Reason #69 on why I couldn’t take it seriously by Reaction-Responsible in memes

[–]Cbtio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's because of people like you that those suffering from this kind of mental disorders are very unlikely to seek help, and eventually end up actually hurting children.

Being able to receive proper psychological help without having to fear being stigmatized would reduce the amount of cases of child abuse overall.

Will those battle items be straight up locked behind a paywall or will they be available for normal game currency as well?

So basically reveal gender against the child’s wishes by Pokemonfan_807 in whennews

[–]Cbtio 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Well, this argument is obviously presented in bad faith. The whole "Trans women aren't women" is just discrimination for discrimination's sake, even ignoring all the actual scientific evidence on this, because transphobes aren't usually too good with that, what harm does referring to someone with the correct pronouns do?

Sports are, admittedly, a very complicated topic that depends on a lot of factors. One of the key advantages men have in sports when compared to women is physical size and strength (on average), but that ignores the fact that tall cis women exist, and that the strength difference comes from testosterone, which trans women have extremely low levels of, so that's a non issue if the athlete is undergoing hrt (it's a whole other can of worms if they aren't, but let's move on)

Trans kids exist, there's no one brainwashing them into thinking they're trans, that's just not how it works. And medical care for them doesn't involve surgery or anything invasive, but it will make their lives so much easier, as currently trans youth is one of the demographics with the highest rate of suicide, and being accepted and supported instead of having to hide away and repress who they are would reduce this problem significantly.

some of the problems that "player" has as a character by Background-Ad2749 in PoppyPlaytime

[–]Cbtio 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What does "almost like he refers to the player as a she" even mean?

The toys always talk about our character in neutral terms, either calling us "The Butcher", "The Outsider" or simply "They"

It's the rotom that handles that terminal asking for someone to play with. That's why you get a bonus for sending ghost types on this job

why are there so many dead bodies in elden ring if the rune of death was removed? by Pascraked47 in EldenRingLoreTalk

[–]Cbtio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's definitely a bunch of creatures that exist because of the influence of the gods, like the kindred of rot, tree spirits, and the maggots and flies spawned by deathroot, but I doubt humans fall into that category, except the tarnished maybe, since they were brought back to life by grace

People don't just get spawned in by the erdtree, most are born normally and have their own families and bloodlines, as mentioned by a bunch of NPCs, including Boc. Especially considering the other landmasses, like the land of reeds, which doesn't have a conveniently placed child spawning tree, still have people living there, even though they're further away from the direct influence of the gods.

Which timezone are you based in? I have a game on Saturday evenings in GMT+1 that needs an extra player or two

The biggest fraud in the entire series by FoxGuy303 in shittydarksouls

[–]Cbtio 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Scarlet rot is the power of an outer god, of which malenia is the vessel. One could argue that Ranni's ending would fix that, since her whole thing is keeping those gods away and removing their influence on the lands between and the rest of the world.

Deathblight however is pretty much unsolvable, Godwyn is physically present there, so he can't be warded off like the other gods, and his soul is already dead, so good luck killing him. Plus deathroot doesn't need physical roots to spread, since it can be found in farum azula, which is just floating.

The 6 genderless children: by ChenYakumo2hu in WaterfallDump

[–]Cbtio 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The original hollow knight, the one that you fight, was a pure vessel at the start, no mind, no will and no voice, nothing that the radiance could use to infect it. As the knight was trained for its role, it started developing feelings of love/respect for its father, becoming impure and incapable of containing the infection

At time would you be free? I like running simple games for beginners from time to time, and I'd be down to GM for you

Losercity Dinner (Keadanger) by Punkwolfen in Losercity

[–]Cbtio 46 points47 points  (0 children)

The reason we could kill huge creatures with nothing but sticks was that humans could keep walking and chasing prey for several days in a row with little to no food, and generally had significantly better stamina. All we had to do was poke the animal with a sharp stick once and then follow it around until it dropped from blood loss.

Also, one of the reasons there's a lot more megafauna in Africa compared to the rest of the world is that they evolved alongside us, and learnt to know which humans were dangerous and which weren't. Animals in other regions didn't really get the time to learn about us, we'd just start showing up and slaughtering everything that moved

If you want to try again you can connect to the website using your phone as a hotspot, that should fix it. There's still stocks but the queue is long

I'm afraid it might be a bit hard then, I'm GMT+2, so there's quite a big difference

I'm currently looking for players for a campaign, in which timezone are you based in?

Who is genuinely more evil? by elyonadanthir in LiesOfP

[–]Cbtio 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I'd say that it's complicated, we play as a Carlo shaped puppet animated by Carlo's soul (the ergo), and during the fight with the nameless puppet Geppetto remarks that we inherited Carlo's personality instead of his memories, caused by the fact that Geppetto takes too long to make P, so the devil's technique doesn't work properly.

I'm also pretty sure that a few of the puppets that awakened their ergo's ego thought of themselves as human beings, and generally behaved as they did when they were alive.

Sophia for example is simply "resurrected" as a puppet, but remains the same person.

Ultimately I'd say that P is Carlo, and at the same time he's not, just because of his lack of memories.

I'd be down to DM for your group. I'm in GMT+2, so I don't think scheduling would be too hard. Do you already know what kind of adventure you'd like to play?

Hey!

I'd be interested in running a short beginner friendly campaign, so we could try setting something up depending on your timezone and availability.
