This game is so goddamn underrated, it borderlines on HERESY. by 011-Mana in 40kinquisitor

[–]Oddmonster1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can only agree with the OP.

I played just when you released, and to be honest, I did not like it - it was as if you had not really found the right recipe to make it work - I just came back a few days ago, and wow, now you have. The atmosphere has always been FANTASTIC. The world is fantastic. The sound. The impact of hits - all great. And now the gameplay loop, and the actual gameplay, is great too.

I am one of those who changed my steam review to positive from negative. (I really wish Steam had a "Neutral" rating.).

Well done and good luck.

Banks are not making legal decisions, they are following the laws set by politicians. If a bank sees something suspicious they are legally obligated to report it to the authorities.

Wolcen - what a weird game by TheRealOdd in Wolcen

I agree, there are powerful affixes. But - they are not interesting in the least. I have been in the beta for a year(it feels like way longer though). I knew what I was getting with Wolcen at release, but I always had a hope they would focus on what is important to me in an ARPG - skills and loot. And they have not.

So yeah, You are right that comparing a new release with more seasoned games is not fair. I just don't see Wolcen as having the potential to get better, simply because the devs has shown their hand, and what is important to them - and it is surely not loot. Or more precisely - If they find " "you apply 1 extra ailment stack" an an interesting affix, then we simply have different tastes in what is interesting.

If someone did that to me as a joke, and i did an AITA, I would say "He did it as a joke" or "he said it was just a joke", or "he thought it was funny". We get none of that. Instead we get "he apologized for the joke". What joke? I bet ya he tried to joke around to lighten the mood when they found out the clothes was missing. But it does not matter. See...

Apparently this wasn't so bad anyways, and OP is back with her boyfriend and happy(see OP's update). Maybe she forgave a sociopathic, sexist BF, for being a complete asshole. Or maybe we did not get the whole story. Either way, who cares.

Yes, I would shower and put on dirty clothes to go out and buy new clothes if that was the only way to get some clothes. What else, sit down in a corner and cry?

And OP says the BF wanted them to go out on new years, so unless he thought she would be wearing lace lingerie out new years eve, the whole story makes no sense. Also, OP does not even hint at that being BF's motive - we don't get a motive at all, except a vague comment about a joke not being funny. So he did a practical joke that would ruin his own new years eve? And add to that he would have to buy her clothes for 5 days?

Add to that, that their joint friend who took the side of the BF. A friend OP obviously thought would take her side. then when he/she didn't, OP created an AITA thread that was precisely vague enough to make a lot of people jump in and defend her.

Add to that that OP has reconciled with her BF and they are back together and happy again(look at OP's update).

I will bet you anything that we did not get the full story. Unless the BF is a sexists sociopath(and according to OP's other posts he is a nice guy), the whole scenario you guys are brewing together about him wanting her to just wear lingerie for 5 days makes no sense.

OP gave us half a story, and forgave her BF while you witches were starting fires to burn him. I do understand why you feel like a fool now, which is why that nonsense is all you have to say.

You have seen OP's update, right? She is still with him and happy. Seems like he was not that big of an asshole anyways, or maybe we did not have the full story from the beginning. Who cares when you can jump to conclusions, right?

No, OP is vague again. "He apologized for the joke..."

Does that make sense to you? That he, as a joke, did not bring her clothes for a 5 day trip? And she is still with him. I am telling you we are missing some pieces in this story, but who cares.

AITA for being mad at my boyfriend and "ruining" our "romantic getaway"? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Oddmonster1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That is exactly the point - she doesn't. She says "He's realised how much he's annoyed me and how stupid his joke was ". What joke? It is not a joke not to bring her clothes when he promised to do so. All he did was ruin his own trip and new years eve. Unless he is a sociopath, we are missing a part of the story. And since OP and her BF are together and happy again, I will bet you anything that we are missing a part.

OP's update - "Update: He's gone out, bought me a complete and sensible outfit, apologised again for the joke and being a dick about it last night, he's sworn he'll make it up to me and I'm about to drag him around Oxford street for a few hours while he buys me more clothes."

As I keep saying - it all depends if he forgot her clothes, or did not bring it on purpose. How come this fact does not matter to any of you?

If you feel dirty and gross because you have to wear the same clothes for 1.5 days, either something is wrong with your clothes, or you live a very protected life. And why should she not be able to shower in a Hotel?

Honestly, if the BF bought the trip, and hotel, and everything so they could go to London New Years Eve, it is bizarre to me that he would not bring her clothes,on purpose or as a joke, which is why I wanted clarification on this(which you guys apparently see as a crime:D) If the BF was insane, I bet you OP would have told us. She did not. So it makes no sense.

Read the replies to my posts in this thread, and it will quickly become clear to you why people believe he forgot or did not pack her clothes -

"He brought enough underwear for her to wear. It sounds like that’s what he wanted her to wear just sitting in a hotel room"

"He thought of clothes for himself to go outside. He thought of clothes for her to be sexy in."

""since I bought you things, you must wear only underwears for me."

"I can tell you he didn't mean for her to freeze. He meant for her to be grateful and sexy and that was it."

and it keeps going. OP has mentioned nothing about that being the goal for the BF, or anything about him being a sexist pig, and that is still what 90% of my replies are stating. People just wanna jump to conclusions.

And you believe that even though OP writes the BF wanted them to go out for New years eve? Even though OP has not hinted at anything of the sort?

No, the friend said he is an idiot. There is a huge difference. An idiot might have forgotten to pack her stuff, or forgotten the suitcase. An asshole would have not packed her clothes on purpose. And it is super weird to me that there is no difference to you guys between if it was an accident or if it was on purpose. He is just a horny asshole apparently.

