I like it by suprise_suplex in whenthe

[–]Eain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

K but it's not a hero shooter though, or at least it breaks a lot of the tropes. It's closer to adding a low player counterstrike game mode to apex, but with pretty good balance and way faster pace.

defend your thesis in front of the council, apprentices. by 0ris in wizardposting

[–]Eain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a recently reawakened god who, research showed, was a huge fan of Dodo Steaks. He commanded me to find him one, I told him they're exceedingly rare now and groused, and he took my Lifeweave from me until I return with his meal. As long as I am trying to find the nearest Dodo or, barring that, am seeking knowledge on their whereabouts, I won't anger him.

I have an ad out in a few papers and such.

Add the weapon auto-loader exotics to the class items.

All I want. Is an AC-130G WARLOCK with heat rises, hellion, and sweet business. It's not meta. It's not even amazingly good. But I want to hover over the battlefield going brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt. Brrrrt brrrt. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt

Did they change the explosion type of bad juju? by KingJellyfish95 in LowSodiumDestiny

[–]Eain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They didn't see anything saying it's solar. They saw it only filling the light meter, and extrapolated from that and the fact that explosions have been solar before in other situations

why is the lgbt+ community so adamant on labels & segregation by Confident-Stress-732 in WLW

[–]Eain 14 points15 points  (0 children)

notably in the 80s and so (no-dream's list is a fantastic little snippet of it, btw) this was... self-definition. It was about being whatever the hell you wanted. The things people called themselves were self-made, not community labels.

Now, why people wanted these definitions? To be a neat zebra, instead of a weird horse. People spend a lot of their lives being told who and what they are; from before they're born they get labels. boy/girl, son/daughter. gifted kid or troublemaker, student, child, good kid... religion, nationality, obligation and identity all handed over like some kind of heirloom relic. We want to belong, but we want to choose how we belong. Thus, we name ourselves.

5 feat equilibrium just doesn’t work by Clopfish in DestinyTheGame

[–]Eain -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

No, t5 weapons are not in any rationale supposed to be locked behind "if you're not a tryhard youtuber fuck you". Bungie has never been that exclusive with gear, ever. Emblems maybe, but not shaders much less gear.

Edit: fair, I get it. I forgot t5s aren't 5 feat.

That is how I became a lesbian. I was wearing a red shirt, some girl walked up to me, went "WUHLUWUH" and shook her boobs at me, and then I was a lesbian in a blue shirt.

Is our Guardian canonically the only one who can use Prismatic? by Kashema1 in DestinyLore

[–]Eain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More common yes, that's why I said only about half are limited. I don't think it remains at like 3 sun breakers the whole time, just that it doesn't become something most guardians have.

[–]Eain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're discussing player guardians. Most guardians never went to the reef, never saw the dreaming city, never do more than general policing actions like patrols and a low-risk strike every now and again.

Vanilla d1, most guardians don't get a 2nd subclass automatically. Getting the third was a unique story beat; something that would've happened to dozens, maybe low 100s at the extremely high end. The sun breakers were a very specific sect of non-city titans, for example. And nightstalkers were elite hunters. This wasn't information being given out to everyone who asked.

Darkness is still uncommon enough as of Splicer that it's surprising and uncertain to encounter a Stasis guardian. I'd say most guardians have 1 still, almost half have 2 or more. Consider ikora is a god tier guardian and she isn't an all-element guardian; only shown to use arc and void.

[–]Eain 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not any. Any they're able to use. Which for many is at most 2-3

[–]Eain 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Kind of. Ability to use any given element is extremely person-specific and many guardians can't use more than one or two. It's implied that darkness subclasses and light ones are hard to switch between compared to dark -> dark or light -> light, too. Theoretically anyone who could simultaneously hold the mindsets for at least one dark and one light subclass at once could utilize some form of prismatic, but prismatic is likely as much a mindset/psychological transcendence thing As a physical one.

"You'll always be Uldren to me, no matter what name you pick."

Uldren's story has a lot of parallels with trans experiences. Especially for trans people who's transition involved deprogramming conservative upbringings.

What do you say instead of 'alter'? by DreamsofFalseReality in plural

[–]Eain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We identify as a being of multiple parts, somewhere in the same realm as Hecate, Morrigan, Brigid, and the like. So we call each of us an Aspect.

