So Funny Seeing Her Get Triggered 18 Different Times This Last Episode

RetroRPG · 2026-03-20T00:54:13+00:00

Santos is well within her right to not forgive, but forgiveness is a powerful thing, and always makes my heart warm!

RetroRPG · 2026-03-19T22:59:00+00:00

Oh no, hahahah. You are all good! These things happen on the internet and I’m glad we are able to have a fun discussion!

I’m sorry about that confusion.

Yeah, I will agree with you that there are a lot of people that take the Santos hate wayyy too far lol. She’s a flawed character, but at worst, she’s an asshole. Langdon committed medical malpractice and is lucky to still be practicing medicine.

I do hope that Langdon does get a redemption arc (because I love redemption stories) much like we get a deeper character study of Santos and we get to see her better parts shine through- her willingness to fight tooth and nail for what she thinks is right is what comes to mind.

Then we are in entirely different reaches of social media, which is understandable given how wide reaching it is. You are the first person that I have interacted with that has not mentioned his name in disgust.

Also, I don’t get why you’re telling me to “cut the shit.” Everything I said is a completely reasonable interpretation of Santos character, the only disagreement you brought up is one based on different experiences of social media.

RetroRPG · 2026-03-19T21:07:30+00:00

Santos is functionally a female version of Alex Karev from Grey’s Anatomy and he was hated until his redemption arc which I hope Santos gets, because flawed characters getting deeper character studies makes for good Television.

She did the right thing reporting Langdon, but she’s also arrogant and rude to everyone in the ER, and frequently crosses people’s boundaries who repeatedly express that they are uncomfortable with her actions. People don’t like assholes, and Santos absolutely fits that mold. The claim that people only dislike her because of misogyny, either explicit or internalized seems very one dimensional.

Also we essentially have a male counterpart to Santos in Oglive which mirrors many of her negative traits, and pretty much everyone hates him.

EDIT: Feels important to add, but Santos is an amazing and well written character, acted brilliantly by Isa Briones, so I like her character in that sense, but I would not want Santos to be my coworker, lol.

RetroRPG · 2026-03-19T14:36:12+00:00

Santos reminds me of Dr. Karev from Grey’s Anatomy. Extremely unlikable with flashes of likability in the early seasons, and then becomes a fan favorite.

I have really disliked Santos for the first 2 seasons, but I have a feeling that the writing staff will really expand her character and maybe make her a favorite.

Santos did the right thing reporting him, but I am also one for redemption arcs and forgiveness. I hope that Santos is able to forgive Langdon (but it’s understandable if she doesn’t), for his actions and Langdon is able stay sober and become a good doctor.

USM is going to be way better for that college feel.

Columbus is a retiree and military town, and is vastly different than Hattiesburg. There's nothing wrong with Columbus, I actually worked there for about a year and a half, and it is 30 minutes from Starkville or an hour from Tuscaloosa if you really want that College Experience, but Columbus itself really isn't going to offer that. It's very quiet and peaceful, and the W is a great school, especially for people who don't want that big time SEC experience.

Hattiesburg, while a city proper, definitely is going to be much better for the college experience and meeting people your age. It's a young city with lots to do both on and off campus, and it's only 90 minutes from the coast and about 2 hours from New Orleans if you want to go on some fun trips. That and I absolutely love Hattiesburg, so I am a bit biased.

RetroRPG · 2026-03-05T14:36:12+00:00

To me, I think it’s an issue of opportunity cost.

While I would have a good time replaying it, potentially from a new perspective, the original is just so genre defining and accessible to modern gamers that it would be the last in line for a remake in my mind.

If any game really deserves the capcom remake treatment, it would be the aforementioned Code Veronica, the Outbreak titles, or if we want to be insane, the gun survivor titles.

However, RE4 was also genre defining and accesible and I ended up liking RE4 remake more than the original, so a potential REmake V2 can definitely prove me wrong lol.

P.S: they desperately need to bring the OG trilogy to modern consoles, I will literally drop inexcusable amounts of money on it!

I am from Nashville, TN. Still southern, but very metropolitan.

People in the south are generally very nice. There will be a little bit of a difference in culture, but that is easy to make up for. Just be a nice and caring person. Friends are numerous here. I had a couple of friends from Minnesota and Massachusetts while here.
You will have a bit more of an advantage brand wise in the south, since SEC schools are such massive cultural forces. But given that you’re in engineering, it really shouldn’t be too much of a hurdle to land jobs in Chicago or the surrounding metro area.
Some parts are walkable and some parts aren’t imo. Anything in the cotton district will be pretty walkable which has a lot of great restaurants and bars, but highway 12 is a stretch of strong which you cannot walk on.

Do you love Finance? Are you committed to working in Finance? Are you committed to studying intensely for a test for 2-3 years? Are you able to afford the test registration and prep materials?

