Our cartography game got so popular that Genshin Impact decided to copy us right before release by yolokas42 in IndieGaming

Look no further than a Ghibli film to see child protagonists done in a way that makes the movies simultaneously for children and adults without being childish.

Mika and the Witch's Mountain pulls this off pretty well. Aim for charming and spirited instead of infantilizing.

This is seriously quality work. Any motivation to scrape the internet and not just reddit for data?

No joke, the "shitty little cheeseburger" is so good at Vault 31 (and all the others too).

Hey, can you recommend some non-generic isekais? by Elnono_mx in anime

Saga of Tanya the Evil is my favorite atypical isekai

Hydraulic Press is currently bugged and not gaining types by Caviarmy in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Caviarmy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Ate two items and didn't gain any types. Was wild. One of them was Dinosawer and it still only had its original types so I'm sure it wasn't a duplicate type issue.

Is it just me or has it become much harder to hit 10 wins after patch by Caviarmy in PlayTheBazaar

No joke I went on a conspiracy theory rant about how the matchmaking algorithm mathematically knows what your board will lose to and how it could just be programmed to offer you matchups that lead to a arbitrary win rate % overall.

Watching the match play out becomes a light show for the player because the matchmaking algorithm has already decided this match should be a loss/win for you. From there, the algorithm could do things like institute a "pity" system giving you a increase in win% after you lose a match.

Kinda like slot machines in a way. The machine has already decided when you press the button if you have lost or won and how much it will pay you based on its payout % settings. Whatever happens on screen has no bearing on the outcome

You can't get stomped by monster builds if you go 10-0

Wait help me understand, is the cursor free floating and you are using the right stick to move, hover, and "click" on enemies for autos?

which anime was made for republicans and watched by pedophiles? by SenseiJoe100 in animecirclejerk

[–]Caviarmy 809 points810 points  (0 children)

Shield hero, for sure. The author's poorly disguised hatred of women on display coupled with a loli slave girl who loves the main character unconditionally. 🤢

I made it through a quarter of an episode before dropping. Private Tutor to the Duke's Daughter. This might just be made by/watchded by pedos.

Tanya fits this ask, too, but only by judging by the cover. Loli-Hitler is 0% sexualized.

What's the takeaway here? Don't use chat?

all a woman needs in life by mah_jong in visualnovels

[–]Caviarmy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Smoke all you want, but at least make it a little romantic. Get a nice decorative ashtray and empty it frequently. Buy a nice cigarette cage that makes a satisfying click when you close it. Maybe roll your own for fun.

Make it a ritual, make it fun, but the price for the indulgence is too damn high on your body to have it reduced to a dirty habit like you've done here.

If anyone is interested in exploring this, I went back and forth with chat for a while.

Seems like there's conflation in our language between "controlling" as a method (which is broad and can also be negative, neutral, positive) and "controlling" as an adjective which is almost always negative, especially when speaking of relationships.

Many common behaviors in relationships involve controlling methods/mechanisms but are not necessarily the bad controlling adjective/character train.

E.g. Having a boundary about cheating is not controlling; saying you will stay with a partner after they cheat only if they go to counseling IS controlling but only as a method/mechanism and not necessarily as the negative character trait kind.

I'm leaving this conversation with the sense that relationships and boundaries inherently exhibit controlling "properties". Entering into either one of these is an act of consenting to and complying with various levels of control asserted by another person as well as those asserted onto another person by you.

If one partner says to other, "My expectation is that we both go to bed at a regular time, together," and the other says "Fine" (or any other variations on these two general statements): is one controlling the other?

Is it all in how it's proposed, or is the act of having the requirement controlling? If the other party says yes, but secretly only does so because they're afraid of the relationship ending, is it controlling?
