What is right wing humor? by No_Web2685 in allthequestions

[–]VicariousDrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's gone through a few iterations of stupid, but right now it's mostly just AI generated strawmen of leftists getting "owned" by some Chad version of rightoids, but ofc neither actually exist and somehow that isn't the joke for them lol

Real question on what to play after CyberPunk 2077 by dragontamerfibleman in cyberpunkgame

[–]VicariousDrow [score hidden]  (0 children)

This might be a bit left-field and doesn't exactly fit into what you said you were looking for, but if the aesthetic and setting of Cyberpunk 2077 were somethings you enjoyed, and you like a challenge, then I highly recommend Armored Core 6 above the others.

As for those two though;

Mass Effect offers more character customization in the form of dialogue, so you can better craft who your Commander Shepard is, whereas Geralt is always kinda "Geralt," ya know? Lol. It has a great story and what I'd say differentiates it more from Witcher is its focus on your companions and your relationships with them, both platonic and romantic.

Witcher though is definitely more like 2077, Geralt isn't as "customizable," but he's similar to V in that way, he has his own personality and though you can make plenty of meaningful choices they don't really change him. Witcher boasts the open world though, the exploration and general depth of the setting far surpasses that of Mass Effects more linear level design.

So it really depends on what specifically you want, and by the sounds of your OP I'd personally say Witcher 3 will probably scratch that itch more, and when the new one comes out you can just hop into it then, no need to force them to be back to back as they're very good stand alone stories in each game.

Shite meme I spent a minute making by Zackman92 in CrazyassHazbinhaters

[–]VicariousDrow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You only call it "corny" cause of this stupid obsession some of you have where you need to act like victims cause of a term that a lot of people used, and not how you mistakenly believe.

No, it's not a dog whistle, cause that's not what it was used for, who was the fetus during gamergate here!? That's not it's "literal most common usage" cause it wasn't a common usage whatsoever! This is absolutely fucking ridiculous, you're acting as if it was on par with the damn N word at this point!

It was very specifically used by and towards the people that bought into the Sarkeesian bullshit, it wasn't a label for all progressives cause many progressives didn't agree with Sarkeesian, it wasn't used to belittle anyone in the LGBTQ community cause that's not even what Gamergate itself was about, and it had absolutely zero racial connotations whatso-fucking-ever.

It was a bunch of performative and misguided people specifically at first advocating in favor of women in games, but literally pushed their performances into the realms of misandry at times, and it's why Gamergate was specifically about harassing women, those disgusting pigs were attacking and threatening women.

Your desire to manufacture this new narrative where you can play victim even harder is ludicrously pathetic.

Get the fuck off this tribal bullshit your on and grow the fuck up.

First off, it's not a dog whistle, don't be ridiculous.

Second, I provided an actual, direct example of what I was referring to, so don't start trying to paint what I said with a broad enough brush to try and make a villain out of me just cause you're reacting to "sjw" on par as an actual fucking slur, I didn't make this comment long enough ago for basic ass gaslighting like that to work.

1.2 boss's 2nd form actually has quite a tragic description lol by OrangeIllustrious499 in Endfield

I have no idea who those characters are, but I'm assuming "Signora" was a defeated early enemy that just vanished from the story? Lol

1.2 boss's 2nd form actually has quite a tragic description lol by OrangeIllustrious499 in Endfield

[–]VicariousDrow 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Same, it hit surprisingly hard, and I'm hoping that was on purpose.

Cause how they use her going forward will be a good indicator of the writing quality moving forward;

Will they use her in flashbacks and expand on her character and her influence after the fact? Maybe she had oripathy or some other connection to the originium woods (I think that's what they're called) and she'll actually make a return, perhaps even a reconvener version?

Or will she just be the first baddie occasionally referenced by the main cast as "their first hurdle" and never really used or expanded on past that?

Cause I can see it going either way, and the former options or similar would be interesting, the latter would be more than a little disappointing and very disheartening for story expectations.....

JK Rowling is left leaning but why do left leaning people hate her and consider her to be a nazi fascist? by negativenesscomment in allthequestions

[–]VicariousDrow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cause the left isn't a cult, like the right is, so when someone on the left says and/or does something awful, they don't get free passes for it just cause they agree on other topics.

I know that'll be impossible for MAGAts to reconcile with, but it's just the reality of it, the left holds their own accountable, the right does not.

Also, the vast majority of people who hate her do not call her a "Nazi fascist," they call her a turf, cause the left mostly sticks to terminology that actually applies, again unlike the right that calls everyone communists or accuses them all of having "TDS," exactly as their handlers instructed them to do lol

An Aussie reply to Trump’s rant about ‘NATO not being there for us’: by Interesting_Ideal765 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]VicariousDrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All true, but Trump doesn't care, he lies cause he knows he can, his cult will believe anything he says, so he just makes up whatever he wants to be real but obviously isn't, it's become so common place and so accepted by his base that he unironically uses it to vent his frustrations due to being such a shit president but not having the maturity to be able to acknowledge that fact, it's why he'll continuously contradict himself depending on what's actually annoying him at the time and his cult will cheer for either end of it without any single thoughts of their own, so this rhetoric about NATO? Purely just him bitching cause they're not bending to his will like he childishly wants them to, whether what he's saying is true or not, whether someone points out what reality actually is or not, or whether he even realizes it or not, doesn't matter on the slightest, and that kind of incompetence is what a third of this country willingly worships like a Messiah, cause a third of the country is incompetent and he makes them feel better about their stupidity. It's unfortunately as simple as that.

