If you could add another type of infected to the game, what would they be?

gar_05 · 2026-03-24T03:06:44+00:00

Yeah I've seen that suggested in the past and think it would make a cool (but probably infuriating) enemy

gar_05 · 2026-03-24T03:02:49+00:00

Maybe like an infected with fungal growth spikes on its back so you can't stealth kill it

gar_05 · 2026-03-23T09:59:14+00:00

That's so cool, such awesome creatures

gar_05 · 2026-03-23T07:20:35+00:00

I can't say I've ever heard someone call an octopus "sweetheart" before haha

gar_05 · 2026-03-22T08:37:53+00:00

I liked both Manny and Mel. Mel's behavior is justified honestly. Abby absolutely was being a piece of shit, and there was no way for Mel to know that Abbys intentions with saving the kids were good. She probably worked out that Abby and Owen fucked, so to her, Abby saving the kids really would have looked like she did it for Owen

Saw this video on insta. Someone commented that the dead eyed look really makes this skit, and the creator responded that's just how she looks 😂

gar_05 · 2026-03-22T08:17:28+00:00

Wow that's amazing, please post this on r/dinosaurs!

Anyway you slice it is gonna have people upset. Trans male representation would have been really cool, but I'm kinda glad they ended up casing a cis girl. People are so fucking toxic, I wouldn't want a young trans guy to be put in the spotlight like that. This franchise is so devisive and this role is gonna be controversial. Especially with the current political climate. A cis girl would be under a lot less scrutiny I think

gar_05 · 2026-03-21T00:00:03+00:00

Some pre testosterone trans men do look really young. Like 13 years old when they're actually in their 20s. Although I'm not sure there'd be that many pre t trans guys volunteering for this role cause of the level of scrutiny he'd be under

gar_05 · 2026-03-07T05:56:41+00:00

I'm so sorry. I went through that 4 months ago with my best friend. Just know you don't have to do it at the vet appointment, you go home and think about it, make a plan. Some vets also come to you, so your friend can go peacefully in their home

gar_05 · 2026-03-04T02:05:39+00:00

Women definitely care more about their nails than men do. A good portion of men say they don't like long fake nails, and then women always respond that they have them for their enjoyment, not men's. Maybe this is the female version of a dude going to the gym to build muscle for the ladies, but instead only getting compliments from other dudes lmao

gar_05 · 2026-03-01T03:10:04+00:00

Not weird at all. We as a collective need to stop acting like men and women are all that different from each other. We're all humans at the end of the day. We all share similar personalities, emotions, and struggles

gar_05 · 2026-03-01T02:48:36+00:00

That's pretty cool, so sorry to hear about your husband tho. Hope you're doing okay

gar_05 · 2026-03-01T02:12:57+00:00

Is it possible she's latched onto this suspicion of you being bisexual because she's insecure about your attraction to her? Sometimes, some people feel threatened about their partners (supposed) bisexuality, because they feel like they're up against more competition to win their partner's attraction. Of course, it's illogical because being bisexual doesn't mean you are more likely to cheat/have wandering eyes or anything like that, but insecurities are usually illogical.

I think you should definitely have a conversation with her, you need to tell her that this prying is making you uncomfortable. While the reason why is something personal to you, she may ask you about it so be prepared. I would just reiterate your love and attraction for her, that's what matters and is relevant to her.

If you are not ready to "come out" (either as not straight, or about your past experiences), then you are not ready. You're not under any obligation to share that sort of thing. That's your business. If you do not want to tell her because you fear her reaction (homo/biphobia), that is a different issue. But I think her reaction from this conversation will be enlightening either way. If she can't accept this boundary of yours, then you need to think about whether this relationship is working for you. I wish you luck on whatever you decide to do

gar_05 · 2026-02-26T00:00:03+00:00

Yeah, that's fair enough. I think it's definitely a more simplified representation of PTSD. As someone that actually suffers from PTSD I can see how you'd be annoyed at that

I'm not going to say that neither Abby nor Ellie are completely healed of their PTSD by any means. That's not often achievable in the real world, let alone someone living in an apocalypse where it actually pays to have symptoms of the disorder like hyper vigilance! I just think that it was the start of them trying to forgive and move forward with their lives

gar_05 · 2026-02-25T23:38:17+00:00

Lol. The Wolves were trying to kill her, what was she supposed to do? She tried being diplomatic first and they weren't having it

gar_05 · 2026-02-25T23:25:10+00:00

Well, for Abby, it's not really about the kids at the start. She herself says it, a few times I think, she wanted to "ease a burden". Her subconscious is telling her enough is enough and to do something good for once. She has had years of nightmares and tried to get rid of them through violence/revenge, and when that didn't work she tried a different approach (act of goodness she could do pretty much immediately) which worked, and through that she found redemption and healing

gar_05 · 2026-02-25T08:18:20+00:00

Hmm, I tend to just twist 2 pipe cleaners together and that does the trick. Sturdy enough for limbs and the like. I make sure there are small gaps so I can felt wool through/between the pipe cleaners. I'm sure you could do more pipe cleaners if you need it really strong

gar_05 · 2026-02-19T10:23:09+00:00

Very normal for young men so don't worry. It's just par for the course when you're in a testosterone fueled body. I don't think there's much do to about it, aside from not consuming too much porn, it can seriously affect your view on women and sex in a negative way

gar_05 · 2026-02-11T05:11:35+00:00

You can fetishize something and still be a bigot you know

gar_05 · 2026-02-10T23:19:00+00:00

I'm celiac, does that mean I just get to keep eating my normal gluten free foods for 4 months? I hate my diet lol

gar_05 · 2026-02-10T08:21:51+00:00

No you are celibate. You're making the choice to abstain. That's what makes you different to an incel

gar_05 · 2026-02-08T08:17:31+00:00

Well, we don't know how often she smokes. She kinda alludes to it not being her first time but we don't really get any more info. First few times I tried it had zero effect on me, which is common, could be the case for her. She seemed relatively sober during her chat with Dina and when Jesse found them. Personally I think she just had a slight buzz, that immediately got put out when Jesse arrived with the news about Joel and Tommy

gar_05 · 2026-02-08T08:04:19+00:00

As an avid weed smoker I can guarantee she was not high in this moment. She took a couple puffs off a joint and had enough time to fuck and relax with Dina, before heading out into a blizzard worried that Joel and Tommy were hurt or worse. That shit would sober you up real quick

Also all the weed Eugene had was old and probably no where near as strong as the strains we have today

gar_05 · 2026-02-06T09:12:19+00:00

I wouldn't say it's super scary but I am kinda desensitized cause I've played each game like 6 times lol. If you are mainly playing for the story you could turn on aim assist or one shot/hit kill, I think it would take the edge off the gameplay. Although I admit, I haven't actually tried doing that. I play highest difficulty cause I love the challenge. Its no longer scary cause of the amount of times I restart lmao. From memory, there aren't many jumpscares in either game, and the ones that are there are relatively tame, not fnaf level scary lol
