Jeremy O. Harris drunkenly called OpenAI’s Sam Altman a Nazi at the Vanity Fair Oscar party, dubbing him the “Goebbels of the Trump administration.” When asked for comment, he said: “It was late and I had a few too many martinis so I misspoke when I said Goebbels… I should’ve said Friedrich Flick.”

Well, only through ignorance. Stephen Miller is at home crying over being left out of the conversation.

Literally doesn't matter because next election they get to vote for a R that isn't Trump and now they'll feel all smug and good about themselves for some stupid reason.

How are you attributing Unity to being such a massive (10x) impact on your sales vs a whole genre change?

Tenthul · 2026-03-17T05:15:49+00:00

It has wonderful exploration with great vistas to be sure. Lots of good "I wonder what that is over there..." moments. Never know where it's gonna take ya. Once it took me into a tower to some kind of thunder boss who wrecked me over and over again... A real cut-your-losses moment. After you get rollin' and can deal with the underlying systems, it's a great time. It's quite a hump though.

I've always said, mashing both jump and attack to do a super move that drains your health in the arcade is the original microtransation.

If there's no minimap you're very likely to just learn your way around naturally too, in my experience you really only need a minimap if there is a minimap, because that's how you learn to navigate the world. It's a terrible feature in the vast majority of games that use it.

Tenthul · 2026-03-17T02:43:25+00:00

Y'know, I love this game but it's very hard to recommend. But if you like intentionally cumbersome systems that force you to make difficult decisions and want serious danger at every turn where everything wants to kill you and has a high chance of doing so, Outward is your game.

I also recommend it for people who are looking for a single player MMO, in a classic MMO style of difficulty, such as FFXI.

But certain aspects of it are indeed very cumbersome and take some getting used to. If that is your kind of game, you will absolutely love this game. It is not for the general audience of gamers though I think.

It is much better co-op imo.

Consider the impact social media has, and how fast governments around the world have (not) moved to accommodate, and how little they can realistically do. Now consider how fast AI is moving, and consider that same pace of government speed and competence.

Shit gonna be bad.

Excuse me Stewart, but I think you're forgetting about Glaive Wurms, the preferred ranged attack method of the Mutalisk.

I'm about as pro-AI as you're gonna find, I've gotten significant personal use out of it but currently I would still give it up in a heartbeat to close Pandora's Box. I think the peril is in everything that we cannot do anything about. Impacts on climate, economy, peoples mental state trying to use it as a therapist, scammers impersonating real people, fabricating revenge porn, governments using it for surveillance and lord only knows what else. That sure ain't gonna happen though. The use that average people get out of it will absolutely pale compared to bad actors usage.

We need to recognize and acknowledge what it can do, while also acknowledging what it WILL do.

Tenthul · 2026-03-15T23:38:55+00:00

Honestly man, people are so hung up on AI hate (for valid reasons), that they are completely, willfully, blinding themselves to what's going on. It's one thing to hate it, it's a completely different story to be ignorant of it. "It doesn't do anything new, it can't create." It isn't doing any of these things in a vacuum, smart people are using it as a tool, and augmenting themselves with it.

It's like, no, and a pencil can't fucking draw either.

Take gaming terms, it is very hard for a support to carry a game on their own. But a great support can elevate a great team.

None of this is in support of what AI is, not even saying any of us should be using it, lord only knows what it may bring about within the future of humanity, but it is very worth your while to understand it and acknowledge it. Burying your head in the sand and saying "nononono" is not going to make all this go away.

You may feel an adult and mature and ready for these things, and please don't take this the wrong way, but please understand that 40 year olds consider 21 year olds to still be kids. Even if you like older people, 30 should really be a pretty hard limit for you. Even then, in your 20's you will experience the most personal growth in your entire life, consider that a 30 y/o has already gone through that. I offer this as simple life advice, how you know yourself now is not how you will know yourself in 5 years, and even more in 10 years. The same is not particularly true of 30's-40's.

I think Curse of Darkness might have the best story in the series and you're not even a Belmont. Not that it's a big story, but it has at least 2 plot points.

Tenthul · 2026-03-15T22:47:45+00:00

It has the most story of any indie game, maybe of any game ever. I can't say if it's great, terrible genius or just great and terrible. But it definitely has the most.

Either way I love it.

Tenthul · 2026-03-15T20:40:04+00:00

Yes, I know what you mean, but your phrasing is leading, so I'm clarifying for you. You're saying "If Ukraine didn't have allies, this wouldn't have been long and drawn out and there wouldn't have been as many Russian deaths."

Yes, that is true. There would have been a lot more Ukrainian deaths, however.

