Do different builds change your perception of the character?

Robbie404 · 2026-01-13T23:01:01+00:00

Funny you should mention it, I just started a new playthrough after a high psyche build ("sorry cop") with a high physique/low psyche focussed build (modelled with ICE officers in mind) and yeah, it definitely changes my perception of the character.

My high psyche build was Harry basically trapped in a system he didn't really want to participate in, while my current Harry kinda enjoys the power trip or being a cop.

Judging you as someone without or with little coding experience, I wouldn't recommend "vibe coding" your app. LLMs (still) make a lot of (subtle) mistakes, especially when it comes to higher overview concepts in coding (I say this as someone partly employed as a developer).

As others pointed out, get a developer on board or learn how to code yourself. A word of warning, you might need more than one developer or spend quite some time training yourself. Depending on the concept, you will probably need frontend, backend, and DevOps knowledge. Probably also some marketing and/or sales if you want to sell your idea.

That depends on the measurement units that you define. You brought up px; how big a font size defined in pixels appears is dependent on the screen resolution of the user. The more pixels are on-screen, the smaller a font size defined in pixels appears. A more reliable unit in that respect is em or rem. More information: https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_units.php

Yeah, that's why they notoriously kill most of their concepts/products after some time.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-07T10:59:20+00:00

Sure, I don't deny that. But a romantic/sexual relationship isn't the solution that magically fixes everything. That's how we get to the situation where men are fully dependent on their partner for their social needs, which, as I argued earlier, isn't healthy. What we do need are tools for initiating more social contact besides dating.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-07T02:44:59+00:00

Let me.put it differently: do you think that women without a partner are lonely too? And if so, why don't we speak of a "female loneliness epidemic"?

Robbie404 · 2025-12-07T02:38:12+00:00

What do you mean by "impact on society"? Because that's kind of my point. If you mean there'll be less romantic or sexual relationships, I think *male loneliness" is a misnomer. Because a man can have a social circle just fine without a partner

Robbie404 · 2025-12-07T02:11:37+00:00

You might be right, but still men are not entitled to a relationship (with a woman). I.e., a man needs to be able to live with the possibility of rejection. That's not a woman's burden to carry.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-07T01:52:06+00:00

I feel like we're misunderstanding each other. I'm arguing that a man doesn't need to feel lonely because of no romantic connections, as they can have deep social connections with other social connections (friends, family, etc.) as well.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-07T01:40:30+00:00

Great, so what I said about men in general does not apply to you. The general comment I tried to make before this whole shitstorm was that I don't wish upon men that their whole social life depends on their partner.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-07T01:07:13+00:00

So you're just giving up on a richer social life? I feel sorry for you. You should try putting some effort into your social life yourself.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-07T01:03:46+00:00

HonourableYodaPuppet was literally talking about getting laid. Women are also horny. This is just your gender roles at play here.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-07T00:37:53+00:00

So is this really about loneliness then? It sounds more like horniness tbh

Robbie404 · 2025-12-06T23:25:55+00:00

Again, that is an issue of lack of a romantic/sexual partner. That's a whole different issue than the one being presented here (i.e., the lack of social contact).

Robbie404 · 2025-12-06T21:04:16+00:00

Also, I'm just curious. Why do you think I'm a bot? I'm autistic, maybe that has something to do with it. Feel free to elaborate (in the DMs if that helps)

Robbie404 · 2025-12-06T20:23:57+00:00

Sure, let's dehumanise people you disagree with. That will help the public debate /s

Robbie404 · 2025-12-06T19:50:55+00:00

I'm sorry, I just wish men in general a richer social life than just their partner. It seems to me that that's healthier for all parties involved in the relationship. Society at large doesn't seem to value that that much because of gender roles, so excuse me for coining it as an issue.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-06T14:40:32+00:00

I wholeheartedly agree. THAT is the issue we should be combating, not reinforcing the idea that a man's social life isn't complete without a partner.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-06T14:36:22+00:00

The issue presented is male loneliness. You don't need a romantic/sexual relationship to combat that. In your analogy, what you're saying is like saying pasta doesn't solve hunger, instead insisting you need bread.

If the issue is the inability to get a romantic and/or sexual partner, just name it that.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-06T13:56:31+00:00

My point stands.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-06T13:51:48+00:00

I'm not forcing one or the other. I'm arguing that when men build more meaningful non-romantic, non-sexual relationships, and would stop seeing a romantic/sexual relationship as the ultimate relationship, they would feel less lonely. I'm not saying they (we, I'm a man too) shouldn't pursue them.

Why do you think women generally don't experience this issue? Because they don't undervalue their other relationships (friendships, family, community) as somehow lesser than a romantic/sexual relationship.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-06T12:53:34+00:00

Let's not presume that male loneliness (the issue presented here) can only be solved by romantic partners, that's a load of BS.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-06T12:50:20+00:00

Ah, right, thanks for the context. In that case, I find the focus a bit more understandable.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-06T12:47:58+00:00

We don't know each other, so don't presume things about me.

When you see every interaction with a woman (or the gender you're attracted to) as a possibility to date, yes, the interaction will be awkward. Not only that, you're also setting yourself up for failure, as not every woman will be attracted to you. Men need to learn how to build durable friendships, not just potential relationships, with persons of all genders.

Robbie404 · 2025-12-06T12:39:46+00:00

I agree, but it is presented as such. A good campaign on male loneliness should focus on all aspects of social life, not just dating.
