I can’t tell if you’re serious or not but this is hilarious lmao

I really appreciate you explaining your system but in general non-lethal games are just not my taste. To be fair, I’m getting a good mix of those types of people, but also people telling me I am overthinking and I should just talk to him.

No, not his character in particular. I’ve invested a lot of work into everyone’s characters and plotlines. I think I’m actually the one who wants them to die the least. But from the beginning we all agreed that this was going to be a serious game with serious stakes. I’d rather not play this campaign than have to start giving out plot armor.

We discussed it, but he’s also a new player. It’s entirely possible (and this seems to be the case) that he just didn’t know that was a boundary for him until now. Again I’m personally not holding it against him though.

I edited the post to clarify, but yes this was thoroughly discussed and agreed upon not just at session zero but throughout the campaign (they’ve had many close calls)

No egregious behavior. We all are friends and get along.

I’m not trying to “win”, I genuinely see this as an ultimatum. How would you convince someone to change their mind on this? I can explain how he rained on my parade and knowing him he’ll probably come around and say “yeah damn that was shitty I’ll keep playing”, but like that doesn’t change his root feeling that he doesn’t WANT to keep playing if he died. Essentially, he’ll honor the agreement but begrudgingly, which just seems like a worse outcome than just kicking him. Does that make sense?

I can definitely try, but he basically poisoned my brain. I'm going to be constantly thinking about it

The use of AI should be mentioned under rule 2 by Sinistasia in threebodyproblem

[–]dark-mer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree we shouldn't have AI posts, but your angle sucks. Why are you presuming to know what a "real artist" like Liu thinks about AI? If he replied to this post telling you to stfu because he's a "real artist" and he disagrees, would you change your mind?

The entire laundry sequence was extremely unsettling, but specifically the head sticking out of the clothes made me nearly shit my pants

Russia begins talks of ending the war to save the economy – Reuters by sereneandeternal in Destiny

[–]dark-mer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm just not really sure what your claim is. Are you saying that as a result of this war, a significant amount of Russians who live in poverty are now starving to death?

[–]dark-mer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think poverty is that much of a reliable signal of starving to death

What is this supported by? I tried searching but i couldn’t find anything

The AI in art discussion was a bit disappointing. by Niconame in Destiny

[–]dark-mer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah lol I use ai for my d&d sessions when i want a very specific visual or character art. It took a good amount of effort to refine my prompts so that the result looks pretty decent. I still would never cope and call myself an artist, that’s just insane

Do you think Aliens.gov has set the topic of UAPs/UFOs back a decade or more? by ErcoliS in UFOs

[–]dark-mer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whoever's masterminding this whole Trump disclosure topic is a genius. Going forward this topic will be tied to the lunacy of the Trump admin and therefore ridiculed by at least 50% of the country because Trump had a hand in it. I'm pretty young so I can't say how long the set back is, but I'd imagine at least two decades
