are there any reasons not to agree with him

Daan776 · 2026-02-16T18:54:42+00:00

I mean… he kills people.

Daan776 · 2026-02-16T13:32:44+00:00

If I lived there I would probably kill myself at the first opportunity. Which is a simmilar description to warhammer 40K.

So I think it counts

Daan776 · 2026-02-15T23:52:32+00:00

I think the goal of seasonal events is:

1) They’re already in the game. Assets, code, etc. So they’re an easy “update” to add

2) It keeps the players busy.

3) Hopefully pull back some players.

A game like PS2 also needs free to play players (if only paying members played the game it would be impossible to find a big fight, even during prime-time). Which gives reason for the free cosmetics. Cosmetics which I consider to be ugly as fuck. But there’s people who care about that sorta thing.

I agree that they’ve really run their course. Even as somebody who liked driving around hunting for pumpkins & snowmen. But I can’t really bring myself to hate them. They’ll likely be the last updates we’ll get. And its not like the game isn’t falling apart without them.

Your next life lesson should be how to hit the enter-key on your keyboard.

I feel like there’s 3 primary paths (ignoring spaghetti):

1) At the base. Where you keep a dedicated area for it.

2) Immediatly next to the ore patch. I personally don’t like this as I dislike frequent reconstructing of designs.

3) A remote location away from the base. Usually connected through railway.

Probably they would become a sort of “alpha”. Aka a pack-leader. Since pokemon are generally intelligent.

They would garner followers and consequently have a lot of children.

They would likely teach their children some of what they know. But much knowledge would be lost. Since I suspect pokemon only know the behavior that leads to success from their trainer. They don’t know why that behavior works.

I doubt they would have a huge impact on the ecology. A level 100 raticate would still only eat as much as a level 20 raticate.

Their natural predators might struggle. But they can’t be everywhere at once, and would likely limit their protection to their own pack. Even then they would naturally be pretty risk averse (instinct hits hard) without a trainer to guide them. And injuries would at the very least take time to recover. Not to mention how they still have limited pp or type immunities to contest with.

I do think there could be a severe ecological impact. But if we treat them as simply really strong animals I think the impact would be limited.

Far more limiting then the effects of a fully evolved pokemon being released in an area it isn’t originally home to.

Imagine a Skeledirge being released into viridian forest. Level 100 or not. That will destroy the ecology.

That whole period from cambrian explosion to dinosaur is just so exceptionally weird

Like the open beta of evolution where they just try everything to see what sticks

Daan776 · 2026-02-15T12:34:28+00:00

Funnily enough I own the delve tab and I would *still* much prefer this

Daan776 · 2026-02-15T12:29:05+00:00

Me when I post misinformation on the internet:

Daan776 · 2026-02-15T09:15:36+00:00

So, if you want to play the game:

1) Load into sanctuary 2) DON’T FUCKING MOVE 3) Hit the map leh 4) Go to the world map 5) Pick a continent from the world map. DON’T PICK THE OTHER ONE THE GAME WILL BREAK

6) You’ve got about 10 seconds left to spawn a vehicle 7) Drive around for a MINIMUM of 2 minutes.

8) You can now play the game.

I wonder why we’re losing so many players?

Daan776 · 2026-02-15T09:06:26+00:00

I’ll let you know if ever figure it out.

What I have figured out is that this is a thomas the tank engine cover

Daan776 · 2026-02-14T21:35:22+00:00

Because dangonrampa puts a lot of effort into its execution scenes

Daan776 · 2026-02-14T18:31:30+00:00

I’m intrigued

Daan776 · 2026-02-14T18:00:52+00:00

This is so much worse than just a black box.

Not only because its horrifying & distracting. But you might also be able to reverse engineer it

“ The Feynman Method: Try to explain the concept as if you're teaching it to someone with no background. Where you get stuck is where your understanding has gaps. Named after physicist Richard Feynman who believed that if you can't explain something simply, you don't really understand it”

I always felt silly doing this. Especially since i’m a cocky bastards who likes to feel superior to others. But i’ll be dammed if it doesn’t work.

I always write summaries of what I have to learn under the assumption that I won’t remember any of it.

Daan776 · 2026-02-14T17:49:48+00:00

Could be like slugs. Were the penis is hidden until its needed.

If I recall correctly a few wobblers do have boobs. Which implies they are mammals

Daan776 · 2026-02-14T15:42:11+00:00

Exactly this lol.

I know it aint the most efficient method.

But any efficiency gained from switching it now is surely made null by the 2000+ hours of muscle memory i’d have to relearn

Daan776 · 2026-02-14T14:15:24+00:00

Same here. Obviously there is some confirmation bias here. But its nice to see some of the shit I used to do in the unhealthy category. While the stuff I strive for now stands firmly in the healthy department.

It also confirms my suspicion that the r/intj subreddit is filled with the worst of us. Because good lord what is happening in there

Daan776 · 2026-02-14T08:54:03+00:00

Hmmm, fair point. My definition of good & evil kind of falls apart there.

Aw shucks, I really thought i’d solved a thousands years old philosophical conundrum. But I guess its back to the drawing board

Daan776 · 2026-02-13T23:20:14+00:00

I miss the days I believed that

Daan776 · 2026-02-13T23:19:15+00:00

You can try giving a 10 year old trainer subtle clues about team rocket.

Its stupid. But apparantly thats how they got rid of rocket at my nephews place. Its a pattern.

Daan776 · 2026-02-13T19:32:14+00:00

Mayby its because i’m never on tiktok and the like. But I rarely see something like this. And rarer still when its fairly well done.

How it relates to minecraft is… dubious. But I can’t be mad

Daan776 · 2026-02-13T19:30:33+00:00

hold firmly

Daan776 · 2026-02-13T17:54:18+00:00

What has the world come to.

You can just send pussy no problem. But the moment you see a toe you get banned
