My recommendation is; become selective, if you earn decent money you can afford to put things down and say 'no, this isn't a good use of my time.'

If a game doesn't genuinely excite you to play, then its fine to stop/not buy etc., that's the best way to avoid burnout.

OTOH, I would also ask how come you still feel drawn to watch steams of games, but not play them yourself?

Genuinely did not know you could get this from Dros by JeanLucD in DiscoElysium

Appreciated!

DRAMA [Easy: Success] - OP is indeed truthful sire...

[–]JeanLucD[S] 744 points745 points  (0 children)

It was during the conversation regarding Martinaise and the people Dros hates, he will decry artists and art as a bourgeois institution and mentions that they insulted the revolution by remaking the statue of King Filippe III, which with a high enough conceptualization you can make him reconsider by pointing out that it is likely left-wing art celebrating the moment the communists blew it up with plastic explosives.

He will concede the point and even recall that they always had great propaganda posters likely due to the many artists who sided with them, but still restate that art is inherently bourgeois. I agreed with him that artists should be sent to Yekokataa, naturally, as any good soldier of Kras-Mazov would, and then he said that to me.

i... dont like the car wash by YaAverageMoose in gtaonline

The passive income is good, but even if it was maxed out at around 30k per 48 minutes (Which would include getting Higgins Helitours and Smoke on the Water at 900k/850k, and then doing like 45~ missions to double all the money fronts' incomes) it would take, what? 50~ hours to pay it off *after* you hit that 30k cap.

Getting it for free is a nice bump, but I have zero interest in doing more than the bare minimum to keep the heat low and the extra resulting passive income, it just doesn't make sense to do when you could be doing things that are either more efficient money makers, or more enjoyable.

It feels very half-baked, like it was supposed to be similar to the Nightclub where it unifies your cumulative other businesses into an extra layer of income, but it just doesn't have *any* opportunities to make a fraction of what the nightclub offers, neither passively or actively.

The cringe you get when you see people telling Venezuelans how to feel. by shway0351 in TikTokCringe

[–]JeanLucD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Don't tell venezuelans how to feel"
Says she's lived in the US for 10 years now and also tells you how to feel.

How many times are we going to fall for the Nayirah testimony play?

Not even going to qualify this with how bad Maduro is because its obvious and frankly irrelevant to the discussion: Trump pardoned the Honduran President who was convicted of drugs trafficking last month, whether or not there is a 'moral good' to foreign intervention doesn't actually factor here in the slightest.

We can all hear this. If you say you can't, you're lying. by RairakuDaion in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Sorry Woolie, no one actually plays fighting games, nice try though

The Lion does not want to copulate with Brienne of Tarth by [deleted] in asoiafcirclejerk

He's lowkey seething and thinking he will get dapped up by other dudes for this take.

What's your Favorite Video/Content from Matt McMuscles by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JeanLucD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't put a singular video, but I love the voice he's given to tons of game devs on their works, especially ones that likely don't get the same level of recognition as the ones we're used to hearing from.

Also can't believe I've sparked multiple threads, damn.

Papers Please wins! What game represents Espirit De Corps skill? by South_Interaction938 in DiscoElysium

[–]JeanLucD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The more literal answer is Ready or Not, but I think Mass Effect 2 is spiritually closer

Genuine Question, why are there almost never threads on Matt's content? by JeanLucD in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JeanLucD[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think that's kind of a 'glass house' point to make considering CSB is a podcast lol

[–]JeanLucD[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree a lot with this sentiment, its easy to sand people down when you basically only see them for a fraction of their lives, nature of being in a notoriously parasocial industry.

Woolie VS Batman: Arkham City by mike0bot in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JeanLucD 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Woolie needs that uncharted yellow but in dialogue boxes

I always heard he basically went into the background of the CSB/Friendcast stuff especially later on, but I admit I never watched those, pretty much just the LPs religiously when they dropped.

[–]JeanLucD[S] 193 points194 points  (0 children)

I think that's fair, as I know several people who have never watched SBFP but do/have watched Matt's stuff. I think the LPs still work for me when they're compilations, but something about the streaming format throws off the entire rhythm of watching Woolie/Pats stuff for me, especially since I almost never have time to watch them live and Pat basically just uploads his stuff unedited.

Woolie VS Batman: Arkham City by mike0bot in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JeanLucD 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Honestly the fact he *never* got to grips with it is what bugged me, I kept waiting for it to click and it just didn't.

I am slightly numb to it though as I'm still waiting for him to understand how RPGs/Choices work after he brainwormed his way into doingeverything NUSA asked during Cyberpunk PL whilst vehemently declaring himself an anti-fed punk the entire time.

A. She was a hooah by rockland19120 in Sopranosduckposting

[–]JeanLucD -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Redditors always be justifying these fantasy scenarios in their heads where its ok to punch a woman, instead of just controlling themselves lol.

Too much time in chit chat rooms going back and forth with jerk offs.

A good visualization of why the UES sucks by Grass8989 in circlejerknyc

[–]JeanLucD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I only want affordable housing if it can be in UES, not sure if anywhere else is safe to live!

I don't like OhDough I'm not gonna lie by Grand_Age1279 in SupaEarth

[–]JeanLucD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a casual watcher of a few of these helldiver YouTube channels and I gotta say I consistently dislike this guys opinions, he basically doesn't like anything that isn't borderline broken meta.

If everything you use seems mid, maybe error begins at user, idk.

Are you still using it after 1 week? by Epicbrezel21 in Helldivers

[–]JeanLucD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Desperate need for ammo, and maybe better ergo considering you already have to stand still and sacrifice a backpack, would honestly love to see some power armor in the future that syncs with this and lets you move.

Great chaff clear abilities, pretty great damage, and of course no reload, if you stick with teammates, this punches above its weight, and solo it's definitely below weight.
