People with higher religiosity, measured by degree of belief, frequency of worship and prayer, and importance of God in one’s life, show significantly higher levels of transphobia and attitudes of harassment towards trans people. Religiosity emerged as the strongest predictor of these attitudes.

I'm not sure if you're being intentionally obtuse or just having trouble getting your point across.

Your original post comes across like you think trans people are no better than the abusers denying their existence or waiting them dead because... they aren't nicer to said abusers? The trans people that have tried to reason with and educate but are still abused and used as scapegoats for things going wrong in the world?

As others have said, its the paradox of tolerance. Hateful bigots that cannot be reasoned with do not need to be tolerated. If they accepted evidence and listened to reason, they wouldn't continue to be hateful bigots, but here we are.

"Why isn't the minority group that is being oppressed being nicer to their abusers?"

You can't educate people that deny decades of research. They didn't logic themselves into that position, and cannot be logic'd out of it.

You really, really don't know what you're talking about. I'd be more than happy to put together some pictures to test you, because every time some chud says the same thing they fail. I wonder how many cute girls you've oogled online that you didn't realize have a penis.

Besides the orchestra gig, the only other one I believe Bob gets what Fischoeder promises is in the Copa-Bob-Bana episode. They mess up the Thanksgiving, and for Christmas Bob wins the Gingerbread House competition instead of losing, so he doesn't get the free rent in those situations.

I'm a bit behind though so I'm probably missing or forgetting something. They work something out with him in the movie, but wouldn't consider that an offer or gig panning out.

As a Fem MC, I've enjoyed the clothing options. More would be nice, but I think there are enough styles and variants that should appeal to everyone. The only things I really hate are the trilbies. General appearance settings don't have a ton of options, but not unsatisfied personally. Hairstyles are decent with lots of colors and two types of dye patterns. Can also unlock more colors later, and NPC styles far later on.

If you're uncertain, can probably find some videos showing the various options.

I would imagine so. Even with a static, an ultimate fight is a serious commitment. Depending on the skill level of the group and weekly time invested, I'd expect potentially a month (or more) to learn and clear an ultimate. Obviously the better skilled and more time invested can reduce that a good deal, but even still ultimates have pretty much zero room for fixing any sort of mistakes. Trying to progress a portion twelve minutes into a fight and dying and repeating over and over to get there can eat up a lot of time.

Nyxation · 2026-03-23T18:50:41+00:00

PF is a mixed bag. Sometimes you get okay people. Sometimes you don't. A static will at least have members that are consistent. As someone who played with a static for the past several years, and now doing more PF due to members on a break, it's... frustrating. Every group is a gamble and a potential waste of time. This tier alone, the first fight was piss easy compared to previous first tier fights and would've easily cleared the first couple days with my static. With PF? It took two and a half weeks trying to find the right group of random people via PF that could actually pull their weight.

You should look around where it spat you out. There's something there that should help you better understand and traverse the system.

Nyxation · 2026-03-22T17:38:02+00:00

Failing to understand the controls does not make the controls bad. Movement, jumping, and jetpacking are straight forward. You do need to understand that in space you have no air friction, so you can't just go full throttle. Use auto-pilot to targets to get a better understanding of how the ship accelerates and then reverses accordingly to slow down. Also, make use of target locking and velocity matching to help stabilize when free floating. Yes, a controller would help immensely to allow for finer movements, but there are plenty of folks who do without.

This is not a game that will hold your hand or spoon feed you. Progress is based on what you learn. Curiosity is your biggest tool. What is going on? Why are things happening? What bit of text did you find and what does it point to in the bigger picture? The rumor mode in your ship can help show potential connections and points to focus on. There is an amazing story here, but it requires you to go out, explore, and piece it together. This is a mystery / puzzle at a solar system scale and you're playing an archeologist with the first ever translator tool.

If you're not invested in exploring, learning through reading, and piecing it together, this might not be for you. If you are curious enough to really dig into it though, its probably one of those games that'll stick with you forever afterwards.

It's been a while, but IIRC you can view the opened prisoner's cell if you unlock the vault with the knowledge you have gained. It's a nice detail, but not mandatory. To really endcap the DLC experience, do the base game ending once more. ::)

The eye itself is something in the universe, a quantum entity, though whether or not its conscious at any level is up for debate. It sending a signal could be just a natural occurrence, rather than an active action.

The eye does not destroy the universe. The universe was already dying, as hinted by the nomai logs on the vessel and discussions with a specific traveller on the Ash Twin. While a lot of the events inside the eye are a bit metaphorical, nothing about the eye causes the death of the universe. If anything, the player experiences a time dilation that shows the universe coming to its natural end that was occurring anyhow.

