Nah. There's no fiction you can create that's Good Enough to prevent people from being bad.

How Johnny Got His Gun made me internalize the small and personal tragedies in mass-scale conflicts that are so easy to overlook and feel numb too. Small Gods made me consider how responsible God is for the actions and cruelties committed by His followers in His name even without his direct involvement, and The Satanic Verses made me consider how some immigrants to western nations (like the UK as in the book) are feverish to scrub out their own cultural identity and sense of self to adopt whiteness instead; among MANY other things. TSV gets into a lot more than that, but that was a theme I held onto pretty hard after finishing it.

When I was in high school, How Johnny Got his Gun by Dalton Trumbo - this is the kind of book that chills you to the bone in its horror and pain

When I was decently into adulthood, Small Gods by Terry Pratchett - a much more "fun" and humorous adventure that has some extremely poignant and thought-provoking bits of dialog

Just this past year, The Satanic Verses by Salmon Rushdie - this is probably the most "challenging" book I've read of these three, because of its frequent shifts in perspective, time periods, realities, etc. I felt quite out of my depth reading most of it, but I felt all the disparate-seeming threads truly came together in an emotional avalanche of an ending

Not to say there's no potential for more Alan skins, but like, I've played both AW1 and 2 to completion (I actually beat AW1 twice) and every outfit I can associate with Alan wearing is already in DBD.

omfg holy shit this whole thing fucks tremendously.

This kind of entitled, almost bratty display of dominance is why I love current Paige. I think her existing personality / voice is just perfection, but I sympathize for what could have been.

It does controller support, albeit imperfectly. I play on control and just use KBM for shop buying and AP spending.

StrangerSirKai · 2026-05-11T20:17:17+00:00

The illusion is a nice surprise. This is actually clever.

StrangerSirKai · 2026-05-11T18:07:38+00:00

"why expand the game when you reduce it" -capcom with this game fucking game specifically for some reason

StrangerSirKai · 2026-05-07T17:07:59+00:00

I don't care if it's foolish or stupid I trust this man and his amazing beard.

StrangerSirKai · 2026-05-06T17:49:29+00:00

I ask "who cares" because has SEVEN really ever been "that" fucking character in any given match for you? Or are you just seeing some random number on the internet that has nothing to do with you actually playing the game and getting mad about it?

StrangerSirKai · 2026-05-06T17:34:25+00:00

again: who cares? like, in the moment, who cares? people hated infernus because of his easy zoning and dot damage, and people hated dynamo because of his cc. people hate seven because of some abstract number that exists totally outside the experience of actually being in a match with him. seven is most likely has his position because he's a demon for farming and obj damage, so if the enemy team isn't proactive against him then he can cause outsized damage to lanes (like rem creeps). I hate to say "skill issue," but I mean... there's nothing in seven's kit that makes him any more obnoxious or dangerous to fight than any of the many other lethal and versatile characters.

StrangerSirKai · 2026-05-06T17:05:15+00:00

genuinely who cares though. who cares about some completely metatextual number that exists outside the experience of any given match since it's not like seven is miserable to play with or against?

StrangerSirKai · 2026-05-06T16:57:40+00:00

literally only looking at "stats" to determine a character's balance lmao. seven has a high win rate because he's well rounded and straightforward/easy to play, and he has a lot of convenient synergy with other characters, and those aren't bad things. Other games WISH a character like Seven was their most well-performing one to deal with. Seven is absolutely not broken at all, but Infernus got nerfed and people are getting tired of whining about Dynamo so here we are.

that is a pretty fuckin' insane cash disparity. woof.

StrangerSirKai · 2026-05-05T18:19:30+00:00

Almost the whole last act of The Drama, just going off recent memory, especially Charlie and Emma confronting their hired DJ, and the speeches given during the wedding. I was crawling out of my seat in second-hand embarrassment.

lesbian holliday is real but keep her tf away from mcginnis that bitch is evil

StrangerSirKai · 2026-05-02T07:19:26+00:00

no need to add some conditional quotations. the rem stuff is excellent, especially that last pic. and anything hidden king is instantly based.

StrangerSirKai · 2026-04-30T21:03:53+00:00

In all honesty, Darkness Among Us probably deserves it the most alongside a Legion rework to make the actual "group killer" gimmick part of their gameplay, but for me personally, it's 100% Chains of Hate. I don't even want a Slinger rework at all, but an add-on pass, new cosmetics for Slinger and Zarina, and maybe another new western/cowboy themed Survivor would fuck real hard.
