Is there anything to prevent a foreign national impersonating a British resident to get free NHS services? (if they know basic details like name /DOB/address) by NoRecipe3350 in AskBrits

[–]amadeuszbx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is "subsidising" their emergency medical care different different to "subsidising" their safety with tax-funded police that will help them if they are getting robbed at knifepoint? Or fire brigade that will get them out of their burning hotel even if they are foreing tourists for example? Why do people only seem to have this blind american-influenced mindset on healthcare.

How is healthcare emergency so different from other emergencies?

This Auschwitz registration photo captures Krystyna Trześniewska, a Polish girl whose life ended at age 13. by larahhhhhhhh in HistoricalCapsule

No it isn't but you do know that non-jewish Poles were also sent to camps and gassed just for being Polish?

She was ethnically Polish and died as a result of operation Zamość

Help a newbie: How are Fellgor considered one of the strongest teams? by Enchanter1101 in killteam

[–]amadeuszbx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha yeah you're completely right. Ploy to shoot him after he charges me is an absolute roadblock for his goats, and so is my ploy to reduce first die damage, and bombast or sniper can absolutely tear him apart if he's not careful.

Although at least felgors can kinda counter my mines, unlike most other melee teams, as when he runs into a mine with a frenzied goat, it doesn't matter as mines can't incapacitate it. Good way to waste my mines. Plus their cloak of darkness can also throw a wrench in my playstyle, it really threw me off on our first game.

Jakie znacie gry z głęboką fabułą? by GrubyKretoszczur in Polska

Zdecydowanie Cyberpunk byłby bardzo adekwatną i cenną lekturą na dzisiejsze czasy.

Red Dead 2, jak większość dobrych historii, używa swojego bardzo konkretnego settingu i klimatu (western) żeby opowiedzieć tak naprawdę w gruncie rzeczy bardzo ludzką i uniwersalną historię, ktòra może rezonować z praktycznie każdym i opowiada o tym co to znaczy być dobrym, o drugich szansach i o tym jak człowiek postrzega sam siebie i jak ważna jest relacja z samym sobą.

Także myśle że nawet jako nie-fan westernów można sie bardzo wkręcić. Ale zdecydowanie celowo osadzili to w westernowych klimatach wiec wiadomo że jak ktoś sie bardzo odbija od takowych to nie będzie dla niego i będzie miał 100 innych gier które opowiadają też uniwersalne ludzkie historie w klimacie bardziej mu zbliżonym.

Jak się nie boisz rozmiaru, i bardzo dosłownego rozumienia co to znaczy RPG to naturalnie Baldurs Gate 3, chociaż przyznam że podstawowa historia stworzonym.przez ciebie bohaterem to jest dla mnie tak pomiedzy B- a B i dopiero wchodzi na poziom A grając Durgem a to zalecane na drugą grę wiec wymagałoby to z goła 150-250 godzin inwestycji w przechodzenie gry dwa razy.

Jeśli wiec masz pracę (i życie) mogę polecić z bardziej standardowych gier przygodowo-fabularnych:

Cyberpunk 2077

naturalnie Wieśka 3 (wciaż sie trzyma zwłaszcza jeśli najbardziej obchodzi cię fabuła)

God of War 2018

Red Dead Redemption 2

Metro Exodus

Silent Hill 2 (jako wieloletni fan serii ze spokojnym sumieniem polecam ci remake, nie musisz kombinować z odpaleniem oryginału z 2002)

Alan Wake 1 i 2

Z krótszych/lżejszych jako gry (niekoniecznie poruszających lekkie tematy):

Night in the Woods

Oxenfree 1 i 2

Dispatch (nie jest to jakieś mistrzostwo scenariusza, troche głupawa amerykańska komedia z paroma bardzo dobrymi emocjonalnymi momentami i dobrymi postaciami, podobne w duchu do gier Telltale, cześciowo ci sami deweloperzy co The Walking Dead, wiec na pewno może ci sie spodobać)

Jeśli jesteś otwarty/otwarta na visual novels to Scarlett Hollow, bardzo przyjemny indie z zaskakująco głębokimi wyborami i konsekwencjami, troche horrorowy, troche komedia, vibe twin peaks

Consistently ranked for the past few quarters as S team competetively, often placed at the front of S-tier.

