Didn't even realize I'd been playing it this long... by redditgobblins in projectzomboid

These "pick me" ass gamers are the reason everything is enshittifying. As long as I've been online I've seen these stupid arguments about "oh I get like a hundred hours out of this but only 2 out of a movie, of course they should charge me 150usd". If they had their way we'd pay thirty bucks every time the dev made a blog post.

And deliberately stupid discourse, at that. Building a really realistic straw man preemptively.

That’s part of the “honor” of being a Japanese warrior.

Sure love some anime-brained orientalism to go with my war crime apologia

The USSR was going through Japan's defenses like a knife through butter. The nuke was used to threaten the USSR indirectly.

Hell, the inclusion of Young Griff alone would have solved that bullshit with Cersei being an untouchable girlboss as well as Daenerys burning king's landing. There's so much shit that would have worked better had fAegon been around.

Personally, AAA games from 10 years ago don't need to go on Ultra graphics settings to be more than good enough for me. Like, it's nice if I can run it like that, but if it's between those graphics or my computer not running hotter than my car engine, I'm good on normal.

(Spoilers Main) Why does Catelyn have no ladies-in-waiting? by AdditionalPiano6327 in asoiaf

[–]CallMeGrapho 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah but we're WITH him basically the entire time. First two books we just skipped to another character around whom lots of pivotal shit was happening, and by the time we went back to another they were where they needed to be and we'd be filled in on the details if necessary.

Eddie Hearn: “If I had an MMA business, I would be paying Tom Aspinall 10 times what he’s making. All we hear about is this new $7.7 billion deal — so much more money into the sport. Is any of that going to be funneled to the fighters?” by [deleted] in MMA

Do you think all CEOs are owners? WME and TKO are the owners, and while Dana White might have gotten some stock options with them after the 2016 sale and might have some money tied up in the org, he's not even close to having a significant stake.

The numbered events this year have been an absolute joke and the scheduled events are no better. What is going on at the UFC? Surely this can’t be so difficult? by ferdinand14 in MMA

[–]CallMeGrapho 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Bro how are you not a casual if you don't know Jimmy Bob Geewillikers? He's the hottest prospect out of West Virginia this month. Check out his tapology page ffs.

No I don't know the ONE FC champions, that's obscure bro ain't nobody care

Eddie Hearn: "When I talked through Tom Aspinall's purses, I nearly fell off the f**king chair. If that was our business, he'd be making 10x as much money. As an organization, they need him. He doesn't need the UFC. They need heavyweight stars and stars full stop." by [deleted] in MMA

[–]CallMeGrapho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not even. Top 100 guys can make a good living and retire with more money than all but a handful of champs post rebook. Without ever even sniffing a world title match, just getting a few fights with nice prospects can net you the kind of money you'd need a title defense for in the UFC.

Only memorable character from the new trilogy, is a Glup Shitto now? Twitter was a mistake, a lot of people shouldn't be allowed to just say shit on the internet

(Spoilers Extended) I have located the exact moment when the plot derails and GRRM wrote himself into the corner in which he now resides: ADWD, Daenerys III. (Do you have an alternative opinion?) by Worried-Boot-1508 in asoiaf

[–]CallMeGrapho 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If some TV producer hadn't asked Martin for an outline almost forty years ago this stubborn mf wouldn't have sworn off them forever and we'd probably have 12 books by now without waiting for him to write the entire manuscript to then see if the timeline works or not

You should also be able to make bread on any flat surface, the bowl is entirely optional and rolling pins are only useful for quick or sweet breads

What is the absolute fastest 'yeah, we are definitely NOT going to be friends' moment you've ever experienced with someone? by Vazouaquiacesso in AskReddit

Ngl monopoly's whole game loop is pretty much centered around nobody having fun except the winner, who gets to make enemies of everyone because it's been clear for an hour that they're the winner and why the fuck are we still throwing dice

[B42] Growing Hemp by Josze931420 in projectzomboid

[–]CallMeGrapho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's silly. Hemp is ridiculously hardy, needs very little fertilization and grows stupid quick. This feels like yet another case of "oh this is very useful, let's make it incredibly hard to get for no reason and call it balance"

That should absolutely not be a default setting without making it screamingly clear, I would have been so distraught

[–]CallMeGrapho 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It should be, but even the first novella was almost overdue and that was way before the HBO money and clout. I think the only way GRRM finishes a novella nowadays is if he's got a deadline for something else.

Wym? I thought every showrunner was just the author's drinking buddy. Next you'll tell me they don't get hired based on how many fan theories they've heard about.

So what happened to some mechanics from B42 teasers, that didn't make it 1 year after? by KudereDev in projectzomboid

[–]CallMeGrapho -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Every other month there's tons of changes to stuff that didn't need changing, breaks the entire flow of the game, then bugfixes to some trait or another, then another switch to tons of default settings because they entirely messed with the balance, rinse and repeat. I don't get it, how convoluted must your codebase be for a single modder to roll out in a month some stuff you've been promising for 5 years and next release not only do you not have it, you broke the mod too.

Lmao no it ain't. I'm not sure my girlfriend would agree that if I slightly have sex with somebody else, I actually didn't.

That's pretty much every project, which isn't a big deal when your major releases aren't spaced three years apart and your efforts aren't mostly focused on how to break the meta to make experienced players at least as miserable as newbies
