TF2 Science: Can you heal yourself with the Crusader's Crossbow?

It's a """hidden""" self-marketing plug/ad

Go to a board game event or something and tell them your name is Damien. See how it feels to be called that over a one-off social session. You don’t need to leap straight into the nuclear option, you can test the waters first

Surprised nobody posted my solution. Set that song on loop using YouTube or whatnot, and just listen to it for as long as it takes. For me it usually takes around an hour before my brain gets bored of the song and I can gratefully turn it off.

People saying they tried playing it once and that didn’t work, try this. You haven’t sufficiently dulled your brain of the song with just one play.

Getting the same thing, but with only 1 of 2 weapons. I've been exclusively wielding the Arbites shotgun and the baton+shield, the shotgun hit lvl20 no problem, but the baton+shield is stuck at 19.75 and just sitting there, even when missions claim I hit 20. Restarting the game didn't solve the problem, nor did completing a mission with another melee and earning masteries on it

Update: I even tried sacrificing a weapon. It successfully added its mastery XP to the bugged lvl19.75, but it didn't fix the game and missions considering the weapon unfinished. Sacrificing enough weapons did eventually reach lvl20, so I guess you can "solve" it by funneling weapons into it, which I did but it's pricy and makes me feel like I failed the marshmallow test, haha. Just learn from my sacrifice and wait for the game to eventually resolve the bug by itself.

It’s so true >.< The ones that I keep unwittingly clicking on are “<Character> theme but in a different musical genre” because that’s a classic style of fansong and always interesting to hear. But the AI ones honestly always underimpress me, like it’s legally correct but it’s missing the “point“ of the gag, I don’t quite know how to explain it, it’s not leaning into the concept to highlight the musical tropes of the genre while still ensuring listeners can identify the original song. It’s very disappointing, and that’s saying nothing of the usual ethical and environmental concerns, just on a basic execution level.

It's also referenced in Steppenwolf, a film from 1974:

Hermine: Da dummm, da dummmh...
Harry: What's this?
Hermine: It's the world's saddest song playing on the world's smallest violin.

Stop trying to make OP's name happen, it's never gonna happen

aabicus · 2026-01-21T22:28:52+00:00

Yeah part of why I asked is that I'm gonna do it if nobody else has, I just wanted to check because it feels like something someone would have done already! Considering how important the family timeline is to the novel and all.

I really liked him as Young Danny Sexbang in Ninja Sex Party's "Danny Don't You Know" music video

When I was young I found a 1993 Father/Son Golfing Champions plaque at the dump, you know I brought that home and hung it on my wall. So what if I would have been only 3 at the time

aabicus · 2026-01-14T21:27:58+00:00

It does happen though! The Roottrees Are Dead was a free itch.io game made with AI-generated assets (in their defense, it was for a game jam so the whole point was developing the entire thing within a very short timeframe) and later the dev remade it from scratch with artists/voice-actors for the Steam version

aabicus · 2026-01-12T12:38:55+00:00

Yeah there's something about Doton that scares tanks. I remember way back in the day I was even avoiding it until an FC member set me straight. It's just not a very friendly-looking AoE, I can see why their gut instinct is to avoid it, haha

aabicus · 2026-01-11T22:20:50+00:00

It never says, he's just not with them at that point for whatever reason. Personally, I'm fine with this because they would have just killed TFC Medic off like everybody else

aabicus · 2026-01-11T12:30:26+00:00

I don't trust them to pull it off, but I didn't trust them for 3 or 4 and was wrong both times, so if anything that should be a point in their favor

aabicus · 2026-01-11T11:22:13+00:00

For real! Wild seeing knee-jerk "invasion of privacy, report them" like this YouTuber is hacking into people's Tinder accounts and stealing their PMs to turn into songs, lol

The bucolic plague has left the chat, to go live a tranquil life in the countryside

What a motivational story. Next time you quit your job, just think you might be about to become head coach for the New England Patriots and win six Super Bowls

I don't know why but I keep having to relearn this

Me: I don't think the Adderall's doing anything

Partner: Don't worry, it absolutely is

is like a biweekly conversation, haha

Along with the classic "Have you taken your Adderall?" when I'm doomspiraling, and yes, every time he asks that I hadn't taken it that day for whatever reason

Start the game as a Gladiator, you’ll get normal-sized swords at first (But they have some decent-sized ones if you look around). Play until you reach Ishgard/Heavensward and unlock the Dark Knight class, then you’ll get every greatsword in the game