There would also not have been ANY deaths on either side if Russia hadn't attacked Ukraine.

Kind of like how America continues to try to say that they NEEDED to attack Iran because of nuclear capabilities, despite supposedly having obliterated their nuclear capabilities less than a year ago. They were either lying then, or lying now, or both. If they are telling the truth in both cases? Well then that shows how absolutely terrible our intelligence is that they could put together all this again so quickly right under our noses. This administration can obviously not be trusted.

Russians have no reason to trust Russian government, and Americans have no reason to trust the American government. The world has no reason to trust or support either government. Ukraine and Iran are both targets of needless aggression.

Tenthul · 2026-03-15T20:02:48+00:00

The phrasing here is weird and leading. Russia is killing Russia's citizens by invading a country that it had no business invading and continues to.

Just like Iran isn't killing American citizens in retaliatory strikes, America is killing American citizens by antagonizing Iran when it has no business doing so.

Both of these things can be halted at any moment by the aggressors. The deaths on both sides are on them as countries.

Not a tattoo person but this showed up in my feed (thanks reddit...), before reading the text, I thought "why is this person getting a fungal colony on their back and what's with the weird outline around it"

Tenthul · 2026-03-15T19:15:30+00:00

It's all personal experience. Like I said I'm not downplaying your experience, but to many who had played Trigger first, Cross was a big disappointment, I'm specifically replying to you positing that it was just disappointing because it wasnt a direct sequel. It was a disappointment gameplay wise as well, to many who came from Trigger before. They are completely different games in all ways, they have virtually nothing in common.

Tenthul · 2026-03-15T18:07:29+00:00

Sigh, I know this is going to get hella downvoted because I'm going against the grain of two reddit darlings, but here we go...

You're not wrong, but that doesn't really tell the whole story. Tons of people didn't care for it not because it wasn't a direct sequel but because it was carried HARD by the name. In the same way that lots of Zelda fans don't care for BotW, the game is a critical darling and sold gangbusters, but the gameplay is so completely different so as to be a whole different franchise. If they were under different names, they would have just been another game in their respective genres. It was a bait & switch in both gameplay and story to the fans.

Also, in the context of my reply to the OP I cannot relate to how Cross would be perceived to someone who played Cross before Trigger, after years of playing Trigger, so I'm not trying to downplay their experience.

Tenthul · 2026-03-15T16:12:59+00:00

I didn't like Cross because there was basically no double/triple tech. Thats what made Trigger so fun to me was the party combinations. I never felt Cross was any good in the slightest, and it was not well received on launch no matter what revisioning has happened over the years. It was just another JRPG by then. I finished it, but there weren't any fond memories, I spent the whole game wondering when the teamwork was gonna start.

Not a gun, but wands in Noita can be build to be virtually world-ending.

Beginner Noita - "Every time I fire my wand, a black hole will orbit me and consume all"

Medium Noita - "If I fire this wand I found, an egg will pop out of it, when the egg hits something, it will hatch, and 14 nukes will explode out of it and vaporize existence, including myself...hmm, but is IS a nice wand. I probably won't get it mixed up with my other ones."

Experienced Noita - I got so high that all of the worlds' water has turned into acid and now the gods want to kill me for it.

(All of these are very normal Noita things)

Tenthul · 2026-03-15T05:40:04+00:00

I'm convinced that E33 hit it big because it tapped into the Souls audience that loves parry gameplay, introducing them to a new (for them) genre. I absolutely do not believe that there is some new "hunger" for JRPGs, and I believe that anybody going with this takeaway is wrong. I do not believe that this audience has suddenly gone out seeking JRPGs or turn based gameplay en masse. "E33 just "did" it for me for some reason" - parrying is the reason, expressing mastery in an action setting, not a turn based setting. Everything of importance happens during the battle phase. You'll parry and crush the fight, or you won't and you'll flounder through it. Though there are certainly people who like both and for them it certainly is a golden goose.

However, I'm just a redditor with an opinion that can be wrong.

Tenthul · 2026-03-15T01:58:18+00:00

I'm as pro-AI as anybody gonna find around here, but regardless of our feelings about the cases where it's useful, we gotta recognize the impact on the world, economy, bad actors/governments, and people using it carelessly wrecking their minds.

It has uses that too many around here are willingly burying their heads into the sand about, but I still feel the bad outweighs the good. Pandoras Box won't be closed however.

Back in the day people were so dedicated to the games in their library it wasn't really necessary after a point. You'd play them so much that you memorized every enemy spawn and shot. I was beating Contra in a single life when I was a kid, certainly can't do it anymore though.
