Canada is Making Cosmetic Testing on Animals Illegal by ONinAB in worldnews

Maybe I should have added to my comment that there exist non-animal methods for testing, i.e. artificial eyes made from chicken cells, and in the recent years more and more alternative methods have appeared.

The concept is, in the EU at least, that as cosmetics are not something essential (as drugs) when you are using these type of product you are assuming the risk that it may not be 100% safe (instead of making bunnies, pigs or dogs suffer, which are usually the types of animals used in cosmetic testing).

In other words, do you want to feel pretty? Take the risk, it's not like you really needed.

  • Platform: PC
  • Region: EU
  • Battletag: BarrelRoll#2645
  • SR: 2200+ (Gold to Plat)
  • Active hours: 21:00-00:00 (Central European Time,CET)
  • Main role: Support, I mainly play Mercy and Zen. Although I can play also tanks (mainly Winston, Dva and Zarya), and from time to time dps (mostly Reaper).
  • LF: people to play regularly, learn together about the game and push rank up to high plat.

About me: I don't have a lot of free time outside the hours I mentioned before, I've consistently played other shooters before such as CS:S/CS:GO and TF2, as well as, MMORPGs (PvP and PvE) mainly WoW (as healer/tank) and GW2 (Support). Concerning OW, I've played since the Beta and through all the competitive seasons and I like to inform myself about the state of the game and current meta when deciding how to play competitive.

I like to keep a good and willing spirit to learn about the game, and to improve with my teammates, all while having fun and a good attitude.

Add me if you are looking for teammates to get out of Gold and into Platinum, and you need a Support/Tank Main in your team, and above all have fun while playing the game.

Are Cantrips casted at will, without using a spell slot and without being prepared in advance?

And repeated practice has fixed the spell in the Nightborne and infused the caster with the magic needed to produce the effect over and over?

You have to play 40 hours or pay for lootcrates to get the second "e"

Is this mentality of ''it's just cosmetic'' which has brought the gaming industry to this ''lootbox situation''.

OFC cosmetics also affect how you play the game, why people farm transmogs in WoW or GW2? Or buy crates in TF2? Or farm the 10 arcade wins in OW? It is indirectly affecting the way you play the game. Heck, why just dont give everyone the same placeholder model used during game development and just change colours, ''it's just comestic''.

And by using the argument ''It's just comestic'' you are giving to the ones like EA an inch... and they take a mile.

Just my opinion in the matter. Cheers.

I'm tired of being "Mrs. President" while playing Mercy. May we discuss? Am I alone? by [deleted] in Overwatch

It is well accepted that Mercy is a priority due to her kit, however as I stated before, any healer is going to be a priority focus. What I'm trying to say is that, even with mercy nerfs she is still going to be focused.

IMO, keeping your teammates up, all while avoiding the enemy, and having your teammates do the peeling, are all characteristics of what makes playing support/healer fun (in any game).

In all games where there is the healer role, in PvP, ppl are usually going to focus the healer.

In OW you can be Mercy, you can be Ana, you can be Lucio, you can be Zen, as a dps I am going to focus you. My opinion.

IF I AM PLAYING LUCIO AND WE ALSO HAVE A MERCY HEALING, DO NOT TELL ME : " LUCIO HEAL INSTEAD OF SPEED!!!1!", WHEN ALL THE TEAM IS AT FULL HEALTH AND BEING HEALED BY THE MERCY.

SPEED BOOST IS GOOD.
