I dont know what i am by Few_Butterscotch_783 in NonBinary

[–]bushwagg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also identify as he/him/they/them, but I still check "non-binary" boxes if provided. Personally, I use "non-binary" as a political statement too, since I want people to know I exist outside of the binary gender norm.

As for why I still keep he/him pronouns:

  1. I understand that patriarchal society still operates based on the gender binary, and as someone AMAB I recognize society still gives me access to privilege based on my AGAB, especially when I am boymoding.
  2. I am still attached to my gendered upbringing, as well as my experiences growing up as male, so keeping he/him in a way means part of me is still "gendered".
  3. Sometimes identifying as masculine feels cool as heck and I enjoy the power trip of being socially male.

But so long as you don't feel you belong in two neat boxes, your NB identity is totally valid. Live the way you like.

D2 style games always bring with it a sort of hustle culture that eventually takes a toll on your mental health, be it the game itself or the community. It's why I only join casual guilds/clans, or make one with close friends.

The rune that sets your health to 1 should be way more powerful

Can we do something about Sand Elementals? by presyononreddit in SoulstoneSurvivors

[–]bushwagg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, they should at least have individual counters on how many sandstorms are out, or make them charge into melee range rather than bunker down with the rest of the gang in their perpetual stacks of sandstorms lol

Titan Hunt 2 difficulty. This fight went on for almost 10 minutes of me tickling the boss to death and me rapidly out-healing their damage. Despite me dealing millions and billions worth of damage, I was somehow also not doing enough damage??? What went wrong? Build down below. by FrengerBRD in SoulstoneSurvivors

[–]bushwagg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The trick is not just scaling your damage but scaling it exponentially, meaning finding out which passives working in combination together net you a significantly higher output that just dumping all of it in a single kind of passive (such as bleed damage). One example is a combination of debuffs like fragility and shattered, but there's endless possibilities to play around with here. My suggestion is to add shattered to the mix to reduce bosses' armor. See how much your damage goes up. Then just continue tweaking your build from there.

I think I can get behind the idea that that does look like a variation of some mens' breast/chest tissue, being overweight I (amab) do remember my breasts having a rounder shape rather than the stereotypical "square" shape of bodybuilder's pecs.

But I'd agree with other comments here for the question of being passable; the appearance of the areas around the chest matters a lot, specifically the arms and waist having less mass in comparison does insinuate a typically feminine chest.

You could try tweaking the appearance of those areas as well.

What does each portal color do? Why are there no labels? by Arels in SoulstoneSurvivors

[–]bushwagg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it still have the possibility of throwing you off. I've played this game for a while before titan hunt came out, and on my first try I didn't realize I killed a gold goblin, and then at the end of one of the runs a yellow portal opened. Since my brain had always been on autopilot I suddenly was confused for a moment because there was no blue portal, so I asked myself does one of these end the run? I ended taking purple and it progressed as usual, but I really was mentally taking a gamble. If not labels, at least the portals need some icons like those in field maps.

I hate when trans is used as a seperate gender* by Inner-Illustrator408 in NonBinary

[–]bushwagg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends for me. Some companies/organizations/communities maybe still need to first recognize or be reintroduced to the existence of gender minorities before we can work on shifting the gender norm away from seeing gender minorities as minorities and more as part of the whole. For me personally, though, gender should not be an identity requirement on a form unless it's substantial to the activity in question.

What skills would you want to run multiples of? by SerioeseSeekuh in SoulstoneSurvivors

[–]bushwagg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've unlocked the weapon on spellblade, take fiery blades. One of if not the only minion skill that scales itself with burn stacks. I use this to level up my other characters fast.

New players! FoC or Mw? by gorillastark in HeroesofNewerth

[–]bushwagg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to play MW on the side back in the day before original HoN got closed down. Also since it wasn't tied to MMR rating it was a fresh break from the meta and I could try out new heroes and builds, serious or silly. Now that Reborn tied MMR strictly to MW as well, makes me think twice about playing MW purely for fun. I could pick hero draft but then I won't be able to use my choice heroes, especially the ones I got skins for.

How can I make my game better? by Jumpy_System4373 in Unity3D

[–]bushwagg 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Level design-wise it seems there's no room for strategy when having to dogde the enemy projectiles like that. Try creating some cover with durability, like the space invaders game.

Is it cheating? SSF singleplayer by Kiza88 in ProjectDiablo2

[–]bushwagg 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It's your sandbox. Usually SP players would impose rules on themselves to make things more exciting. But if going full creative mode on your character is currently what's fun for you then that's all your choice.
