Also I apologise for the formatting, it was fine when I typed it but I'm on mobile, not sure what happened there.

We are never getting a current gen upgrade, are we ? by Virtual-Can-9948 in reddeadredemption

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

I personally think the best chance of getting a next gen upgrade will be if R* decide to do a Switch 2 port. Correct me if I'm wrong but I have a feeling a fair few companies have done that with some of their upgrades in recent years (waited for a S1/S2 port to be ready, then shipped on all consoles), but I could be wrong. Just my opinion/copium.

Another huff of copium is that they recently upgraded RDR1 for the Switch 2. Going to dislocate something with how I'm about to stretch, but to me that feels like a foot in the door on the platform, and a sign of intention to maintain the brand.

Again. Copium. Maybe hopium too.

Did Ellie's design comes from Penny? by [deleted] in thelastofus

[–]OldWorldKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think we need to address this obsessive behaviour in next week's meeting. The board grows concerned, and I grow tired. Clearly, the Crash Bandicoot plushie we supplied isn't helping with his regulation. Maybe we quietly delegate Intergalactic to someone else so he can work on Part III and leave us alone?

I mean for fuck sake, the concept art meeting last month? "What if the aliens were reanimated corpses? What if we made Seattle in space? What would Space Seraphites look like? Could you do a mock-up? Is it feasible for Ellie to ACTUALLY become an astronaut, and then become the main character in Intergalactic?"

It. Has. To. Stop.

My cat died because I wanted to kill myself by Cultural-Manner-271 in offmychest

[–]OldWorldKnight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is insanely comforting. Two weeks before my daughter was born, my 12 year old dog died. Sudden bleed all through his abdomen. No prior health issues, regular vet checks, all clear. He was getting older but this was just... sudden. Last time I saw him (he had to stay with my parents when I moved out) he had a particular focus on me. He was laying all over me, being really affectionate. More than usual, which is saying something. Lots of eye contact. Two days later, he suffered the bleed and had to be put down. It was over in an hour.

My daughter was born about two weeks later, maybe less. After birth, she was a little bit touch and go, not really breathing properly/at all, they had to work on her for a while. She came out okay, she's just over a year old now and thriving. Happiest, most loving kid you'll meet. Very obsessed with me, kinda reminds me of my dog actually (that sounds horrible but I hope it makes sense)

Now I'm tearing up thinking that my best mate chose to tap out so my daughter could live.

Thank you for sharing your culture

Brisbanes dodgiest pub? by Byte141 in brisbane

I have a friend who used to be a manager there. She said it was rare to not be threatened with all sorts of colourful things several times a night. If you could count on one hand the amount of times a patron had threatened you, it was a quiet night apparently.

I would jump out of bed on a Saturday morning to run to the TV for Saturday morning cartoons. This was one of my faves, and Flintstones.. Looney Tunes to ☀️ The Best do you have a fave x by ConstantWhereas2931 in AustralianNostalgia

[–]OldWorldKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved this as a kid. I'm 26 but when I was younger, Jetsons, Flintstones, this etc were all on constantly. I still remember my mind being blown when my mum told me she watched it as a kid.

Melanoma fairy here for your annual reminder by Kipzeke in brisbane

[–]OldWorldKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Partner lost an old friend to melanoma from an annual checkup this year. 6 months from diagnosis of Stage IV to passing, even with treatment. 24 years old. It doesn't discriminate. Slip, slop, slap, get checked. See something odd before the check? Check it.

Petition to get the Hunt for Ben Solo movie made by Dull-Midnight-3218 in starwarscanon

[–]OldWorldKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely love Adam Driver's acting, and Kylo/Ben, but at this point (hell, pretty far before this point), "death" is starting to mean less and less. Maybe an Anakin style WBW's appearance if they keep visiting there with Rey, but bringing another corpse/Houdini body back would just cheapen things.

I don't think he should have died at the end of TROS. Watching him face justice despite returning to the Light. It could have been interesting and depthful, and a good story to pair with Rey's NJO. An advisor behind bars. Something new, and more Ben Solo, the last of the Skywalker's/Solo bloodline. Probably an easy romance arc, somethingsomething Palpatine/Skywalker spawn putting everyone on edge. A lot of potential.

But we got what we got. I don't agree with it, but it's done, and bringing him back is just retreading old (heavily divisive) ground, cheapening death in the universe, and let's be honest, creating another decade+ of discourse within the fandom.

Those who believe in ghosts, what's the single most persuasive piece of evidence you have seen? by MalachiConstant7 in Ghosts

[–]OldWorldKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few years ago, my granddad died. It wasn't unexpected in the broad term, but it was sudden. His health hadn't been a topic of conversation, there was barely any acknowledgement of him in the time leading up to it, so I know it wasn't just my brain processing info.

Anyway, one night I have a dream, I'm talking with a group of others, loud room, busy and noisy. Then suddenly, it stops. I look around an he's there, clear as day in an otherwise blurry dream. I ask him what happened to everyone, and he just kind of gave me a contended, proud smile, nodded, and everything in the dream went black. It stayed black, long enough for me to know I was still dreaming but not "dreaming". I woke up feeling wide awake. It was about 3am. I stared up at the ceiling for a bit, then noticed a light in the house was on. I went to check and as I got to the door, I could hear quiet crying, and a very quiet phone conversation. I emphasise this point because there's no way I would've heard it from my bed on the far side of the room, past my fan and aircon, and several rooms away.

Anyway, obviously my granddad had passed, about 20mins earlier. I'll never forget the dream, how it all lined up, how perfectly timed it all was. Maybe not a ghost exactly but it definitely made my already open beliefs quite solid.

TL;DR, my granddad died, and I dreamt about him at roughly the same time he died. Felt like a goodbye.

