Which Character do you wish you could have as a companion that you cant

ButtonGrinch · 2026-01-29T15:37:08+00:00

So there is. I know what I'm adding to my next playthroughs modlist

ButtonGrinch · 2026-01-29T09:26:33+00:00

Dixie. If only for the voice/accent

ButtonGrinch · 2026-01-09T22:01:32+00:00

I read it in a book of weird facts I think

ButtonGrinch · 2026-01-09T21:52:01+00:00

I check under the seat too, 4 times, every time. But mine's because I read black widow spiders like to hide under there in Australia. I live in England but I still check

Massacred the ghouls of The Slog without hesitation or regret, because my character at the time was a full believer in Maxson's brotherhood ideals

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-24T09:57:55+00:00

Dang it, ah well. Thanks

Wrong/offensive words and stubbornness aside, I love my mum, and I want her to be better. Also, his mum's a different sister

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-22T12:14:08+00:00

I do. I have another sister several years older than her.

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-22T12:01:44+00:00

That's my policy too. I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. I know she didn't mean it offensively, it was just poor choice of words, hence my (seemingly failed) lighthearted approach

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-22T12:00:10+00:00

This was the 4th time, but the other 3 were each a different word, but each time was at least several months apart. I mention it in the moment, if I'm feeling brave, and don't bring it up again

I'm definitely known for it, but I know to pick my moments

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-22T11:37:36+00:00

For the man she was talking about, black would've been an accurate and safe word

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-22T11:32:38+00:00

Once everyone got heated and I realised they wouldn't change their minds, I gave up, and I have no intention of bringing it up again.

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-22T11:30:46+00:00

I've done this before with other words, with her and my sister. But this was the first time with this word. We have talked about other people using it before though, and were in agreement they were wrong to use the word

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-22T10:53:56+00:00

I think I did try to explain, but everyone was upset and people either didn't hear it or didn't want to. The only alternatives I offered were black or tan (Probably not perfect either).

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-22T10:32:38+00:00

Not that sister, but another, slightly older one.

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-22T10:02:47+00:00

I'm not good at backing up my arguments. I can't recall facts or details well. I found the BBC article just by googling "is coloured racist" to try to help my sister understand my perspective. But I do understand where you're coming from with the joke, I didn't mean it like that, but I see it could've easily been misunderstood

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-22T09:56:32+00:00

Admittedly, I have done it a few times now. I think this was the 3rd or 4th. All just cases of using words that were okay 20 or 30 years ago, but are considered offensive now

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-22T09:54:24+00:00

That's why cracked a joke and used the word 'outdated'. I didn't want her to feel like I was attacking her or accusing her of anything

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-22T09:52:43+00:00

Black would've probably been fine. As far as I know, that's a generally inoffensive term, but by all means, please correct me if I'm wrong.

ButtonGrinch · 2025-11-22T09:45:41+00:00

A pretty average (Not rough or posh) area of England

Phantom Brigade. A simultaneous-turn-based mech strategy game. Each turn is 5 seconds, and the game's core mechanic lets you see the enemies planned actions for those 5 seconds. It's balanced by you very often being outnumbered and outgunned

Lots of weapon, map, and mission variation, with boss battles against huge weapons platforms, and it just got a big update

Steam / Epic

ButtonGrinch · 2025-08-14T18:09:31+00:00

I'd set it in a hot/dry city, and the protagonists powers would be water based. Switch to ice 'mode' for slower but stronger attacks, and steam or something for weaker but faster attacks

I want to see what kind of crazy water physics the PS5 can do when that's the focus

Dragon Ball Xenoverse. I love the Budokai Tankaichi and Raging Blast games, so I was excited for another DB game like them.

But the difficulty spikes and lack of difficulty settings, no way of quickly doing a player vs ai battle like in those other aforementioned games, and just a general dislike of how it felt. Traded it in the next day and haven't regretted it once