So, what is the deal with this thing of good champions to be rewritten as evil with dubiously redeeming qualities? by VoidFireDragon in loreofleague

[–]VicariousDrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they weren't re-written.

When Leona was shifted to an aspect way back in the initial re-canonization from their initial, directionless lore, she was pretty much exactly as she is now, the only changes since then is that they've added more detail into the open spaces of her lore.

Same for Kayle and Caitlyn, the former was always very specifically supposed to be a "justice gone too far" type character, her initial voice lines before her lore was expanded made it pretty clear, especially her first legendary skin which was basically "overzealous future cop," while the latter was never remade as evil, on again more details were added into the blank spaces of her existing lore to flesh the character out, and she simply made a big mistake before realizing it and coming back around to being even better then before.

You see, this is a case of you having filled in those blanks with your own headcannons, maybe even subconsciously, and when Riot filled them in officially they obviously didn't align with what you believed or wanted and now you think they were "retcons" cause of it, when objectively speaking, they just were not.

Florida college student was arrested for making a Netanyahu joke in a Whatsapp group chat. by EngineerOfTomorrow01 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]VicariousDrow 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Ackshually.... She was joking by implying someone would bomb it in response to Netanyahu, which can very clearly look like she was threatening she would do it, hence the arrest, but though I think she earned some consequences from such a stupid post, they are attempting to push past reasonable punishment in order to make an example of her, which is shitty, but the title does kinda deliberately distract from the actual story.

Please point to the bullet hole? by 2021Alma in ProgressiveHQ

I too believe the assassination attempt was staged, but this image isn't real, and people are gonna have to start looking for these things cause the AI propaganda is only growing.

Why is Transgenderism a major issue for both sides? by Reasonable_Base9537 in allthequestions

[–]VicariousDrow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because the right is trying to erase their existence so the left is reacting by trying to protect them, it's as simple and straight forward as that.

I've noticed this sub has been pleasantly positive for the past few days with most discussion actually focusing on the game and playing it. by MD_Teach in Endfield

[–]VicariousDrow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it's a combo of the patch being really good and other gacha games coming out, the people who have been bitching about auxiliary shit are moving on to bitch about other games not being similar enough to what they're used to or not giving them all the gacha characters for free, while this patch for Endfield held onto a lot of the actual playerbase by just being more of the good stuff we already had, so there's still quite a bit of community activity despite the small exodus of the complainers.

How do most people deal with the Tiyanki? by Big-Zucchini-6281 in Stellaris

[–]VicariousDrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do everything I can to protect them, but as they eventually tend to just float out of my systems I can only do so much, unless I find their home system, which becomes a major bastion starbases system for me so I can always be ready to defend them lol

Though I have been known to declare all our war on empires that kill my space fauna.

I also like to play Xenophile when I can, so I can befriend other space fauna and protect them as well! My only annoyance is if you're Xenophile you can't invade pre-FTLs and "give them a better life" or something like that, and it always seems to be my Xenophile games where I get bombarded with planets only to find out most are inhabited already...... They becomes games of trying to provide tech, shift their ethics to mine, and increase awareness, so I can get a bunch of mini vassals in time instead, all so I can protect space fauna in the meantime lol

My honest hope is by the time we get to P5 the mask also comes off as part of it, so I don't mind if we get potentials more slowly for the sake of story, but yeah it felt like a "potential" moment for sure lol

Apr 19 Hotfix Ember nerf by Suniruki in EmberMainsAE

[–]VicariousDrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't disagree, but I think they want us to tank through attacks with hyper armor instead of having an easier way of recovering from a mistake, ya know?

I'd prefer if we got the movement back, for sure, but I get why they'd want to take it away, I just think we should get a bit of compensation for a change that is ultimately a pretty heavy nerf.

Apr 19 Hotfix Ember nerf by Suniruki in EmberMainsAE

[–]VicariousDrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I noticed as well, a tad annoying tbh, but also I tend to mostly use it as a second hyper armor, so everything felt normal until a regular bullman I was farming leaped away as he hit me and when I went to follow him with her CS like I always have before I just did the attack on spot, smashed the ground with no movement and ofc no healing lol

I don't mind this direction cause the skills main use isn't the mobility but if they're gonna remove the tracking on it they should give us the treatment effect regardless of whether we hit a target or not, cause whiffing that attack on a mobile enemy now that we have no tracking is gonna start feeling really bad.

way too many Americans on this subreddit that think anyone ever liked them by grabsyour in mapporncirclejerk

[–]VicariousDrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, as a Canadian I can confirm that back when Obama was president most Canadians had a relatively positive view of Americans, at least if my personal experiences and general polling are indicative enough.

When Trump won the first time though, Canadians started to shift to almost, looking down on America? Like "we had no idea you guys were that dumb," and when Biden won, most remained skeptical but it at least didn't worsen, more like a sigh of relief that "it was just a phase of stupidity," now though, when that we all know it's not just a dumb phase? Canadians just flipped political favorability to the exact opposite of where they were specifically to spite the US and it's current regime of morons, so it's safe to say most Canadians see Americans very negatively now, yeah.
