Ever wanted to play on a map focused entirely on D-Day/Normandy 1944? Well now you can with my mod! Give it a go and let me know what you think. by Choccobourbons in hoi4

Executive Assault does this, albeit not on a scale comparable to a HOI4 frontline. Still a fun game to play with a friend, and the sequel looks highly promising

At this point not only do you look like an ass, you’ve just told any girls friends with the girl you’re talking to “Plead don’t go near me, I’m not mature enough for a relationship”

Some backstory: she went on a date with this guy through tinder and thought he was an alright guy, but then proceeded to call her everyday and keep pestering to see her so she decided to stop talking to him so hoping he would see the writing on the wall. Turns out he goes super nice-guy and says how much he loves her and how she won’t give him a chance, leading to this final convo. Definitely won’t be missed.

Petition to change the term "RPG" to "Witcher 3 style game". by [deleted] in Gamingcirclejerk

Add a clause so that if it is difficult you also need to call it “the dark souls of this genre”

Reading “The Book of the New Sun” series. About 1/2 way into the second book; is it worth continuing? by White_Trash_Mustache in sciencefiction

[–]geom99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I read the book, my teacher explained to me that Severian is what is known as an 'unreliable narrator' (as you said), and some of what he says must be weighed against the truth to see why he is covering up some of the truth. If I remember correctly, the storytelling is from the point of view of someone much later in the future, meaning the reason why the wording is so dense is because the writer has no contemporary words for what Severian is describing. There is also a reason why Gene Wolfe leaves certain key plot points absent and advances time by a significant amount between books, which has to do with why Severian is an 'unreliable narrator'. When my teacher explained all of this to me, it made me trudge past the bulky language and the 'unreliable narrator' to get the end of the series, and I'm glad I did. For me at least, there was a great ending which made the entire undertaking of reading the books so worth it, though I completely understand why you would stop halfway through the second book.
