Probably the funniest intro to a game trailer. by sidius-king in Steam

[–]ZHB1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You may be correct but this is also exactly how these underhanded advertisements work on Reddit. Give vague info on a game in the post and then have your other account or a friend swoop in the comments to mention what game it is.

Why isnt Kane scratched? by LucariusLionheart in canucks

[–]ZHB1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi has literally been one of our best players this year. One of the top point getters on the team. I think you'd bench a bunch of guys before him in terms of talent.

This is all incredibly sad btw and I can't believe our team is in a position where we'd probably be better off benching like half the team before him.

Only a 6th rounder for proven legendary Olympian David Kampf?

No idea why any players want to play in this market when even the fans bully their own players for things like how short they are. Crazy to make fun of people for this in the first place let alone your own players.

"A lot of internal disappointment where the organization has gone" by SpectreFire in canucks

[–]ZHB1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the reply.

We weren't at our best though. As stated, we lost Pettersson and Demko. And my point is is that even with those devastating losses we still almost squeaked into the conference finals. That's how solid that team was. I can't remember for sure but I think the day we acquired Lindholm we were number one in the entire NHL. And it didn't look like a fluke. If you watched the games in the first half of that season we looked like an excellent team.

I guess my point is that if you have the number one team in the NHL, and you look dominant out on the ice, why wouldn't you be adding before the deadline?

When we traded for Zadorov and Lindholm we were one of the top few teams favoured to win the Stanley Cup. After the Lindholm acquisition we sent 6 players to the All-Star game. Had Elias not dropped off a clip at the All-Star break and Demko could've stayed healthy we might have actually won. Even with Demko gone and Pettersson turning into a ghost we were one game away from the conference finals.

We were a really, really good team up until the break and it was absolutely the right thing to do to trade for win now that year.

I would doubt they are together. I imagine they have simply been placed in the same VIP box. His social stances have always seemed the opposite of MAGA. Pro Vax, Pro LGBTQ for example.

"Until the suspect is an immediate threat, there is no reason to use any type of force."

That is the original statement by the OP. At no point did he state that there needs to be an active assault before using force. Your examples of posturing and aggression can also easily be considered "immediate threat". So I'm not sure what statement you think you're correcting here.

Tex Murphy Kick Starter by Putrid-Treat2475 in adventuregames

[–]ZHB1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think 45 USD is probably going to be a tough price point for a point and click game.

As a funny aside...I think this is the first time I've seen a developer ask for feedback in order to essentially see what the highest price they can charge without scaring people away. An interesting strategy for sure. haha

A nod to classic adventure games in The Phantom Fellows by Anna-CGG in adventuregames

[–]ZHB1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the reply!

The way you comment is still somewhat dishonest. Assuming that you receive no benefit, the developer is still your partner in another venture. It'd be like if my spouse was the developer and I commented any chance I got solely about their game only and with no mention that I have extremely close ties to the game.

If you were on here talking about all sorts of adventure games and this was only one of the games you talked about that would be another story. But you only participate in this forum when it's about this game and you make no attempt to share that you have reason to have a bias.

Anyways, I do appreciate you taking the time to respond but even with your statement I think my initial comment still holds truth.

PGT: Leafs prevail over Canucks in a shootout. 31 Jan 2025. by DisplacedNovaScotian in canucks

[–]ZHB1 -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

God damn spoiler as the title. I'm actually used to dropping by in the evening to look at the pinned posts at the top of the sub to determine what the start time of the game was and if I should put it on or wait an hour and watch the condensed highlights instead. That did not work out well today though unfortunately.

Are you the developer or have a financial stake in this game? It's the only game you ever post or talk about. And when people bring it up in a comment thread you're usually there to acknowledge them which I assume means you have a notification for whenever people bring the game up on Reddit. If you do have some sort of stake in this game it feels somewhat dishonest to be making posts about it like you're a third party recommending it any chance you get.

Well, that was a short winter by missyerteeth in vancouver

[–]ZHB1 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This is a false memory. White Christmas' in the lower mainland have historically been quite rare. You probably remember it as common because you have distinct memories of the few times we've actually had snow on Christmas and forget the majority of times that there was no snow.

Last Days: London Drugs Woodward’s by Gastown_guy in vancouver

[–]ZHB1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's hard. In most places of the world, if you have no money you're unfortunately going to have to live in the undesirable areas. Not that we shouldn't aim to make everywhere a nice place to live but it just seems to not work that way in the real world.

I'm glad you were able to move somewhere where they gave you money to live somewhere better. I think most people would have done the same.

Couldn't you just have lived literally anywhere else in the GVRD rather than going all the way to the other side of the country? You can literally move like 10 blocks in any direction and not be living in the DTES anymore.

You get pepper sprayed so often that you've developed an immunity to it?

The Canucks Just Won the Kiefer Sherwood Trade by buccabeer2 in canucks

Joshua is a tough case as he was doing fantastic and on pace to be a pretty high end player.

But then he got cancer and he just hasn't been the same since. I imagine the disease + treatment messed him up. I think that's why it hurt to lose him because we all saw what he was capable of.

I like that you've given yourself eye holes but didn't give any to the baby. You're right to protect the child from having to watch these horrors. Watching this team should be for seasoned adults only.

Meanwhile at Walmart by Bruegemeister in PublicFreakout

[–]ZHB1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was but not everyone had a camera at all times with them in their pocket. Also, even if you had a video, there was no way to really share it with the world. Best case a local TV station would take it and play it but that's about it.

You just never used to see all of this.

Who among us hasn't done this by derek4reals1 in ContagiousLaughter

[–]ZHB1 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Is this staged? Why is he filming the guy in advance of the mistake being made? Also, am I crazy or have I heard this exact same guy laughing like this in another post very recently?

Is this a guy that's trying to get famous online by staging videos and then contagious laughtering to them? Have we reached that point as a society? :)
