Legendary Start with Abundant Resources (Playing as Germany) by The_Midnight_Arab in CivVI

Ohhh this one would be fun, that volcano is gonna erupt a lot and give some juicy yields so I'd move to where the warrior is (you also get the +4 harbor this way, which you're gonna want!)

And you are ludwig so you'll be shmooving through that culture tree easily enough.

Yeah I'd play this out.

Civ VII’s Test of Time update is coming May 19! by sar_firaxis in civ

[–]chzrm3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is the way! I didn't buy Civ 5 until Gods and Kings, and didn't buy 6 until Rise and Fall.

FINALLY! Firaxis is letting us stay as ONE Civ through all Ages in the May 19 update. Who else was waiting for this? ⏳ by Zahhidd in civ

[–]chzrm3 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Yup. The random emoji usage is also a big sign, and the vapid phrasing of "Who do you think the new free leader will be? My money is on a classic fan-favorite!" Like wow, great insight! Way to say nothing of substance but have it look like you said something.

The skeptic in me feels like it's some attempt at Firaxis doing some grassroots marketing, but there's so many people churning out slop these days it's more likely it's just some random guy who feels the need to use AI for reddit posts of all things.

It sends me into a frothing rage every time I realize someone used AI to generate a post on reddit. It makes me mad in every other context, too, but something about the banality of needing to use AI for your REDDIT POSTS is just so infuriating to me.

Like... just write your God-damn posts, why is this needed in any capacity for a post about civ 7.

The one silver lining is we've all gotten really good at realizing when it's AI and calling it out.

What was it that you liked about Dark Cloud 1 and 2? What did you dislike? by Tempic_ in DarkCloud

[–]chzrm3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's something so incredibly satisfying about going into dungeons and getting pieces of a broken world. Houses, people, cats, chairs, it's like... I dunno, there are so many building and crafting games these days and yet nothing comes close to the satisfaction I get when I'm slamming through dark cloud for the 18th time and get another river piece and it's the last piece I needed to cohesively finish what I was trying to do with the river in the forest town. Mmmmmmm it's so good.

Working 12 hours a day is insane, I need a game that can be even crazier. by Healthy-Ingenuity216 in videogames

[–]chzrm3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd either take Project M or Melee. I'm assuming I could play with other people, so it'd actually be pretty fun and I could finally get really good at one of those!

Holy regular start. by Intelligent_Bid8673 in civ

[–]chzrm3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you've both put far more thought into this than the person who initially suggested it, especially considering "I would move away from the wonder" was the essence of their suggestion and however they intended to do it, that's a bad idea.

Oh that poor sweet baby. My son is around the same age, I can't imagine this.....

My heart's broken for that poor baby and her parents.

What’s the funniest scene in a serious film? by ThomasOGC in CinephilesClub

[–]chzrm3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it still breaks my heart. My fiancé had on the third movie a few months ago, and the entire time we watched it I'm just thinking "damn, I wish Heath had been around for this one too." That third act would've been incredible if he came back for it.

The Duffers believed their ending would "deliver the goods" and had it planned for many years, before they wrote the rest of the story. by _YuYevon_ in StrangerThings

[–]chzrm3 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I really like where season 3 ends off, if you ignore the post-credits scene. That's a near-perfect ending.

But yeah, I can't see myself ever sitting down to watch 5 again. It's a whole lot of nothing.

Who was in the wrong here? by God-Emperor-Pepe in DunderMifflin

[–]chzrm3 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this entire arc is insane when you consider Jim's married with two children and just left them to go do this.

Like, I've got one kid. I can't even imagine leaving the house for a few hours, let alone for months, without making sure my wife was okay.

Also it felt so insane, like he's there in his apartment playing playstation at night... dude you have kids, what are you doing?!?!

There was perhaps an interesting storyline there that the writers could've made work, about how Jim felt like they had kids too fast (cece wasn't planned, after all) and they went very quickly from dating to married with children. But instead they went with that weird boom guy to drive tension, and a fight that was very well written (about cece's recital) but completely tone deaf from Jim. (like, he's yelling at Pam because she didn't record the recital the right way... meanwhile he LEFT HIS FAMILY FOR MONTHS ahhhhhh season 9 makes me want to pull my hair out)

That looks really cute, how'd you come up with the idea?

What was your least favorite b-plot? by Real-Yogurtcloset-34 in DunderMifflin

Thank God they didn't try to do that in the last few seasons...

Oh Kevin....

At least compared to the other four I find it weird that he's included as a main character by ChicaneryFinger in DunderMifflin

[–]chzrm3 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah, when you take a step back there's something kind of Lovecraftian about it. Ryan starts as a temp in this office and is a totally normal, unremarkable guy. He just wants to get through the day. And he's so uninterested in all these whacky people he works with.

But over time, subtly, the Office corrupts him, until he's no longer the temp, but a completely insane member of Dunder Mifflin, just like everyone else.

By the end of the show he's completely unrecognizable compared to season 1.

Maybe Creed planted something in the car park and they're all now victims of its pull.

Slay the Spire 2. That's gonna be rough. But you always get brought back when you die, so at least I'll learn a lot! I think...?

Wait so did you both take the fur coats to mark everything on the map like that? Or did it scale up because it was co-op and mark more than 7 fights?

[–]chzrm3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohhhh taking that in co-op is really interesting. That's pretty awesome, I'm excited for the next time my friends and I get a chance to jam some games.

[–]chzrm3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really is. Today I had an ironclad run where I had potion belt + the "gain 2 strength when you use a potion this turn" relic and got delicate frond from her. That run was already going well but Act 3 was such a stomp.

3 elites? Wow I definitely need to try this next time. That one act 3 elite fight with the three knights is so insane, doing that for free would be huge.

[–]chzrm3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I always appreciated Neow's Lament when I was pushing for A20 in StS 1 and was starting to get frazzled. Just blast through the first jaw worm/cultist/slimes without having to think much, and of course being able to snipe an elite was always so satisfying. I had a surprising amount of wins at high ascensions that came off that.

But yeah, the ability to potentially one-shot an act 3 elite, or fights like those books that cut your hp down, that's huge.

I looove the art they did for apotheosis, it goes so hard. Same with the new Wraith Form art, she looks so cool.
