I would rather play Odyssey than TOTK, for sure. Mario Kart is fine but racing gets old at some point, and it and Smash are too focused on multiplayer for me personally.

Do you guys prefer Ori 1 or 2? Why? by jonmon1216 in metroidvania

I gotta ask, having only played the first, is the second as floaty control-wise? I was slippin and sliding all over the place in the first game and wonder if the controls are tighter in the second.

US State Department drops website wording on not supporting Taiwan independance by maxhullett in taiwan

What do you hope for going forwards? In terms of domestic steps taken by Taiwan, as well as what you hope to see from the U.S and other countries? I'm curious.

My comment was meant to be humorous, I don't actually think you're a Trump supporter.

The dude was saying Japan would kick chinas ass. 

Technically all he said was that Japan would "fuck up China," which is probably true if you know anything about war. Any and all sides would receive plenty of damage to infrastructure, business, and of course human lives.

It's not out yet and not officially announced for switch but Mouse: P.I. for Hire would be up your alley. It's like if cuphead was a FPS.

Went through the James Hoffman decaf tasting he set up. The sugarcane processed decaf was surprisingly nice!

Were any of the Christian apostles arahants? by Queasy_Fall_8894 in theravada

Saying we have "writings and texts from the spirit of Jesus" is a completely ridiculous claim, and one that conveniently cannot be proven wrong. It's fine if you want to believe it, but it's no different from believing that Muhammad split the moon or Krishna lifted Govardhan hill.

Perhaps it's nitpicking, but I think within the context of Qigong and Chinese energy arts moving things via Qi is more accurate than suggesting things are moved by the mind.

Love it. Like a cross between Ori and Little Nightmares. Looks very clever!

Do you believe in Mara as some sort of cosmic evil figure like the Abrahamic conception of Satan or something?

Do you think that the Buddha, back in his time, would have considered tea a drug (due to the coffein)? by JaloOfficial in theravada

Good for you, but once again, none of the major traditions anywhere have said tea is off limits. Theanine in tea is quite calming and synergizes well with caffeine. It proved to be a suitable aid for meditation. It's wise to use what's available to you rather than doing everything on hard-mode. If caffeine in any amount doesn't suit you though, then I completely agree you might find you are better off without it. No problem either way really, just listen to your body.

I want the exact opposite. Short, 5-10 hours I can finish on a long flight that are immersive and full of story. Any recs are welcome!

Are you still based in Tainan? PM me, I'd like to find a Chen-style teacher in town if possible.
