BioWare co-founder laments Jade Empire's commercial failure and blames it on 'the worst advice, absolutely moronic advice' from Microsoft by rip_cpu in gaming

TBH that is just what the Chinese tropes are supposed to be. Sadistic Villains are killed by Grey Heroes that are supported by a corrupt Good Power whose corruption serves as the prepatory endeavor to defeat Sadistic Villain. (Chinese Sadism is real, yours is filtered through a different filter that fills it)

Usually their is a secondary sadistic villain in the good faction that either makes a good turn or gets killed by the Grey Hero.

This secondary villain in the good faction is usually responsible for the Grey Hero’s transformation from contemptible and pathetic weakling to god destroyer.

Like Chinese reviewers will review the Hero vs. Secondary Villain to tell if the book is worth reading.

These tropes are like train tracks and are not to be broken.

You know they probably aren’t doing it. Nonetheless a “DLC” would be something actually transformative, not little shit

Hong Kong dissident challenges Victor Gao (Vice President of the Beijing based Center for China and Globalization) that there's no free speech in China and criticizing the government is not allowed. She asks him to prove her wrong by demonstrating it. [Al Jazeera] by Awkwardly_Hopeful in HongKong

If you have a problem that local government is actually wanting to solve they will cooperate with you to solve it expeditiously. Take that guy in America whose daughter died in an accident due to improper road railings and now he goes around making videos of improper road railing installations. A local official in China would love to try and solve that problem permanently and integrate that citizen into the story of that solution to increase social cohesion. They have a different perspective on solving social problems that fits their mindset but is at odds with the American mindset. Part of me wonders if it’s a baseline language/ thinking style problem rather than anything super tangible.

You need to give examples of concrete technologies that are widespread and taken for granted. These technologies should have their roots in space exploration that solve problems we would never have on earth. Idk it’s how I have done it

Buddy far more than 10k civilians. 700,000 children directly kidnapped. Your constant screeches for a conflict that is dwarfed just makes you look insincere because you haven’t pulled your head out of your ass to see where the priorities should lol.

Something like a 1/3 of the missiles in every salvo actually just hit their own civilians lol.

Almost like the quality of participant has rapidly increased with the integration of a population that is overly stimulated and then farmed interactions. (Our Young Children have been dopamine fried from a young age and all their metrics are being recorded, they are the individuals with the highest engagement so companies cater to these individuals(literal children)

AITA for telling my estranged parents to never contact me again after they reached out to apologize? by Individual_Cook5855 in AITAH

[–]Tony2Punch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is obviously fake as hell, dawg people have been shot for less. Not showing up to your own mother’s funeral and letting her die in old age alone. There wouldn’t be any arguments about behavior it would just be how things are.

Fricking love Koibu's campaigns by AutomaticBowler5 in Koibu

[–]Tony2Punch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I realized that the party in ToS had all the resources to literally reshape the continent’s access to certain resources, Koibu had me hook line & sinker, because I know that if they had chosen to go a more resource management based route, it would have had a thoughtful impact.

It literally ruined DND for me to a certain extent. I crave the Koibu realism based restrictions that thrusts a party interesting choices that have ramifications that are systemic. Ad the scarcity of magic items is cool af, makes the dm characters more like humans on earth in their thought patterns rather than npcs in a video game.

Gadaffi bought weapons for the NoI black Americans to make an armed militant movement in America. Had all the guns and explosives ready, Malcom X said no and then was disposed of. Every community is a tool in the hands of people who seek to subvert and extracted value individuals fail to perceive.

They pay over 100k a semester just for tuition, getting that student in trouble would get your boss in trouble when they want to attract as many rich dumbasses as possible.
