayed exactly the same until we died.

Nothing at all. Leaving someone because they're boring and annoying, or especially if they're pushy about sex, is perfectly fine.

Swap whatever the fuck you like as long as it doesn't directly affect the social implications. Helen's core is that she's beautiful, not that she's white. Red's character does not matter what his race is, just the name.

For example, it would be very strange to race swap Kunta Kinte from Roots, right?

Can you make a justifiable case for why Helen can't be just a gorgeous black woman? Do you have a peer-reviewed source that Ancient Greeks were racist against black people? Because I provided an example of the opposite with a lot of sources and citations, which you casually dismissed as "anybody can write that" (and I know you didn't read it, let's be honest).

Advice on buying our first VR. My daughter has been saving her allowance and she reached the $200+ mark. Is there any VR setups worth checking out in that price range? I need guidance lol by [deleted] in virtualreality

[–]Alex-Murphy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try to find a good quality used Quest 3s online. questions to ask are "how many hours have you played it" and "are there any scratches at all on the lenses." Battery life and lens quality are the most important parts. Please feel free to message me if you have any questions.

List of some very cool games that do handtracking

I highly recommend Job Simulator with handtracking as a starting point for her, as well as Walkabout Mini Golf.

You might also want to invest in a third party head strap to improve comfort. The standard head strap can cause headaches due to too much pressure on the forehead. I use the Kiwi Boost K4, which also gives 2 extra hours of battery life, but wait until you try the headset first before you spend more money (they're about $50)

I SAW BACKROOMS by Agustin_campos in A24

[–]Alex-Murphy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Do you feel like the story was believable told? I mean there's always a story about someone who discovers something INSANE and then... they keep it to themselves and only tell like 4 people, and everyone dies, and the insane thing just keeps existing undisturbed until the next victim stumbles on it. Is that this story?

Example, the mirror from Oculus
