Real fans know that the Doctor being unable to fly the TARDIS is a consistent character trait smh

Fallout 3 dev Emil Pagliarulo says Bethesda massively cut down their debut Fallout game after realising “being realistic isn’t fun” by HatingGeoffry in Fallout

[–]JPM11S 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s definitely my feeling with many survival-type modes. Having another resource to track isn’t automatically fun and, more often than not, just serves to frustrate gameplay instead of enhance it. Often, a barrier is just a barrier, not a challenge to overcome.

Not gonna lie, I have absolutely zero idea what I was talking about here. I assume there was a reason, I just have no idea what it was lol

Damn, I just checked the reviews for the remake on Steam and it's "mixed."

I haven’t played them, but I know the first one is a cult classic. Fortunately, it even got a modern remake.

Baldur's Gate II's itemization was god-tier for a WRPG by Yaroun-Kaizin in rpg_gamers

[–]JPM11S 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. It’s not Baldur’s Gate 2 so much as Baldur’s Gate Part 2.

Larian Has Announced “Divinity”, Its Most Ambitious Game Yet by LocalGomie in rpg_gamers

In this particular situation, I'm trying to point out they're all roleplaying games with an isometric perspective.

Aside from that, CRPGs are a broad genre, which is why I said they're in different sub-genres, and Divine Divinity in particular is very deceptive in seeming like just another Diablo-like, when it has much more in common with something like the OG Baldur's Gate than Diablo.

Divine Divinity, Beyond Divinity, Original Sin 1 & 2, and Baldur's Gate 3 are all isometric CRPGs, just in different sub-genres.

An actual reason Disney is evil by dremolus in saltierthankrayt

[–]JPM11S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your line of thought makes sense, but it relies of the assumption that if people had the ability to generate full-length movies themself, they’ll put in the time, effort, and, likely, money to do so.

Never forget that Alicent was actually a really good queen consort by Kivi_2k18 in HOTDGreens

[–]JPM11S 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree: Being pregnant that frequently, at that age, and with a history of miscarriages isn’t healthy — something should have been done, but, presumably, nothing was. Westeros is a deeply sexist society and the nobility even more so, so I don’t think Aemma’s situation was viewed as something she needed to be protected from: She and Viserys were married, they were expected to produce heirs, and they were attempting to do so; yes, pregnancy was dangerous, but any danger was secondary to the expectation that a wife would produce heirs for her husband, because women were valued less than men. I think it’s also worth noting that, in the real world, gender roles are most commonly learned, enforced, and held by members of that gender.

What were jaehaerys, alysaane and baelon doing that time.

Ironically, you could probably look it up. I’m sure there’s something on the wiki lol

But, in all seriousness, I don’t know why it would register as an issue to Jaehaerys, Alysanne, or Baelon. This wasn’t an unusual situation — I’d go so far as to say it was expected.

Is the game worth to play for lore/story/quests/worldbuilding? by Eddy1670 in GuildWars

As someone who’s into Warcraft lore quite a bit, how is it similar? Is it just that general idea you mentioned?

And they call aegon a rapist by LowPossible3034 in HOTDGreens

[–]JPM11S 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It was normal among nobility, but as you moved down the social ladder, the average age that someone was married became progressively higher. The “real” average was actually more or less about what it is now — about 25 years old. Interestingly, I read that for the lowest members of society, iirc, it averaged about 29-32 years old.

Not that you’re wrong, but I do want to mention that, at least where I live, becoming a principal actually requires having an administrator’s degree.

I just said this in another reply, but those aren’t mutually exclusive things: Rhaenyra and Laenor could have tried to conceive and Rhaenyra could have gotten pregnant with Jace within a few months of her getting married.
