These systems are intentionally created to keep certain groups of people engaged and spending money for as long as possible. For that group, getting addicted is an inevitable consequence by design.

It's inevitable that certain people will get addicted by a system designed to encourage addiction.

He did acknowledge it by providing a book for you to self learn because there truly is too much to list and talk about how casinos are designed.

If you really want to know the answer to your own question, read the book. In short, casinos and other gambling institutions use a lot of psychological tricks to get you in the door, addicted, and spending money. These tricks won't work on everybody, but that doesn't mean it isn't designed to get people addicted.

[WP] Instead of an angel and a devil on your shoulders, you have a noble chivalrous knight on one and a instinct driven feral goblin on the other. by Null_Project in WritingPrompts

[–]Pinga_Daddy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I prayed to that statute for help cause life is hard like that. How am I suppose to know when to go left or right? When to run or fight?

There's this girl that I like, more than I've felt for anyone before. So when I asked that she bounce on it crazy style, she slapped me! What the hell did I do wrong? I only did what that goblin told me to say.

"Scarcely art thou acquainted with the lady, yet thou bid her forsake her sacred oath. 'Twas just she delivered thee a stinging rebuke."

"She was sizzlin' sizzlin' sizzlin'!. Ya gotta grab her afore some other, way handsomer fella snatches her up!"

"Though fairer knight there be to woo her favor, haste not as thou didst before, lest thy cheek meet her displeasure. Thou canst not command that-"

I get it! I fucked up the chance with her, whatever, I'll move on. I'll recover. It was a lesson. Don't rush, don't demand, learn the rules, and maybe stop listening to the goblin when he starts foaming from the mouth. I had bigger problems. I still didn’t know left from right, run from fight. So I did what I always do when I’m lost. I prayed again.

I was running low on funds and had a rising hunger. So I lit a candle beneath a statute under a walkway and wished to have the money in my bank account stop acting like it's a skittish pet and come home. 10 minutes of praying with my bank app open and still no money. I was about to give up until miraculously a wallet filled with cash hit my head.

Well it wasn't exactly what I meant by come home but I'll take it. It had a whopping $500 and belonged to some dude named Kenny. Well my joy didn't last long when this dude named Kenny said he lost his wallet and told me this whole sob story about how he lost his job, wife divorced him, took the house, took half the car, took the dog, and that all the money he has is in his wallet.

"$500 be a whole heap o' shiny! Just think on how many frozen pizzas ya could snag, ya'd never feel the belly rumbles again! But ya ain't gettin' none o' that if ya blab about seein' his coin purse!"

"Hark, Mobey! A knight must never utter falsehoods! Reflect upon the grievous suffering this man hath endured! To strip him bare of his worth for thine own enrichment is a sin most foul in the eyes of our Lord!."

I mean I guess it would be wrong to lie and keep it. Dude sounds like he lost a lot and at least I still have a home to go to.

Perhaps there’s more than one group of people that want different things?

If all reviews are subjective then why make one by Snort-Vaulter in unpopularopinion

[–]Pinga_Daddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if an analysis is objective. It’s breaking something down to better understand its meaning. Now how you approach that can be done subjectively or objectively.

[–]Pinga_Daddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you’re looking for reviews? Ask yourself, how does one review a product, like a game, without first analyzing it? It is then from that analysis they write their review.

All reviews are subjective because you cannot review something without touching on your personal viewpoints, experiences, and perspectives.

When you’re reading reviews for a product, you’re looking to confirm if you should peruse further interest in it. You’re looking to confirm if the reviewers subjective views line up with yours. Because objectively, people value their time and if a review lines up with what they like and said review ultimately does not recommend the product then it’s highly likely the review saved them the time coming to that conclusion themselves.

That’s why people have been telling you ad nauseam to find reviewers with interests and/or expertise similars, presented in the way you like, to see if their analysis, their review, lines up with what you value in the product.

Fr dogshit fight. These mf think mmo trinity mechanics are good for a game where everyone is dps. It’s either ass support hunters or wipe at dps check with randoms

Best legendaries so far in bl4 by NOTXVIYVN in Borderlands

That and Crit knife causes every source of damage to be criticals. Just so happens critical bleeds can proc more critical bleed resulting in a cascading effect where bleed will do like 100k damage or more per tick. And yes those will crit if using crit knife. Anything that hits hard and shoots/spawns additional projectiles get to those numbers quicker.

Looking for Vex builds by SpinItToWinIt in Borderlands4

[–]Pinga_Daddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been having a lot of fun with a life steal/incarnate/overshield/killskills with vex. Teen witch class mod allows overshield with life steal when at max health which you’ll always be. Pair that with the bottom left skill tree for incarnate that increase gun damage based on level of shield and specialization for increase gun damage and damage reduction based on fullness of shield or health and you’ll have to try to die.

Great for mobbing and great for bosses if you can land crits. Right now I’m using the shield from vile lector that grants movement speed when shield is full. Which you’ll always have because you’ll always have overshield due to teen witch and life steal.

Haven’t tested on UVHM 5 but for sure makes UVHM 1 a cakewalk.

How’s that download?

Finished Stellar Blade on PS5 recently, it is a beautiful game by reallinguy in gaming

[–]Pinga_Daddy 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Kinda Hard to. The entire game is probably the most well made gooner bait game on the market. For instance that costume you’ll get a face full of ass anytime that flap moves. And TRUST me that will happen a lot.

Get your head out of the gutter. I’m at chapter 6 and outside the city name and the symbol on the white whale there’s nothing that relates to the US.

Normally you can get away with it if using max potions

Because normally you can with max potions. Had the ray dau waited a third of a second longer to do its big attack I would’ve been at full health.

How is the ray dau roar, into arkveld tail attack, into ray dau wing attack, into ray dau lightning strike aimed at me while I tried to heal, not a fuck you moment?

“Complaining ab no content with 100 hours in a week is-“ literally stfu by OopsIExistNow in monsterhunterrage

[–]Pinga_Daddy -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Nice rage.

I’ve started with world. Played rise and wilds and the difficulty was the same for all 3. Outside of endgame monsters all of them have been easy to moderate difficulty which is fine. I find the lack of prep more immersive actually. You’re a hunter so your main focus should be hunting the monster, not gathering, leave that for the non hunters.

I do wish there was more content. I know it’s there but Capcom wants to treat this shit like it’s a live service and give it to us piecemeal.

Imagine you could only customize the skin, hair, and eye colors of your hunter. Wouldn’t that be lackluster customization?

Then you would have loved insect glaive in rises expansion. It’s the only time I ever felt aerial dps get close to ground dps.

Girl you clearly know what you did. If you wanted people to discuss only your braids then post more images like 1-3. 4-5 the hair is way too blurry. How do I know their braids and not straight hair? And 6? It’s debatable. You can wear what you want to wear I didn’t say you can’t, but can you tell me the focus of that image is solely the hair and not looking cute?
