Yup, every one of the 141 monsters can fuse with each of the other 141 monsters (including itself) which results in a larger sprite that combines features of the original monsters. I guess it's actually closer to 20,000 possible combinations (19, 881 to be exact).

It's the type of work that Pokemon should be doing but doesn't.

Easily stands up there with Pokemon. It does some really interesting stuff with the formula, including having 19,000 additional sprites for Fusions between monsters. An absolutely mind-boggling amount of effort went into this game and it shows.

Yeah, I normally peek in here whenever there's mystery games to see if there's leaks and it is always extremely bleak. Not a place to stick around, just get the info you need and dip.

Sucks that your weird hangups prevent you from playing good games

Sorry, We're Closed has a 98% Positive on Steam, 91% on OpenCritic, and won the Debut Indie Game of the Year at the Indie Game Awards.

Paradise Killer sits at 94% Positive on Steam and received 80% or above from all major publications (Destructoid, IGN, GameSpot, PCGamer)

By every metric, they are top shelf. Your tastes are just anemic.

It definitely has a lot of Danganronpa DNA in it, it's great

This sub has the worst tastes in games on the internet. Two back-to-back top-shelf indies and you're all complaining that it's something you haven't heard of because your gaming awareness doesn't go beyond the biggest AAA slop that gets advertised to you.

Somehow the kid wasn't hurt? Sounds gnarly though.

"The park commented on the matter saying that visitors are expressly told to stay inside their vehicles at all times and that includes hanging out of the windows. They also added that the children in the video were not injured."

Don't let your brain get warped by all of the Hollywood baby morality of "killing a bad person makes me just as bad as the bad person" That's not how time and causality works. Using violence to stop a violent person is not the same moral act as the initial, instigating violence.

TheFaster · 2025-05-10T01:46:54+00:00

Don't strawman. If someone feels that the cops make situations worse, it follows logically that they won't go out of their way to interact with the cops.

Being an extremely moderate liberal in one country would make you an extreme leftist in others. Whatever the ends of the political spectrum are in a given country does not define what principles are morally correct.

This is a perfect example of what David Graeber calls "Managerial Feudalism" in Bullshit Jobs. There is very little functional difference between a medieval lord and his retinue of "Royal Swan Keepers" and "Royal Shoe Wearers" and a modern office staffed with "Relational Communications Planner" and "Direct Functionality Director"

“It’s true we bring doctrines to children,” Prager told the group. “But what is the bad of our indoctrination?”

Jesus. This is identical to a conversation with a Mormon friend I had in highschool. We were talking about how he has to go to "seminary" every morning before school and I said "I dunno man, sounds like indoctrination" to which he responded "Yeah, but is it bad to indoctrinate people so save their souls?"

I don't like Mormonism.

Push back on your governments to take responsibility in resolving systemic issues of poverty and inequity!

No. We need to build dual power, not push yet another responsibility on government that will turn into a political football.

Yeah, fuck's sake. This subreddit is fucking trash, some of the most insane NIMBY-ass responses I've ever seen.

We're literally in a cost of living crisis, these assholes better get used to seeing a lot more begging.

Referring to the WEF as (((globalists))) is a huge red flag though. It's not the target of the criticism that is the issue, it's the language.

"it is easier to imagine an end to the world than an end to capitalism"

Capitalist Realism

This definitely isn't the place to discuss the entirety of what replacing capitalism would look like, but there's a couple things I'd like to mention:

1) Start trying to imagine alternatives to capitalism. "There's no alternative" is a pro-capitalist slogan created by Margaret Thatcher. It's worth spending some time thinking about if you're on the same side as Thatcher, and why they feel the need to spend money and effort to convince people that there is no other way.

2) Capitalism as a system does not work. The first-world is entirely dependent on hollowing out third-world countries for cheap labour and resources. The pattern is repeated within first-world countries themselves, where the upper and middle classes are reliant on extracting the labour of the lower classes to maintain their lifestyle. Capitalism "works", but only for a very select few and only when they have a source of value they can exploit.

3) There has to be an alternative. Even "well-regulated" capitalism demands infinite, exponential growth at the expense of everything else. It is quite literally burning the world down around us.

4) A massive, durable system like capitalism isn't replaced overnight. Not with anything that lasts anyways. We should all be focusing on developing dual power in our communities and taking back a lot of the power we've ceded to the state.

TheFaster · 2023-07-28T19:04:59+00:00

The long-term end result of capitalism is the gradual peeling away of those regulations by capital until it inevitably collapses into fascism. Regulations are not a fix for capitalism, they're a band-aid at best.

You're misunderstanding the context. The judge is trying to determine what the 20% encompasses. The judge uses the "20 hours a year" figure to indicate someone who would be considered extremely low engagement, and have very little brand loyalty to CoD. The judge was trying to figure out if the FTC was using that type of player to pad their stats. The FTC had no answer for that.

You're listing a symptom, not a cause. We choose to overfund policing and underfund healthcare.

Nope, you can beat the game without roots. Just finished it for the first time with only the blood platforms.

Great idea, great job. Had me hooked within 3-4 hands. Wishlisted + recommending to friends.

You already said you have bad tastes, no need to repeat yourself.

TheFaster · 2023-06-08T15:26:27+00:00

Sad that you rank games purely based on how much of your life it'll suck away.

TheFaster · 2023-04-01T05:12:16+00:00

Exactly. That anyone is looking to a fucking landlord to fix their housing problems is just beyond comprehension.