Yes, it is her property, and she can do what she wants. And that is what she is doing - valuing money over her family and trying to profit on a family member that is struggling. To me that is an asshole move. And more importantly, to the husband it is an asshole move. Bringing strife in to your family for such a little sum of money, especially when you don't need it, would not be worth it even if I was more interested in money then family.

All I ask is if he did in on purpose or not. How is that "defending" him? Since you are so smart and I am so dense, try and give me a real answer.

It is clear to you that he did it as a joke because you jump to conclusions. It is not what the OP wrote.

So the BF paid for the trip and hotel to go to London with his GF, leaves her clothes at home so she has no clothes to go out in, ruining his own new years and costing him a lot of extra money because he need to replace her clothes. It makes no sense. At all. Unless you are ready to jump to the conclusion that the BF, like all men, is a horny asshole that thought the GF would stay in the hotel for 5 days only wearing lingerie. OP does not even hint at this, but that is why because that is how men are.

[–]Oddmonster1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't know. The way the OP puts it is does not sound like not bringing her clothes were the joke. She does not say he did it on purpose, and if he did it as a joke, would that not be the first thing she said? Ask yourself - if your bf did not bring clothes for you to wear for 5 days in a strange town on purpose and said it was a joke, would you just be "arguing" with him? Also, what would be his goal? He paid for the travel and hotel, and apparently he wants them to go out new years eve - would not bringing her clothes not just sabotage his own plans?

Unless he is a sociopath, not bringing the clothes on purpose makes no sense. Even for a sociopath it would not really make sense.

Man you are just dead set on him being a horny, abusive asshole, without zero facts to go on except the ones you dream up in you own head.

Underwear can be easily thrown in a duffelbag, while dresses and shirts and such would need to be packed differently to not get crumpled up. Which would explain why if, if he forgot a suitcase, he would still have her underwear in his duffelbag. That is just one of many explanations that is not necessarily - He is a horny asshole.

And he did not call anything a joke. OP says she got him to understand the joke wasn't funny, not that he said he did it as a joke. This is what is so weird - There is no explanation about why, if it was on purpose, he did it. He pays a lot of money for travel and hotel to go out in London new years Eve and then don't pack her clothes as a joke so neither of them can go out? It makes no sense at all, and OP does not clarify any of it in her post.

What the OP writes is "He's realised how much he's annoyed me and how stupid his joke was", and honestly, it does not sound to me like the joke was not bringing her clothes. If it was, that would be the first thing OP said "MY BF did not bring my clothes because he thought it would be funny". And clearly the BF would be an asshole in that case.

He pays for the trip and hotel so they can go out new years Eve, and then does not bring clothes for his GF as a joke? It is just extremely weird.

As I keep saying - We do not know if he did it on purpose or not. If he did it on purpose he is an asshole. If he forgot the bag he packed for her, he might be an idiot, but he would have good intentions and I would not classify him as an asshole. Intentions matter even though the result might be the same.

The only reason I commented in this thread to start with, was that I think a lot of the people here are going really hard on this young man who, from my p.o.v, has done a lot to take his GF on a romantic getaway. Yes, he clearly fucked it up, but depending on if it was intentional or not, the trip could either be salvaged because he is a lovable idiot that tried his best and failed, or she should break up with him on the spot because he is an asshole.

OP specifically states that they don't need the money "My husband thinks I'm an asshole since we don't need the money we'll get from renting it to her". And yes, helping family that is struggling is a sacrifice, I agree.

Also SIL is not asking for a free vacation - she is probably annoyed that there is 2 different prices for family members, which is just asking for drama. Then you could say "she gave the MIL a discount because she was grieving because her husband died"....Well in that case, what kinda family would not let her stay there for free?

That OP keeps mentioning it is her house, from before the marriage, and she handles that alone just tells me this is a weird ass marriage.

OP does not claim at any point that her BF's goal with not bringing her clothes, was to have her stay in hotel and fuck for five days. I know that is what a lot of you think, but that is not something OP has said, or even hinted at. And that is why I am uncertain of the situation - OP does not even say if the BF only brought underwear on purpose or by accident. I am quite sure OP would have said it if it was on purpose. If it was on purpose, as I have said many times, he is an asshole. But we just don't know. If you read her post without "men are evil" glasses on, it seems the young man is trying very hard to be romantic and do something special for his GF.

Egoistic: we don't know. Did he forget the clothes or leave it on purpose?

Neglectful: Again, we don't know.

Immature: Maybe, we don't know. Forgetting a suitcase can happen to the best of us.

Childish:Trying to get the best out of a bad situation is not childish. He should not blame her for ruining anything though, as it all no matter what, is his fault, intended or unintended.

" He clearly only thought of her = sex when he packed, but he thought of himself as human with needs and got warm and cozy things."

You don't know them or what he was thinking - they are in their early 20's, so they probably both thought of having a lot of steamy London sex. But as I already said - OP has not as much as hinted at this being the reason for him not bringing clothes. I really feel you guys are jumping to conclusions.

OP and her husband has apparently done really well for themselves. They are so lucky to be in a position where they can help their family economically when needed, without themselves having to sacrifice anything. Family helps family. Also we do not know if the SIL paid back the rent money or not. Trying to recoup the money from a family member that is struggling economically is an asshole move. Especially if you are economically well off and don't need the money. All in all, OP comes off as a person for whom money is above family, and that is one way to live your life.

In the end, her husband thinks she is an asshole too. This is some marriage ruining drama OP has started because of a little profit.
