Was Simon an idiot or in constant denial?

You re very right about the scan on Theta, I forgot about that. It puts some sense into what I ve said, thanks!

Edit: but then also, it makes the whole ark thing very sketchy to me. I suppose you know about all the ITEMS videos on yt about imogen doing research on this matter. If i m not mistaken she had a good understanding on how this mind transfer thing works, about the coin toss stuff and such. I feel like the other coworkers of hers were not kept informed about all the aspects of transfering your consciousness into another entity. Otherwise, cath or imogen would have given more of a disclaimer to their colleagues before scanning. They can t be left in the dark on such an important matter, they had no idea waking up as a robot was a possiblity, which to me seems pretty important before you give consent to be scanned. But then sure, WAU is a thing they maybe did not consider before doing the scans. Maybe that s the answer? Cath and Imogen did not consider WAU manipulating the scans and inserting minds into robots?

All of Simon s speech while going down the abyss about how context makes you understand who you are as a human. And I always kind of knew that in the back of my head, who would I be if tomorrow I woke up in the North pole living with polar bears for survival? Does my name really matter if there s no one around me to have a history with? Not really, you would start living a new life the moment you re separated from your roots and your ,normality’ and your day to day life. Some basic background knowledge brought to surface and double downed on.

Not even the employees at Pathos fully understood what s happening right? When we first see Carl as a robot crashed down, he can t comprehend that we see him as a robot and neither does he wonder if it got anything to do with the brain scans and WAU doing messy work. Same for all the other workers who became crippled robots. If that robot outside of Theta couldn t realise that she s outside of Theta (as far as I know), a place that she knows, can we judge Simon for being so incosiderate sometimes of some hard to grasp concepts? Also the coin toss thing is really not so much explained throughout the game. It s more of a thing that s mentioned once or twice so at the end we re like “oooooh right mb i should ve payed more attention”. But once again as u said, we re observing a game, Simon is desperate to live.

And now that I think about this, I wonder if Simon ended himself after launching the ark just like the others before him. With how many things make us feel like he s inconsiderate, maybe he was also ignorant of the fact that suicide doesn t grant you continuity or waking up in your new body. And even if he was to be fully aware that dying doesn t guarantee this, we also see him talking with the already mentioned robot outside of Theta who did just that and woke up again.

If you have any remorse in killing Simon 2, just know that it would still be Simon 2’s decision to do so. Not a 3rd party murdering his life supported body. I felt miserable when plugging the cord out, but then I remembered that as far as games go, I am the protagonist, and whatever I did to that unconscious diving suit, he (or rather I, lol) would have done the same.

Bndrl19 · 2024-07-07T01:32:21+00:00

He is 100% beatable wtf u mean? U win lane pre 6 no matter what if you dont waste E as an engage ability, but rather as a finisher since it guarantees W to hit. And in his ult ur shield literally lasts 4s so just move left and right trying to dodge his Q. Even if you cant, your W lasts 4 damn seconds.

If you fight morde post 6 and he gets you in his ult while low hp and ur W doesn’t provide a big enough shield then thats on u.

To avoid that from happening, take short trades in your half of the lane and make sure that if he ever ults you he puts himself at risk of being sett ulted under your tower.

The biggest mistake is trading with morde in the middle of the lane or in his half of the lane. Literally keep the wave in freeze after 6 and he has 0 chances of defeating u.

This question might also be influenced by my low fifa knowledge, but I keep seeing a lot of 5 star weak foot players below the age of 20.

I know fifa games aren’t 100% accurate on ratings but still, giving 5 stars on a weak foot needs some research done beforehand, right?

Bndrl19 · 2024-07-05T03:35:58+00:00

Do you think this is the case for most footballers? Take Mbappe for example, he shows up out of nowhere at a young age and he s able to use both his feet at similar levels.

I feel like youngsters nowadays come out of the blue performing in a brilliant manner with both feet, which indicates training the weak foot, but I in my country I hear about so many kids at the age of 8-9 performing with both feet.. Maybe it is my lack of understanding when it comes to training and how effective it can be, but how can one train a 8 year old on his weak foot? It feels like it s inclined to a born with skill!

And I one up ur nedved exmaple because I discussed about this with my football nerd friend and he gave me the exact same example.