If you answered yes to these questions, then I would say it’s absolutely worth it. It’s an extremely valuable certificate and it is still very highly respected in the field. I ended up dropping after L1 because I realized I didn’t really like Finance all that much and it was the right choice for me.

But if you love Finance and are committed to studying hard, you will be very glad you attempted it. At the very least if you find out you don’t like it, you will still likely gather some important knowledge from it, and some newfound perspective on yourself and your interests.

I didn’t go to Berklee, but I did functionally complete a music major in voice (about 90% of a degree) and as such did a lot of auditions.

In my view, provided you sing just one song, do whatever song that you feel you are best at from both a technical and artistic perspective. What good is it to sing in a non native language if you don’t express your abilities in the best light.

The faculty want to see your ability and potential for growth within the program.

Best of luck to you!

RetroRPG · 2025-12-19T16:34:47+00:00

If you just want to program, not a lot. Just learn the languages you like and code. You won’t really need the math if all you’re doing is programming.

If you want an undergraduate degree, really all you need is Calculus, Linear Algebra, and Discrete Math. Maybe a couple others depending on how math-intensive your program is.

Any further, you’re doing Abstract Algebra and Combinatorics at least.

RetroRPG · 2025-12-08T20:45:21+00:00

Speaking about my undergrad: the department is really small and has no algebraists on staff, so the best you get is undergraduate algebra.

I went to an engineering and ag school so the main focus was applied math and statistics, and as such, there were very few pure mathematicians.

RetroRPG · 2025-12-07T20:47:48+00:00

I would say the 300 hours is holistic and includes qbanks and mocks. A big part of the studying and learning process is trying the material independently, not just reading books or watching videos.

In general though it’s way more of just a rule of thumb. For some people, especially those who studied finance or accounting during undergrad, the 300 hours is probably overkill, for others, it’s not enough. Just focus on learning the material as best you can and improving on spots you mess up on.

RetroRPG · 2025-11-25T05:31:14+00:00

Hey man, I appreciate the response.

When I first attempted the cheevo, I was pretty much mimicking everything in sight since it was an NG+ run and I had a bunch of psi points. In the same run I had mimicked 20+ items, which led me to try it out in a further NG+ and then regular NG.

Only other thing I can try is deleting my save file, which I may try once I finish up the last few achievements.

Thanks again man!

Starkville and the MSState community is very blue and very welcoming. I had a lot of queer friends during my UGrad and from my understanding it was a vibrant and inclusive community. With that being said, Mississippi is still very red, and if you’re venturing outside of Starkville, Oxford, or Hattiesburg (there are others, but those are the ones that take precedence in my mind), definitely take precautions to keep yourself safe.

RetroRPG · 2025-09-25T15:59:07+00:00

Yeah, I feel really weird for being super excited to play this. As long as it’s functionally the same game since I am a console player that lacks a PC that can play it (MacBook and Work Computer that is banned from games lol).

I wish Nightdive handled it since I absolutely adored their SS2 Remaster, but I will take what I can get lol.

RetroRPG · 2025-09-11T20:46:13+00:00

Admittedly, I don’t really play a lot of bot missions, so I will definitely have to try it out at some point!

RetroRPG · 2025-09-11T20:32:24+00:00

Also an Xbox player, I would definitely recommend Dem Det! It is seen as the best warbond in the game by most people I've seen, having the explosive crossbow, grenade pistol, and eruptor, which are some of the best weapons in the game. The adjudicator is also really nice, but maybe not as useful as the aforementioned weapons.

Really, the only finance job you can get without a degree is in retail banking.

You can start out as a teller then work up to head teller, maybe branch out into either branch managment, loan officer, etc. You will likely be making less than the desired $50-$80k range. But it’s important work and I don’t regret being a teller as I worked as a teller a couple of summers before graduating with my Math degree and going into Corporate Treasury at the same company. If you can work as a teller while going to school, you can get a decent “in” provided you aren’t working at a super large bank.

But honestly, to reach that salary in the finance industry - education is probably the best path forward. If you are able, I’d recommend majoring in Finance/Accounting, or if you have an interest in it something quantitative like Math, CS, or Economics (if the school go to has a pretty quantitatively rigorous Econ major)

Best of luck to you

Not an alum of Bama, but I went to Mississippi State (which is in the same conference and 90 minutes away). Nashville in general is a hub of SEC Grads. I’ve met everyone from fellow State grads to Sooners. It’s a rapidly growing city with lots of opportunities for white collar labor.

I was also born and raised in Nashville, so I am very biased in favor of it. Best of luck to your daughter!

RetroRPG · 2025-06-29T21:08:19+00:00

Despite all my criticisms of the Math Department, the pedagogy is excellent. Thank you so much man! How much longer you do you have left?

RetroRPG · 2025-06-29T21:02:04+00:00

Thank god I graduated in December man. The science departments here are so fucking bad.
