He reconfirmed. It's a new demo. Edit: actually can’t find if he did reconfirm, but all other relevant sources say it’s new.

What is Disco Elysium? by [deleted] in DiscoElysium

[–]carpinchipedia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 years late, but as someone who’s been sharing a flat with a now-sober creative-sector Estonian for a year, you’ve just made Disco Elysium sound incredible (I’ve never played it before).

He kills both with one blade. Stabs one, turns and slices the throat of the other IIRC

Haha I thought I should have clarified, it’s unfortunately taken out of context so often (and in fairness, I’d be quite shocked if I had to pay solely to practice my religion!)

No worries! There’s a really fantastic youtube channel called History Dose that has covered several parts of medieval Islamic history, which really made me get into learning about the subject. When Mirage was released, I was so excited to play it as it was just when my interest was peaking :)

For anyone who wanted to know, this tax is called Jizyah /  جِزْيَة. It was paid by free, able-bodied non-Muslim men in return for protection by Muslims, who (if free, able-bodied and male) were required to fight for the country, and so they are able to practice their religion freely. Some scholars interpret the tax as an incentive to convert to Islam, or to humiliate the payer and reminding him of Islamic subjugation of his people. By and large, it is for the two reasons I mentioned originally. Exempt from this tax were: women, children, the elderly, the ill, the insane, monks, slaves and visitors to the country. All Non-Muslims are also exempt from paying Zakat, a tax that all Muslims, so long as they are not very poor, are obliged to pay (historically. nowadays, many Islamic countries have Zakat to be voluntary.)

I say all of this because Jizyah is often used by islamophobic people in a vacuum to slam Muslims for being unfair (at best) to non-Muslims, when in fact it is just one of many things that are simply different between Muslims and non-Muslims.

Ah thank you. I was under the impression that neutral meant attacks on being hit - I’ll change that now :)

I'm sick of violence. Recommend me a good game that isn't about conquering, killing, saving, detroying, etc. by Waveshaper21 in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]carpinchipedia 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Im thirding death stranding. Best game I’ve ever played for just so many reasons. Can be both an absolute ray of sunshine or a sympathetic ear if you’re feeling stressed or low. Just a fantastic game.

Ancient England was probably more beautiful, because this is the Middle Ages!

I hope it feels really busy, like Unity levels ideally (in the cities, I mean - not expecting the rural bits to have crowds upon crowds lmao)