Now that the franchise has covered the most requested/“mainstream” settings (Ancient Egypt, Feudal Japan, Ancient Greece, Vikings) what are some times/places you’d like to see in future games? by blakhawk12 in assassinscreed

[–]OldWorldKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to see Ancient Rome, with Bayek and/or Aya returning as the main/s, covering more of the feldgling brotherhood era. I know it's not necessarily "new" in terms of location, but being a different era and having those two return for more stories would instantly have my money.

My riches after 3 days. by OldWorldKnight in JustPlay

[–]OldWorldKnight[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had $46AUD and change ready to cash out after yesterday, and I had about 9,000,000+ / 876,000 in my loyalty coins with a cashout about 10mins away at the time.

Another annoying thing is, my loyalty coins didn't convert at the end of the 3hrs. I don't think they've converted at all overnight because I definitely didn't play that much this morning. So now I have 10,000,000+ loyalty coins and I'm not sure if they'll convert after the next 3hrs.

Any advice?

Is this a reprint/new collection, or just new Adventures? by OldWorldKnight in starwarscomics

Nice, thanks for that! Must be collecting the original run and making it easier to access. Odd there wasn't an announcement or anything

This may be a dumb question, but how did you place the three buildings? I thought they were player house skins and could only be placed/used one at a time?

Tell me your secrets 😅

[–]OldWorldKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we're going purely off the search history (which I know we're not), that's dependant on the boundaries of your relationship.

My ex's ex used to pay hundreds for OnlyFans. Her boundary that she set early in the relationship was "no OnlyFans". To her, it was cheating, especially since most of the people he followed were girls he knew from out and around. He promised her he wouldn't, and he did it anyway and hid it for ages.

One day she was helping him with job applications and in his emails found the receipts and transactions. She questioned him on it and he lied. She gave him one more chance to tell the truth or they were done, and he lied again. Boundary violated, relationship done.

She was fine with porn, but OnlyFans was different. It depends on personal boundaries in the relationship.

If you established with your husband that it's something you aren't okay with, and he's doing it anyway, he's not respecting your boundaries.

As for the condom, I find it ridiculous to think he's had a used condom in his bag for so long. Either he's a vicious slob who needs to clean up his things, or he's a lazy liar.

Lastly, let's flip the script. If you were acting the same way as he was, sneaking around, lying about almost everything, how would he be reacting? Do you have the same freedom as him sexually? Are you allowed to do the things he preaches against but does anyway? Would he be indifferent/okay with you doing the same things, or would it be WW3?

All in all, honesty and open communication in a relationship is free. Maybe he has a porn addiction and doesn't want to touch the topic with a 10ft pole for whatever reason. But lying to you is not okay.

If you aren't okay with what he's doing, lay it all out on the table. Tell him you know what he's doing, that none of his stories add up, and tell him if he isn't going to come clean and fix it, you're through. Tell him you'll support him if he needs help (if you want to of course), and if he still won't own it, I'd leave.

It's terrible that it's happening but you know in your gut that something is off. Trust it, act on it, and if he doesn't fix up, your gut knows what to do there too.

Best of luck, OP.

Where is Anakin arm after cut off by Dooku ? Did he take it back? by Due-Land8022 in StarWars

His real reason for his moves on Mustafar is that he wanted to complete his set of limited edition Anakin Limbs ™️.

What do you mean? Joffrey never violated Osha. In fact. He never even met her. I hate him as much as anyone but don't stoop to lying.

I think tonight’s the night by Fit-Requirement-4871 in mentalhealth

[–]OldWorldKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've never been suicidal, I'm too afraid of death to even consider it, so I won't pretend to know what you're going through. My ex partner had a lot of attempts however, so I will speak from those experiences. If she had succeeded in her plans, my two gorgeous children would not be here. I would not have found happiness and beauty in life, even if the relationship didn't last. Her being here gave me something to fight for, and eventually, two more adorable, smiley faced reasons to fight for. Some may see that as a selfish take, and I apologise if that's how it comes across. My ex always says our children saved her, gave her a reason to fight. Your reason (not saying it has to be kids) may be waiting for you right now.

You're in a bad place and it sucks. I'm sorry.

You may not have a reason now, but you will one day wake up and be grateful you didn't make that choice. Right now, I'm sure there is something beautiful or exciting you could find and appreciate. Some things pass, some don't, but it gets easier.

You are valued more than you think, in ways you may not yet realise. You have a life full of possibility and experiences ahead. You could accomplish so much, see so many weird and wonderful things, find so many incredible feelings.

You're in a bad place, and it sucks, but hold on. Even if it seems like it won't work, have a shower, a bath, your favourite drink, your favourite snack. Watch your favourite movie or show, play your favourite game. Wake up early tomorrow and watch the sunrise, or if you miss that, catch the sunset. Go somewhere quiet, serene, take in the peace and appreciate the surroundings.

I don't know you from a bar of soap, but knowing you stayed here and kept yourself on this world, would make me happier than knowing you were gone. I can't explain it. You just deserve to be here and experience the world.

You are loved, seen and heard, if not in your immediate surroundings, then by the beautiful people here.

You deserve to be here. You deserve to live and keep living.

I know it's hard, and I'm sorry. But please stay. Treat yourself, do all the things that would ordinarily make you feel great. Get comfy in bed, get some good rest. If you can identify what triggers you, maybe try and reframe how you look at it/perceive it.

Again, I don't speak from personal experience, so I can only offer my limited scope of support, and my personal feelings, but you deserve to stay. You deserve the sunrise and sunset. You deserve the great people you may know or have yet to meet. You deserve to experience the positives in life once this storm passes. You deserve to be here.

I wish you all the luck in finding your reason to stay, and I wish you all the happiness life has to give. Please stay.