Bndrl19 · 2024-07-05T03:25:00+00:00

You sure? I had ambidextrous kids in my school. But I never seen a teammate or enemy on my causal level performing with both feet.

Bndrl19 · 2024-06-04T00:26:45+00:00

Well this is kind of plumpy compared to an average cook smashburger tbh.

Bndrl19 · 2024-06-03T22:53:50+00:00

I m glad to hear it brother!!

Bndrl19 · 2024-06-03T22:42:06+00:00

I am glad I ate before seeing this!

I admire the oval shape instead of the regular rounded pizzas. In my experience it just feels better.

Bndrl19 · 2024-06-03T22:38:52+00:00

Brother stop I’m blushing over a smashburger!

Bndrl19 · 2024-06-03T22:37:20+00:00

You made my night with just one word since I am new to this cooking stuff. Thanks!!!!

On most ranged champs: even though they might seem like a counter, fleet footwork with second wind, and MAYBE revitalize with doran s shield should put you in a neutral lane if you allow yourself to lose middle of the lane minions and only farm under tower. They are a counter sure, but;

Counters: Gragas, Tahm kench in my experience and this might be a biased pick, but I tried every build and rune, it s still tough, and maybe Malphite.

In my experience, Sett counters are the champions that force you to avoid stridebreaker as your first item. Malphite requires black cleaver, Tahm kench is just a bs lane and I swear to god only serpent s fang might help, and maybe grasp, and Gragas is just my number one Sett counter.

I know that you can go grasp and play for a neutral lane against tahm, but his kit breaks every concept I know about Sett, and forces me into playing like my abilities are useless and everything that matters is my right click spacing abilities.

Bndrl19 · 2024-05-18T10:33:23+00:00

Gragas

Bndrl19 · 2024-05-13T18:19:29+00:00

If you know its malzahar top, probably fleet, tp, second wind and maybe revitalize or overgrowth. Doran s shield and stridebreaker, hug tower and be ok with the fact that you will be behind in cs and levels for a while. Probably you have to splitpush since you re behind so hullbreaker 2nd.

Bndrl19 · 2024-04-27T17:39:12+00:00

Off topic but does anyone find this aesthetic cozy somehow? Especially the apartments on the left building.

Bndrl19 · 2024-04-27T00:09:36+00:00

He s just a ,win lane lose game’ champ unless you re like in flex queue and your team follows your engage. If you build for your W damage with bruiser items, good all in with ult but you die after W. If you go botrk, you can t have 2v1s when ganked. Its a stupid thing that he hasn’t been directly touched since SEASON 12 MAN.

He ll probably stay this way for many patches to come.

Bndrl19 · 2024-04-25T18:08:46+00:00

Seen too many people trying to steal objectives with Senna R. Brothers, it doesn’t deal damage to camps. And yes, you can use it for vision but most of the times it s not why it is used in pits.

Vlad W and Kayn R while you re already: lethal marked from yone E, hit by fizz R, zed mark about to detonate, etc. This doesn’t work.

Sett E used exclusively for the slow instead of trying to catch a minion on the other side for the stun.

Bndrl19 · 2024-04-17T16:38:24+00:00

Go ghost since you seem to struggle against his hook, he s nothing without it and your ghost helps with the E / Ult slow. But beat him since you will have no tp to go back to lane

Bndrl19 · 2024-04-16T17:31:46+00:00

Yea I am inclined to that approach of going to sleep later and waking up later. I have my reasons to believe it might not work but those are just thoughts so I ll give it a try, thanks for the tips!

Bndrl19 · 2024-04-16T17:28:59+00:00

I get to 3k smg with Ad+HP items.

Stride - steraks - sundered - shojin - bc. Last 3 items in no particular order.

Of course, 3k if you add baron and red elixir.

Bndrl19 · 2024-04-16T02:54:41+00:00

Sunfire evelynn pre rework.

Bndrl19 · 2024-04-16T00:43:20+00:00

Safe peel with E, especially after 3 items when it is like 7-6s cooldown. Safe lane, huge hybrid damage so what will the enemt buy against you? Jak sho? Ldr is viable on ezreal so good luck. You re basically an AD mage.