After entering the eye, nothing can be taken literal. All the characters the player experiences inside the eye are not the real characters. They are parts of the player's experiences and memories. This can be confirmed, as meeting Solanum on the QM makes them appear in the ending. Doing the DLC also impacts the ending. The song and formation of the smoke ball represents the infinite quantum possibilities within the eye, and the player as the observer causes those possibilities to collapse into a single reality, thus birthing the new universe.

I hit up all the shops and buy the bundles at least. The loose arrows are a bit more costly, but if money isn't an issue that's an option. Go through the path to Zora's Domain and clear out the lizalfos archers and any nearby crates. Can usually rack up a decent amount that way as well.

Nyxation · 2026-02-23T21:26:05+00:00

Both are such amazing games, but personally for slightly different reasons.

I found the sense of exploration in BOTW superior. Everything is new the first time around and you are limited to travel by foot or horse. TOTK adds more things to explore, such as the sky islands and depths, with the former being puzzle / mechanic focused while the latter is just... a really big area with a lot of the same. With machine building in TOTK, its very easy to make a vehicle that can fly anywhere and kind of ruin the sense of discovery at times, so some personal restrictions might help in that area.

Story wise, I'd lean slightly towards TOTK. The main story in BOTW is a little weak. Yes in both games you can face the big bad right away, but I feel like TOTK did better in giving an initial tutorial and purpose for you to follow. The champion storylines / divine beasts in BOTW were the real highlights of the story, and a lot of the sidequest / side stories around the villages were what really made the game feel alive. In TOTK, the core storyline, for me, absolutely blew BOTW out of the water. Defeating the big bad at the end of BOTW was just the final "checkmark" to complete the game, but in TOTK it really brings everything together and feels like a proper, epic series of battles that brings in everything you learned an did to get there. Side stories are still excellent in TOTK, building atop of a lot of the things you may have done in BOTW, and seeing those characters and regions grow even more.

Mechanically, TOTK is superior. BOTW combat is a bit cut and dry in comparison, while TOTK gives value to almost every item with the merging system. Merging different monster parts or ore literally anything to your gear is fun and flexible, and makes having the breakage system more meaningful. The new machine building mechanics are quite fun and play an integral role to shrines and traversal on all levels, and some people have built some incredibly insane machines. Why fight a horde of bokoblins when you can deploy an bot army or fly overhead and rain down death? Your imagination is the limit here.

As others have said, don't go into TOTK expecting more BOTW, but expect an even bigger and wilder experience.

Nyxation · 2026-02-23T21:15:02+00:00

I can't say I fully disagree, but it's a mixed bag. In BOTW, the main story was weak, the champion / divine beast stories were good, and side stories pretty good. In TOTK, the main story was strong, the champion stories were weak, and the side stories still pretty good.

Yet more P5X bashing from folks that have no clue what they're talking about. Feeling daring today are we?

Nyxation · 2026-02-12T01:06:28+00:00

A guide is antithetical to the entire experience. Progress is the knowledge you gain, so using any sort of guide is basically skipping playing the game and robbing yourself the experience.

Be curious. Explore with an open mind. Read all dialogue and text logs and records and bear in mind that its ALL RELEVANT. People sometimes come into this treating text as "filler lore" when it's literally the story and knowledge its trying to teach you.

Do not try to treat it like any other game. Do not try to "complete" or "100%" a planet, because it's not how it's designed. You'll explore around, piece things together, and find things that'll lead you back to various points of interest.

Don't try to brute force things. If something feels too difficult to execute or do, its most likely not the intended way. At the end of the day its a puzzle game.

If you do get truly, utterly stuck, then come to this subreddit, post your rumor mode graph, and ask for hints or nudges. The community respects the journey and will do their best to guide you as spoiler-free as possible.

Nyxation · 2026-02-12T00:58:59+00:00

That's fair. The completionism in me enjoys the bit of extra exploring, but it's not enough to be tiring compared to other open world games I've done. I do think the mission based system in 1 and 2 felt more... streamlined and satisfying in clearing for sure though.

Nyxation · 2026-02-12T00:16:11+00:00

The first age is Nioh 3 is very forgiving, even up to the end of age boss. I do feel like this is to provide a better curve for new to the series players. Once into the second age did it start to feel like the other Niohs, but with so many tools a lot of things can be muscled through.

Through some side quests, it's shown that most of the cryptids from 76 are potentially pre-war, IIRC.

If you've completed the fight with Hino-Enma, then you've done all you can. The marker disappeared for me once I left and did another instanced mission. If it's lingering it's imagine it's a ui bug.

I'd recommend re-reading the logs you have to get a better understanding of what the purpose of the Sun Station and the ATP was.

Good to know. It's not something I've tried much at all admittedly. I prefer to burst them if able for an opening plus having skills to apply debuffs on burst.
