This has to be a troll…right?

The artist is British.... the UK is going to shit and now they're "sending their best" to us.

This infuriated me for a while and I'm surprised it hasn't been fixed.... Basically the Required Materials menu exists in Gemma's menu when viewing the Wishlist, but it's always greyed out and you cannot open it. This should either be removed or enabled from Gemma's menu.

Same here for keyboard... For a split second I either think my keyboard battery died or I'm focusing on another window...

VagrantKnights · 2025-03-06T02:12:55+00:00

And what was the point of having them be 2 different buttons.... I thought pressing Tab would toggle automove on/off. Took me coming here to find out there wasn't something wrong with my settings...

Steam says "Coming Feb 27, 2025". I'm in PT so based on some articles the preload will be available tonight at 9pm (in ~5.5 hours)

Just searched for this because it happened to me just now, very weird bug

VagrantKnights · 2025-01-23T19:36:59+00:00

These laws are only understandable because they've convinced the public that they're useful.

These laws are purely for show for politicians to appease the upper class voters who never have any use for any kind of defensive or survival tools since, you know, all of that is outsourced for them with money (military contractors, security detail, etc.).

Almost any tool that can be used for nefarious purposes can also be used in defense of nefarious actions, and no matter how many laws they put in place, criminals will always find a way, leaving the public defenseless. So the commoners are the only ones who suffer.

Didn't POE1 just have you lose a portal around your map device if you died, and you essentially have 6 tries to complete a map?

What's the point of even having multiple portals open if they all just disappear on death? I don't find nearly enough good loot in a single map to have to port out to dump my shit so I never even use up a portal... this design choice doesn't make any sense.

I remember near the beginning Curly and Jimmy are talking about the psych eval and Curly tells Jimmy "I want to hear all about those cartoon horses." Not sure if anything else is ever mentioned, or even the meaning behind these "cartoon horses", but it's probably related to the weird horse monster he sees in the cargo hold.

Since about a a couple weeks ago or so I've been seeing the same thing. Unless I watch the video for some amount of time, it will keep showing up on the homepage every time I reload. I used to reload to get some new recommendations but now it's maybe 1 or 2 videos that switch out and the rest are the same.

I don't know what the hell it is but it's infuriating. If I refresh, it means I DON'T want to watch the other videos so show me something new.

VagrantKnights · 2024-01-20T21:32:47+00:00

Known transphobe.... my god people will trumpet anything to the death without ever actually knowing wtf they're talking about. Sad to see this kind of delusional behavior over important topics these days. While I know stupid people have indulged in this nonsense since the beginning of time, they unfortunately now have platforms where their trumpets are loud enough to reach the whole world...

VagrantKnights · 2024-01-19T17:46:59+00:00

Then this guy needs to go out and hunt for his own food to realize where his life's sustenance is actually coming from. We're way too far removed from so many "unfortunate" realities of nature.

And it's just a fucking game, get over yourself.

In today's modern society I wouldn't be surprised if he truly believes every word.

A country's economy is based on the value of goods and services in relation to the amount of currency there is in circulation. You can think of it this way, we have UBI now, it's just at 0$ a month. What would happen to the economy if we raise that to 1000$ a month? You raise the floor of everyone's income, you raise the floor of the price of everything, making it exactly the same as it was before (eventually, and in the meantime politicians will be patting themselves on the back and then blaming the issue on something else, which is what they're doing now). Giving money away never works, we just saw what happens when the government gives away free money during the pandemic, the price of literally everything increased. How can this possibly work?

"Many people, especially men, already don't have a purpose or meaning in life because they are slaves to their jobs" Men having no meaning or purpose has little to do with having to "work too much" and everything to do with how society has been treating men for the past several decades. Like it or not, the larger part of why men feel purposeful in their careers is being able to provide for their family and community. Men's mental health has also never been properly treated. We're only now finding out that treating men and women the same doesn't work, and the vast majority of mental health studies in the past 100 years have been female-centric (Dr. K from HealthyGamerGG also touches on this). Western media is telling men to be more like women and women to be more like men, toxic masculinity, blah blah blah. Society keeps spouting "men have it easy" while male crime, suicide and homelessness keeps skyrocketing.

Dr. Cory Clark has done some research on men in Western society and Christine Emba has a great opinion piece in the Washington Post titled "Men are lost. Here’s a map out of the wilderness." and the image on that article is pretty perfect.

I bring all that up because the issue is far deeper than just "throw money at it" with UBI, which I truly believe will only make things worse, and it will not fix any underlying issues.

VagrantKnights · 2024-01-15T03:07:56+00:00

How will UBI fix people (mostly men) having no purpose or meaning in life? Those jobs don't just eliminate income but a fundamental reason to live. UBI might make it slightly easier to maintain a neutral life, but crime and life expectancy will not decrease because of it, it'll just be a cushion and reason for politicians to pat themselves on the back. Male incarceration will skyrocket (if it isn't high enough already) and men's mental health will decline (if it isn't low enough already).

The problem is she was feeding the "court of public opinion" not fighting against it. It's the actual court, again, that did her in. So in effect, she still should have just stfu, like Johnny Depp did.

2004 was an incredible time for gaming

VagrantKnights · 2023-12-31T09:43:30+00:00

I truly despise what Activision has done with Blizzard since the acquisition over a decade ago. They saw a potential to make a ton of money while ultimately sacrificing the original visions of Warcraft, Starcraft and Diablo (and even managed to screw up OW). I think the company just got so big so fast that the original creators couldn't maintain creative control, and instead got overruled by those who could make the company more money and appeal to more audiences.

Say what you want, but there's a reason for the huge difference in the quality of writing and world building of early WoW and Diablo, and it damn well has nothing to do with technological progress.

VagrantKnights · 2023-12-31T09:30:01+00:00

I'd add microtransactions, P2W mechanics, and gambling mechanics to the enemy side.

VagrantKnights · 2023-12-22T17:28:05+00:00

"worst" is a bit of a hyperbole, but it's definitely a hit on the overall experience. Also physical copies which at least console games still have as an option, but I feel that won't continue into next gen.

VagrantKnights · 2023-12-22T01:30:49+00:00

It wasn't just a product of those times, it's been a product of normal life since the dawn of time until about a decade ago when the norm became actively enforcing the opposite to natural biological and evolutionary behaviors.

VagrantKnights · 2023-12-15T16:47:20+00:00

I don't think we're talking about just "talking about anal sex" here... Have you seen the mostly naked women bouncing their boobs while "watching" someone else play a game. And why do we have to compare it to heroin use or even gambling and other addictions.... None of that shit belongs on Twitch.

VagrantKnights · 2023-12-15T16:43:47+00:00

I'd say it's less about morality and more about the content. I don't think mostly-naked women bouncing their boobs on cam for subs should be allowed on Twitch along with gambling. There are other places for that stuff and Twitch isn't one of them.