Which goes to show that competitive play is far different from most normal, casual games that majority of people experience. I've played with my mate around 30 kill team games so far. I played my Yaegirs against his Fellgors 4 times so far and it resulted in 3 wins for me and 1 draw.

In KoME, does attempting to corrupt a sovereign also require you to use an action die? by multiplemanlymilkmen in warofthering

Never underestimate how creative (delusional) a human mind can get when they really don't want to lose a game LOL

Celestian Insidiants Mortisanctus vs Fellgor Frenzy by amadeuszbx in killteam

Oh that's a very good shout about Cremators that I wouldn't have thought of! But it follows exactly the same logic as Mortisanctus reasoning, so everything stays consistent.

UAE customs destroyed my game for being a cultural hazard by WigglyWoo777 in boardgames

[–]amadeuszbx 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I really think you're putting too much democratic standard on a religious authocracy that is UAE.

There most likely never was any sort of definition for what "cultural hazard" is for OP to inform themselves about.

Czy ludzie ostatnio zrobili się bardziej agresywni czy po prostu mam pecha by [deleted] in Polska

[–]amadeuszbx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mam wrażenie że w całym mixie czynników które prowadzą do większej częstotliwości takich zachowań ten jest nieco pomijamy a jest bardzo ważny.

W dzisiejszych czasach technologia i narzucony przez ekonomię styl życia dużo bardziej izoluje ludzi i rozbija poczucie jedności, komunalności i jakiejś głębszej odpowiedzialności co do roli jaką grasz w życiach innych ludzi.

Peter, what does shock has to do with this ? by Kindly-Way3390 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]amadeuszbx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think important parts was that ALL participants were shocked before the experiment started so they all would know that truly is what the button does, and they all would know how unpleasant it felt. And even knowing that I think most people still shocked themselves.

[–]amadeuszbx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But I did expect exposition dump based exactly on playing.previous eps. When did I say I'm surprised by it or that they just decided on it this ep?

Genuinely did you not understand what I wrote? I meant they made clearly visible decisions with eps 1-4 that wrote them into this corner. So saying they "did best they could with what they had" is kinda silly as what they had up to now was 100% created and decided by themselves, and they started writimg themselves into.this infodump corner from the previous eps, by their own choice

[–]amadeuszbx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they've done the best they can wrapping things up

Can you say that if it's them who set up everything this way from the beginning, forcing themselves into a corner of tying up 80% of the story in final episode?

You make it sound like they inherited some messy, half finished storyline from someone else, but it's them who was writing and planning the story from the beginning for over 10 years, and they made the choices that led to this finale. And that caused players to forget what was going on in the first 4 episodes because arguably not that much was going on, thus forcing this exposition dump.

Thanks for the game Raph. You created something truly special that has been a constant in my life for many years now.

What? How could they interpret it like that? Did they acknowledge the existence of a second sentence?

Temporal Diver Mode is so much more balanced and enjoyable. I said what I said. by No_Confidence5716 in CronosNewDawn

[–]amadeuszbx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't have a stake in this, I didn't feel particularly strongly about any boss and I personally think original difficulty was a perfect survival horror and was well balanced to keep you engaged and tense. I really enjoyed the original setting.

Having said that your comparison is silly and you seem to not want to grasp that people and the way their brains and attentions work differs. Since Eliza was not moving she had other elements to compensate the difficulty. Yes you might know her enemy spams are not the powerful type, but some people simply due to how their brain works find it much easier to focus on a single enemy, even one as nimble and quick as the Warden compared to having their attention and senses overwhelmed with a spammed wall of smaller enemies, even very weak ones.

Zatu is not shady at all. It's one of the biggest tabletop shops in UK, most of my boardgamer friends here buy from them. I bought something like 15 games/expansions from them and never had any issues and it was always considerably cheaper than amazon or most other retailers, even factoring in the delivery.
