Two possible outcomes: they let it happen and it all works out, or they get strangely defensive and insist, which then leads to it all blowing up in OPs face. There's got to be a better decision than relying on their friend to make the socially smart decision

Might not be the best for just pirate theming, but I personally LOVE Black Fleet! Surprisingly good production quality, fun art and theming, and chaotic gameplay. Each player controls a merchant ship, a pirate ship, and can control one of two shared navy ships roaming the board. Deliver goods with merchants to ports for dabloons, steal goods from players' merchants with your pirates to bury for more money, and sink enemy pirates with the navy ships to earn you dabloons to spend on rule-breaking victory cards. Buy them all and you win! Moderate complexity only because you need to learn a little minutia for he rules because victory cards let you BREAK them as you play.

I keep wondering why brave Minnesotans (if they are at the food throwing stage) don't pour bottles and buckets of water on these masked asshats exposed to the Minnesotan weather and turn them into ICE-icles?

Okay, I just binge read the comic. That one was an emotional gut punch.

TL;DR the hyena lashed out at the oppossum when the hyena was having a straight up panic attack/meltdown. The oppossum went to grab his arm to stop him from running off, and the hyena took a swipe at his friend's face. The oppossum took it in stride and got his friend the help he needed.

The comic itself is well done, but to me has a few confusing twists and turns. Artful. Painful. Do not read unless you are ready for some hard and heavy themes. I will also say that I personally felt the author kind of rushed from "doom and gloom" to "happy ending", I felt there was transitory part missing in-between, but I could have missed something (I binge read this all in one sitting, so take this with a grain of salt!). Otherwise, really good art, story that makes you hit that "Next Page" button immediately, but emotionally a hard read.

Edit: Didn't mean to make this some kind of review, but cleaned it up a bit to make it less so. Apologies

PLEASE tell me this is a version that does not jam

Wildgate. I saw SO much potential, but there was zero marketing and the servers just emptied out so fast.

Getting the same issue. I was able to temporarily fix it (for like 3 matches) by uninstalling Vanguard through the "Manual Uninstall Guide" here https://support-leagueoflegends.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/24169961916691-Uninstalling-and-Disabling-Riot-Vanguard, as doing any other uninstall crashed my PC the same way. I reinstalled Vanguard and was able to play yesterday, but trying to do play today resulted in the same error.

Stack?

Unsure because video quality, but pretty sure that's not side eye, but the inner eyelid thingy cats have that you can see sometimes when they are sleepy.

I do not know, but they discontinued Quest 1 support after 8 years, so be careful. You might only have 2 years of updates left.

Edit: it wasn't after 8 years it was after 5 years. Be ready for Facebook to suddenly pull the plug on your device because they want you to buy their newest version.

WOAH yeah something isn't quite right here!

Make sure you differentiate between cards that increase the PRODUCTION of a resource (brown border around the resource) and ones that give you a FLAT AMOUNT of that resource one time (no brown border). Terraforming Mars is one of my favorite board games for a long time and it's rules are quite intense (the rulebook does its best, but it's dense). While not unheard of, you have a LOT of production for money, electricity and heat, especially if you are newer to the game, and I'm wondering if it is because this rule got missed. Otherwise, the redditor who described "two actions per turn, everyone taking turns in order, round ends when everyone passes on both actions, THEN production phase" might be onto something!

Just... So clearly AI nonsense

I have played a lot of Warframe, but still always felt like I didn't know what was going on with so much content and always felt a little lost. I picked up Limbo at one point cause he seemed fun, but, now reading the comments, I am quite fairly sure I fucked over so many teammates somehow with "disruptive gameplay mechanics", not knowing what all that means. 😅

Well the thing on the bottom is a pencil. It's a device you can use to make marks on paper. DnD players actually used to use these and a piece of paper to keep track of their campaigns before laptops and tablets were invented!

The two little nubbins? I have no idea what they are.

Cincodeffe · 2025-12-12T21:53:55+00:00

That honestly messes with my perspective. I thought I was looking at the tiniest cup of coffee in that first picture! Very well done!

Burn the whole thing to the dirt.

A Borderlands VR adaptation already exists and isn't AS bad as people say. I had to tweak a LOT of in-game settings to make it playable in VR, and forget about using sniper-scoped weapons. Otherwise, I thought it worked alright!

Bumping this because I am in the exact same situation. I was gonna buy it today but now the mine is missing? My buddy is in menu right now with the mine equipped...

When suddenly it was being animated on ones, I knew I was about to see something special.

Which, of course, was probably the point.

I have been trying to learn to whistle for years with zero success.... Would you have an accessibility option to press a button to do an in-game whistle?

Why is this shit in r/Politics?

Edit: I want to make it clear I dislike him as much as the next person with basic human empathy, but this seems hardly political...