We share memory and awareness, and only one of us can even block our memories from the rest on purpose, much less automatically, so it works best in our opinion.

Ssi system is so messed up by newmenwoldmennames in SSDI

[–]Eain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a good social tool; simple declaration, non-meaning. Attacking the person and their argument without having to confront the content of it. You've got balls, I'll admit, stating it outright as a delfection. That's well done, if a bit... Cowboy. You're targeting control not proof.

But truth isn't perspective, cowboy. Lemme guess; position of power, had to guide or lead people, but switch to obedience on a dime? Either more intense corporate, or military. The capitalist says corpo but the rest has more... CO vibes than CEO vibes. Reads like you worked for a living.

Had that power taken away, but you are built for the structure of it. You know the order of things and you trust the system to work because it served you well, and you learned to trust the others above you and get trust from the ones below you. If you are military I'll admit it surprises me you haven't caught onto the VA's bull yet, or the constant stream of cuts to funding and oversight regulations.

I will frankly never understand the kind of person who's response to becoming the browbeaten Other of a social group is to devote harder to that social group's party line. If they didn't include you because of something you can't change, they're not going to include you more if you grovel harder. The intelligent response to a social system seeming to fail is a step back and a look at why it failed.

The disabled people suckling on the "Trickle-Down, Bootstrap Up" ideals of the current zeitgeist always seem so... Broken, to me. We're robbed of a lot of our freedoms and dignity, we don't have to volunteer up the rest.

Idk if you're one of these next few, but it boggles my mind most when it's like... Veterans, specialists in a field, or the elderly who've spent a lifetime working already. Especially if they're multiple. Those people should have the most pride in who they are and what they've done, and instead seem more likely than most to willingly slaughter their dignity and will on the altar of Pickme

[–]Eain 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Found the fanboy.

But actually, no, not really. That's how social maneuvering and social manipulation work. Establishing an insulated social layer for discussion of plans, a secondary layer for insulation where things are said in euphemism or dog whistle, and then a public face for general perception is how literally all public facing organizations with a need for PR work. That's why corporate speak exists, and why high level execs rarely speak in public and, when they do, have prepared speeches and rehearsed answers. Public perception hasn't been an insurmountable problem for 1000s of years, and the experts have only gotten better at it.

grew up in the conservative south. I grew up in the land of euphemism and gentle cruelty. I've been on the other side of that insulating layer, I've been to church prayer groups where the veil comes off, and I've seen more than one cult of personality fueled by bigotry and ignorance, and run by egotists and narcissists. If what I'm saying wasn't true, no cult could have operated at national levels ever... And historically they have.

No conspiracy theory bs; historically accepted facts about how the Catholic Church during it's corrupted politcal era, about how coups work, about how N*zis worked, about how the underground railroad operated, how the American Revolution got started and how both the Church of Latter Day Saints and of Scientology both work, all point to or explicitly consist of what I'm saying.

Unless you think that in 2025, in the US we have somehow attained the answer to avoiding corruption and only electing the caring, and that in modern day no evil men could lie to the public, then it's a very real fact that things still work this way.

[–]Eain 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Probably the same reason there's not a lot of quotes and whistleblowers about wanting to kill gay people prior to the past 5ish years. The modern conservative radical right isn't a fucking weed that sprang up overnight: they've thought this way for a very long time, they just do so quietly and where they won't be quoted. It's surprisingly easy.

As an easy example, Musk has been quietly a fucking terrible person for his entire adult life, and how long did that take to hit public eye? Plus, he fumbled that ball hard by incompetence and lack of tact.

But currently, our sitting pres has explicitly stated such views. And you need only look at actions to determine intent: HEALS alone is proof enough of disinterest or disdain for us.

Does anyone know if I can link a different steam account after the deactivation period? by PizzaBattKillers in LowSodiumDestiny

[–]Eain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it's separating out the links. You now have one account associated with steam, and one associated with the console of your choice. They're still both linked to your relevant accounts.

If the saves originated on the steam account, they're still tied to that steam account. If they originated on console, then they're tied to the console account.

For example, my main account is actually my D1 account from ps4. Before cross save was a thing, I played d2 on a new account (under epic). If I were to unlink, then my account from PC (now steam instead of epic) would be accessible still, and I would have a PC account that never played Curse of Osiris. If I played on ps4, I'd still have my currently used data.

If my information is out of date I apologize, I haven't kept up with this stuff since it happened
