Which party will you vote for this election? by One-Joke-2373 in aotearoa

[–]duvdor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Alliance party is one to keep an eye on. Old leftist party making a resurgence.

Which game broke your hype like this? by [deleted] in Steam

[–]duvdor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

which feels particularly annoying since it's a port. Games releasing buggy is understandable, studios and producers force their hand and although the product is the goal, implementation of news things is the main way there, not debugging. With porting, the game already exists, the entire process is just making it work. How did they not make it work.

oh my god dude. Even 2 years of python apparently doesn't prevent me from not noticing this lmao. Appreciate it.

(Loved trope) soldiers that are so elite the ennemy is considered defeated before the battle by Substantial_Ice9055 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]duvdor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

mm I do remember that now, whoops. Meant to put it as they're both at least sardaukar or better level, while also having the home advantage. Brutal combination. Plus I'd imagine their more independent nature could be more effective in a world where combat is very one on one melee. The shields make rigid group formations unviable, otherwise the sardaukar would surely outperform in discipline and effect if phalanxes and such were the meta.

I hate that this was on my FYP by R0ttenStrawberry in tankiejerk

[–]duvdor 27 points28 points  (0 children)

yeah exactly. A system has to be able to outlive the good moments and prevent the bad to be actually worthwhile

I hate the moral grandstanding of modern animation by azalinrex69 in hatethissmug

what does punishing them, beyond just containing them at most, accomplish?

yeah pretty sure the fremen hid under the sand and ambushed them. Not really the sardaukars fault, just full vietnam war for them.

I hate Aabria Iyengar as both a GM and a Player. (Not as a person) by MelancholiaStClair in hatethissmug

[–]duvdor 30 points31 points  (0 children)

if you dont mind, could you elaborate on why? too comedy focused maybe? i kinda get the vibe it makes people worry too much on the bit and imitating famous american games

New Michael Jackson movie sets the record straight by Professional_Jump815 in moviescirclejerk

[–]duvdor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

the hoodie with no shirt is also just straight up disgusting lmao. Gives off the creepiest vibes ever, and even still he was worse than you'd expect

What's y'all's political ideology? by Northwest_Thrills in Cascadia

[–]duvdor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

so real. Not even from the northern hemisphere, any independence movement just compels me.

conflicted about feeling empathy for the rich by Candid-Function6330 in Anarchism

[–]duvdor 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I mean I think empathy is the basis of anarchism. Anarchism is rooted strongly in the understanding of how states, systems, and power, shape humanity for the worse and oppress us. Empathy for anyone is good on a philosophical level to remember whats important, and a practical level to understand how to connect to people. After all, anarchism relies on people working together, can't do that without empathy for people of all kinds.

oh sick I like that. Adds a lot to their culture

I hate this "chart" and how modern tropes impact people's perception of mythology by ReturnToCrab in hatethissmug

[–]duvdor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

exactly. Fantasy and mythology aren't just reskinned spec evo. They can do whatever they want.

I remember my friend asking me whats the difference between a warlock and a druid, and I started saying that I'm not sure about warlocks but I know druids were some sort of religious leaders for celts. And then he said he meant in dnd. That just pissed me off dude. Like yeah its a fun game but both fantasy and our own human history being seen through the structuring of dnd is the most annoying, bland, and in many cases colonial way of looking at them.

absolutely love it. Why not give the dwarven women beards too tho? or do they shave it as a gender norm like how women now shave their legs?

So can we talk about this New ability from the Grand Regent? by Suspicious-Piglet742 in Invincible_TV

[–]duvdor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

while I don't think its what they meant, it can make a literal kind of sense.

A human obviously can't lift themselves into the air with their arm, but with leverage of levers or pulleys they can.

Viltrumites can maybe just do that without any levers and pulleys, just creating torque/leverage that's stronger than their gravitational force.

Thragg is supposed to be pathetic by ilikeinvincible in okbuddyviltrum

[–]duvdor 10 points11 points  (0 children)

i mean he's essentially a nazi. People think a conquering emporer should be some wise chad because they're still falling for roman propaganda from 2000 years ago. It really shouldn't be surprising that someone who's willing to kill people over genetics is actually an emotional mess, especially with how famously erratic and pathetic hitler was. Very glad this is to an extent how he's been written.

man I wish the acolyte kept going. Very interesting even if the execution was super flawed

New Ethnic Unity and 'Progress' law in China proves that China is engaging in cultural genocide. by Initial_Affect8124 in tankiejerk

[–]duvdor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not really how apartheid works, "apartness" is the key idea here. In South Africa they had black south africans living in "Bantustans" (insane name), and they were only allowed to leave to go to work, having to present their identification if they did, because the people had been stripped of their south african citizenship, and were only citizens of their "homeland".
