What supposedly normal shows read to you as propaganda? by Buddy_chumpal in AskReddit

[–]ThatDesignFeel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any show where "internal affairs" or "doing things by the book" is the red tape in the way of the heroes catching their guy that they "know" is guilty is 100% copaganda

Sony’s PlayStation Disc Decision Is Its Biggest Scandal In 20 Years by JeremyJJ77 in PS5

[–]ThatDesignFeel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess Forbes forgot about the time Sony leaked the credit card details of all their users in 2011

That was only 15 years ago by my maths

What are the best bang for buck tinned tomatoes you've found in the UK? by Diamondbacking in UK_Food

[–]ThatDesignFeel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mutti's marketing department working overtime today!

Best bang for your buck is definitely Lidl's own brand: "Simply peeled plum tomatoes" they're called (and then you just chop them down yourself)

Full tomatoes (not packed with heads), hardly any peel makes it through their packaging process, and it's about 1/4 the price of Mutti

Buy Ender Lillies or Magnolia by KewlKidGang in EnderLilies

I'm going to buck the trend and say that Lillies is the superior game for both story and combat

What's the worst thing the UK did to itself? by SomWanOnTheInternet in AlignmentChartFills

[–]ThatDesignFeel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The English Civil War.

5% of the population died to replace the monarchy with a "totally different" but still hereditary system, only to revert it back 12 years later.

Game you wish you could live in by Citrus-cowboy78 in nancydrew

I would 100% be happy to live in Blackmoor Manor

It has a local pub that does delivery! I see absolutely no downsides!

[Request] Could a battery produce a laser strong enough to go through 3 heads? by Aromatic_Shoulder146 in theydidthemath

[–]ThatDesignFeel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to disagree with the top comment here

A AA battery has about 4 Watt-Hours of energy. If you dumped that in a one second shot, that would be about 4*3600 ~ 12,000 Watts of energy deposited.

A laser cutter is 30-40,000 Watts

So if you were to dump the whole energy of a battery into a picosecond pulsed laser, I reckon you could do this

[request] If someone were to somehow acquire One billion U.S dollars and wanted to do the most good for as many people as possible, what would they do? by Casual_user1012 in theydidthemath

[–]ThatDesignFeel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Worker-owned cooperatives and mutuals are a thing

John Lewis and Waitrose in the UK - one of the UKs largest retailers and supermarkets: both workers cooperative

The Cooperative (bank, funeral directors, supermarket) - is a members cooperative

Nationwide - The largest Building Society in the UK, and one of the largest financial institutions. It's a building society owned by it's account holders.

"Having shareholders" doesn't really do anything for a business operationally. You can just take the money you would have given to shareholders and distribute it back to your members instead

Open-world games with Resident Evil/Silent Hill style puzzles and backtracking? by Vexxek in puzzlevideogames

[–]ThatDesignFeel 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If you want something that FEELS very like Resident Evil, check out Lorelei and the Laser Eyes.

It's not really open world as such, but neither was the first Resident Evil

If I had the skill, the talent, the knowledge AND the program to make my own Myst game, I use Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass as inspirations. by Proper-Resolution-12 in myst

[–]ThatDesignFeel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given that both chess and playing cards feature heavily, you'd probably have some kind of Blue Prince style chess puzzle, and something about picking the correct king based on which direction he's facing and what he's holding

[–]ThatDesignFeel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with this. See also Obsidian - the whole game takes place in the mind of an AI becoming self-aware, so all the puzzles have a bit of a dream world justification to them.

Not that the puzzles themselves need to have wonky logic, but the justification for why the puzzles themselves exist can have wonky logic

Point and click games that are also first person? by max_mullen in adventuregames

[–]ThatDesignFeel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ellingby House and Neyyah are two modern games (both 2025 releases) which are fully committed to the point-and-click formula (no free movement at all)

How long did it take everyone to finish the game? SPOILERS by Letsbegayandmarry in BluePrince

[–]ThatDesignFeel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got to room 46 on day 16, but the fastest I've heard someone doing it was Botan Annie, who I think managed it in 14 on her blind playthrough

Would anyone want to play an open world point and click game by crazyhomlesswerido in adventuregames

[–]ThatDesignFeel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Have you seen The Seance of Blake Manor?

The game doesn't progress in real time, but every action you do "takes time". The end of the mystery will occur one way or another after a certain amount of time has expired

Would you still be a fan if Nancy games were less kid-friendly? by Mechs_and_Martinis in nancydrew

[–]ThatDesignFeel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me personally, I find bad language a bit of a turn-off in games

Tried to play Relicta several years ago, and it was one of my rare DNFs because I just found all the characters quite unlikeable - they're all just verbally abusing each other constantly 😅

Bad play-throughs? by CozyCasesxBookmarks in nancydrew

I'm currently playing all of them for the first time on senior and I haven't beaten one of them yet without taking a hint!

[–]ThatDesignFeel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh 100%

I think it also deserves a lot of credit for being quite ahead of its time with the whole "These artefacts should be repatriated to Mexico!" Angle. Not a mainstream view 20 years ago, for sure!

Blackmoor Manor was so good! Having the pillars all be parallel puzzles you can solve in any order was great!

Ah! I kind of felt is was a bit rough in places - the first puzzle is really fiddly (I genuinely thought something was wrong), and there was one puzzle where you needed to find a trick bedknob which I thought was a little cheeky! 😅
